You know what would be funny - they should do a 30-Rock sendup, and cast Sarah Palin as Tina Fey. Hell, the ‘set’ of 30 Rock is actually offices in the building, and I’m sure Alec Baldwin would be in for it.
It’d be a nice twist on the SNL cast always impersonating politicians. And I have a suspicion that Palin could pull it off.
My God, that’s brilliant.
Okay, I have to add to my previous statement. On the humor scale:
Sarah Palin as herself < Tina Fey as Sarah Palin < Sarah Palin as Tina Fey
I don’t care much for Palin’s political views, but such a thing would still be a work of art regardless.
I can’t quite figure out how to provide the link without violating the two click rule. But go to Snopes, search for “Palin,” and the first search result busts that the nude image is Palin or Louis-Dreyfuss.
So what happened??
Click on the link titled “The Jawa Report”
But damn, I had no idea Julia Louis-Freyfuss posed nude.
It was a rerun of the episode where Tina Fey hosted. So… kinda Palin? 
Great, now my wife thinks I made up the story about Sarah Palin being on as an excuse to look at Tina Fey.
She didn’t…follow the last link in the Snopes Palin story, and you will find that Julia’s pic is a fake, too…so it’s a fake of a fake.
So let me get this straight–the GOP embargoes their VP candidate for weeks from media access (to a historically unprecedented extent), but we may actually be graced with her presence on a skit show?
Pathetic.
Not to get all Great-Debaty, but Palin’s schedule hardly qualifies for as embargoed from media access (or did I miss something?)

Colorado Springs, CO
1:45pm MT Depart Colorado

3:30pm MT Media Interviews
7:00pm MT “The Road to Victory Rally”
Albuquerque Convention Center
Three media interviews in one day doesn’t sound like she’s hiding.
Back to Cafe Society (after doing my research and clicking on through to all nekkid pictures) - I think Tine Fey is the natural Sarah Palin. She already has that glasses thing going on. Yowza!
Can we get a cite on who this “Media Interview” actually is with? Because I haven’t heard a peep all weekend.
These times are all from yesterday. Who interviewed her?
Ach, if only American politicians were as good sports as Canadian politicians, the world would be a happier place.
I know that most Americans probably won’t recognize many Canadian politicians, so let me spoil the joke by explaining that the skit features many prominent Members of Parliament, including the leaders of the major parties (so, the Prime Minister is in there – the guy who makes Mercer spit-take at the end). [/TotallyRuiningTheJoke]
Am I the only one to think This Woman is the most natural choice to play Palin?
Heh, nice. Though sadly I think Peggy might be a little bit too far left to be Palin. However, this is about as perfect of a comparison there is.
Speaking of cartoonish pols, did you catch the Daily Show bit comparing Fred Thompson and Joe Lieberman to Foghorn Leghorn and Droopy Dog? Spot on.
In the same vein, I always though Reid and/or Lieberman personified Kiff of Futurama quite well.
That is good!
What would that have to do with her ability to play another person? Do the actor’s (or in this case, cartoon character’s) politics have to match the person she is portraying?
Has anyone posted this yet?

Whatever happens on SNL, I hope it’s half as funny as that was!
If you give them your e-mail address you get a FREE FUZZY THING!
Out of love for my fellow dopers, here is a direct link to the Free Fuzzy Thing so you can get it without giving Michael Palin your e-mail address (although I can’t think who would not want to share e-mail addresses with Michael Palin).
Julia Sweeney!
