Palin, Sarkozy, plan hunting trip
p2pnet news view | P2P:- “This is Becksy.”
Becksy? Yup. An aide to governor Palin.
Then, ” ‘ello Becksy, this is Franco Bria. I’m with president Sarkozy (as in Nicolas ‘Three Strikes’ Sarkozy) on the line.”
Wow! Hot diggity! The president of France wants to talk to Sarah Palin !
A few panic stricken seconds as Becksy hands the phone over to Sarah and:
“This is Sarah …… Helllllo ……”
Sarkozy – “Yes, hello Mrs Governor ….
“Yes, this is Sarah. How are yoooooooo.”
The two establish the connection and, “You know I see you as a president one day too!” Sarkozy says. Palin laughs. “Maybe in eight years.”
A little later, “you know we have a lot in common because one of my favourite activities is to hunt too,” says Sarkozy
“Oh very good!!” – says Palin, “We should go hunting together !!!”
“Exactly!” – responds the French president. “We could go try hunting by helicopter! I just love killing those animals. Um Um. Taking away a life. That is so fun!”
Palin – “Hahahahahahah.”
Later, Sarkozy says his wife, model-turned-singer Carla Bruni, has written a song for Palin — “Lipstick on a Pig,” in English, and featuring Joe the Plumber.
The phone call, now on YouTube, is of course destined to go down in online history.
Because although that was Mrs Governor Palin, it wasn’t Mr President Sarkozy.
It was prankster Marc-Antoine Audette, calling from radio station CKOI in Quebec, Canada.
Palin officials issued a statement saying she was “mildly amused to learn that she had joined the ranks of heads of state, including President Sarkozy, and other celebrities in being targeted by these pranksters,” says the CBC, adding:
“Audette, who is part of the comedy duo known as the Masked Avengers, got through to Palin’s campaign after days of trying, and once she’s on the line, eggs her on with: ‘You see, I [Sarkozy] got elected in France because I’m real and you seem to be someone who’s real, as well.”
“Palin replies, ‘Yes, yeah. Nico, we so appreciate this opportunity’.”
