Sarah Palin turned the tables on Tina Fey in this 30 Rock spoof


When Tina Fey co-hosted Saturday Night Live, of course she revived her beloved Sarah Palin impression. The former Alaskan governor has long joked that Fey owes her big time for the relentless mocking.
"If I ran into Tina Fey again today, I would say: 'You need to at least pay for my kids' braces or something from all the money that you made off of pretending that you're me!" she said in Live From New York.
There's no word yet on Fey's contribution to the Palin family's orthodontic needs, but John McCain's former running mate did just get payback of a different sort — a good laugh in at her doppelgänger's expense.
