John Cleese on Sarah Palin

POSTED BY: Dennis DiClaudio

Monty Python's John Cleese gives his thoughts on the new "funniest Palin"…

"It's like a nice looking parrot. Because the parrot speaks beautifully and kinda says, "Aw shucks!" every now and again, but doesn't really have any understanding of the words it's producing, even though it's producing them very accurately…

"I'm sorry, Michael Palin, to say you're not the funniest Palin anymore. But you're not."

  2. The real question is, can Sarah Palin do the fish slapping dance?

  5. This is exactly the same thing that Daily Kos said about her being a politician of the GOPAC age. She randomly shouts sound bites hoping one is relevant to the situation.

  6. One thing Cleese can't deny — Palin sure as hell can take care of bunny rabbits.

  7. Fish slapping and silly walks aside, all the Pythons are/were very intelligent men. I have to agree with his assessment it's what I was thinking but couldn't put into the right words to get my point across.
