Amy Poehler is amazing. It would have been more amazing if Palin did it herself though. But really, I laughed so hard. A great Weekend Update!
ETA: I suppose I should add the opening sketch as well because I love me some Tina Fey!

I saw it last night too. Definitely thought she’d do more though. But Tina Fey was hilarious as always in the opening!

The rap was hilarious! Amy Pohler was amazing. Also–the Walburg skit was great.

Amy Poehler and Tina Fey were hilarious? But Sarah Palin? I think Tina Fey does a much better Sarah Palin

Thanks for linking these. I didn’t see them last night. The rap was hysterical. If I was Gov. Palin I would not have been able to sit through that bobbing my head.

I loved that they got Mark Wahlberg to come on.

I LOVED Tina Fey… and the Amy Pohler rap was awesome. Palin herself, not so much.

At least Palin seems to kind of have a sense of humor about herself. I think my favorite thing, overall, is how little Tina Fey actually has to make up in order to impersonate her.

Tina Fey seriously cracks me up. It’s just so dead on. The rap was AWESOME and Amy P is killing it being nearly 9 months pregnant. I hate to say it but it did make me like Palin a little bit, but I’m still not voting for her.

I’ve gotta say, she’s not completely rhythmically challenged.
“ESKIMOS! ESKIMOS! ICE COLD! SUPER COLD!” Brilliant.

I’m not going to lie, I was a little disappointed by this. The opening skit was okay, but the rap, meh.

LOL! Great show Saturday and definitely a ratings booster!
Amy’s rap was high-larious!! I thought Sarah Palin would have done more (at least done one verse) but I didn’t really care. I was too busy enjoying Amy Poehler and it probably would not have been as funny if Sarah did it.
And yes, I was happy to see Mark Wahlberg on there. The “Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals” skit was too funny. He sounded just like Mark!

I loved the rap skit! Obviously, I would have keeled over laughing if Sarah Palin had done the whole rap. I’m dying to know how that would have turned out.
I love both Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. I’ve got to add “Baby Mama” to my Netlix queue!

Call me crazy but I swear Palin had an Adam’s Apple in that first video. Am I uncovering a right wing conspiracy???

Sarah Palin really didn’t, well, do anything.
I nearly peed myself at the rap, though. Too funny.
