Darn that gotcha media:

Foreign relations never were her strong suit, so perhaps it’s understandable that Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin actually appeared to believe that French President Nicholas Sarkozy would call her out of the blue to talk about “unting” and “Joe le plumber.”

Perhaps her first hint that it was actually a crank call should have been “Sarkozy’s” admission that “from my ‘ouse, I can see Belgium.”

“You know, I can see you as President one day,” the caller cooed, in an accent like Pepe Le Pew.

Palin giggled.  “Maybe in 8 years!” she said.

Pepe said he’d love to go hunting with her.  She readily agreed.

“I think we could have a lot of fun together as we’re getting work done,” Palin told him.  “We could kill two birds with one stone that way.”

“I just love killing animals, take away life, that is so fun,” the phony Sarkozy said.

Palin giggled.

“I’d really like to go,” he said, “as long as we don’t bring vice president Cheney!”

“No,” Palin reassured him, “I’ll be a careful shot.”

The fake French president told Palin his wife, Carla Bruni, was jealous he was calling her. 

“Give her a big hug from me,” Palin said.
