Sarah Palin Is Legitimately Funny

  • 6/26/09 at 1:35 PM

We give Sarah Palin a lot of grief around here, but we'll give credit where credit is due. While visiting the troops in Kosovo (perhaps to thank them for her victory against David Letterman), she cracked what was actually a pretty good joke about John Kerry. See, Kerry, for some reason, is still legally allowed to tell jokes despite his "American soldiers are dumb" and "John McCain is incontinent" debacles. And so when Mark Sanford disappeared recently, Kerry quipped that it was too bad Sarah Palin hadn't gone missing instead. We doubt she wrote it herself, but nonetheless, Palin's comeback was much better. See for yourself.
