Was Palin’s appearance on Leno any good? Ask Jon Stewart

The latest Palin “controversy” that has all the PDS sufferers talking is that the Leno show supposedly piped in laughter to make Palin’s jokes appear funnier than they were.  A Palin hater on Daily Kos who claimed he was in the audience started the “controversy”. This Palin hater is also aggressively hawking an anti-Palin coloring book. Needless to say, this “controversy” was tramped down by other eyewitness accounts.

If we really want to know if Palin’s appearance on Leno was any good, why not ask a professional comedian? As luck would have it, professional comedian Jon Stewart has already given his critique.

So a professional comedian, who is not a right-winger by any stretch of the imagination, thought Palin’s performance was good. That pretty much tells us how much of currency we should give this ”controversy”.

She was funny! :O)

michael stinson is a liar. I can't believe mediaite picked up the Dkos story as truth. They are forever disgraced, IMHO.

Responding to Micheal Stinson’s claims on the political Web site Daily Kos, NBC said Friday that “neither the audio nor the laughs were enhanced for Sarah Palin’s segments on ‘The Tonight Show’ ” this past Tuesday.
