Sarah Palin and Hillary Address the Nation - SNL 

Julianne moore?

+Olga Levin Lisa Ann?

+Olga Levin Julianne Moore acted better; Tina Fey parodied her better.

Wyatt Angle​ Yeah. But look nearly identical to Sarah Palin, that's pretty hard to do. All Tina Fey needs to do is do her hair up like Sarah Palin does, and just make sure she has the right kind of glasses.

aye, because both are losers

Yet, being a "woman" was the cornerstone of Hillary's campaign. In retrospect, this is propaganda.

Tiny Leaf yesyesyes!!!

Yay 2018 hindsight

actually hillary was very firm about not running on her gender against barack obama, around the time when this sketch was made, but when Bernie came around she changed her tone real fast. she was not about make that mistake twice lol

I B yup, turns out most people want equality.

KindaComedy I know.... the botch ran AGAIN.

I think everyone knew she'd run again (eight years, a bit more than a few). Alas, it didn't happened. She lost to Sarah Palin times 100

ikr

trump lol

Anyone can be President....EXCEPT HILLARY, lol.

given what happened in the last 24 years watching this was as dumb as a politician could get...makes me nostalgic. It got worse. First there was a risk of everyone's religious aunt we never visit and avoid on holidays to become vice or even president...and then that uncle we don't know for sure is a mobster and causes a fight on Thanksgiving dinner having the nuclear codes...

What makes me laugh is your ignorance. You actually can see Russia from parts of Alaska..

@@lukeschultz6886 right. However, Palin cited Alaska's proximity to Russia, and the fact of a shared maritime border as part of her foreign policy experience. She looked like the amateur she is when she said that.

@@lukeschultz6886 😄What makes us ALL laugh is your everyday ignorance. That's all. ...we all just laugh and laugh and laugh at the ignorance of the average donald Chump voter. Everyday you say something uniquely stupid all while thinking you are ahead of the game...like today with this reply of yours. You are living Dunning-Krugers. 🙂

@R A R is that all you've got? One, you have no clue for whom I voted. Secondly, that line is worn out, tired, unproven. He's better on his worst day than Sarah is on her best day. Every idiotic thing Sarah said, is on record for posterity.

Dennis Mayaka Actually I was not following :P

+Dennis Mayaka what;s the joke? Sorry, foreign human

+OakiLory Sarah Palin made a hilarious comment during her campaign that she could see Russia from her home in Alaska.

thank you!

So true

I don't agree, Tiny Fey made her look more likable, Sarah Palin destroyed her own career by being an idiot and hypocrite.

Umm, technically Sarah Palin is / was paid millions to do nothing. Guess the joke is on us :(

Chinenye Igwe it affected the election

Chinenye Igwe Nope! Palin destroyed her own career.

I would generally agree with you, but there have been actual studies on the effect of Fey's impersonation that concluded that it reduced support for Palin's ticket by a few tenths of a percent. It's not much, but considering that it was just some comedian making fun of a politician, the fact that there was any measurable change is pretty impressive!

🙄

Love when Amy rips out the board in her frustration!

Yeah both kill this!!!!!

Tina and Amy were at their best when together.

Amy was around 6 or 7 months pregnant during this, and she said the baby was doing backflips the entire time. Either the baby could feel her mothers acting intensity or it knew this would be a hit.

@@ruaraidh74 Yeah, and also Palin's original comment wasn't actually as stupid as the skit made it sound. But I think the line captures the essence of her vapid public persona so well. There's a reason it went viral as it did.

Sarah Palin actually referenced Alaska's proximity to Russia as having foreign policy experience. Her remarks were as bad as they sounded. She failed to elaborate on any kind of negotiations she was part of between the two countries.

+Grace Kull just fyi "As to the question of whether one can actually see Russia from Alaska, Governor Palin was correct: such a view is possible from more than one site in that state In the middle of the Bering Strait are two small, sparsely populated islands: Big Diomede, which sits in Russian territory, and Little Diomede, which is part of the United States. At their closest, these two islands are a little less than two and a half miles apart, which means that, on a clear day, you can definitely see one from the other."

+tutorialbs I actually did know that you can see Russia from certain points in Alaska. However, her house is far from any of those points.

Grace Kull But she never actually said that. She said what I quoted. The media then put words in her mouth relentlessly and repeatedly. And so many news agencies did it, it simply became fact. It's kinda disgusting, really, slanderous beyond belief but she coudln't do anything about it because more people cared about laughing at her than te truth. And even though I despise Palin, I despise what the media did there even more.

+tutorialbs I never said that she said she could see it from her house. I just thought Tina feys impersonation was funny

Kinda like Al Gore never said he invented the internet, yet you hear that one all the time, dontchya?

Same 😂

If you're a fan of Tina Fey, absolutely. It was enjoyable, funny, and really makes you admire her for how she came to be successful.

What does she say about the skit?

I'm reading Amy's autobiography & also got to the part where she talks about this. Had no idea that she was actually heavily pregnant during this sketch. They hid it well.

+Ceri I see it now!

Hello 👋 how're you doing?

Idk, Amy and Maya Rudolph is close

+Heywood Yabloome you spelt intelligence wrong . not great when you pointing out someones stupidity

Nice inside joke. (since Tina Fey played Sarah Palin in this skit)

badgerman Uh....yeah😂

jojowhizz Ironic statement, considering your lack of proper grammar and punctuation.

Fantastic comedy team!

One of the best comedy duos ever

Raise them one Maya Rudolph, the trifecta is complete.

That's how I was when she was talking about her "dahl, Jenny" and not liking "spooky behavior" during the Christopher Walken sketch. lol

Four hacking fits later , I'm feeling better . 🎉 ❤ The Bare Necessities Of Trump ( Patrick Fitzgerald).

No it didn't.

same here 😂😂😂

There is a precedent in SNL. It is believed that Gerald Ford lost because of Chevy Chase impersonating his lack of coordination and unintellectual speeches

Sarah Palin had the biggest effect! They knew nothing about her. They thought a woman on the ticket would help against a black man. McCain should have stuck with his first choice. Palin was the biggest blow to McCain.

Well that and Sarah Palin was actually an idiot.

People also think Palin actually said she could see Russia from her house because of this skit.

I know this is a weird thing to mention, especially on a 6 year old comment, but I love the clone high profile pic :)

Yes 😂😂

Someone is a fortune teller.

13 years later. still funny af. :D

Hey how're you doing?

Try 2018

Because in retrospect, Hillary has been shown to be a cold, calculating liar.

+Olga Bordian hell yeah, if by russia you mean chukchas who can barely speak any russian

Which is funny because Tina Fey said it and not Sarah Palin.

Olga Bordian Yeah I think we know.

Olga Bordian So, Russia has one big house now where everyone lives?😂😂

Olga Bordian ii

Alisha marie Kate is more hilarious tho.

yeah i feel like amy was a more accurate hillary with her dead pan delivery since hillary is so uptight and kate mckinnon is like the cartoon version. still accurate but very exaggerated and amplified.

Ani0227

Alisha marie I feel like Amy is Hillary during this campaign, Kate is the inner 🤔

Ani0227 I like it like that tho, that is what makes the show more live. Kate's presence & energy brings the show up.

almost

Danny Neyman as much as I adore these two artists and this skit, I asked myself the same question. 😱. I guess I'm just glad I wasn't alone. I'd hate for them to feel in any way, shape, or form bad about the present day...🙁

actually from where she lived she could see Russia....do some research libtard.

OMG. Hilarious that you think the problem is that she might be able to actually see Russia. They weren't referring to the truth or falsehood of the statement. They were referring to the stupidity of thinking that being able to see Russia somehow qualifies a person on foreign policy. Please understand I am explaining this to you. Because you missed it. All the libtards got it. And you didn't.

Danny Neyman Damn them WHY

+Tom Yazel Yes and no. There's an island considered to be part of Alaska way in the ocean from which you can kinda see Russia, but no, Palin probably can't actually see Russia from her house. That's the joke.

ဟုတ္တယ္ေလ မင္းက ဘာနားလည္လို႔လဲ စစ္အာဏာ ကရင္မအဖြားႀကီးေစာက္ဖုတ္အေပါက္ကို ေအာက္လမ္းအင္းနဲ႔ လူကိုနည္းအမ်ိဳးမ်ိဳးတကမာၻလုံးေယာက္က်ားေတြကို ကရင္မေယာက္က်ားလုပ္ခိုင္းေနတာ သထားစမ္း

It's NEVER gonna be yours, Hilly! Deal with it. 😜

Anyone can be president just ask Donald Trump☹

KAG 2020 libtards

ladykatie yeah they said a mouthful!!

@@laszlokiss483 lmao stop being ableist you fucking ignorant bastard

@@jack-5699 libtards are the real racists they were the slave holders they were the ones that succeed from the union and are trying too again funny how history repeats itself isnt it fuck off you america hating POS

E Stew 8?

Pengo Schwortz it originally aired in 2008 and I remember watching it. So yes, it's been 8 years since I saw this. Clinton also referred to Obama as Senator Obama. :-)

Mysteries At Lochness Yea, I remember watching it when it first aired. Tina Fey was awesome! :)

boi. It's been 3 years

ZT Gaming If you're referring to this video then yes, it originally aired in 2008. So yes, 8 years.

There was one guy who really enjoyed it

Audaxi - It is a direct quote from this clip @4:25.

original line was "I'm just one weird mole away from being president" before they changed it

No, it's just that this phrase was used often during the election (by pundits, etc), so it wasn't really funny so much as an oft repeated fact. They just didn't put enough of a twist on it here for people to laugh hysterically at it or something.

I got it, I laughed, and now I feel bad. I'm watching this August 30th 2018. R.I.P. Senator McCain, I will forever resent you for giving the world Sarah Palin, but there is no denying you have been a great American.

The most underrated line in this skit.

+Epi Chicken Obama proved that one.

Donald Trump proved it. At least Obama was a Senator and worked hard for it.

+al mccarter AMEN

Donald trump was never president derp derp!

Not really. First, he hasn't become president yet. Second, I think the fact that he's worth billions of dollars, was alredy a household name and had been on his own TV show might have had some slight influence there. If you call that "anyone", then you're an idiot. Since not just "anyone' has those "credentials", obviously your statement is false (same goes for all the other damned politicians that say stupid things like "anyone can be president in the US", because it's completely false, other than in the legal sense). So all Trump has proven is that a very rich man can win enough political and popular support to have a chance of getting into the White House, even without using the tactics and rhetoric usually employed by politicians. Sure I don 't believe most of what Trump says, he contradicts himself and makes racist statements to appeal to the baser part of the population, but I think he's telling just as much truth as any one of the other slimy fuckers is, just not following the "accepted line" of bullshit like they usually do. It's just another brand of bullshit.

Politics is a circus and a crime at the same time.!

Still good to eat 12 years later.

Jaffa T same lol

You are

Ľøŕď Šâťáņ Jőņëş right

2017

2019

ikr

was going to comment just that!

James Salvatore u didn't notice that when people voted for bush ?

James Salvatore Scary maaan 💯💯 lol

Now December 2020 and it seems ANYONE can be President for a single term. People caught on to the con man Trump...at least the smart ones did.

The debate one was funny too. Can’t remember who played Joe Biden but obviously Tina Fey was in it and it was hosted by Queen Latifah.

Hi 👋how are you doing?

I concur!

Well to be fair, it is pretty difficult to parody the comedy itself.

Philipp Süßmann it's not a contest though

+Philipp Süßmann no fuckin way,tina is a Genius.

+Philipp Süßmann no fuckin way,tina is a Genius.

glory greatest country. 🇺🇸ooopp

Lmao 😂

Yachov

Classic!

Brilliant

We have Biden as proof of stupidity

Eight years more would have done everyone good, even if about half of the population wouldn't admit to it. 1992-2000 was the last Pax Americana.

Yeah, but her husband was screwing someone else

@@PoochNYC why would you even write that? Is IT her fault that her husband screwed everything that moved? Such a sexist comment

Im not Republican or Democratic but as a independent I can say the Clintons especially Bill Clinton left a surplus to the American economy!
