Sarah Silverman, The Great Schlep, and Jews Who Get Out the Vote

Tuesday September 30, 2008

Okay so Sarah Silverman is known for her outrageous comedy skits but this one tops all: she's done a video urging all Jews in the United States to take Florida by storm, making a special visit to their Jewish grandparents...

Oh, that is classic! I'd seen the Sarah Silverman one (hilarious, as always), but I almost like the "Hey Sarah Palin" one even better. I love that it's so lo-fi, which kind of highlights the fact that Palin's incompetence is inspiring even people in their bedrooms to feats of brilliance. Awesome.

I am NOT a fan of Obama, and won't be voting for him. (actually, not much of a fan of McCain/Palin either. *sigh*) But oh my heck I LOVE Sarah Silverman. She's HILARIOUS! (So was the song.) Such talent.

Yes, there ARE Republicans with a sense of humor (heck, look who we voted in last time!).

Kudos to both videos!!!!!!! I will be passing them on to friends and family. I only have to schlep down the hall to my Grandfathers room (I take care of him) and tell him about Obama! Good work folks! I'd like to send a special shout-out to Tina Fey and her two SNL Palin videos!!!! Let's see what kind of train-wreck happens tonight in the VP debate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Simon says: Go see the grandparents in Florida.
Sarah Palin doesn't know the difference between a brisket and a briss--among other things that ar far more important and would fall into the range of Presidential responsibilities.

God (or whomever) help us if the McCain-Palin ticket is elected.

Thanks Sarah Silverman and the delightful duet of lesser lights who are now due for recognition and jobs on the SNL writing staff.

This is ust another example of youth vs. the experience that comes with age. Older voters vote with our heads, not our emotions. Obama has NO experience to qualify him to be leader of this country, especially as Commander in Chief of our military. Having many advisers is not the same as knowing how to make a decision on your own based on leadership experience. PLEASE, think long and hard before you vote for Obama.

If you haven't serverd for the country you claim to love, then you should not be given the right to run the Commander in Chief period.

"If you haven't serverd for the country you claim to love, then you should not be given the right to run the Commander in Chief period."

Which would rule out John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and FDR (although he was appointed Asst. Secretary of the Navy, he was never actually in the Navy).

I may have missed a few, but these are the one's I could remember off the top of my head.

You know, it is time for us to come together as a country. We are all on the same side, aren't we? We are all americans, dems and reps alike. So stop all this nastiness, pick the candidate of your choice and CALM DOWN. Let democracy work.

Two things...

1. I wouldn't throw eggs at the messenger, just the editor who allowed this messenge on this site.

2. This election is emotional because it is not about politics but about race.
