Also, Krupo, the official transcript reads "Ass", I'm sure he slurred it to make it sound like he could have been saying "house" but as you say, the french accent would make it "'ouse" not "Ass".

I've seen three other transcripts of this exchange online, and this is the only one that says "ass."
It's also by no means "official." It's from DailyKos, an american liberal website, and the transcript was provided by one of their users. It's just another guy with nothing better to do than listen to that nonsense 15 times.


Exactly. And I base my interpretation on living and working with Quebecers, and knowing their accent.

It was, if anything, a delightful cross-lingual pun.

Also, interview news from: http://canadianpress.google.com/article/ALeqM5idPXM6GDkOzIX-_At5WVYrBoJ6JQ


In an interview Saturday, Audette told The Canadian Press it wasn't easy setting up the interview with Republican presidential candidate John McCain's running mate, and described the accomplishment as the pair's biggest triumph to date.

"It really took a lot of work," he said.

"We had to go through the Secret Service, the people in her entourage. It's the biggest coup so far. We're proud to add (this prank) to our top hits."

It took the pair, known for securing surreptitious interviews with celebrities, politicians and heads of state, five days to set up the call, Audette said. The secret to getting powerful people on the line? Time and persistence.

"I wanted to see how (Palin) was on an intellectual level," Audette said, comparing the latest prank to the duo's crank call with pop idol Britney Spears.

"You can see that she's, well, not really brilliant."

hmmm... did this make anyone else very uncomfortable?
... it was like someone picking on the slow kid.


If she were simply the mayor of Wasilla, or even just Governor of Alaska this prank would be just mean. But she's running to potentially be the Queen of the most powerful, wealthiest, most potentially dangerous country in the world. They said in a later interview that the only person they'd ever pranked as clueless as Palin was Britney Spears, and they figured even Spears wasn't quite as clueless.

Also, Krupo, the official transcript reads "Ass", I'm sure he slurred it to make it sound like he could have been saying "house" but as you say, the french accent would make it "'ouse" not "Ass".

I heard these DJ's on another raido talk show earlier today, they couldn't belive she didn't clue in. They prepared a number of questions and they expected her to clue in around the 3rd one. So after that one they had to start ad-libbing since they had run out of prepared material. They have done similar pranks many times before and the only person they could compare Palin to was Britney Spears as she was *almost* as clueless as Palin. They couldn't belive that her handlers didn't figure something was up when the president of France called in from a Montreal area code, just a little bit different than a France one.

I don't get the appeal of this chick. She's a fucking midget with the most obvious I'm-gonna-get-fat-in-my-late-twenties gene since Britney Spears. As a leg man I just don't get it.

Imagine Cheney trying to be cute and folksy.

if people want cute and vapid - i vote Paris Hilton or Britney Spears should be VP.

Interesting the song was originally written for Britney Spears to perform.

I don't know. I hear we're living in Britney Spears' vagina right now.

I wonder which would be worse, having the world's largest dick or the world's largest vagina?

Woah, thanks for catching. Damn domain hijackers.

Not the night, but the day.
Not monopoly, but trouble.
not the rose, but the thorn.
Britney Spears must DIE!
Not the artery, but the vein.
Shame, shame, shame.

To her credit, she cant hear herself, and shes doing an aerobic workout.....you try singing in that situation.
I dont care how good you are in a sound booth, you are gonna sound like shit.
I still dont like her music though >.>


I get more out of breath from rocking the fuck out during guitar solos and just having fun in general while jamming with my buddies, and I can still sing in key even without a monitor. This is called "bitch ain't a good singer."

>> ^MycroftHomlz:
I dont buy this.


I didn't buy it either, but that didn't stop her from going triple platinum.

Whenever I think of Britney Spears, I start getting a little worked-up because as horrible as she is, there can't be a single person who deserves all the BS she has to put up with. Then something like this comes along.

At least she knows the words.

It's very hard to memorize your dance steps and sing at the same time.
But still, goddamn we Americans are fake, and shallow... and gullible...
This makes me really depressed.
