http://wonkette.com/557803/sarah-palin-tina-fey-would-be-nothing-without-meRaise your hand if you need some comic relief right about now. Oh, all of you? Great, us too! Thankfully, our girl Sarah never, ever disappoints. In a Hollywood Reporter story on the history of Saturday Night Live, Sarah Palin shares her thoughts on the crappy tee vee show, and they are just as good as you want them to be.
Which kids braces would those be, Sarah? Oh, all of em, Katie? Although Sarah does have a point. Before she tripped and fell onto the national stage, Tina Whoever was a total nobody, who had definitely NOT become a performer and then head writer on SNL while Sarah was still mayoring the meth capital of Alaska. Good thing Sarah came along when she did (lipstick! ha! we get it!) in 2008 to save Tina Nobodys struggling TV show 29 Pebbles or whatever it was called, who can even remember, it was only on the air for seven years and won 14 dozen awards.
But lets face it, it was only Tina Whatsherfaces portrayal of Sarah Palin that FINALLY gave her some success, even though that portrayal was completely inconsequential, and screw you, SNL, for thinking otherwise.
Yeah! And take that also too also! No one ever cared about that dumb satire for which Tina What. EVER! received the AP Entertainer of the Year award. And her portrayal definitely had no impact whatsoever, even though everyone still remembers Sarah Palin saying I can see Russia from my house, which she did not actually word-for-word say because it was in fact Tina Starts-with-F who said that line, and not Sarah herself, which goes to show just how much it didnt matter. Besides, Sarah full-on showed them by appearing on SNL and allowing herself to be the butt of a joke she did not get. (Pssst. We actually were laughing at you, not with you, honey.)
BRB, going to go die of laughter. Then well happily imagine walking in front of Sarah, pulling a dollar bill on a fishing line, just to see what happens.

Her quicksand is oblivion. She is trying to stay relevant when she has not been for a long time. This is her last gasp.

(70,508 posts)Sarah really is a dim bulb and doesn't know when to not speak because
some of Tina's best "Palin work" was when she just repeated word for
word what Palin had said and it was devastating.

You, Sarah, are an idiot of the highest order.

(23,973 posts)the inevitability of her increasing irrelevance lately is seeing the vision of a black pointy hat on top of wet, black steaming robes slowly melting to a cold stone floor while hearing...
"Ohhh! You cursed brat! Look what you've done! I'm melting! Melting! Oh, what a world! What a world! Who would have thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness! Ohhh! Look out! Look out! I'm going! Ohhhh Ohhhhhhhhhh!"

(62,416 posts)I think Fey winning the Twain Award as about as high a recognition one can get in her profession.
Boobs like Palin are run of the mill idiots.
But Republicans seldom understand humor or satire.
Edit to add: Fey's portrayal that was such great satire used Palin's words and actions which shows what a clown Palin is.

Sarah Palin believes that the world is centered on herself and cannot accept the fact that Tina Fey has a great deal of talent

(735 posts)She is such a dolt, such a complete buffoon, that to call her stupid is an insult to stupid people.
The fact that she is upset over this some six years hence proves she's not only an idiot, she's also a petty, resentful, jealous, shallow, pitiful old fool. (Wait a minute, no wonder McCain picked her...)
May God have mercy on her soul for picking the pockets of the multitude of morons who lap up every vicious and villainous word she utters.

(20,885 posts)... on the Donkey," I noticed that the "booby prize" was usually just a precious as the first prize. And if you adopted a strategy to aim for it, without being obvious, you could go home with a prize from every birthday. (My youthful avarice subsequently diminished when, in taking stock, I realized the prizes had little value. Ethical awakening? Maybe.)
Anyway, I think this is the secret to Sarah's success. I think she has wrested that apple of "victory" right out of Ann Coulter's grasp.
