POLITICS: Palin Punk'd

Right before election day, Sarah Palin has reaffirmed my belief that this country needs Obama-Biden. Palin fell victim to a radio show prank when she agreed to speak to the French president, Nicolas Sarkozy. However, to her surprise it wasn't Sarkozy, it was the "Masked Avengers."

This is just a few things the phone conversation touched on:

"The seven-minute conversation touched on topics including politics to hunting by helicopter quoting 'Like we say in French', 'on pourrait tuer des bebe phoques aussi' [translation: We can kill baby seals also], but leaving Dick Cheney behind, as well as Palin's political future. When one of the duo suggested they saw her as President one day, she responded, 'Maybe in eight years.' During the prank, the duo identified Johnny Hallyday as Sarkozy's advisor on American relations, Stef Carse as the Prime Minister of Canada and their Les Cerveaux de l'info co-host Richard Z. Sirois as the 'prime minister' of Quebec. They also referred to the Hustler porn film 'Who's Nailin' Paylin?' as a documentary about Palin, to which the real Palin replied, 'Oh good, thank you.'"



I really hope the nation doesn't elect a politician this ignorant, a politician that thinks it's a good idea to go on SNL to counter its jokes or a politician that would have that phone conversation.

I can't wait to vote tomorrow, a vote against eight more years of stupidity.
