On Today, February 11, exactly 47 years ago, a baby girl was brought into the world with no idea she'd someday become Governor of Alaska, a Vice-Presidential nominee, or one of politics' greatest gifts to comedy since George W. Bush.

To honor her 47 years, and the two of those years in which she's enhanced the world of comedy, we present to you exactly 47 seconds of her best parodies. From Sara Benincasa, Liz Cackowski, Mercy Malick, Tina Fey, Gina Gershon, and a doll, we've really seen how many ways one can transform an updo, glasses and a down-home accent into the funniest politician of our time.

you all probably already know this but: thanks to Tina, SNL had it's highest ratings ever. all she did was to write her skits around the actual word for word campaign transcripts.

I pray this woman runs for president, just for the comedy opportunities! I've never laughed as hard as I did during the last election.

If SP was as intelligent as Tina Fey, she might be somewhat tolerable.

Palin does a lot of good.
She makes people who can think rationally feel better about themselves.

You can have your own opinion, not your own facts.

Rationally? Surely you jest.

Her performance during the Egyptian people's throwing off the Mubarak regime should further convince the 56% of Americans who have an unfavorable view of her that they are right. A joke candidate at this point.

Yup she's a joke.
So was GW Bush.
That's why I worry at night.

Never underestimate America's ability to make a huge electoral mistake.
They elected Ronald "Bedtime for Bonzo" Reagan President....twice.
