In reply to the discussion: Sarah Palin: I ‘Hated’ That SNL ‘Portrayed Me as an Idiot’ - Mediaite [View all]LynneSin
(95,337 posts)They made Ford look like a clumsy oaf. They made Reagan look like a doddering old fool. They made Clinton look like a hounddog who liked to eat alot. They made Bush look like an idiot (wasn't hard to do that). Even Obama gets made to look like a fool.
And it isn't just presidents made to look like idiots - VP, Senators, Representatives, Governors, Candidates - they all get the SNL treatment.
If Palin doesn't want to look like an idiot on SNL then she needs to get out of the limelight all together.
And btw Fey didn't make anything up with that SNL skit with the Katie Couric interview - she just repeated back what Palin had already said.
Edit note: I think it's been 6 years since they spoofed Sarah Palin. Maybe she's more upset she isn't being spoofed anymore. It means they pretty much have forgotten her.
