Heck I was kind of surprised SNL didn't attack Palin more. I thought it was pretty funny as it was and Fey is a dead ringer for Palin.

Secondly, i am flat out stunned at Jayni's 'soup to nuts' remark. THat oughta scare the H out of every conservative parent in the US.

When do you suppose they'll start seeking out John McCain and  Sarah Palin...or even Barack Obama, to critique movies, comedy shows and night-club acts?

Another scholar heard from. How is the opinion of a has-been comedian who hasn’t been funny since 1978 possibly relevant? I was curious to find out Chevy’s qualifications to lectures the rest of us so I pulled this from his biography on Wikipedia, a website with a well documented liberal slant:

"Chase was expelled from private schools like New York City's Dalton School and Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire. He did well at the Stockbridge School in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, and attended Riverdale Country School in The Bronx. He was valedictorian of his senior class and entered Haverford College, but was expelled (or 'separated') from it after one semester. He then transferred to Bard College in Annandale-on-Hudson, New York, where he studied a pre-med curriculum, dated actress Blythe Danner for several years, and graduated in 1967 with a bachelor of arts degree in English. Chase did not enter medical school, which meant he would be subject to the military draft only months before the Tet Offensive, at a time when public support was dwindling for the escalating ground war in which U.S. troops were involved. Chase was not drafted; when Chase appeared in January 1989 as the first guest of the just-launched late-night Pat Sajak Show, he revealed why: he had convinced his draft board he deserved a 4-F classification by "falsely claiming, among other things, that he had homosexual tendencies."

So there you have it. Another Hollywood blowhard who doesn’t have one tenth the class or accomplishments of Sarah Palin who presumes to sit in judgment of her. I’d say that I wish his career would be decimated but that ship sailed years ago.

"...to fund environmental education in the schools."

This is a good thing isn't it? Should ease the burden on the taxpayer. On the other hand, the burden on the waste stream is going up with all the crap parents have to throw in the trash when Johnny gets home from school. </sarc>

Whose opinion means nothing to me.Except for CaddyShack his movies were the pits.His politicals views are on par with his movies.Boring and a waste of time.

You have every right to say that you won't vote for someone, and you don't owe anyone an explanation for your own vote. However, once you enter a public forum and insist that others shouldn't vote for someone, you owe the public an explanation.

• If your explanation is simply a series of prejudices, you're a fool. If your explanation is bouncing another echo from your own echo chamber, then you're a fool. If you can't justify your explanation, you're a fool.
• But if you make your accusations in public to a journalist, and that journalist never challenges you or demands that you explain yourself ... then the journalist may not be a fool, but he didn't do his job.
• Geist is better than that. Or should be.

Chevy Chase claims that the media isn't slamming Palin. (Reality, Chevy ... Chevy, meet Reality.) But if you're going to make those accusations, the journalist should have stopped and challenged the comedian to give details. At NewsBusters, the staff offers evidence when they accuse the media of liberal bias. Liberal celebrities toss off these accusations, but the media never challenges them on it.

That's the bias. They get away with insults and never get challenged. So, frankly, these liberal accuations aren't worth the paper they're not written on.

Who cares? He was a has-been 20 years go.

I didn't like some of the jokes....the meth joke wasn't funny. Butttt I like what Gov Palin said in return......she thought Tina was funny and did a good job and that she dressed up as Tina for Holloween, good come back, Gov.   bravo

mom

And we should care what Chevy Chase thinks because....?  I would hope that Chevy Chase, Michael Moore, and Barbara Streisand would accompany Barack Obama on every campaign appearance.  Please, stand right next to him.  And, don't forget to keep making those insightful comments coming.  Try to find the highest profile media outlets possible to print them.

he is an idiot whom should just return to comedy(if ya call it that) and say bye bye. He, Franken and the rest have had their day in the sun and now it's midnight.

When you play a character, an acto has to have some level of empathy and an appreciation of who that person is in order to pull off the impression with any success. You don't have to agree with the character, but you do have to understand where he or she is coming from.

Dana Carvey did it with Bush 41, Phil Hartman with Clinton, Will Ferrell as Bush 43, and Darrell Hammond with everyone he's portrayed. Even Chevy Chase as Ford had an empathy toward the president.

When it's mean spirited it rings false and if falls flat. That was what happened with Will Forte attempting to handle the post-Ferrell Bush, and despite nailing the appearance, his impressions were woefully underwhelming, and he has now lost that gig.

Which is fine; he's better at "McGruber" anyway.

I thought Fey handled that very well. I mean, she was a lock to return to SNL and take on that role, wasn't she?

Overall, it was a somewhat weak episode. Michael Phelps was your typical athlete turned host, which is to say he looked very uncomfortable and it was a little bit painful to watch.

"Weekend Update" was skewed heavily against "McCain/Palin" - guess we'll see if that continues during episode 2.

The last time I heard from Chevy Chase was when Howard Stern reamed him a new one on his radio show. It was brutal and oh so entertaining. And, sorry, his wife Jayni never seemed all that bright.

At first glance I thought Chase's picture was Larry David. At least David cut loose his enviro-wacko.

Pamela Anderson, Lindsay Lohen, Chevy Chase, Jamie Lee Curtis, Madonna.........ugh.

Am I missing something here? Like, who would even consider basing their decision on what these...I can't say it....people think?

Truly frightening to think some would say "I'm voting for Obama because Lindsey is." Chevy Chase? There's a master of the English language huh? The only time he pops up is during the elections, like the gopher on Caddy Shack. 

... SHAPE OF A MOONBAT! Leftists from around the globe are on a mission to decimate language and logic. Perhaps the reason can be found here:   http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/HealthSci/Eating_veggies_shrinks_the_brain/articleshow/3480629.cms  Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for ways to excuse their witless behavior. Let us go to Lindsey Lohan for some more inspiration that the left is nuttier than a drag queen who bakes fruitcakes.   "Is it a sin to be gay?" Lohan asked. Answer: Only if you believe the teachings of the bible are the word of god, or that of a homophobe. Lohan on Palin - "Don't pose for anymore covers, you're not a celebrity, you're running for office to represent our, your, my country!"  Barack Hussein Obama and the Clinton's receive exemption under her pretzel logic clause.   (Sorry, the text layout is not formatting properly) 

The Hollywood Obamatons are getting desperate. what a pathetic bunch.

Nice how the clip goes three-quarters through..... Lord knows how long in the interview it actually was, before Chevy even acknowledges and introduces his wife! Or, was that his attempt at being funny?
Shows what a Hollywood ego does for you.

And is that picture supposed to be Chevy doing the Church Lady?
Sorry, Chevy, that's Dana Carvey's character

Look at Chase's career on imdb.com sometime.
Man, has it taken a massive downturn!

Chevy Chase hastes religious people with a phobia. I will call to attention his Law and Order appearance ranting as a character who was Mel Gibson with the infamous "sugar t*ts" line thrown in.

Chevy Chase is a multi millionaire, he has a family, has had more debaucherous times than Caligula and still the man is so insecure that he "needs" to a phobia to have a "daddy" in the White House to make him feel secure in Barack Obama.

I pity Mr. Chase in being in the 60 year category and he is so terrified of a strong woman, so phobic about not being man enough to not need a politician in a seat so that he can delude himself into thinking he is then successful to and so void of God's simple caring about others that he blubbers on like Tina Fey "doing all they can to Gerald Ford smear" a good person.

Sarah Palin is a good person. I will repeat that, Sarah Palin is a good person. She has never once in public stated anything like her attackers have even after weeks of this onslaught.

God bless Chevy Chase to find the Truth as he is an utter failure as a human. In His Name. Amen

Chevy Chase the 10 percent human.

How bad is this going for the libs? The people they are throwing out there to bash Governor Palin is getting pitiful. This is starting to get embaressing. Yuk Yuk!

The only explanation for NBC's continued over-promotion of serial no talents Tina Fey and Jimmy Fallon is that Fey and Fallon have some incriminating pictures of some high-level GE Suit.  The next time either of them say or do anything funny will be the first time.

As for the washed-up Chevy Chase...who hasn't been remotely relevant for more than 30 years...his "celebrity" roast told the whole story.  Not one of his contemporaries bothered to show up (kind of like the audience for his talk show).  Then when he made a sarcastic crack about how he was in a ballroom with a bunch of nobodies, one of the comedians piped in with "well, at least we're nobodies at the beginning of our careers".  Chevy Chase is just a sad, bitter, drug addled has-been.  Good riddance, junkie.

I will now use 'decimate' in a sentence.

Chase continues to further decimate his (non-)career with his unhinged, and frankly stupid remarks.

I kinda feel for Chevy, much like you feel for anyone else losing their mind. Only this time, it's in the public eye - even if it is on MSNBC.
