   Plus, HOT!

   this is by and far her best work

3. Comment by MC on 10/1 @ 12:53 pm #

   Definitely a McCain ad…

4. Comment by S. Weasel on 10/1 @ 12:58 pm #

   Yeah. I’m thinking…essentially neutral politically. Pretty funny. It’s a draw.

5. Comment by Bob Reed on 10/1 @ 1:01 pm #

   Supposedly part of a push by the younger generation Jews to convince their elder generation that O! is as safe to vote for as any of the other Democrats that they may have supported over the years; as opposed to the portrait of hom that the eeeeeevil RethugliKKans are trying to paint about him…

   I wonder what the explanation of Wright, Farrakhan, and all his arab buddies is..?

   Course, here’s the sponsor’s reasons for O!

   Sarah able to be racist AND support Obama at the same time – no wonder she’s ‘proud of herself’…

   Is Nana fucking Matt Damon too?

9. Comment by Mikey NTH on 10/1 @ 1:26 pm #

   I saw that earlier. I didn’t think that she brought much of the funny to it. However, I am willing to encourage all of those young mane and women to expend the money and go visit their grandparents. I doubt they will influence the vote, but it will leave them with less money and time to do something politically useful.

10. Comment by McGehee on 10/1 @ 1:30 pm #

    Well Mikey, you have to admit, “It’s me, Sarah … … Silverman!” was worth a chuckle. Ironic irony.

11. Comment by happyfeet on 10/1 @ 1:36 pm #

    I like her. She’s entertaining. Some people don’t like her. Mostly girls. And for real I’ve heard a lot of Jewish guys say they don’t like her all that much. I didn’t really ask why though. I figured it was a thing.

    The mustachioed ex-comedienne vote will swing Florida.

14. Comment by thor on 10/1 @ 1:51 pm #

    Barack is now ahead in FL.

    Who says anonymous death threats don’t work on the elderly! Ha! I think I might have swung my state, which is well known for its active swinger communities.

    If O! swings Flo this election is going to be a freakin’ blow-out, err, more of one anyway.

15. Comment by Cave Bear on 10/1 @ 1:52 pm #

    That Baracky poster still creeps me out on so many levels…

16. Comment by Mikey NTH on 10/1 @ 2:04 pm #

    Oh – and if they’re lucky they may get a good meal or two out of it.
    That’s always worth it.

17. Comment by mgl on 10/1 @ 2:06 pm #

    Yeah, I think she’s genuinely stumping for Obama, but in a far more congenial way than anything else I’ve seen from the Left this time around. The rest of them have managed an ultra-creepy combination of religious zeal with thuddingly oblivious self-seriousness. Exactly the kind of thing they claim to fear in “Christianists”, come to think of it.

18. Comment by kelly k on 10/1 @ 2:21 pm #

    I saw her on some E! type of show talking about how disgusting Sarah Palin is–she’s a Barack supporter.

19. Comment by Slartibartfast on 10/1 @ 2:28 pm #

    …when a little man named Al Gore got fucked by Florida.

    That’s a hell of an appendage, Florida. About 350 miles, flaccid.

    “I saw her on some E! type of show talking about how disgusting Sarah Palin is–she’s a Barack supporter.”

    Disgusting? Disgusting how? I hate to break it to her JAPiness, but Sarah Palin makes Sarah….Silverman look like a sack of rocks.

21. Comment by Log Cabin on 10/1 @ 2:39 pm #

    I don’t think that all the leftarded hollywood types are really as much for Obama as they seem. They just want to work in the business. They are trying to stay trendy. They want to be with the ‘in crowd’.

    Not a lot of courageous types to be found living in the hills above LA.

    It’s possible the latter answers the former.

23. Comment by Puck on 10/1 @ 3:11 pm #

    I so don’t get the “Sarah Silverman = hot” thing. A male friend of mine, who is Jewish (and conservative) insists that she’s a babe.

    Though I don’t swing that way, I have no problems admitting that certain woman are downright yummy. Sarah Silverman, however, is not one of them.

24. Comment by RC on 10/1 @ 3:23 pm #

    Good thinking, Sarah, ’cause the Jews have always done so well, historically, in all the last socialist/communist/dictatorial regimes.

25. Comment by cranky-d on 10/1 @ 3:46 pm #

    I have a friend who refers to every passable female that will talk to him as “hot,” so one wonders what any man’s hotness scale looks like. I tend to be very selective on who gets the appellation, and I don’t think Sarah Silverman is hot. She is quite attractive, but hot is a special category of which she is not a member.

26. Comment by ducktrapper on 10/1 @ 3:52 pm #

    Call Lorne Michaels. Call Letterman. Hey funny guys. Watch and learn.

27. Comment by Republican on Acid on 10/1 @ 4:13 pm #

    I think she is somewhat pretty. Her face is really long though – sort of a horse face. Her voice is cute and without it she wouldn’t even have an act (filthy mouth with the little cute voice – seriously, have a female friend of yours with a normal voice repeat her jokes and they just sound childish). So far I haven’t ever had a gut buster listening to any of her comedy but I have chuckled a little here and there.

    She is of course what COOL white people like:

    I invite you to reconsider that comment.

30. Comment by ccoffer on 10/1 @ 5:50 pm #

    Imagine you are a wolf and you see a herd of people running away. Helen Thomas would be in the back unable to keep up with the rest, and thus be beautiful to a hard up carnivore.

    Is that a proof? hehee

31. Comment by Without All That Stuff, Jonas Sedlar (What The --?) on 10/1 @ 7:12 pm #

    All women are beautiful. Some more than others.

    You speak the truth. For the most part, at least. (See: Helen Thomas example)

    Women are beautiful simply by possessing soft skin and not having that weird dangly thing between their legs.

32. Comment by lee on 10/1 @ 7:53 pm #

    Silverman is NOT hot.

    She’s like Ann Coulter. If you like her, she is attractive. If not, not even close.

    I can see Silverman as pro-Obama, and doing this with the joke being how unlikely her older relatives are to vote for Obama, regardless of what they hear from whom.

    I didn’t find it all that funny, possibly because I’m not Jewish.

    Oh, let the denouncements begin…

    I might revenge bang sister Palin in an effort to make devil snakes exit her orifices. Outside of that sort of sexual savagery, don’t think I’d even arch my trajectory to sully her eyes from across the room.

    Silverman, yeah, most doable. The mouth on that broad is something, eh.

34. Comment by McGehee on 10/1 @ 8:17 pm #

    Yeah, I wouldn’t call Sarah Silverman hot. If I were 30-something and single and she was at a party with no date, I’d try to pick her up — but on the matter of hotness that proves nothing.

35. Comment by Answerman on 10/1 @ 11:56 pm #

    I thought “You don’t have to tell the truth … use threats” marked her as a pure Obama supporter

    As for hotness, she scores a 1 on my binary scale.

    Plus – really very cute.

38. Comment by syn on 10/2 @ 5:37 am #

    I won’t waste my valuable time watching Sarah Silverman (I never watched her before why start now) however, I am curious about one thing…. did she threatend to ’send over her black males friends to rape a woman if that woman visited NYC’ like her groupthink commedienne Sandra Bernhard?

39. Comment by B Moe on 10/2 @ 5:42 am #

    No, Silverman is fairly clever and is several miles above Bernhard.

    greetings proteins
    I have come back from the grave just like the original quell, because I have one burning question for Jeff that he will not answer in mail.
    have you seen part 4 of the Palin Follies?
    The very worst gaffe poor Palin has made so far……. She said there is a CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO PRIVACY. Isnt this Jeff’s bete noir, judicial activism? — Jeff MOCKS the liberal judiciary for “inventing” a right to privacy in the constitution. If you believe there is a right to privacy in the Constitution you are by their definition “legislating from the bench” — i thot conservatives wouldn’t even let a district court appointee get by with an answer like that, let alone a VICE PRESIDENT?

    Lets see you spin that, Jeff.
    and this
    and this

    I for one welcome Our New Liberal Alignment Overlords

    i thot u guyz might enjoy this– i sure did

    A little McCain humor:

    While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher, who’s hand was caught in the gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually the topic got around to Palin and her bid.

    The old rancher said, “Well, ya know, Palin is a Post Turtle’”.

    Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a ‘post turtle’ was.

    The old rancher said, “When you’re driving down a country road you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that’s a ‘post turtle”.

    The old rancher saw the puzzled look on the doctor’s face so he continued to explain. “You know she didn’t get up there by herself, she doesn’t belong up there, and she doesn’t know what to do while she’s up there, and you just wonder what kind of dummy put her up there to begin with”.

    Link please. The Supreme Court ruled there is a right to privacy, so in effect at the moment there is. Whether one agrees with that interpretation is a different matter.

    transcript

    do you think that will a question tonight?
    Gov. Palin….Do you believe right-to-privacy is part of the United Constitution?

47. Comment by quellcrist falconer on 10/2 @ 7:58 am #

    Couric: Do you think there’s an inherent right to privacy in the Constitution?

    Palin: I do. Yeah, I do.

    Couric: The cornerstone of Roe v. Wade.

    Palin: I do. And I believe that individual states can best handle what the people within the different constituencies in the 50 states would like to see their will ushered in an issue like that.

50. Comment by Sdferr on 10/2 @ 8:16 am #

    Sen Spector: Starting with the woman’s right to choose, Judge Alito, do you accept the legal principles articulated in Griswold v. Connecticut that the liberty clause in the Constitution carries with it the right to privacy?

    ALITO: Senator, I do agree that the Constitution protects a right to privacy. And it protects the right to privacy in a number of ways. The Fourth Amendment certainly speaks to the right of privacy. People have a right to privacy in their homes and in their papers and in their persons. And the standard for whether something is a search is whether there’s an invasion of a right to privacy, a legitimate expectation of privacy.

    SPECTER: Well, Griswold dealt with the right to privacy on contraception for married women. You agree with that.

    ALITO: I agree that Griswold is now, I think, understood by the Supreme Court as based on liberty clauses of the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment and 14th Amendment.

    SPECTER: Would you agree, also with Eisenstat, which carried forward Griswold to single people?

    ALITO: I do agree also with the result in Eisenstat.

    You convinced me nishfong. I am going to vote for the empty suit Alinsky communist because I might not agree with one Constitutional view of a VP candidate. You brilliance has overwhelmed me.

53. Comment by Sdferr on 10/2 @ 8:26 am #

    SPECTER: This was a 1981 memo to Attorney General Smith, December 11th, 1981. You were referring to a lecture which Solicitor General Griswold had given six years earlier and you wrote, quote, that, “Solicitor General Griswold devotes a section to the so-called right to privacy; acquiring, as we have — that such an amorphous arguing, as we have, that such an amorphous right was not to be found in the Constitution.”

    Do you believe today that the right to privacy does exist in the Constitution?

    ROBERTS: Senator, I do. The right to privacy is protected under the Constitution in various ways.

    It’s protected by the Fourth Amendment which provides that the right of people to be secure in their persons, houses, effects and papers is protected.

    It’s protected under the First Amendment dealing with prohibition on establishment of a religion and guarantee of free exercise.

    It protects privacy in matters of conscience.

    It was protected by the framers in areas that were of particular concern to them. It may not seem so significant today: the Third Amendment, protecting their homes against the quartering of troops.

    And in addition, the court has — it was a series of decisions going back 80 years — has recognized that personal privacy is a component of the liberty protected by the due process clause.

    The court has explained that the liberty protected is not limited to freedom from physical restraint and that it’s protected not simply procedurally, but as a substantive matter as well.

    And those decisions have sketched out, over a period of 80 years, certain aspects of privacy that are protected as part of the liberty in the due process clause under the Constitution.

    SPECTER: So that the views that you expressed back in 1981, raising an issue about “amorphous” and “so-called,” would not be the views you’d express today?

    ROBERTS: Those views reflected the dean’s speech. If you read his speech, he’s quite skeptical of that right. I knew the attorney general was. And I was transmitting the dean’s speech to the attorney general, but my views today are as I’ve just stated them.

63. Comment by feather on 10/2 @ 11:42 am #

    I love Sarahm but I just wanted to point out that Baruch does not mean “lightning” but, even better, it means “blessed.” If you don’t believe me, check out this wonderful article by David Scheim in the Washington Post (August 28):

    http://newsweek.washingtonpost.com/onfaith/guestvoices/2008/08/barack_thy_name_is_biblical.html

    or:

    http://tinyurl.com/5q2zm5

    It’s well researched, with enough facts about Obama’s name to impress grandparents of other faiths as well!

64. Comment by Fat Man on 10/2 @ 1:30 pm #

    Sarah Silverman is neither funny nor perceptive. If any non-trivial number of people follow her advice, we are all in a lot of trouble.

    Feather: Sarah Silverman is an actor, not a Semitic Language Philologist. Obama’s given name may be derived from the Arabic word that is cognate to the Hebrew baruch or blessing. Or, it may be from the the Arabic word that is cognate to the Hebrew word that means lightning. It would depend on how the name is spelled in the base Semitic language. Without knowing the Arabic spelling of The One’s name (something that could probably only be garnered from his late father’s papers) I do not think that we can know which it is. I believe that he has cited both possibilities. It is also possible that the name comes from Luo or Swahili and may be a false cognate.

    It really makes no difference. He is not a Muslim, nor is he a Christian. He is a Marxist-Leninist, and we are in deep kimchi.

65. Comment by Bozoer Rebbe on 10/2 @ 8:37 pm #

    Something about Silverman’s nostrils make me think that she had rhinoplasty.
