This is absolutely, 100% indicative of YOUR bias coming through, not some right-wing, pro-Palin bias.

Show me where she said "I can see Russia from my house" and we'll go ahead and chat from there. I abhor Sarah Palin as a one-dimensional sham and as indicative of what I hate about modern politics, but you're just demonstrably wrong here.
I NEVER SAID ANYWHERE THAT PALIN HERSELF SAID SHE CAN SEE RUSSIA FROM HER HOUSE. I'm not really sure why you keep going to that.

Point out to me where I said that please, because I didn't type that anywhere. I don't get why you keep going back to the Russia thing anyway, but if you want to keep talking about it, that's cool.

Not 100% of everything used in the SNL skits were her words, but many of the words & phrases were actually used by her. The SNL writers didn't have to scratch their heads for very long when writing those scenes b/c Palin made it really easy for them.
I even linked to a video in a previous post of mine that shows a part of the actual Palin interview with the Tina Fey version side by side and with the exception of a few "ya knows" and a mention of a dollar value menu, and the part about Russia, Tina Fey used a lot of the very phrases Palin herself used in the Katie Couric interview.

You initially jumped into the "SNL" convo saying that the #1 thing people remember was "I can see Russia from my house". So what? I'm failing to see why that one phrase is so incredibly important. Unless you think that phrase was the demise of Palin's credibility, I don't get it, so please explain that to me.

Palin herself said so many things far more damaging than Tina Fey's Russia spoof comment.
