The Masked Avengers (Les Justiciers Masqués), a comedy duo from a radio station here in Montreal, pulled a prank on Republican Governor and dumbass extraordinaire Sarah "I can see Russia from my house!" Palin.  They passed themselves on as French Prime Minister Nicolas Sarcozy.  Unsurprisingly, she didn't know who Canada's Prime Minister was and who Quebec's Premier was.  It is painfully apparent that this woman is clueless about a great many things.  Quite the vice-presidential candidate, wouldn't you agree?

Nonetheless, here's a link to the news article published on MSN:

Quebec duo prank call Sarah Palin

And here is a YouTube video featuring the prank call itself.

Yeah, I'm a McCain supporter but not a Palin supporter. Since McCain is probably going to lose, I'm not voting for Palin in 2012 (which is the first presidential election I can vote in). I would rather vote Democrat than have her as President.

Good God, she's a dumb bitch.

Yeah, that was in my city's paper today.  Just listened to it.  One word.

Wow.

just watched this earlier this morning, made me chuckle quite heartily :D

I can't even listen to this, I'm fairly ashamed with America at the moment. It's like watching something completely hilarious but yet you keep turning away because you're embarrassed just watching.

Um, she's not that dumb in this conversation. She's just trying to be a nice person. I don't really find this stuff to be that funny anymore. Besides from Tina Fey.

I really agree with James. It's getting old. Do we need to remind you that Palin is smarter/more educated in politics wise then 99% of america? 

Player:

Palin is not smarter than 99% of America, and 99% of America isn't that smart. (Myself included)
We demand a certain intellectual inquisitiveness from our leaders--a base level of knowledge and know-how. A knowledge of world leaders, a firm grasp of facts that will inform their policy when in office, understanding of economics, healthcare, education, taxes, etc., etc.

Barack Obama has that inquisitiveness and the knowledge. So does Joe Biden. So does John McCain.

Sarah Palin, on the other hand, does not. The only thing she's known is Alaska, and I'm sure she's plenty qualified to be the Governor of that state. But at this time, at this hour...for our country's sake, it behooves any rational human being to vote for McCain for the simple fact that there is a chance he could die and she would be the President of the United States. Do you want the President of the United States of America to have to be told who the Prime Minister of Canada is? We're neighbors for Christ's sake--how does Palin not know who Stephen Harper is?

And even if I was to give you that she was "smarter/more educated in politics wise than 99% of America," that's no excuse--we don't want someone in the 99th percentile being President of the United States. We need someone at the very top of the class if we're going to get out of the mess the last "Sarah Palin" put us in. But the fact of the matter is that that is simply not true. Here is an individual that had to go to four different colleges to obtain a journalism degree--then, when asked what newspapers she read, couldn't name a single publication...and then blamed her inability to muster up a simple answer (hell, just say one...New York Post, New York Times, Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, USA Today, Wall Street Journal...problem  is, she reads none of these...) on "gotcha journalism" for her own failings.

Sarah Palin does not get faulted for answering questions, she gets faulted for having a very limited knowledge about things outside the issues she cares about. (I'm sure she could talk about her love of God and the right for the government to ban abortions in all instances for hours on end) Obama is not fake and he does not dance around questions--it's called nuance--not everything in this world is black and white. It's not US vs THEM, "you're either with us or against us" any longer. We've been there and we've seen the path it has taken this nation.

America has fucked up plenty of times in our history, but like many times before it, we always realize the errors in our ways and we become a better country because of it. On November 4th, we're going to put an end to this notion that an "average Joe Six-Pack" is needed in the White House. It's time for change, my friend.

I would like to do this to a Canadian politician - but oh yeah, I don't know any, and no one would care if I did anyway.

Already posted with a transcript.

If McCain dies i'm going to move to Canada.

I think that if you're not of voting age, you should just keep your immature thoughts to yourselves.

We all know she sucks. Let us just hope she wins.

"I really agree with James. It's getting old. Do we need to remind you that Palin is smarter/more educated in politics wise then 99% of america? Also funny how she gets faulted for answering questions, and being herself. When Obama is fake, he dances around questions, and does what he is told. "

Haha, haveta give that a listen. I'd say we're screwed even without McCain dying though :D

I heard parts of this interview today.......... don't worry, it will all be over tomorrow.

@

I can see Russia from my house! :3

she is....quite stupid...

This prank is taken out of proportion, but god Gyanks, could you stop spouting out your fucking views in everyone's blog. It's really getting old, and your attacks on Obama are stupid. Now I like to stop, and be a little more mature. Thanks in advance.
And all I am going to say, is that there is a difference between a French accent and a Quibeican, and its QUITE obvious.

Oh geez...I heard about this on the TV, but I hadn't actually heard the call...She's such an idiot...God help us indeed.

Gen Warbuff:

I'm not running for the second highest office in the world--she is. Given that fact, she better be interested and care about the economy, health care, the War in Iraq, tax policy, education and so on--trouble is that she's not and cannot form a cogent argument about any of these topics. For example here is her thoughts on the War in Iraq:

"Pray for our military men and women who are striving to do what is right. Also, for this country, that our leaders, our national leaders, are sending [U.S. soldiers] out on a task that is from God. That's what we have to make sure that we're praying for, that there is a plan and that plan is God's will."

Apparently all we need to do is pray to God that he'll get us out of it, and it'll happen. Pray to God that our financial markets don't collapse, and all will be better. Pray to God the kids of America get a good education, and all will be better. Pray to God that everyone has access to affordable health care, and all will be better.

You get the idea.

I heart Art.

Jeez. Once again, giyanks22 comes on here and spews out more ignorant crap. Give me a fucking break.

@Kenshin:

I know. I was going to respond, but there's not really much use in arguing with a KKK member.

Why can't we all just do this:

Don't vote for either McCain or Obama, and let's all just put ourselves in a self-inflicted coma 'til 2012. That'll solve the "I CAN HAZ OBAMAAAA!" v.s "MCCAIN SUKZ BALLS!" crap.
