Sarah Palin Gets Phone Pranked
Republican vice-presidential Sarah Palin found herself the butt of another joke Saturday afternoon during a phone call prank.
The “Masked Avengers”, Marc-Antoine Audette and Sebastien Trudel from the Montreal radio station CKOI, managed to get through to Palin posing as French President Nicolas Sarkozy.
“I just love killing those animals. Hmm-hmm. Take away a life, that is so fun. I’d really like to go, as long as we don’t bring Vice-President Cheney,” Audette said, referring to an incident in which Dick Cheney shot a fellow hunter by accident.
“No, I’ll be a careful shot,” Palin responded with a laugh.
The prankster ends with: “If one voice can change the world for Obama, one Viagra can change the world for McCain.”

lol
hahaha what a big dummy!
This is scary. Imagine having this fool, who can’t even identify a fake French accent, running our country.
Why am I not surprised? Dummy! LOL
talk about copying russel brand and johnathen ross…
Lmfao. She is so easily fooled..Omg..How could she not tell this wasn’t for real?
HAHAHAHA that’s freaky!! she can’t even tell that’s not Sarkozy!! they ownnnn her!!! I’m from montreal and she’s such a joke!!
that was mean : S
but still funny!
hahahahahaha i think she was really dumb not realized that!!! omg IS SOOO FUNNY HAHA!
IT WAS SO MEAN FROM THAT RADIO STATION HAHA THE END WAS THE BEST POOR PALIN
what a dumbass fool.
LOL It was only a partially fake French accent. They’re called French-Canadian for a reason.
He sounded REALLY legit, they definitely were well prepared! She was probably excited to talk to an important foreign official and it’s not like she’s ever met him. lol
I doubt, no, I PRAY this would never happen if she were ever elected VP. Of course, Palin supporters will say this was a dirty trick but they can’t blame it on the democratic party! Even Canada sees her as a joke.
Haha, you gullible Americans.
Check out Fonejacker on Youtube, prank fone call show in Britain ;)
Anybody could have been fooled thats why they are called “pranks”.
it wasn’t a fake french accent at all.
they ARE french.
people (some, not all) in montreal and france speak the same language.
the accents are different, but someone who is not familiar with the language could very easily not hear the difference.
and yes, anyone not familiar with the accent or language could be easily fooled. it has nothing to do with her intelligence.
but keep posting irrelevant press stunts attacking palin in an attempt to make her look bad instead of concentrating on the issues that matter for the election that is in two days.
It was sad and embarrasing, she is the laughing stock all over the world, Mccain should be ashamed after george Bush , how dare he pick someone who is clueless and dumb. She sounded like a 10 yr. school girl her gigling was shamefull ,lack of knowledge was shamefull, she did not even attempt to hear the questions otherwise she should have known it was a prank ,she did worse than the Katie Couric interview. I am embarresed for her!!! What makes her think that the Pres. of France would even call her! POor woman she is beginning to believe all the hype about how georgeous she is and flirts like a lil kid, how incredibly sad i am for her. That is what you get when you don’t vet someone and not thinking about the American people. Shame on you Mccain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh man!, i’m embarrased for her, that was awful!
She’s such a fool.
I saw it in he News today!! Omg, hillarious!
HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I can assure you, as someone that lives in Toronto, that very few people up here takes Palin seriously as a world leader. She’s a joke.
Sorry, Sam this has NOTHING to do with issues. For goodness sake, it was a pair of Canadian-DJs not the Democratic party (as much as you like to BLAME them). These 2 have pranked many ‘celebrities/politicians’ so stop whining and taking it so personally.
The prank, while immature, was funny and clearly DEMONSTRATED that she is arrogrant (President maybe in 8 years?) and down-right stupid. Some things you can give her a pass on BUT assuming she thought is was the real-deal she should have asked him to clarify a few things instead of blindly agreeing and the giggles - for the love of god!
ROTFL !
Wow .
She’s an idiot! “We should go hunting together!” FREAK!!
my favorite part was how he was saying he love the documentary about her life called “Nailin’ Palin” which is a porno and she said thank you and the guy was like “oh that was so edgy” haha
i used to get mad and defend sarah over how a white woman is being singled out and picked on by the sickos on the left however her and john continue to cater to the left going on shows like SNL so let them all make fun of her. All I can say is, if this same stuff happened to obama, everyone would be screaming racist racist racist, right? right.
Get over yourself, eddie. If Obama fell for that sh*t I’d say he was just as stupid as Palin is. Fortunately, he isn’t.
imagine if mccain palin wins
she is not smart, i will tell u that
This just confirms what an idiot she is and what an idiot McCain is for picking her. Let’s just hope there aren’t too many idiots out there that would vote for them. Get out and vote for the smart guy!!
Obama-Biden ‘08
Well her IQ is only 83, what do you expect?
well said, Jill.
It’s so sad for her to even think that she wants to become a president one day. She’s an embarrassment! I bet she felt so damn salty for her to know she was pranked. If she was an intelligent serious politician she would have know better!
LOL it’s almost a little scary how this is DEFFINITELY Palin, and DEFFINITELY a fake french accent. It’s hilarious, she cannot even understand a word she said. I think there are two scary aspects to this…
1. The fact that this is how Palin would be in a conversation with the French President.
2. Palin actually fell for this.

these pranksters have clowned celebrities of ALL different races, cultures and religions. it’s not about race….
it’s about stupidity, lol.
That was hilarious!
Just how she responded to their questions was enough to make me laugh.
I hope Obama wins.
Palin’s good for a laugh
And Obama (IMO) is good for office
Ok, its NOT a fake French accent, its just not a European French accent, its a French Canadian accent. I think we can forgive her for not picking up on that.
What we cannot forgive her for is:
1. not catching on to all the little comments that make it 100% clear she is not talking to Sarkozy (the Nailin Pailin reference, the hunting comments, the joe the plumber song)
2. the Canadian Prime Minister is Stephen Harper (hell we just had an election a few weeks ago) and there is NO Quebec Prime Minister - she has no clue who the leader of the country next her country is, the country that the US just happens to do most of its trade with and the one she claimed to work closely with.
The call was amusing, but also scary as hell… imagine if this idiot gets into office.
that was meaan
I feel really bad for her, in the end it was so sad for her :( But hello why would the french gov. call her?? omg hahah
This was just another reason for you who is thinking of vothing for Palin -McCain to Vote Obama!!
More sexist pigs at play.
Just continuing disprespect for a female candidate. No one is EVER this disrespectful to the men.
Laugh all you want sitting on your bums on a gossip site but this woman - whatever your or my political differences are with her - is too busy living a successful life to be wasting any part of her life here.
Well, Jill, do you call out Obama when he thought there were 57 states along with his other gaffes? How about the stupidity of Biden who makes up history literally out of whole cloth? Did you call out Biden for being stupid when he claimed he claimed FDR was President in 1929 and that everyone watched him on TV in 1929?
Being diplomatic and kind to a phone caller int he midst of a hectic campaign when you are unsure of the true identity of the person is not stupid. It is rather smart to play it safe. It isn’t as if Palin discussed foreign secrets with the imposters.
One of the most disturbing aspects of this campaign has been the number of females willing to join in on the unrelenting misogyny and sexist attacks on Palin - and before her on Hillary Clinton. These women should be ashamed of themselves. I am ashamed of them.
@ canadiansuz I agree with everything you said, but here, in Quebec, we got a prime minister… Jean Charest
#39 groundcontrol — I am a female and I think the prank was hilarious. You should be embarrassed for Palin. By the way they have also pranked many men so it’s not a gender thing. So sit down and put your sexism card away. It’s not a Get Out Of Jail Free Card for stupidity.

exactly what I was thinking, lol.
it’s not even that funny to me. it’s actually shocking and I’m embarrassed for her.
haha that is really funny, i think she got kind of mad

i think it’s really scary! what if mccains is elected? that won’t be hilarious anymore!
she’s ******* stupid
Wow…What an embarrassment! I’m voting for Obama so to hell with this crazy chick. She’s an insult to women and to the U.S.A.!
SHE’S ONE DUMB B*TCH
I AGREE WITH #48
GO BACK TO ALSAKA YOU DUMB HOE

Oh honey, get over it. McCain has such a low opinion of women in general that he picked this bimbo as his running mate because he thought women are so stupid they will back anything with a vágina, and now you try to show he actually has a point. Comparing Palin to Clinton is like comparing Albert Einstein (Clinton) to a Alfred E. Neuman (Palin). I’m ashamed of any woman who would back Palin just because she’s a woman.
OMG as funny as it is… this is also scary. and whoever is saying this is sexist is full of bu*ll, come on now, she is up for the position of VP and she talks like THAT wtf, and lets herself be fooled, didnt even know who the Canadian prime minister was.. such a shame.. Palin is an insult to inteligent and educated women everywhere.

Though I can’t stand Palin - I felt her embarrassment. Than I remembered all the lie she spewed about Barack Obama “palling around” with terrorist and insinuating that he isn’t a real American. So, yeah I don’t feel bad at all. Her team is pathetic and so is she. Its like the blind leading the blind.
You can like her if you want, but people in USA need to be responsible and care about their countries future and vote with your heads.
“Well her IQ is only 83, what do you expect?”
I expect someone to know that her “IQ score of 83″ is phony

Women like myself are ridiculing Palin because she is not a qulified candidate for the position. we are stung by McCain’s insult to American women by putting this underqualified gigly girl on the ticket. I cannot believe he thought women who supported Hillary would turn to his ticket because there is any woman there. If he put a woman who is as qualified, as smart and experienced as Hillary on the ticket he would have had a fair chance.
Men and women alike are appalled by Palin’s lack of inteliigence and think she deserves all the ridicule that come her way. And to think she is dreaming of a presidential bid in 4 years….

Justify your actions and the contempt for women shown during this campagin all you want. It changes nothing. This is misogny pure and simple. Perhaps it would be funny if it were not part and parcel of the overall tenor of this campaign which was disgraceful in its treatment of women.
Since you also fail to grasp the reality of this campaign I’ll explain. It is pretty much undestood by those in both campaigns that McCain chose Palin to solidify the more conservative republican base which was very unhappy with McCain as the nominee because of his history of being on the outs wth the party. Palin had been on the radar of the republican party for over a year and was being touted for a bigger GOP role. Just because in your limited world you never heard of her before doesn’t mean others hadn’t. Her gender was considered a bonus but it was not why he picked her.
Showing respect for someone and voting for them are two different things - a concept which seems to be beyond your grasp.
In fact I am a lifelong Democrat who fought the civil rights and womens rights battles long ago and I recognize the ignorance and the self destruction of these gender based attacks like millions of other women do. Like them I just shake my head in amazement at the willingness and glee with which other females join in on the Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin bashing. Your failure to understand the consequences of your behavior is what we had to battle many years ago. Luckily for you we won many of those battles despite women like you.
Even your choise of words drips of misogyny - honey, bimbo. Face it, you’re no feminist . Sarah Palin is more of a feminist than you are.
Shame on you.

#58groundcontrol: I am a woman but being a woman does not mean you don’t have common sense. Lumping Sarah Palin with Hillary Clinton is a horrible mistake. Hillary is intelligent; Palin is not. Hillary has earned her stripes on the political scene; Palin has not. Hillary is a great mother by all accounts. Enough said. Politics is tough business. Equality means equality, not kid gloves for some and not for others. Is it sometimes unfair? Sure but that’s life. I feel the same way when people scream racist whenever Obama gets attacked. This is not sexist; this is just a clever prank pulled on a very dumb WOMAN!
#58 You are delusional (hopefully that’s gender neutral enough for you). Seriously, to whine about sexism over this phone call clearly demonstrates that you view sexism around every corner.
Palin is not inspiration for female empowerment and does not get a pass on stupidity because of her gender. And as a professional woman I find her flirting, giggling and nodding vacantly through conversations/interviews UNACCEPTABLE.

Thank you for saying it better than I did. As I told groundcontrol before, trying to compare Hillary Clinton to Sarah Palin is like comparing Albert Einstein to Alfred E. Neuman. Clinton is an extremely intelligent lady, Palin is a nitwit.

“Feminist” my ass, honey — I don’t have to explain my politics to you. I earned my stripes long ago and so did my mother. Like her, I am a professional woman and a college graduate, and unlike you, I am intelligent enough to know that Sarah Palin is eminently unqualified to be running for vice-president. I wouldn’t vote that woman for dog-catcher. She doesn’t have the experience or the intelligence to be vice-president of anything, let alone the United States. McCain naming her as his running mate was showing as much contempt for women as naming Alan Keyes as his running mate would have shown contempt for blacks.
It’s time for Sarah Palin to take her exaggerated ego and family tribe back to Alaska! Her young daughter who has been used as a babysitter needs to be in school with other kids her age instead of being hawked at the political rallies.
God, please spare us a McBush-Palin administration!!!!!!!
How on earth did she have this conversation without major alarm bells going off at several points????? Her ego is definitely bigger than her brain!
#58 Groundcontrol - you object on the grounds this is sexism?
I agree with you that women willing to step into the public arena often have to cop more than men. But in this case, it had less to do with her being female than about her being so gullible!
As I said above, how come alarm bells didn’t start going off at several points - eg. the killing live things, my wife is hot in bed, etc etc! If she is so dumb as to be taken in by this, what would she do in situations that require real discernment? Scary thought!
Also, those who live by the sword usually die by the sword. And Palin plays on her femaleness & folksy down-home ness all the time. She can’t then object when people evaluate her from that same stance!!!
It’s kind of funny cause i’m an actual french-canadian and like our accent isn’t the same than the French people like sarkozy !!!
C’est drole parce que moi je suis un canadienne francais et notre accent est vraiment pas le même que celui des francais comme Sarkozy !
This is so sad. She claimed she worked on legislation with Canadian official, yet she could not name the Canadian PM, did not know that Quebec had NO PM. She also failed to notice that the French president’s name was screwed up or that the accent sounded funny. What a dumb twat.
@Elise Le Blanc - Quebec has a Premier for the province like the rest of country (I think it translates to Prime Minister into french) but in english its Premier and english is apparently what this poor excuse for a candidate speaks - she simply has no clue. And for those people who want to cry sexism, STOP. This is about someone being unqualified - THINK DAN QUAYLE, not that she’s female. I wouldn’t dare compare her to Hillary Clinton, she’s not even in the same league. Sarah Palin is an insult to women, and I find it hard to believe that she was the best the republican party could do!!!
Even if she suspected it was a prank, its not like she could say anything. what if it had been the president of france or whatever, she would be screwed if she cursed out the president of france.

**************************************************************************************************
She’s not the best the republican party could do; she’s the best John McCain could do. And is one more reason why he is unfit to be president.
Are you people nuts? If she knew anything about Sarkozy, she would know that he rarely speaks English, and wouldn’t have come out with those comments. Ohmygod, she’s talking like a naïve schoolgirl. She also giggled when he said, “I just love killing those animals; taking away life…that is so fun.” She also didn’t know the name of the Canadian prime minister. There is no Prime Minister of Quebec, but when the guy asked if she had met his friend, the Prime Minster of Quebec, she said, “I haven’t met him yet.” This guy was saying things that were so obviously a goof, and she was totally opaque. I mean, “I can see Belgium from my bedroom window”? How could she fall for this nonsense, and be so incredibly clueless? Terrifying.
Amiga…
No offense, but are you totally gone? Did you listen to the tape? Palin knows less than my 16 year-old niece. No wonder they won’t let her give serious interviews. She is incredibly obtuse. The prime minister of Quebec? “I can see Belgium from my bedroom window?” She should have known it was a prank from the start.
The thought of Sarah Palin as VP reminds me somehow of that Movie Idiocracy. Anyone else?
hahaha very funny well done Canadians.
she’s so stupid!
@ Elise Le Blanc, no you do not have a prime minister Elise. It is just a bad translation from french. We say premier minister in french, but it should not be translated as prime minister in english, it should be translated as premier- the head of the province not to be confused with the head of the country. Mais, peut-etre vous savez tout cela deja et vous plaisantent seulement ou quand meme c’est qqchose que vous espérez va passer a l’avenir. It is a joke right… there arent any more seperatists, the referendum was so long ago, you guys are going to suffer through Harper with us right?

lol Canadian’s rock!
btw Prime Minister of Canada is Stephen Harper. and there is no Prime Minister of Quebec.
to Ground Control,
Palin was not being seriously considered as a running mate over 1 year ago. And yes, the only reason McCain chose her was to get the Hillary/woman’s vote, and the fact that she had an 80% approval rating in Alaska. That’s “had.” Her popularity in Alaska has plummeted 20 percentage points in the past 8 weeks. In addition to violating the state’s ethics codes and the trust of her constituents on the Troopergate affair, she is now under investigation for corruption and ethics violations for the TransCanada deal. McCain didn’t vet this lady at all.
No way I would vote for McCain; his judgment is far too questionable, and he is genuinely erratic. Obama’s campaign has been disciplined, focused, professional, and far more above board compared to McCain/Palin’s.
