The Real Sarah Palin Laughs Along With Tina Fey's Impression (Sarah Laughs At SNL Skit Alert)
CBS News ^ | 9/14/2008 | Scott Conroy

Posted on 09/14/2008 6:35:34 PM PDT by goldstategop

The true extent to which Palin-mania has come to dominate the TV news cycle hit home for me last night as I flipped through the channels on the Palin campaign’s charter flight from Reno to Denver. Within a period of about a half hour, I caught the much-anticipated debut of Tina Fey as Sarah Palin on “Saturday Night,” as well as seperate Palin documentaries on MSNBC and CNN.

Tina Fey was such a dead ringer for Palin that I was tempted to open the curtains that separate the governor and her staff from the media to make sure she was still on the plane and hadn’t managed to sneak off to Manhattan to appear live on the show.

One of the more biting pieces of satire came at the beginning of the sketch when Amy Poehler’s rendition of Hillary Clinton standing beside Palin said, "I believe that diplomacy should be the cornerstone of any foreign policy.”

"And I can see Russia from my house,” Fey as Palin replied.

According to her spokesperson Tracey Schmitt, the real Sarah Palin had a good laugh along with the press corps in the back of the plane and millions of Americans at home.

“She thought it was quite funny, particularly because she once dressed up as Tina Fey for Halloween,” Schmitt said.

Touche, Palin on Tina Fey

The crazed lefty women like Talyor Marsh let Palin’s remark fly right over their so-called intellgence.

Tina Fey, when you use humor make sure the humor has some semblence to a gaffe. Sure it was humor but alot of the times the humor back fires. You can see Russia from Alaska.

Moreover, when one laughs, sometimes they get the last laugh.

Case in point when Palin said: “She thought it was quite funny, particularly because she once dressed up as Tina Fey for Halloween,”

Touche Sarah, touche. Well done. It went right over the talking left’s heads.

“It’s about mothers-in-law and the F word.”

see my reply to Missy - the IL doesn’t stand for
In-Law. The whole acronym started about “hot mothers”, if you will. Other people’s mothers.

About the trouble getting onto FR - I KNOW - second time I had the same “withdrawal pains” on a Sunday evening for a few hours. If you find out more (or Jim Rob - give us a bulletin!!) let me know. I just assumed it was server problems or maintenance.

“I am using beta right now and am very happy. I was having serious with-drawls without FR and am happy to get on here with the beta version.”

Clue me in on the Beta Version thing - I knew nothing about that!!

It refers to the older women in the country club bar, dressed in cougar and leopard print tops, that prey on young guys.

“I’ve had serious FR withdrawals for hours and saw the beta link version to here on the Yahoo group.”

Let me know more about this, please! I’m not on yahoo, mostly just AOL. Thanks so much.

It was really funny and well done. However, they pretty much use humor to make the DNC’s point of Sarah’s lack of experience. As mentioned before, they attacked her for the rest of the show. I don’t think we should help promote SNL. They are obviously in the bank with Barack now that Hillary has been defeated.

obambi was a no show and IT SHOWED. He got left with two black eyes after that SNL show.
Not really. His deferring due to a hurricane was along the same lines as the RNC deferring.

We have plenty of real, valid criticisms of Øbama to diminish our arguments with trumped-up stuff.

Thanks for the info. I guess, LOL! I guess MILF is a bass-ackward compliments of sorts, but pretty disgusting in my book.

I do wonder what is going on. John Robinson usually posts something at the Yahoo group when updates are taking place and folks are having serious withdrawals. I just hope things are straightened out soon with the election so near. I’ll be hitting my forehead on the keyboard if there is no access November 4th. I love this place!

“I saw that and was cracking up. Can someone please tell me what a MILF is? I have no idea what it could mean.”

I asked the same question a couple of days ago on a FR thread. So don’t feel bad. There are other FREEPERS as internet unhip as you. Me. John McCain and others. It starts with “Mother’s I’d Like to . . .” Fill in the rest with your imagination.

Now that you are internet hip like me. Does that mean we have to vote for obama?

I've never been a fan of SNL since the 1980’s. I can count the number of times I watched it on one hand since the original cast left. OK, OK, part of it is I'm getting older and enjoy my sleep more than a late nigh laugh. But also it was just not as funny as it use to be. This was the first timed I have watched it in a long long time. The skit was hilarious. But the rest of the show reminded me why I don't watch the show. Ir was awful. That skit with the home schoolers (Barf)

Here you go:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/freerepublic2/

I’ve not found the site easy to navigate, plus some spammer hooked onto my e-mail through the site. I’d suggest not joining but just reading the posts. When FR is down it helps a bit to know what is going on. User beware.

LOL - another education needed here? :-))))

Granted, I don’t know how “They” came up with this term (Cougars), but it means older women who really like younger men - think it first came about with the Demi Moore/Ashton Kutcher pairing years ago. And it’s been around ever since.

“Was afraid Biden would step down and I’d miss it.”

We need to be more afraid if Biden WOULD step down. At least now we have a chance - if the above were to happen and Hillary replaced him ——————then, not so much.

yeah - supposedly, his excuse was the “hurricane crisis” and that he had to go there to “help”.

major barf.
