Conan O'Brien: Sarah Palin Killed Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

By PopEater Staff Posted Dec 23rd 2010 06:59AM

Conan O'Brien took to his gloriously decked-out holiday set on TBS last night to report some sad news: Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer had been murdered at the hands of hunter Sarah Palin.

"They updated it to make the Rudolph story a little more contemporary," Conan joked as an introduction to a clip. The video showed a harmless scene from the Rudolph TV special, cut with an infamous caribou-killing segment from 'Sarah Palin's Alaska.' See the clip:

Palin's caribou hunting stint on 'Alaska' saw harsh denouncements from screenwriter Aaron Sorkin as well as PETA . Sorkin's screed was particularly barbed: "You weren't killing that animal for food or shelter or even fashion," he wrote. "You were killing it for fun. You enjoy killing animals."

Deadline notes Jimmy Kimmel aired a similar gag about Palin shooting Rudolph ... two weeks ago.

Great liberal statement, only humans kill for sport. Now there is someone who never thinks that the teeth we have is for killing animals, and for the statement we only kill for sport, look out the windows of the cities you live in and see what cats do to rodents. they attack play and kill other animals and a lot of times there is plenty of food in the house to eat.
I DO NOT HUNT, BUT HOW DO YOU PEOPLE KNOW SHE DOESN'T EAT THE MEAT OR USE THE FUR FOR CLOTHING. I GUESS YOU WERE AT HER HOUSE??? I HAVEN'T SO I CAN'T SAY ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

Men could care less about what Palin says she is on TV. She is a man dressed as a woman. I thought everyone knew that.

i love hunting and killing animals, whats wrong with that, sometimes i eat them sometimes i give them away. sometimes i kill rats because they spread disease, sometimes i kill flys and mosquitoes for same reason. if cows where wild i would kill them cause i love hamburgers and steaks. i take vacation days to hunt so i can kill animals.. if you lived 300 years ago you would be doing the same or if you didnt you would be dead. i can skin a buck and run a trot line. a country boy can survive!

Most people could give two dumps what Gonad O'Brien thinks of Sarah Palin

By jpweg5

I saw the clip, took her 5 shots to kill the animal. Maybe she should just stay out of the woods. Obviously the story line about her being a great outdoors person is a crock !

By Andy

I deer hunt and I thought the spoof was funny. Kimmel's was better though.

IF ANYONE COULD TAKE THE JOY OUT OF CHRISTMAS SARAH PALIN COULD

By MAGOOS

Palin deserves all the negatives fired at her. The only positive she sees is another million in the bank and if killing animals makes it, so what?

and you DO NOT like that BECAUSE she is taking it to the bank and not you! dont like her? well, that thing you hold in your hand while watching Sarah~~no not the right hand which is holding your member~~the other hand holding the remote, USE IT TO CHANGE THE CHANNEL and watch DANCING WITH THE STARS or some other STUPID IDIOTIC show like that!

There're some huntin' places' that have have it all chain-linked off.
The deer run and are trapped between hunters' and da' fence. Some peeps says "It's unsportin'". This nation's always been founded on hunting, hunting Indians, Indians being hunted, blacks being sought by police, yada yada. Unfortunately there's no telling what Conan DID to IT FIRST!

By Ginger

Conan is an idot, not funny at all. what would he do if he couldnt get his hair dye! FREAK!

By LOL

What's really disturbing and not reported on in all of this is that she also killed BAMBIE !

By Tim

Conan is an idiot whose humor escapes me. Go away again. Get him off cable. Thanks

By mfnict

For the love of God, please let this woman run in 2012!!!!!

By TIM MCDONOUGH

so Sarah Palin can hunt better than most men! BIG DEAL she grew up in Alaska! That is what most of the population up there does! So she shot an animal and wants to run for President! You telling me that SHE IS THE ONLY PERSON WHO HAS HUNTED AND RAN FOR PRESIDENT????? Give me a break! They ALL hunted for fun and/or for food! She is NOT a unique person! They all did it!
I would vote for her BEFORE I would vote for that other idiot we have destroying this Country now! At least we know where Sarah was born!
PALIN IN 2012!!!!

Hey give it a bone......Sarah Palin is no worse than any man who goes out and hunts for sport. NOT every one who hunts does it because they want the meat to eat....
Conan....stop being so jealous of Sarah ...let her live her own life. AND I think Sarah Palin could do as good a job as Obama....what has he done really???

"You were killing it for fun. You enjoy killing animals."

How is that "barbed?" It's obvious. That's why killing animals under those hunting conditions isn't illegal...lots of people enjoy it.
