You betcha: Sarah Palin to do Saturday Night Live
Filed under: Late Night, Saturday Night Live, Celebrities, Reality-FreeAfter a few weeks of rumors, denials, and "will she or won't she" talk, it looks like Governor Sarah Palin is finally set to appear on NBC's Saturday Night Live. The Alaskan Governor and VP candidate will appear on the October 25 episode, according to Cindy Adams at The New York Post. If that wasn't exciting enough, this is the same episode that Jon Hamm will host, so I bet we can look forward to a Mad Men parody. Wouldn't it be great i

LETTERMAN BLASTS MCCAIN FOR BEING “SQUIRRELY,” SAYS: “I JUST DON’T KNOW IF WE CAN TRUST HIM”
In what must be Round 6 or 7 for David Letterman by now, last night he absolutely lit into John McCain, this time calling him, QUOTE, “squirrely,” which is just another way of saying that he’s “erratic.” You may have heard that John McCain now wants to go back on Letterman’s show, after previously having stood him up for Katie Couric on the day he fake-suspended his campaign. Much like Sarah Palin now wanting to go on SNL, McCain recognizes that Letterman may not stop t

Sarah Palin will appear on SNL as herself
The internet has been buzzing with speculation that Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin may show up in a skit on Saturday Night Live. The Alaska governor, who is rapidly becoming what John McCain hates the most- a “celebrity”- has breathed new life into the venerable sketch show, thanks to the spot-on impersonation of her by SNL alum Tina Fey. Palin has been scheduled to appear on the Oct. 25th broadcast, playing herself, and not Fey as some outlets were reporting. SOCCER moms and Joe Sixpacks,

ONE VIDEO TO RULE ALL THE OTHERS
Yep, Obama saw it coming, right down the line. So the answer to that question is “Yes,” the Republicans have been this predictable. It’s also called knowing your enemy’s move before they do. But what people may not remember is that when Obama gave this speech, back in July, in which he basically laid out the [...]

Betty White On Sarah Palin: 'That Is One Crazy Bitch!' [Defamer Decides 2008]
newVideoPlayer("/bettywhite_def.flv", undefined, NaN,""); Are we sick of Sarah Palin jokes yet? Yes—yes we do believe we are, yet not since Brokeback Mountain has a single cultural phenomenon offered comedy writers (and ankle-shackled galley bloggers) such a bounty of low-hanging fruit.And—much like the gay-cowboy motif into its third month of YouTube mashups—just when you think you've snorted out your last nose-chuckle at the congenial flautist's antics, along comes one more to tickle yo

Saturday Night Live Thursday Update: Lame W/Out Tina or Sarah
SNL's Weekend Update moved to a new spot in lieu of the upcoming elections, and last night marked the first time the precursor to The Daily Show featured a mid-week special, hosted by Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler. Was it funny? Meh. Was Bill Murray there? Ye-op:   Blurgh. Without Tina Fey doing her Sarah Palin impression, this segment really lags. Couldn't the second presidential debate included an aside from each of the VP candidates? Then SNL would be able to do the only thing they know

NOW THEY’RE GETTING IT
John McCain: If your campaign does not stop equating Sen. Barack Obama with terrorism, questioning his patriotism and portraying Mr. Obama as “not one of us,” I accuse you of deliberately feeding the most unhinged elements of our society the red meat of hate, and therefore of potentially instigating violence. At a Sarah Palin rally, someone called out, “Kill him!” At one of your rallies, someone called out, “Terrorist!” Neither was answered or denounced by you or your r

'SNL' spoofs second debate
Tina Fey didn't play Sarah Palin. And Sarah Palin didn't spoof Tina Fey. But last night's Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update Thursday did feature Fred Armisen as Barack Obama and Darrell Hammond as John McCain, along with Chris Parnell playing a very time-conscious Tom Brokaw, in a take-off of Tuesday's presidential debate (clip below). Among the funniest moments had to be McCain referring to Obama as "this character here," and "Junior over there," and "pee-pants over here,&quo

Betty White As McCain Staffer: Palin's "One Crazy Bitch"
Craig Ferguson's talk show comes on way past our bedtime, so we missed comedy genius Betty White's appearance earlier this week. But that's why God invented YouTube, right? Anyway, White spent some of her time portraying a John McCain spokesperson, which apparently entails describing Sarah Palin as a "crazy bitch" and Barack Obama as a "hot piece of man." Betty White, we love you. Oct 10, 2008 · Link · 12 Responses Related Posts

POLITICIANS OR MOB BOSSES? PT. 7
The fury and loathing of Obama being whipped up largely by McCain-Palin-GOP rhetoric about the Illinois Senator is now spilling into down-ticket races, specifically the battle between GOP incumbent Saxby Chambliss and his Dem challenger: Thursday’s debate took place in front of a highly partisan crowd in the GOP stronghold of Middle Georgia. Chambliss supporters waved “Saxby” signs and offered up a sustained “boos” when Martin mentioned Democratic presidential nominee Barack

Obama and McCain Supporters Bring Out the Worst In All of Us
 It seems that Republicans are so desperate to win they'll cheat and Democrats are so scared of any potential cheating that they will try to head off a "stolen" election with a few semi-legal or even illegal tactics of their own...Here's today's insane roundup... scary, scary stuff... it's enough to make you think Bob Barr might pull it off after all...1) Absentee voters in upstate New York were mailed ballots listing Barack's last name as "Osama".The Democratic

Video of the Day: Dana Carvey Returns To TV
 We try our best to avoid the painful comedy that is the Tonight Show With Jay Leno. But Wednesday night's show, with Dana Carvey, was the best we've come across in years.Leno is best when things either go wrong or when he loses the cymbals-crashing punchlines. The other night, he was loose, off-the-cuff, and on a roll... and then Dana Carvey took over...Now we realized why we missed him so much since he left SNL and the spotlight...via Hulu. Related:While You Were Sleeping: Will Smith'

Thoughts on 'The Obama Show'
That Barack Obama’s campaign has selected a Wednesday at 8 p.m. slot to run its half-hour infomercial is pretty convenient for networks, given that some broadcasters are struggling to draw viewers to that time period anyway -- “Obama ... cancels ‘Knight Rider,’” is how Gawker gleefully put it. And Obama really should trump the talking car. By the numbers, Obama is one of the biggest breakout TV stars of the season. His convention speech drew more than 38 million viewers. You know which primetime

LET THE CONSPIRACY THEORIES BEGIN: BARACK ‘OSAMA’ ON BALLOT IN NY
In an upstate New York county, hundreds of voters have been sent absentee ballots with the name Barack Osama.  Commisioners say they regret the error and that it is a typo, which it could very well be.  But… Just take a second and look down at your keyboard and tell me how close the ’s’ and the ‘b’ are and how massively blundering your titanic hands would have to be to make this kind of accidnetal mis-type. Possibly related posts: (automatically generated)NY election mix-u

SNL H&O Song Takes On Candidates
And, of course, the action centered primarily around the current political climate, like this timely take on Hall and Oates' classic "You Make My Dreams." Sample line: "You could pick the cool black guy or a weird old man who's lame." The show's version is almost as good as the original, which we've included down below.

Sarah Palin Scored 841 on SATs?
So someone supposedly came up with Sarah Palin's 12th grade report card. It's too good to be true. I'm sure it's a fake, but we're nothing if not thorough. The alleged report card includes her SAT scores which, for those of our readers outside the States, stand for Scholastic Aptitude Test. The SATs are meant to gauge students on their readiness for college and the scores are very important. They can make or break acceptance to the school of your choice. The test is about 4 hours long

The CC Weekly Weigh In: If I Were President…
The election is less than 4 weeks away, which, obvi, everyone knows since the campaign commercials/ mailings/ phone calls/ SNL skits are EVERYWHERE. All the time. I even hear “I am Barack Obama and I approve this message,” in my freaking SLEEP. It’s crunch time and Barack Obama and John McCain are popping into new cities every day to tell Americans what they plan to do when they move into the Oval Office. Which got us thinking. We know that we could never run for president (there are w

The Obama and Pitt Family Tree
This could make for one odd family reunion: Barack Obama is a distant cousin of actor Brad Pitt, while Hillary Rodham Clinton is related to Pitt’s girlfriend, Angelina Jolie, according to researchers at the New England Historic Genealogical Society.  Clinton, who is of French-Canadian descent on her mother’s side, is also a distant cousin of singers [...]

Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel Back Together on the DL? [Comic]

Well apparently people are now reporting that they saw Jimmy with his arm around Sarah’s waist at the event. You mean they’re past holding hands?!? Sarah made an appearance on The View yesterday where she was asked by Barbara Walters whether or not she was back together with Jimmy. She responded, In total respect to you and your legendness, I do not feel beholden or compelled to defin

Seriously, the McCain-Palin Supporters Are Getting Out of Control
We understand that all the reports of this week's McCain-Palin rallies devolving into nothing but cesspools of shouting and rage and xenophobia are starting to seem a little biased and exaggerated.
