Considering one of them does Survivor, Trump's Apprentice shows, Shark Tank, and The Voice then I doubt there is a lot of love lost for Obama. I think it was deliberate, and very creative, too.
Burnett idolizes Palin and became friends with the Burnett family when he tried to sell the Palin series to TV execs. I know this for a fact as I work in Hollywood and was in the same CBS building in L.A. trying to sell our show to this peon exec and the next room, Sarah Palin and Burnett were in there.
Seriously, the staff wanted Palin’s autograph. Whomever said we may be full of libs are idiots. There’s a large contingent on GOpubbies here and conservatives but we lay low and do our damage within the system.
