I keep wondering when they will accuse Obama of being a war criminal and a torturer? Isn’t he still running those “illegal” wars over there? Those wars for “oil”? etc., When will we see the protests against this Imperialist War-Mongering Oil-Whore known as Barack Hussein Obama?
same here. I think I might have viewed it once since those early days. just thinking of some of those old skits still brings a laugh.
That was It!
The impression was lame but I had empathy for the actor - because he engaged the audience - he was looking straight at the camera, something Obama NEVER does...
He threw out a 'meatball' on Geitner,etc. being liars and the audience had no clue - What a voting block :(
That sucked!
.
But it hasn't been really funny since before Clinton was elected. They larded it up with political humor, that was almost always negative in its flavor toward Republicans. One exception to that was Dana Carvey's portrayal of GHW Bush, which was really cute, and not nasty at all. The President even contacted Dana and told him he liked it!
The opening skit with “Obama” was horrible. Completely flat and not even funny. I am sure I could have written a much, much funnier one. They were teed up with an amazing shot (the Nobel) and they crapped out.
Worse was the News segment where the news guy kept trying to insult Rush Limbaugh, making, of all things, FAT jokes repeatedly about him, and showing a photo of him about 80 lbs heavier than he is today. When he was standing next to Jay Leno on Jay’s show, Limbaugh looked thinner. Wake up and quit mocking his size.
The also tried to scorn Rush as a drug addict. Oh ho ho. Such subtle, intelligent humor. Do they rip Chevy Chase for his addictions? Belushi? Farley? I wonder which early SNL alums did NOT have an addiction?? But if you are on the left and struggling with addiction, you are a HERO.
The humor was sucky on that show tonight (I watched it a day late), except for the wonderful guy who plays that Italian talk show host. I absolutely love him. His James Carville is funny too. Give that guy more parts. Also, the mocking of Drew’s babyish lisping and Valley Girl style of speech was funny. Admirable when stars can mock themselves.
