That Palin voicemail was hilarious, no matter what side of the fence you're on. Sure, there's a danger that some people will actually take this as fact. One the other hand, satire is one of the great things about this country. I don't think you can do that with political leaders in a lot of places.

I was a little surprised that anybody would take anything seriously from a site called "23/6 - Some of the News, Most of the Time". That's like fact checking The Onion.
