YouTube Matters: Sarah Palin Vlog #843

After an eight month drought our parched lips are sprinkled with a brand new Palin Vlog. In this installment we see a sad a broken woman struggling to find comfort in her time of trouble and where else does she run except to the arms of friend and fellow governor, Mark Sanford?

Enjoy!

Satire Matters: Sara Benincasa's Sarah Palin #3

FAIL. The entire Web ad team at the McCain campaign needs to be fired.

TV Matters: Letterman Exposes McCain

Rarely does entertainment intersect so succinctly with current events. Here we have McCain telling a bold face lie to Letterman for no apparent reason. McCain could have easily said, "David, I have to do "The Evening News" because I suspended my campaign today." End of story. Instead, this clip is going viral and the entire affair exposes McCain to endless ridicule.

The best thing to come out of the McCain campaign are the Sara Benincasa Palin vlogs.

Satire Matters: Rachel Maddow and Sara Benincasa's Sarah Palin

My number one crush at the moment is on Rhodes Scholar and hottie Rachel Maddow who is only out of my league because she's a lesbian. My second biggest crush right now is on Sara Benincasa who portrays Sarah Palin in a series of leaked vlogs from the McCain/Palin campaign. What really makes the volgs work is the work of Diana Saez whose Dina Heath-Barr apparently loves Rachel as much as I do. The sad truth is that Dina Heath-Barr has a better shot at Rachel than I do. Tear.

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.
