Dupe. Archae Feb 2015 #1
omg, she has a mental illness. Dont call me Shirley Feb 2015 #2
Nah. She's just a run of the mill Teabagger. My opinion, of course. blkmusclmachine Feb 2015 #4

Understandable characterization Roy Rolling Feb 2015 #7
Not excusing her from her actions at all. Dont call me Shirley Feb 2015 #17
Perhaps because she... 3catwoman3 Feb 2015 #3
Oh wow, Sarah Palin but not old Vicky! mountain grammy Feb 2015 #5
my thoughts too. However, neither one them should have been invited. Duppers Feb 2015 #9
Hard to believe Sarah would show up without getting paid. mountain grammy Feb 2015 #10
yes, but any exposure gets her more speaking engagements. Duppers Feb 2015 #11

Brain disease is an affliction. Jackson is just a political idiot.

Calling her mentally ill excuses her from her actions. Brain-diseased people are diseased and it insults them to be lumped in with her.

Just sayin' . . .

All teabaggers have some personality disorder, imo.

maybe she is related to Orly Tates.......whatever happened to her anyway......

Vicky ain't even funny........she is just .....well, mental.

and yes I think Lorne Michaels did her a favor not having her on the show.......saved her further humiliation....

sheesh!!!

This rates right up there with her running for county commissioner to fight the president.

Even the farthest-right people in her county were sitting there thinking, "county commissioners do that?"

The vacuum (absence of atoms) in her head is equal to the halfway point between our Galaxy and Andromeda. She does apparently have plenty of hate and cholesterol however.

While Miller was on the show I thought he was pretty funny. I don't remember him doing anything except weekend update. I credit the shows writers for that being pretty good.

I can't stand anything he's done off the show - including acting roles. He always comes off as so arrogant.

Victoria Jackson just comes off as a really dumb blonde.

I think I saw her name on the pre-show guest list? I thought she was scheduled to appear?

I'll never forgive SNL for banning my hero Frank Zappa.
