1. It showed Obama not knowing what to do in a crisis

he had to call Hillary and ask for her advice! Very affective and realistic,IMHO.

[Quixote1818]

2. It was supposed to be a Hillary Clinton ad. It was making fun of Hillary making fun of Obama. nt

[buff2]

3. To me,it showed Obama doesn't know

JACK SHIT! They portrayed that very well.

[Colobo]

4. It potrayed Hillary as a desperate politician

trying to do anything to win, and it is true. You know it is.

[maddiejoan]

8. It poked fun at both of them

and I found it found it wickedly funny :)

11. you're right

it did.

[Seabiscuit]

15. Yes, it did, and yes it was.

Aside from all the obvious silliness about Obama (having to write down the names of our "traditional allies", Britain, France, and Germany, so he can remember their names, etc.) it shows Hillary alone in bed (where's Bill?) with gobs of white goo on her face, showing off her "experience" by knowing where the red button is located on the heater that turns the heat on in the White House, simply because she lived there for 8 years. At least it didn't show Obama hitting the wrong red button.

6. Right, realistic...

In Simpleton where most Clinton supporters dwell, Hillary is a foreign policy genius and Obama is a bumbling idiot. She's good, He's bad, end of story. Enjoy the hard, cold, realism of defeat.


BTW that skit sucked ass, it went on forever, got very few laughs, and reminded me of the "comedy" on Fox's answer to The Daily Show.

5. It wasn't very funny. It was making fun of Hillary more than Obama

But, it was poorly written and like most SNL skits it went on way too long.

7. Do Obama Fanatics have ANY sense of humor at all?

it's COMEDY

[taterguy]

9. Does anyone with a sense of humor still watch Saturday night Live?

13. the funniest thing I've seen on network TV was on Letterman

16. Actually, It Was Quite Funny, And Though Sarcastic Towards Hillary, Friggin SKEWERED Obama.

I'm amazed at how off some people's perception is as it relates to that ad.

It was sarcastic towards both of them for sure, and they were both targets. But Obama definitely got the worse end of that stick.

Frankly, I found it hilarious!

10. Their very best skit

was showing Cheney riding a bomb, like Slim Pickens ala Dr. Stranglove...
THAT was knee slappin hilarious!

[Not the Only One]

12. It was another SNL Obama hitjob in disguise as an anti-Hillary jab

It brought up all the same stupid things that the Hillary campaign has been saying about Obama, and was basically the equivalent of being an attorney and purposefully having point after point being stricken from the record after the jury has already been poisoned by hearing it. It played on the fears that Hillary wants to use to win Pennsylvania and win the nomination: You don't know anything about Obama, America. He's a nicotine addict who has to smoke because he freaks out over any crisis that comes up. He is black and he's dopey, so he will appoint fellow black man Al Sharpton as Secretary of State. He can't be trusted to run the country. We'd be a laughingstock in the world. Other nations would take advantage of us. Hillary knows everything. She's the smartest person on the planet. We must elect Hillary if we want to be safe. Elect Hillary or we'll all die!!!

It's more Rovian manipulation and the skit was probably written by Howard Wolfson.

[whatchamacallit]

14. Exactly how I perceived it as well. Incredibly transparent for something so dense.

Fuck GE!

[DearAbby]

17. It was only a skit....poorly written one at that

I tuned in just long enough to watch the opening. I giggled in a couple places, then turned it off to watch a movie I had rented instead.

I don't watch SNL much anymore, they've lost their edge years ago.

18. The show is really bad now, especially since Ferrell left.

19. SNL = Still Not Laughing.
