John Cleese – spiteful, liberal twit.

Sarah Palin wasn't up to snuff in John's mind. Election of Ba-rak Obarmer, was vital because the world was treating America a little like the village idiot of the international community. When the U.S. elected George W. Bush the first time the world thought it was probably stolen. Americans really put their foot in it by reelecting Bush. The horror, and the rest of the world was FLABergasted.

This could almost be fixed in the snap of a finger by electing Obama because this would indicate that America's not a backwoods, redneck, racist society.

Sarah Palin (derisive cackle) is a parrot, you see, who's had to be trained to make speeches in public and so many people are taken in by her.

Sarah's experience in local and state politics, that is to say, her phenomenal success in local and state politics on her own merits and which involved her taking on and trouncing the Alaska establishment single-handed, couldn't possibly enable her to string two sentences of her own together without Darth Cheney providing training sessions to bring her up to speed.

It's an ugly side of Mr. Cleese, a highly creative and entertaining man in his day, whose views reveal an ignorant snobbery and a corrosive idea in his bosom of America the backwoods, redneck, racist, radioactive, polluted, FoxNewsified Slobovia. If only suave Europeans and twit Brit creatives had a better opinion of us peasants:



Here's a prediction: when things get dicey in Britain, old John will be knocking at our door begging for a chance to clean off our redneck boots.

How does one say, "Please, I beg you. Please let me and my family into your filthy country" in French? Top drawer types like John could probably say it proply without training of any sort. But one thing we know for a fact -- he'll say it in pig Latin, Swahili, Swedish or Esperanto, or by picking Scrabble tiles with his nose. And he'll say it with conviction.
