The AP reports that a Quebec comedy duo, posing as French President Nicolas Sarkozy, have successfully prank called Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin has unwittingly taken a prank call from a Canadian comedian posing as French President Nicolas Sarkozy and told him she may make a good president in eight years.

The Republican vice presidential nominee discussed politics, the perils of hunting with Vice President Dick Cheney, and Sarkozy's "beautiful wife," in the telephone call released Saturday.

When the caller told Palin she would make a good president, she laughed and replied: "Maybe in eight years."

Listen to the prank call below.

The Palin campaign issued a statement in response.

"Governor Palin was mildly amused to learn that she had joined the ranks of heads of state, including President Sarkozy and other celebrities, in being targeted by these pranksters. C'est la vie," she said.

My special American adviser Johnny Hallyday? That was a dead giveaway, he is only France's most famous singer. Shocked he didn't say my prime minister Mylène Farmer geese.

I thought she was all about having PRECONDITIONS before talking with a foreign leader.

Who should fault for the farce that is Palin? Willian Kristol must have opined that having an attractive dimwit in the White House, whom he could influence, could aid his evil neo-con designs. McCain, in his desperation to win, took a gamble and cynically placed the nation's future as a bet. Republicans, and their Christianist base was thrilled that one of their own was on the ticket. Still, I doubt McCain folks knew what they were getting into. I mean ... she doesn't even read newspapers, for heaven's sake! And, she is a Governor of a state.

Finally got around to listening to this. Cracked me up that she still bought it even after he brought up the porn movie. By the way, do you think she'll watch it? Oh, to be a fly on that wall. "Todd, I'm not that fat, am I?!!"...

Canada, thanks for your help in getting this dreadful creature off the national stage!

I'm amazed by the incredible amount of public interest in Sarah Palin. Good or bad, she's become somewhat of a pop icon. People are dressing like her to be and/or mock her all at the same time.

For instance, I found this video on dressing like Palin:

Could listen to this over and over again. Priceless.

By the way, she was oblivious to the existence of the documentery "Nailin' Palin". They really have kept her in a bubble. Bubble W meet Bubble Sarah.

I kind of feel bad for palin. Yes this was a little below the belt. BUT this is a campaign! She can handle it!
AND
More importantly- I truly believe that palin is being taken advantage of by her party. I don't think she knows what the hell is going on most of the time and is merely a hijacked poster-child for the religious right and for undecided women. I believe that she may even be a well intentioned (in her mind) lovely person! But this does NOT qualify her to be VP.
But what scares me more is the fact that her handlers are so incompetent that they allowed her to believe that nicolas sarkozy was calling her out of the blue! One stupid person is scary enough, but an entire TEAM of them is worse! These politicians do what they're told! If there is an entire team of people telling them to do something, no matter what they think they are likely to follow. I cite the war in Iraq. Congress was given false intelligence and what did they do??? We went to war over it!!!!
ALSO-
What is more pro-american and pro-freedom than a radio station allowed to air this?!
What is more aligned with our country's founding values than us being able to find this on the internet and listen to it?!
GO CANADA!

GO OBAMA! (sorry, had to plug this)

We have no better ally than Canada, always watching our back, and exposing the fraud Palin before it was too late. Thank you, dear neighbors, for joining the Coalition of the Critical Thinking.

Palin likes taking life from animals? she laughed when he said that. How "Christian" of her. ugh.

I don't like "jokes" like this. She is a candidate for Vice-President of our country, and it's disrespectful.

I'm not a fan of Gov. Palin, but this is wrong IMO. Her "handlers" have really done her a disservice, and it almost seems like they intended to submarine her.

Disrespectful?
What's disrespectful is the notion that someone this stupid expects respect while POSING AS a vice presidential candidate, that's what's disrespectful.

Don't you think it's disrespectful of her to pose as a capable candidate for VP? I certainly do. She's a total joke, and she should be exposed for the fraud she is.
