Honestly, who freaking cares what Tina Fey says or does?!? It shows how far this country has declined when this is a top story.

Tina Fey is a funny person, really funny! She has never gone to work every day to help 600,000 Alaskans survive in these difficult times.

Gov Palin has plenty of shortcommings but takes the heat making hard unselfish decisions on complex issues. Real life and death issues.

There is a difference.

Tina Fey is a very funny person, but what she thinks doesn't mean anything. She should stick to what she does best and that is make people laugh. If Sarah does win then Tina can join her friend Alec and they both can leave the earth..

As for real life & death situations, give an example. She never commanded troops, a police action, and all I can find is her is lies & deceit. She even claimed to have been found clear of charges in the Troopergate fiasco when the report said the exact opposite, she was guilty of misuse of power & violated an Alaskan ethics code. How can someone unable to tell the truth, and admit a wrong, possibly lead? She's Cheney w/o the backround & brains. Scary!

You are leaving earth if Palin wins? Good, because if Obama wins I have no plans to leave earth though I will certainly leave the US.

I am sort of hoping Obama wins because it will be hilarious to watch you Hollywood types FINALLY start getting exactly what you so avidly desire...a socialist president who consorts with terrorists and racists who want to raise taxes and redistribute wealth. I just want to watch it all at a minimum safe distance.

If you want to redistribute wealth, why don't you start with the Streisand, Soros, Kennedy, and Buffet fortunes? Lead by example.

If Obama wants to redistribute wealth and wants my willing cooperation, let him start by redistributing HIS wealth.

Obama is a liar, despite what the news wishes to say.

Besides, sigh, Palin is so DREAMY and pretty and just plain HOT that of course she will make a good president. I mean, that IS why some women have point blank said they would vote for Obama.

Let's see...Palin within the authority she has fires a fellow who tasered a family member while Obama consorts with terrorists like Ayers. Yeah...let's get mad at Palin. (Details of Palin's case are fuzzy, I admit because I just do not care, LOL)

Let's see...Palin decides to burden herself with a beautiful Down's Syndrome baby while 90% of Down's Syndrome babies are terminated and Obama thinks it okay to allow babies who survive the termination process to expire in a cold metal sink. Do the nurses watch or listen to the babies struggle for breath? Yeah...let's get mad at Palin.

Let's see...Palin goes against her own party, hits up the oil companies and distributes some $1,200 plus per year to the citizens of her state while Obama is passing the Jubilee Act resulting in more debt on Americans. Yeah...let's get mad at Palin.

Supporting Obama is simply indefensible.

The impersonations were so funny because she didnt really have to change the words that were spoken by the Governor Palin. I think it really woke some Americans up. She really hasn't gotten into the 'dark side' of Gov. Palin's 6 week run.

Consider:

1) the whole trooper mess. Gov. Palin was very fond of attacking people in Alaska on ethics issues, yet she is found guilty of very visibly breaking an ethical rule. She cannot even bring herself to admit it.

2) Alaska Independence Party - Secessionist and supported by both her and her husband. To want your State to no longer be part of the US is, by definition, unAmerican.

3)Her 'hockey rink' house. Nothing proven here...yet, but has been surfacing in the media. Her husband claims that he and some 'contractor buddies' built their 3,600 sq ft, two storey, $500,000.00+ house. Problem is, the $12m skating rink was being done at the same time and Palin got her Republican friends son appointed for the architect job. Palin also opposed the requirement of building permits durig this time - no records exist. The construction is of a type that would required very skilled labor according to one news report. (This is NOT a log cabin - looks like a very nice lakeside house.)
So, the question is raised:

a) who were these 'contractor buddies' who helped Todd build the house and were they related to the rink? (right now many who have been asked cannot recall whether they did or did not help and Todd hasnt identified anyone yet.)
b) how much did the Palins actually spend on the house? (Even with Todd supplying the labor and perhaps all of his buddies, they have to have receipts, etc fro materials?)

I also have a pretty big question -
Palin claims to be 'middle class'. Her salary as mayor was what? Todd Palins salary was what? They have 5 kids (now), probably 3 then. She has an airplane, snowmobiles and other vehicles. How much did the house cost to build and how did they afford it? (labor/materials/design)
I dont know many 'middle class' Americans that can raise a family of 3-5, own several vehicles and an airplane, and pay for the labor and materials for construction of a $500,000+ house.

Lots of folks make more than enough to live in these $500k homes and you know it. Why do you think they build so many McMansions? This IS middle class.

The left, god bless them, has done an excellent job of pointing at the middle class and shouting to the poor, 'they are rich and they are why you are poor!' Middle class IS rich compared to the poor, this is why they are called poor. This is a case of the left trying to class someone like a doctor or a governor making enough money to live well as 'rich.'

Low six figure income is not rich, it is just that most folks in this country are sinking from the middle class back into the lower middle class and poor class because of inflation, yours truly included.

Buffet is rich. Soros is rich. Streisand is rich.

I doubt very seriously that Palin is rich.

I'd take Tina Fey's political advice over Palin's any day. Sadly I think she actually understands more about the issues.

Regarding houses, Obama managed to buy, with the aid of a convicted felon, an over million dollar mansion in Chicago.
Sarah and her husband both worked, he with two jobs. Their plane is a small Piper Cub on floats, very common in Alaskan back yards. With hard work, living thrifty, even you could have a house like that.

3 members of my white middle class family have told me, face to face and more than once, that if McCain gets in... they are selling everything they have leaving the country even if they have to take a loss. These are people whose families played big parts in founding this country and one side was here as far back as the mid 1650's. This is no joke folks. If the US people have to suffer yet again another 4 to 8 years of Republicans then it's over, we lost, there is no more point to wasting our effort trying to make it a decent place... at that point it's time to count your losses and just get away from it to somewhere your efforts aren't just stolen and handed to some politition's crooked corporate friends through no-bid contracts, fony wars, congressional theft and an insane tax plan.

Hmmm...explain Palin's ties to white supremicist groups and fundamentalist radicals. Quite obviously Sara P. is a right wing terrorist who has infiltrated the republican party...of course they are too stupid to realize it.

Fey is lucky to have a self made women like Palin to goof on. Without Palin, Fey would still have her going nowhere career. If Palin loses- Goodbye Fey your career is over.
