Tina Fey couldn't write this

Let's say that you're trying to make the case to the American people that your ass is qualified to hang on to the nuclear codes. When someone asks you a fairly straightforward question such as "What newspapers do you read to stay informed?", you should just give them a name. It's not like you haven't already said things on record that were proven to be lies (See "Bridge To Nowhere"). So the problem is clearly not that you are incapable of bullshit. You actually seem to be quite good at it. Which is why this clip sends my head spinning, Sarah Barracuda. Just give Katie Couric the name of a newspaper, any newspaper. Blurt out "USA TODAY!" or "WALL STREET JOURNAL!" or "CARIBOU FIELD DRESSING WEEKLY!" How is anyone going to prove that you haven't read it? But what chills my bones like a polar bear that's fallen through the melting ice cap is the fact that The Barracuda can't even come up with the name of a single newspaper that she's even heard of. Katie Couric asks her THREE TIMES for the name of a publication, and all Palin does is continue to chirp on inanely in her trademark non sequitur defense about how the media wants to frame her as uninformed. Just give Katie a name, 'Cuda. Any name. Make one up if you have to. Next question. It's easy. Even George Bush would have come up with "The Daily Eagle of 9/11 Freedom Beacon Tribune (smirk)", were he cornered like this. Then, when Katie Couric says, "I don't think that's a real newspaper", you begin ranting about "Gotcha Journalism" and blame the media for elitism. Come on girl, it's basic Republican lying that's needed here. We know you can do better. After all, you keep a straight face every day as you repeat your favorite line about Joe Biden being an old-time Washington hack while you stand next to this guy:
