Is this satire? WTF did I just watch.

 

[Zantetsuken]

Palin's incoherent rant was like some stream of consciousness slam poetry.

"Stepping stones..." *crowd snaps fingers*

#CheckmateWarren

time for Warren to retire from political life. RiP

 

[Kurdel]

Can someone tell me if Sarah Palin is being sarcastic here? Poe's law.

She is considered funny and aloof from her base, so these are serious jokes. Trying to find the humour in liberal defending fast food made her take a detour through pergatory, but hey, it's not like she has writers, right? The more I think of it, maybe she winged it, because she flounders a lot.

I think something like "After wanting to raise all our taxes, liberals now demanding a raise for fast food workers. I swear if a liberal ever went to Macdonalds, they would know 7.50 an hour is enough for a full meal there, not just one Starbuck cofee!"

At the end she starts saying that min wage is a stepping stone, so she was transfering to real republican ideals.

I like the idea that Sarah Palin has just fucking lost it, and now she's sitting in a rocking chair on her porch, stroking a gun, staring at Russia, just stuttering "Ve...VEGANS. Something about... purgatory. They don't care about fast...wages... VEGANS!"

This is very similar to what I imagine SP doing right now in my head except she occasionally shouts "Wolverines!" like a tourettes patient.

 

[Ape]

She's a reality TV personality, of course she isn't going to say anything substantial. Sarah Palin has been exposed time and time again. Still, with that being said, I wasn't expecting her to ramble on like that.

 

[Burt]

Yeah, first time I saw this I was almost completely sure that it was an impersonator. Had to have been a teleprompter malfunction or something, and that would've excused pretty much anything that came out of her mouth as long as it was in the form of complete sentences. This sounded more like two parrots fighting over the mic that talks into her earpiece though.

 

[jay]

She raises some good points that posters are too afraid to address.

 

[heliconsoul]

You Americans have second to none the best politicians. Sweet Jesus.

(We do have Boris Johnson however)

 

[teruterubozu]

are you afraid too?

 

[Shaffield]

low minimum wages for fast food employees is all part of PETAs secret agenda to force Americans into vegetarianism

wake up people, fight for your freedom, support chik fil a

 

[jett]

LOL. Anyone that watches the "Sarah Palin channel" must be suffering from some form of mental retardation.

 

[QuicheFontaine]

At least he knows, and can say, words though.

I do think a HIGNFY hosted by Palin would be pretty funny, but I think you'd see the panelists visibly age due to how many takes she'd require to read the autocue.

 

[Pete Rock]

"Sarah, baby, I'm your publicist. You hire me for reasons like this. Now you've had too many vicodin to shoot a promo right now, and you need to take a moment and think this through. Now I'm going to go make a phone call in the hallway and leave you in here with this camcorder from 2001 and a macbook. Don't do anything silly while I'm out, okay?"

Absolutely, yes. This woman sounds and appears to be in a pharmaceutical opiate haze. Then again I would presume most of her audience is operating in a similar wavelength, so definitely playing to the base here.

They are probably the type who pay for their pills with Medicare/Medicaid/Social Security and then complain about the government interfering with their lives.

 

[diamount]

So, I'm really thinking Mccain fucked her to be considered VP, this is something special.

 

[ebullientprism]

It still bums me out she didnt become the Veep of USA. It could have been hilarious.

 

[electroshockwave]

It's really like something Charlie from Always Sunny would come out with.

 

[Rocket Scientist]

I don't know anymore.

 

[TatteredHat]

Well, that certainly was something.

 

[Vincent Alexander]

I can't handle it anymore. I have to watch.

...

...

What the fuck did I just watch?

 

[TheLaughingStock]

This person was almost Vice President of the United States.. actually you know what?

sounds about right.

John McCain's team allowed him to pick her as his running mate. It's amazing that he still has a career in politics.

 

[Gaz_RB]

lololol holy shit

 

[Gouty]

Jesus Christ, sick burn!

Make her president of Mars.


No seriously, send her to Mars.

Fuck that I don't want her in charge of those rocks.

 

[Furyous]

She raises some good points that posters are too afraid to address.

What points did she raise that posters are afraid to address?

 

[Darkgran]

I blame McCain for this.

 

[Gaz_RB]

What points did she raise that posters are afraid to address?

I really don't think he's being serious.

 

[Mollymauk]

Best headline about this:

"Palin starts imaginary argument with Warren, loses."

 

[Odoul]

Was she high?

That was actually kind of uncomfortable.

 

[jay]

What points did she raise that posters are afraid to address?

If you are all then vegans why do you want McDonalds in minimum wage to sell to the people who want to buy and murder food for animals for?

 

[McLovin]

I loaded up that video using up the last few mb before I went over the data cap. Of course you guys were being sarcastic, goddammit.

 

[brotherbean]

I feel sort of bad for her, and that makes me mildly uncomfortable.

 

[PsychBat!]

GIFS illustrating what the hell she said:

 

[forms]

That was incredibly embarrassing to watch.

 

[EscoBlades]

Whatever you say OP...

 

[Dyno]

I thought I was watching a Tina Fey sketch, but I guess I was wrong.

Man I had that disconnect too! I'm hearing what she's saying and I'm thinking "nah this ain't real - who's playing Palin? She nailed it it." No it's really her being too stupid for this world.

 

[GitarooMan]

So I finally watched this, and I have to say it exceeded expectations. Is this for sure unedited, like this happened in real time? It's almost hard to believe.

 

[UltraMagnanimous]

hahahaahahahaha

Sigh.

I love Tina Fey. Is this a new series?

 

[Ape]

The more I watch it the less it makes sense. That's incredible in itself.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

LOL. Anyone that watches the "Sarah Palin channel" must be suffering from some form of mental retardation.

Come on man, this kind of comedy rarely comes by.

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

That's a hot mess.

 

[Neuromancer]

You have to admit, she makes some valid points.

 

[demon]

So I was finally able to watch it.


I'm confuse

 

[Karsticles]

So, I'm really thinking Mccain fucked her to be considered VP, this is something special.

John McCain's team allowed him to pick her as his running mate. It's amazing that he still has a career in politics.

To be fair to McCain, she had the highest approval rating among governors at the time, and was a woman to boot. In MI politics, everyone was talking about her as a choice before she got picked. It was considered a solid option. No one knew how dumb she was. That stuff is hard to evaluate.

 

[Kathian]

Am really quite worried she was talking to someone no one else could hear.

 

[nilbog21]

what the fuck is this real ???

 

[vikki]

Palin does raise some interesting questions. Are fast food workers vegans because they can't afford meat or is it a personal decision?

 

[Plywood]

#rekt

 

[Averon]

Why is Palin going on about purgatory?

What does purgatory have to do with anything about the minimum wage or fast food workers or Warren?
