28 Sep 08 Laugh or Cry
Last night’s opening segment of SNL would be hilarious if it wasn’t such a true portrait of Sarah Palin. This is an actual quote from her interview with Katie Couric:
” . . . where it is the taxpayers looking to bail out. But ultimately, what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the healthcare reform that is needed to help shore up our economy. Um, helping, oh — it’s got to be all about job creation too. Shoring up our economy, and putting it back on the right track. So healthcare reform and reducing taxes and reining in spending has got to accompany tax reductions, and tax relief for Americans, and trade, we’ve got to see trade as opportunity, not as a competitive, um, scary thing, but 1 in 5 jobs being created in the trade sector today. We’ve got to look at that as more opportunity. All of those things under the umbrella of job creation. This bailout is a part of that.”
Then again, maybe that makes it even funnier. Laugh or cry, your choice:
