Sarah Palin Gets Prank Call, Agrees Hunting By Helicopter ‘Lots Of Fun’

November 2nd 2008

Republican Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin got punk’d yesterday by a Canadian comedian posing as French President Nicolas Sarkozy over the phone. The two discussed politics, Sarkozy’s “beautiful wife’, and the perils of hunting with Vice President Dick Cheney. Here’s a small snippet from MSNBC,

“He tells Palin one of his favorite pastimes is hunting, also a passion of the 44-year-old Alaska governor. ‘I just love killing those animals. Mmm, mmm, take away life, that is so fun,’ the fake Sarkozy says. He proposes they go hunting together by helicopter, something he says he has never done.

‘Well, I think we could have a lot of fun together while we’re getting work done,’ Palin counters. ‘We can kill two birds with one stone that way.’

The comedian then jokes that they shouldn’t bring Cheney along on the hunt, referring to the 2006 incident in which the vice-president shot and injured a friend while hunting quail. ‘I’ll be a careful shot,’ responds Palin.”

Hunting wolves from helicopters while discussing politics? Ah, the potential future of American diplomacy. Apparently, Palin only caught on that the call was a joke after the comedian let the ruse fall and told her who he was. “Ohhh, have we been pranked?” Palin asked before handing the phone to an aide who ended the call.

The Obama campaign amusingly responded to the news saying, “I’m glad we check out our calls before we hand the phone to Barack Obama.” Check out the full audio of the conversation here.

  1. My god, seriously? This woman is such a moron!

  2. I think America is getting pranked by the fact this creature is even on a ballot. Ha. I seriously just feel like it HAS to be a joke because someone like this couldn’t possibly be fit to run our country!

  3. Is impersonating an other person without permission against the Law?
    This is like stealing the other person identity.
    And are pranks punishable by Law?
    This is most tasteless prank.
    There is a serious Business going on in our neighbors country and we, Canadian, take it for a joke.
    Now, probably Mr. Harper would have to apologize!!!
    Very childish, immature and trestles joke.
    And why is it Paulina’s fault?
    Why is she a “moron” because of that?
    People answer telephone in a serious manner – not expecting pranks…

  4. She is a moron for a number of reasons, not just what was revealed in this phone call.

  5. Ms. Palin exemplifies the moronic, close minded stupidity that is now the base rock of the self rightous. She grossly lacks the raw intellect, judgement and objective thought process to be anything more than a PTA volunteer.

    Sarah Palin is a fool. The greedy and the stupid are her base vote. How tragic we have allowed a person of this lowest common denominator to be considered for the position. Tragic indeed!

  6. Don’t offend the PTA like that, dude.

  7. The funny is people will vote for her because “she is just like us” Well MORONS the president and vice president are not suppose to be like us, they are suppose to be better, they are suppose to be the ones we look up to and they are suppose to lead us. If they are like us then it is a the blind leading the blind. 8 years were enough of a proof

    Although you are true- people don’t expect pranks- I must say that when a president calls you, he does not say that he likes killing, or he does not say that his wife is hot in bed, or he does not sing… Sarah Palin is an idiot.
    America, this lack of sagacity has to stop, please, get a clue… See through her looks and big words and really listen to what she’s saying, she’s an idiot who’s in way over her head. A VP that likes to hunt is one thing, but a Vp who doesn’t know the Bush doctrine ? or doesn’t understand the gravity of the repercussions of drilling in sensitive areas ? or importance of sex education ? or importance of the endangered species act ? or importance of foreign policy, economy, war… Please America, pay a little attention to the election, you selected bush and because of that 2834 US soldiers and about 650.000 INNOCENT IRAQI DIED.16 TRILLION DOLLARS were spent. And for what ?
    Please, don’t get confused because of fancy words, or appereances, or fear or conformity. Don’t start another war because you want lower taxes, or don’t kill millions of acres of crops or food chains because you want oil profits, or don’t end up with sexually confused teens…

    Let’s get mavericky ! *wink =D

  9. Thank you Anakyst. I will never vote for someone on the basis of whom I’d rather have a beer with (and not just because I don’t drink beer). I’m voting for leader of the free world, not best friend, thank you, and I want someone who is smarter than I, calmer, cooler, and more collected than I, and has the people around him to make decisions based on the evidence, not on what his delusions of a skydaddy say he should do.

  10. Don’t forget how she believed it when they said they liked the documentary on her, “Nalin Palin.”

    LOL!

  11. This lady is the new face if the new Republican party. Barefoot, pregnant, a rifle in one hand and a wolf pelt in the other. Good Luck in 2012.
