About Politico's sensationalistic Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck story (SNL 2012 disaster film spoof)
The Washington Examiner ^ | 11/26/09 | Mark Hemingway

Posted on 11/26/2009 5:16:22 PM PST by HokieMom

This past weekend, SNL goofed on the 2012 disaster film by mocking up a fake movie trailer to make the film's title be about Sarah Palin running for president with Glenn Beck as vice-president. I can't find a clip online, but it was amusing. Anyway, today Politico writes:

Click on link in case you missed the SNL thread from last weekend. Scroll down to the 'Sarapoloclypse' thread. There's some Olbermann stuff there then the SNL piece kicks in. That's the only live link I could find. Please feel free to post a better one if you know where it is.

I saw it somewhere. I didn’t think it was funny at all.

Let’s you know how afraid they are of conservatives. But we knew that.

It is funny how liberals can never tell when conservatives are joking.

I thought the spoof was kinda cute. At least it wasn’t belittling or insulting. Just demonstrated their fear.

I think we should all agree not to get too wee wee’d up about what Politico thinks.

More correctly, liberals are afraid of losing their POWER! Anyone like Sarah or Glenn is a threat to that.

I agree with you there. Still, Politico should be held accountable which this column attempts to do.

It’s nice the liberal press is looking out for us Republicans by letting us know that electing a conservative Reaganite would be a disaster-

I suppose they mean unlike the resounding success ‘reaching across the aisle’ has been...

Interesting Liberal Politico keeps up ther hits on
Palin now with the Beck crap. Trying to accociate Palin with Beck is only bought by the uneducated

Sarah Palin supports the war against the IslamOfascists
and believes we must win, not cut and run.

Beck is an anti war libertarian and rants that we should get out and those in the military should not re enlist.

The Left keeps up the bashing now trying to associate her with this idiot Beck who Palin believes the exact opposit.

the left have been using PC to control what people say publicly and the reason why they fear these two are because they are not PC.

I do find it ironic that they say Sarah is thick and yet they have no clue what bozo got at his school because he sealed his records on day one

Liberals have No Sense of Humor,they Must ‘Correct’ all that is wrong with Conservatives,Conservatives Laugh because they Know They Can’t Fix AnyThing Except Themselves.

I believe Palin was being facetious. No way would she hook herself up with Beck.

You completely mischaracterized what Beck said, but then that’s what you meant to do.

You missed the point of all of it.
They are terrified of both of them.

Heads would explode and it would be their worst nightmare.
It was meant to show the worst of the worst to them.

I thought it was pitifully funny because it revealed their worst fear.

And do you really think that if Obama is not going to support the military, stay with the silly rules of engagement that they have now, and basically sending them to be targets, any of them SHOULD reenlist?

Even my Marine husband says that he would not allow his kids to sign up right now.
