Palin Speaks

The lovely Tina Fey reprised her role as Sarah Palin in this Saturday Night Live skit.

When I first watched it, I thought they were being a bit cruel - but it turns out that the jibberish speech Fey (as Palin) gives about the economic bailout was actually taken VERBATIM from the real Palin's interview with Couric.



You can CNN discuss the similarities in this short clip...

Thanks for your comment! Definitely made my morning. :)

The irony of your comment is that I am a new earth creationist (and I was homeschooled), however as a politico, I don't think it really effect what I believe politically so I don't really care what others believe about it so long as I'm allowed to believe what I want to. I don't think I turned out so bad, and certainly never was abused. Quite frankly, I see this as no different from the liberal brainwashing of public schools.

As far as a national standard -- we did just fine with local control until the DoEd came along in the 1970s, and since then we have seen a sharp decline in school performance and test scores and whatnot. Coincidence? I think not.
