Satire Matters: Sara Benincasa's Sarah Palin



While the world has been clamoring for SNL to bring back Tina Fey to do Sarah Palin, I'm throwing Sara Benincasa's name into the ring. Sara Benincasa's Sarah Palin is likable, believable, and completely insane. With her comic partner Diana Saez as Dina Heath-Barr, Palin's cousin, personal stylist,and campaign manager, Benincasa lampoons the ridiculous vice presidential run of Governor Sarah Palin with an inspired improvisational style.

I was tempted to include all of the Palin Vlogs, but just visit Benincasa's YouTube page. For even more Benincasa comedy visit her blog Que Sera Sara - Whatever will be, will be Sara B.

Brian has hit on the funniest line of this particular Sarah Palin Vlog post. I'm half tempted to put that on a shirt and sell it. Other great lines from other episodes:

"We killed a man." and "On a midnight bridge to nowhere."- #4

"It's Pounces!" - #3

"That sounds like you just kidnapped some dogs" - #1

I don't really have time right now to list them all, but everyone should list their favorite quotes here.
