Sarah Palin Says She Was 'Duped' by Sacha Baron Cohen.

The comedian Sacha Baron Cohen has been called many things during his years of embarrassing celebrities on camera — and he can now add “evil,” “exploitative” and “truly sick” to the list.
Sarah Palin, the former vice-presidential candidate, said on Tuesday in a lengthy Facebook post that she and one of her daughters were “duped” into apparently appearing on the British comedian’s new TV series.
“Yup — we were duped. Ya’ got me, Sacha. Feel better now?” Ms. Palin wrote, saying she was a “victim” of the comedian for the Showtime series “Who Is America?,” which debuts on Sunday.
Ms. Palin said she was invited to appear on a “legit Showtime historical documentary.”
She was interviewed by what appeared to be a disabled veteran in a wheelchair, who she assumes was Mr. Cohen in disguise. He peppered her with questions, she added, that were “full of Hollywoodism’s disrespect and sarcasm.”
Ms. Palin “finally had enough and literally, physically removed my mic and walked out,” she wrote.
“The disrespect of our U.S. military and middle-class Americans via Cohen’s foreign commentaries under the guise of interview questions was perverse,” she added, before saying she was “purposefully” taken to the wrong airport after the interview and missed her flight home.

Oh HELL yes.
There’s another trailer featuring Cheney that I’ll have to dig up but it is a piece of work.
