Rachel seized the moment to repeat it. I know she was dying inside to keep a straight face.

during the SOTU & she got back a bounty of teabaggerisms (made-up crap) in the interview.

until the link was posted.. WOW

And I mean

And then the rebuttal speech, Man, if that's what the r's have lowered themselves to, yikes. But funny too. The guy couldn't keep on one topic and as soon as he was asked for clarification he was off to another planet with yet another word salad talking point. And everyone thinks Caribou Barbie is incoherent!



ETA: I hope that little segment goes viral!

They remember Palin though.

They don't remember WHY but they remember wanting to bump uglies with her.
