Tina Fey, whose Sarah Palin impression has been a highlight of the new Saturday Night Live season, told TV Guide that she's having a great time playing the Alaska governor, "Election time is always good for 'SNL' and this is a bonkers election. And that lady is a media star. She is a fascinating person, she's very likeable." But the prospect of cranking out that impression should John McCain win the election prompts Fey to say, "If she wins, I'm done. I can't do that for four years. And by 'I'm done,' I mean I'm leaving Earth." Related: The LA Times wonders if Palin has been wearing her hair down to "thwart" Fey and Michael Musto thinks this Palin-inspired fashion could make you "so sexy you might get pregnant and have to get married whereas your time is much better spent helping take care of your six-month brother with Down Syndrome!"

Oh, please, God, surround their campaign with your tiny angels made of crystal and pay attention to only my prayers. (Pssst! My prayers to God and his crystal angels and magical wish ponies is that Palin and McCain not win this election!)
Oh if they win (I can't imagine that) she will
have plenty of time on the stage with her impersonation ,look what the Letterman clips
of GWB did to his credibility as President.
That's the stuff people who watch TV love.
Who watches TV??
Maybe Tina Fey is, ahem, ruining her reputation because she just mirrors her to perfection. There's barely any change done to all the atrocities Palin commits on her own.
People have a chance to watch what really goes on without the "sound-bite effect" or someone else telling them what to think.
If McCain wins, I'll board the space arc with Tina Fey. Wait for meeeee!
Tina Fey, take me with you :(
Fey should get ready to play Governor and Vice President Palin for a long time to come! There will be a Nov surprise no matter what the polls say, and Palin/McCain will be in the White House for 8 years of prosperity! We need a down to earth hockey mom with traditional family values in the White House so that our families will be safe and secure from the terrorists and illegals.
If republicans win, this country will be IRRELEVANT.
But can republicans even see that? Reckless
if the Dems. win we will be wearing towels on our heads
The Palin hate fest continues unabated.
It's funny how SNL removed a spoof that skewered Democrats from the NBC website. Hollywood celebs announce their hate for Palin one by one and the neo-lib hipsters foam at the mouth.
All of Hollywood is fill with limo riding liberals with no brains, who follow soundbites and flavors of the month like lemmings. We can't let these numbskulls dictate who'll be the next President of the USA! Why would anyone vote for someone endorsed by Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan!?
Stop her! She cannot leave for Canada. Enough of such "brain" drain. Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon & Sean Penn were banished there unceremoniously in 2000, while poor Madonna was forced to live among soccer hooligans around same time. US hasn't been the same since then.
"could make you "so sexy you might get pregnant and have to get married whereas your time is much better spent helping take care of your six-month brother with Down Syndrome!"
Making a joke at the expense of an infant with Downs syndrome for political gain.
Nice.
Must be another one of those compassionate liberals.
#3: Agreed...I don't think Fey's Palin is that funny. It's just too close to the real thing.
#8: They edited out the part of the skit that named some actual people, that old couple who sold their crooked mortgage business to Wachovia for $20 billion. The clip is back up without their names.
Ides Of March: I know you're chomping at the bit to troll the Dems on this blog with every tiny little slight you can find. But speaking as a liberal, Michael Musto is a mincing mealy-mouthed twerp no matter how he pulls his lever.
I really wish both sides would stop using every fringe nutjob that comes along as an example of what's wrong with the opposition. Do I hold all Conservatives responsible for Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin, Michael Savage or their ilk? I can honestly say no. What comes out of their mouths is their responsiblilty, not the party/movement as a whole. In turn, I will thank you not to lump me in with the Mustos and Moores or that godawful Randi Rhodes.
About the only liberal mouthpieces I'll play apologist for are Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow. Because with Keith I want to believe, for all his blind pandering and melodramatic outrage, he really is a lot smarter than the Nega-O'Reilly persona he's crafted. And Rachel is a foxy, foxy lesbian.
the thing about republicans that perplex me is that they have this pyramid with really elite intelligent super rich conservatives on top and these poor dumb redneck motherfuckers on the bottom who hang onto their elitist masters every word if they use keywords like "abortion", "guns", "god" and "gay marriage". Every move the top tier republicans make totally assfucks the bottom republicans but they just keep taking it. all they gotta say is "terrorist" and "drill baby drill" and they lap it up. This is why the republicans are against abortion. They need to program the babies at birth for this kind of inculcated brainwashing cause nobody who wasn't congenitally programmed for this stupidity would bite. and when I say the republicans are against "abortion" it's really against WHITE ABORTION. they could give a fuck about minority babies.
"Ides Of March: I know you're chomping at the bit to troll the Dems on this blog with every tiny little slight you can find."
So, when I express an opinion I'm "trolling" but when people you agree with do, they're are described in more flattering terms no doubt.
I was under the impression we were all engaging in free speech.
BTW: I comment on stories about other things besides politics if you cared to notice. But it's really quite telling how flustered and apoplectic some people get when they encounter a non-liberal point of view. Oh, the horror! Pass the smelling salts! We just preach tolerance, we don't practice it.
And so the level of discourse crawls ever downward, as the topic shifts increasingly towards the perceived slights and double-standards of the self-involved.
tina fey, i'd be your servant for life if you'd be so kind as to take me wherever it is you plan to go.
babyhitler, again, i find myself surprisingly in agreement with you. i'm glad you've stopped trolling. or, i'm getting angrier.
I can't take a McCain Palin win either.
soopaman, what the hell is that supposed to mean??
ides, you know full well that it's not your point of view that people object to. It's the tone of your comments and your tired persecution act.
Babyhitler, I agree with #18. I actually laugh loudly at least once a day reading your post. Humorously poignant without the trolling. I remember too that this wasn't always the case in the past.
Tina Fey for VP!
I agree with #21 who also agrees with #18
Good Call
Just to let these Sarah Palin supporters know: If she does indeed become Vice President, she will have to commute to her work from a fair distance because zoning restrictions in and around Washington D.C. forbid mobile homes, even the more upscale variety with little fake victorian gables.Additionally, while there are no moose anywhere near the capital, other game animals can be found across the bay and in preserves south of D.C. However, hunting permits are scarce and private hunts are extremely expensive and could cut into Trig's therapy budget. In short, total lifestyle crisis for the Republican Cum Ditch.
does tina fey realize that her and snl are actually irrelevant? nobody even watches that show any more due to the fact that...well its just not that funny.
Tina Fey for president 2012!
I don't want Palin to win, but I will miss moments like this.
babyhitler for president 2012!
I wouldn't say Ides of March is trolling... cranky, but not trolling...
But Dude69? yeh, that's a troll... and a dumb/un-subtle one at that.
I wonder which tier of Republican Ides of March is? top or bottom?
^ how hypocritical is that. i mean, considering the poor vote for democrats. go to any city that is poverty stricken and the poor vote for the democrats. go ahead...tell me democrats aren't wealthy...try it
Why do republicans read this blog?
#30- sure there are poor on the democrats side but it isn't a huge pyramid like the republican chasm. Democrats are built more like a trapezoid. Meaning,that the upper democrats aren't that far from the middle and the middle isn't that far from the lower middle. The democrats poor don't even have a large turnout, thank you very much, that's why the republicans have won for the last 8 years. so the republican poor outnumber the democratic poor and they vote more. although I'd re-categorize the republican poor to lower lower middle-class.
i hear ya. yeah that john corzine guy and that george soros guy. i mean those guys are just average run of the mill dudes like me and you. i mean i heard barack obama is just living paycheck to paycheck. yep.
the poor have been voting for democrats for generations...and they're still poor.
and robingee please tell me where i supported the republicans. i just think for myself instead of letting the politicians do my thinking for me.
#33- the truly poor don't even fucking vote. they are too busy being poor and looking for discarded candy wrappers and crack.
ok fair enough. but you still didn't address the absurdity of your previous statement that democrats are only middle class. furthermore, in a study performed by the economist, it was determined that 52% of CEOs in america would call themselves democrat if forced to choose sides. your "trapezoid" theory is just plain asinine. democrats have deep pockets just as the republicans do. trapezoid...ha. that's just a dumb statement
A lot of poor people vote Republican: poor people in Utah, Oklahoma, Kentucky, and anywhere else that you find buy-bull believing idiots in trailer parks who learned to count to "eleventy" by the time they left school in the ninth grade. That's the constituency that Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and a whole host of dumbfuck "personalities" have assiduously manicured over the decades so that their wealth can't be taxed by the liberals who are 'bent on destroying the planet'. To see a creature such as John McCain who once stood against this bullshit eating every scrap of it he can get in order to win his little prize is one of the most disturbing and discouraging spectacles I have ever seen since the days of Nixon. Even W. was never this wretched and lost. To this end, all you Republicans have left to look forward to are more school board elections in Kansas between the fat cow who believes that dinosaurs should be omitted from the Creationist texts and the former insurance agent who thinks that the Gold Standard is a state's rights issue.
angry individuals such as yourself amuse me. waaah...people don't agree with me...waaaahhhh
