A Round of Applause for Tina Fey: She single-handedly Slew Dragon Sarah
Tina Fey was Barack Obama's strongest ally in slaying Dragon Sarah Palin with humor and satire. Now everyone, whenever they think of the Alaska Governor, thinks of a buffoon without experience and not qualified to be VP or president. Sarah's political career is over, thank you Tina

26. All classics...
Loved "Pew Pew Pew" too!

And on that note, one more: "I believe that marriage is a sacred instituation between two unwilling teenagers." :-)

27. My friend said her Romainian husband was walking around
the house repeating "I can see Russia from my house!" in a high-pitched, but Romainian, accent.

I would have paid to see it.

5. Tina Fey dismantled the carefully crafted image of Sarah Palin.
The little things she did were devastating.

The little thing in the interview when she got real cute and started acting like she was shooting with her hands. The "fancy pageant walking." The "good, cuz I practiced a couple of zingers where I call you 'Joe'."

18. Gotta admit, McCain was a hell of a sport to go along with that one
McCain: What's going on over there Sarah? (paraphrased)

"Sarah": Oh nothing, just talking to them about taxes.

Thanks, too, for Amy Poehler and her being such a great foil to Tina's Palin when she portrayed both Katie Couric and Hillary Clinton.
Also when Amy did her hilarious, going down in television history "Palin Rap," just two days before giving birth to her son.

Boy, was Amy huge or what????
k&r
So now I've got to start watching 30 Rock.

22. Now THERE'S a patriot.
:patriot:

The 2-hit combo of "Maaaaaaav'rick" and "I can see Russia from my house" put the nail in the Mcain/Palin coffin.

Thank you, Tina!

28. Freeper types are angry about it, too
The Republican at our poll got mad at us quoting Tina Fey lines, and he repeated some lame joke about "Sarah Palin could put dark eye shadow under her eyes and play Tina Fey". Cause I gues they think "their Sarah" gets more sleep than Tina Fey. Or something. But man, the ones who like Sarah do NOT like Tina Fey!!!

29. Freepers at my poll loved Tina Fey
But they may not have been Palin fans. I don't know. Some people voted for McCain even if they didn't like Palin. (I find that strange because McCain is old and had serious cancer).
