Silverman "Great Schlep" On Keith Olbermann (VIDEO)

Sarah Silverman talks to Keith Olbermann about "The Great Schlep," a video young Jews to visit their grandparents in Florida and get them to vote for Barack Obama despite his "crappy name." She also calls Sarah Palin "as off-putting and gross as a pageant contestant but without the desire for world peace." Watch:

Sarah Silverman receives a lot of flack for her comedy but I love her and find her entertainingly humorous.

I'm $*^*ing Matt Damon

I love Sarah. Er, the Silverman Sarah, not the Palin one.

"The Great Schlep" - that's brilliant!

Silverman: The GOOD Sarah.

I like Silverman's effort to gain more votes for 0bama in FL...

But for God sake, can this woman sit still for a second ans answer questions? Why does she have to twist and turn her body? Jimmy Kimmel is a brave man to put up with this woman.

Sarah Silverman has good reason for launching her great schlep campaign. The Republican Jewish Coalition has been running a smear and fear campaign against Obama in Florida in the form of push polling. Here is a link from Politico describing it:

"What happened to the liberal Jew media?"

Uhhhhhhhhhh, the whole thing was bought by rich right-wingers. Supposedly because Clinton signed something that created a loophole that permitted such a monopoly? Either that or they were all schlepped to Guantanamo. So now we only hear what the current regime wants us to hear.

Whatever happened to them, we need them to come back.

[Retrofuturistic]

First of all, this is condescending to the grandparents; they have brains too and are probably the reason the grandchildren can afford to "schlep".

And furthermore, schlepping to persuade someone to vote a certain way feels like aggressive proselytizing. Isn't that what the evangelical fundamentalists do?

[JDJase]

Oh I get it, you're one of those people that feels all he has to do is take the 5 minutes to vote and you've done your duty for the next 4 years.

[fedupinfla]

Amen!!! My thoughts exactly!!!

[Leatherneck1775]

DITTO!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought the fine art or persuasion was a fundamental component of the democratic system. Aren't we supposed to try to convince one another? Isn't that all part of the process?

Sarah Silverman rocks.

[hannitizer]

Sarah... are you sure it was only half an Alice B. Toklas cookie?

Keith seemed interested.

[fedupinfla]

Didn't that pic of her w/ Gore look like she was about to go vampire on him?? LOL
He almost looked scared! LOL

Silverman rocks!

[imusintheevening]

She is making a difference in FL. Turned her on to some friends who love it and are having the talk.

[Sparty1]

Good for her. I always thought that people didn't like her because she was so upfront with her comedy. I'm glad that she's out there for Obama.

[obamanation31]

She's awesome! and do cute!

[pjburns11]

Gotta love Silverman!

She's so beautifully f***ing irreverent.
