1. After her political career goes down the toilet, she has a future in comedy!

14. Yeah, but only if Fox News brings back the Half Hour News Hour
http://www.foxnews.com/halfhournewshour/index.html

Oh.my.god. Check out the caption to the video on the front-page of Fox News' 1/2 Hour News Hour web page (emphasis added)...
The Way We Were
Taking a look at '1/2 Hour News Hour' over the years

Over the years? As though the show was rivaling M*A*S*H in popularity and longitude?

From wikipedia, confirming my recollection...

The first pilot aired on February 18, 2007, and the second on March 4, 2007. Fox News Channel later purchased 13 more episodes of the show, which started airing on May 13, 2007. The show was cancelled and the final episode aired on September 23, 2007.

Love this detail from the Wikipedia entry...

MetaCritic's television division, which produces composite scores based on prominent reviewers' opinions of television pilots, other episodes, and/or DVD releases, gave The Half Hour News Hour pilots a score of 12 out of 100, making it the lowest rated television production ever reviewed on the site.

7. I'm halfway through the show and I don't get why she's even there.
She's not doing anything. She did clean her teeth with her bottom lip a few times. That's kind of funny.

9. Didn't watch it, don't care
If she can still see Russia from her bedroom, she is UNFIT TO LEAD. If she can stare into Putin's rearing head from her bathroom, she is UNFIT TO LEAD. If she can abuse her powers in several different ways, whilst lying to the populace about it, and calling for Obama's assassination, she is FUCKING UNFIT TO LEAD. A goddamn comedy show doesn't change the fact that she is mildly stupid, highly ignorant, and fucking evil.

12. Oh yeah! That's what I'd call game changer! SP is NO Tina Fey!!!
Palin was so blah in that first skit. She just looked sour, where Tina Fey just sparkled.

I couldn't get past the 2nd skit in the Japanese restaurant. It stunk. I hear SP showed up again later. Is it worth rewinding my tivo?

16. She appeared on Weekend Update,
while Amy Poehler and other cast members in costumes did a rap number which poked fun at her. She sat there bobbing her head and waving her arms but her facial expressions indicated she was not really enjoying it.

13. I'm willing to admit that McCain has at least a little bit of comedic ability.
His SNL appearance last year was actually funny, and he got in some good stuff at the Al Smith dinner.

But Moosealini ain't got a future in stand-up when they throw her out of Alaska.
