Republican VP-nominee Sarah Palin was the center of a political prank when she thought she was taking a call from French President, Nicolas Sarkozy. Unbeknownst to Palin, even after six minutes into the call, the heavily accented gentleman on the other end was actually a Canadian comedian. After chatting briefly about politics, the bogus French prez suggested the two go hunting together by helicopter. The 44-year-old Alaska governor, an avid hunter, happily complied: “Well, I think we could have a lot of fun together while we’re getting work done,” Palin said. “We can kill two birds with one stone that way.”
