{{cquote|Victoria Jackson is a former semi-celebrity who is clinically unable to process information, distinguish an argument from a random string of letters (or none), reason, or string words together in a sentence expressing a coherent thought. For this reason she gets to write columns for [[Breitbart]] and the [[World Net Daily]].|||[[Encyclopedia of American Loons]]<ref name=loons>[http://americanloons.blogspot.com/2011/04/192-victoria-jackson.html Victoria Jackson], [[Encyclopedia of American Loons]], 15 April 2011.</ref>}}
'''Victoria Jackson''' {{lived|1959}}<ref>{{wpa|Victoria Jackson}}</ref> is a career-dead, brain-dead [[United States|American]] [[conservative]] "comedian", [[Tea Party movement|Teabagger]] activist, and blogger.

==Showbusiness career==
Jackson was a B-list cast member on ''Saturday Night Live'' during the late 1980s and early '90s. Her most memorable role—a real stretch for her—was as an airhead anchorwoman on ''Weekend Update'' alongside Dennis Miller.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fIdrMXNnkE Jackson flubs a line on Terrorist Report]</ref> The character was known for her fucking god-awful poetry.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QCMMODevfc "Life of a Rug"]</ref> She was also known for her celebrity impressions and appearances in "Toonces the Driving Cat" sketches.

Otherwise, to "Weird Al" Yankovic's fanbase, she is known for her performance in ''UHF'' as George's love interest, Teri.

==Teabagging career==
Jackson launched her political career in 2000 by learning how to vote.<ref>[http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/vjackson/2010/06/09/im-mad-at-christians/ I'm Mad at Christians]</ref> In 2009, she became a foot soldier in the war against creeping [[Obamunism]] by joining the ranks of the Teabaggers. This helped land her a cushy position as a regular blogger on [[Andrew Breitbart]]'s ''Big Hollywood'' site. In 2010, [[WorldNutDaily]] allowed her "thoughts" to grace the pages of its website by giving her column space. She has claimed credit for her "prescient" prediction of Obamunism:
{{cquote|'''Jackson''': [...] I never did anything like this, but we have to, because the President’s a [[communist]].

'''Doocy''': Now, he is not a communist [...]

'''Jackson''': [...] You might not say "communist," but I watch [[Glenn Beck]], and he's taught me well. [[Red-baiting|"Progressive" is the new word for "communist,"]] but it's the same goal. It's government control of everything. And it's very obvious that Obama's trying to do that. I don’t wanna brag, but I sorta called it before he was elected and I was on O'Reilly and I said he was a communist. I got a lot of hate mail, but I got some that said I was "prescient," [[not even wrong|which means]] "a prophet."<ref>[http://mediamatters.org/blog/2010/03/26/foxs-doocy-learns-the-hazards-of-not-vetting-gu/162309 "''Fox<nowiki>'</nowiki>s'' Doocy learns the hazards of not vetting guests"] ''Media Matters'' blog. (March 26, 2010).</ref>}}

She claims to be able to play the ukulele and has released a not-so-great hit called "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWi182CMJY8 There's a Communist in the White House]."

She is also very annoyed by the TV show ''Glee'' for its anti-[[Christian]] agenda and "[[Homosexual agenda|shoving the gay thing down our throats.]]"<ref>[http://www.celebuzz.com/photos/glee-haters/beverly-hills-tea-party-270910/ Celebuzz!: Glee Haters: Victoria Jackson]</ref>

She had some nice things to say about ''...something...'' in a Breitbart fart:

{{quotebox|I took my beautiful fake nails out to my car and drove to the car wash. Hard working, friendly Mexicans made it shiny. I don't know if they were legal or illegal. I love everyone, but I think rules should be followed. Why can't they be legal? Is it difficult? You'll probably explain Amnesty to me tomorrow on TV, because you always know what I'm thinking.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20111118013024/https://scienceblogs.com/dispatches/2009/10/batshit_insane_quote_of_the_da.php Batshit Insane Quote of the Day].

Archived from bighollywood.breitbart.com, 23 October 2009.</ref>}}

Her behavior has led to suspicions that she is a [[deep cover liberal]] or aping Andy Kaufman. She denies these allegations.<ref>[http://wonkette.com/414892/liz-glover-interviews-victoria-jackson-andrew-breitbart-about-whatever Interview w/ Liz Glover]</ref>

==Victoria Jackson and the Muslims==
In late 2011, Jackson claimed to have been privy to a six-hour long "briefing" "across the street from the Capitol" where solid evidence of a [[Muslim Brotherhood]] plan to take over America was revealed to her in her capacity as member of the Department of Homeland Security's Washed-Up Comediennes Office. Oh, and Obama is a Muslim.<ref>[http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/27/victoria-jackson-muslim-brotherhood-fbi_n_1170790.html HuffPo]. </ref>

==Endorser of woefully incorrect medical "data"==
She's gone on record as sympathizing with [[Todd Akin]]'s sentiments concerning rape, with mathematically incoherent gibbering to match:
{{quotebox|How many times do people get pregnant from rape? It’s point zero zero one percent. It’s a joke. I read lots of articles. I know people, because I’m 53. I’ve know a lot of people, and I’ve actually never known anyone who got pregnant from being raped.<ref>[http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/08/31/victoria-jackson-todd-akin-rape-abortion_n_1847852.html Victoria Jackson Sounds Off On Todd Akin’s Rape And Abortion Comments]. Huffpo, 2 February 2016.</ref><ref>[https://archive.is/Bm8py Akin Finds Important Supporter,] Archived from Dispatches from the Culture Wars, 5 September 2012.</ref>}}

==Sandy Hook massacre==
After the December 2012 [[Sandy Hook massacre]], Jackson linked the shootings with [[abortion]] and blamed them on public schools forgetting the [[Ten Commandments]].<ref>[http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity/ex-snl-star-victoria-jackson-links-massacre-to-abortion/story-e6frfmqi-1226538010105/ Sandy Hook comments,]</ref>

==Get trolled much?==
She engaged in comedy of an entirely unintentional sort when she was taken in hook, line and sinker by a parody article in the ''National Report'' decrying [[Barack Obama]]'s spending July 4th at a mosque.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://web.archive.org/web/2014/http://freethoughtblogs.com/dispatches/2014/07/08/jackson-launches-into-tirade-over-fake-news-article/|title=Jackson Launches Into Tirade Over Fake News Article|works=Dispatches from the Culture Wars}}</ref>
