Tina Fey Can't Take a McCain-Palin Win

2008_10_tfsp.jpgTina 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!"

    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.

    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

  • babyhitler

    #33- the truly poor don't even fucking vote. they are too busy being poor and looking for discarded candy wrappers and crack.

  • ma bell

    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.

  • babyhitler

    #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.

  • robingee

    Why do republicans read this blog?

  • ma bell

    ^ 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

  • babyhitler

    I wonder which tier of Republican Ides of March is? top or bottom?

  • hungryghoast

    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.

  • WorksInDUMBO

    babyhitler for president 2012!

  • huffybike

    I don't want Palin to win, but I will miss moments like this.

  • BotanistPrime

    Tina Fey for president 2012!

  • ma bell

    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.

  • NannyState

    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.

  • Fritzdecat

    I agree with #21 who also agrees with #18

    Good Call

  • yomama

    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!

  • Politburo

    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.

  • tracyedw

    I can't take a McCain Palin win either.

    soopaman, what the hell is that supposed to mean??

  • mdow

    babyhitler, again, i find myself surprisingly in agreement with you. i'm glad you've stopped trolling. or, i'm getting angrier.
