JohnBoy, it's cute how you believe any press release you read.

Am I supposed to know what you're talking about? I don't read press releases, so that's the first problem. Do you want to explain what that means? I even went back and re-read my posts, and your comment makes no sense.

Hey John. I like you but get a sense of humor. It was funny. Too bad the rest of the show was so lame.

If anything, that SNL skit helped to improve Palin's image in the minds of Americans. I mean, Tina Fey made her "likable" in a way...something Ms. Palin herself has failed to do.

When did I say it wasn't funny? Why do you all have reading comprehension issues?

I think my favorite part of this is that the Republican ticket can't even get their "position" together on an SNL sketch.

What hope do we have for serious issues, if we can't figure out if they laughed or were offended by Tina Fey?

Seriously.

It's stupefying to think that we have contradictory quotes on the subject.

"Stupefying," Besty. Are you sure that's the word you meant to use?

Wow, that was fast!

Isn't it funny how the woman impersonating Sarah Palin has the last name "Fey"?

And I just heard that the Republican party has called a press conference to bad-mouth Michael Palin for being a man with Sarah's last name. They tried to go after Brett Palin, the hockey player but Sarah said that being a hockey mom, she was cool with it.

Stupefy:

Yep, that's pretty much what they've done to me lately.

Sorry, that was my lame attempt at making a joke, Besty! (You know...how "stupefy" and "stupID" are so close? Hardee-har-har.)

Well, it hasn't made me stupid, but it sure has made THEM stupid.

...and it has dulled my senses.

Okay, maybe they HAVE made me stupid!

Don't worry, I'll snap out of it in plenty of time to vote.

It's a challenge NOT to use the word "stupid" when we're on this subject, isn't it?

For me, it's the phrase "dumb ass" that keeps coming to mind. She's a dumb ass governor, this is a dumb ass campaign, and if this dumb ass pair gets elected than I never again will question if the USA is just a nation of dumb assess, because it will be irrefutable. Unless, of course, you're on the Republican ticket. In that case, you can lie through your dumb ass teeth and continue to lie even when you have the facts in front of you, but you'll still be a lying dumb ass.

I do believe that "dumb ass" and "stupid" are cousins.

Sure McCain has been on SNL, but has he actually watched SNL EVER???

No one is sacred on that show.

wasn't his daughter an intern for SNL? When they interviewed her on the view she said she was and she says she appreciated a good joke. Hey John M this is the definition of sexism

SEXISM- Any attitude, action or institutional structure which systematically subordinated a person or group because of their sex

and here is one for Political Satire
Political satire is usually distinguished from political protest or political dissent, as it does not necessarily carry an agenda nor seek to influence the political process. While occasionally it can, it more commonly aims simply to provide entertainment. By its very nature, it rarely offers a constructive view in itself; when it is used as part of protest or dissent, it tends to simply establish the error of matters rather than provide solutions.

Just because Palin found it hilarious, doesn't mean a McCain advisor can't find it disrespectful.

Of course not, but when you've got someone who wasn't being spoofed calling it "disrespectful" and then Palin saying she thought it was funny, just once again points out the ever-increasing schizophrenia or this campaign and all involved.

I love the way the left is scurrying around like scalded-cats (as my Irish grandmother used to say), over some hockey mom from Alaska! It's funny.

I'm glad you think it's a funny that a bunch of dumb assesses believe with these dumb assess are selling. She's not just some "hockey mom from Alaska." She's the Republican Vice-Presidential candidate.

And I'm not sure what sort of scurrying you're seeing. There are six weeks until the election and more and more crap keeps coming out about this vindictive, unqualified, dumb ass from Alaska. Maybe you're seeing people scurrying to figure out a way to get the hell out of this country before Margaret Atwood's Republic of Gilead is realized.

This is what campaigns do. When SNL started portraying Obama, his campaign complained.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

according to this article, complaints about his portrayal by Armisen came from regular supporters, not directly from someone in his campaign.

"Immediately after that show Mr. Downey said he started hearing from Obama supporters that he was trying to undermine their candidate. Those complaints have only increased in subsequent weeks after two more election sketches have appeared, with Mr. Obama being played by Fred Armisen. That choice has raised a few eyebrows because Mr. Armisen’s ancestry is Venezuelan, German and Japanese but not African-American. Mr. Michaels said he was sensitive to that criticism but said Mr. Armisen simply had the best comic take on the character of Mr. Obama."
