1. After 7 years of cowardliness, why bother coming back at all!
They sat out the Bush diaster completely and now their back. Why? to bash the democrats.

2. Point well taken.
They made fun of Bush and his inability to speak the English language, but didn't dare touch his policies.

SNL is a tool, not even a shadow of what it once was. Stewart/Colbert are much better (although could be edgier).

3. Their biggest sin ...
Their biggest sin was their opening show this season, when they shilled for Hill, with the phony routine about the media playing favorites.

4. I thought it was kind of funny actually.
It was what HRC did, trying to use it as proof of some media bias and whining about it as she did that I shook my head at. You know, for someone who has been around the block as she likes to keep telling us she has been, she sure seemes awfully sensitive when the media focuses on her in a negative way or obama in a positive way.
