Default SNL pokes fun with Fey as Palin



FABULOUS on both accounts!

I love Hillary screaming "MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I also love the "and I can see Russia from my house!"

"I invite the media to grow a pair. And if you can't I will lend you mine." A couple of times it was like I was really watching Palin there.

Her Hillary just is not believable. And why do these pseudo-feminists insist on a testicle-centric conception of fortitude? They did the same thing with the primary season's famous "b*tch is the new black" skit. . .

I am unsure if the SNL skit was written by feminists of any kind.

In any event, the concept of "having the balls" to do something is a common one and it is commonly used in conection with a strong woman, like Hillary Clinton, esp. in the staging of humor. So, I kind of do not get your point.

But, I agree, her Hillary is not that great in the looking like Hillary dept., though she is funny as her. As for Fey, she does a better Palin than Palin.

SNL TRYING to be funny? Yeah right...The only way SNL will ever be funny to me is when it is cancelled! Now THAT will be hilarious.

Holy crap, yes. Thanks for posting this! On looks alone, she could have done a very passable job, but she's got the accent and the annoying tenor of her voice down pat. Tina Fey is my new hero.

Brilliant! "I can see Russia from my house" is frickin' hilarious. I also love Poehler/Hillary's comment about borrowing her balls.

Funniest part of the show - the rest of the episode sucked, unfortunately. My fave line was Fey/Palin saying that global warming is "just God hugging us closer."

This is the funniest thing I've seen in a really, REALLY long time.
"I don't agree with the Bush Doctrine." "..And I don't know what that is!" Genius!

As for Michael Phelps...oh, God bless him, but the man is not an actor, haha

Yeah, SNL always has their videos pulled from YouTube.
