ALMOST-TRUE NEWS: Saturday Night Live producers are trying to negotiate a return to the show of former SNLer Tina Fey to do a series of appearances parodying VP-nominee Sarah Palin. Fey, known for her role as the harried exec in a comical American Express commercial, bears a striking resemblance to Palin.
Late Night show host, David Letterman, referred to Palin as “a Lenscrafters Model.”
Coincidentally, News Show host Paul Harvey, reports that optometrists nationwide, have been besieged with requests for eyeglasses like Sara Palin’s. Reportedly, to get the exact designer frames with lenses that Palin wears would cost $700. Expect knockoffs soon.
Should McCain be elected, Palin will be a great improvement in hunting safety, a life-long NRA member, Palin is said to know her way around a gun, a huge improvement over Dick Cheney.
Palin is tough on law-and-order. Not only did she fire Alaska Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan and try to fire State Trooper and ex-brother-in-law Mike Wooten while Governor in 2005, she fired Wassilla Police Chief Irl Stambaugh in 1996 as Mayor of that town.

Oh, darn! You beat me to it. I was going to comment about the Tina Fey-resemblance on another post. You know Tina and SNL can’t wait to do it. Gotta be the best political impersonation they’ve done since Will Ferrell-Janet Reno.
The Detroit Free Press did an entire article complete with photos of famous people with Palinesque glasses drawn on them.
And of course, SNL DID take advantage of Tina Fey’s appearance in a spot-on cameo that opened the show recently:
Brilliant! As I knew SNL would do it. “It’s MY nomination! My “first”! And they’re stealing it from me. First Obama. Now this woman! All those years I put up with, I mean stood behind Bill, and now it was supposed to be MY turn!”
