"What if somebody did one with this kind of humor on Obama and his daughters?" asked Jim Cash of Chattanooga, Tenn. "What an uproar there would be. This line of humor is tasteless and moronic and about as low as they could go. There simply must be an uproar over this. We cannot let this just pass."

While the skit may have been aimed at the MSM, the lines could have been toned down a bit to something not involving the kids and that particular subject matter.

NBC and General Electric need to be totally boycotted. After all, GE is supplying materials to Iran. Why do we let these people remain in business?

You do NOT seem to understand the 'RULES' for the MSM in this campaign.

Rule 1 - The MSM canNOT even make fun of Hussein, much less say anything this disgusting or outrageous.

Rule 2 - The MSM (and the democratic party) can smear, libel, attack, humiliate, lie about or just plain make fun of any Republican--as long as the goal is to completely politically DESTROY that candidate or his/her family. Nothing personal--it's just business.

The sooner that we all understand the 'RULES'--the easier it will be on everyone.

Incest has been committed by grown men on women, girls and infants in the ages of 6,7 months( some younger). INCEST is not FUNNY!

Short of going after SNL’s advertisers there’s nothing you can do. If you write the network, that just confirms people are watching the show. which is what you want.

Is it possible to do an SNL parody on you-tube? Freep the parody just like polls. Maybe the huge number of hits will attract attention.

The title of the World Net Daily article was highly misleading. When I first saw it I was utterly disgusted by SNL. I wasn’t interested in seeing the skit because I believed it was just another horrid hit piece on Palin. But, after hearing otherwise, I actually viewed the skit (unlike so many who are railing against it), and it was immediately obvious to me that whoever wrote the World Net Daily article either had not taken the time to view the video themselves or was more interested in putting up a sensationalistic headline to attract readers. Folks, the SNL skit was top notch SATIRE. Its target was not Palin or her husband, but the New York Times and its arrogant and elitist big city journalists who think they know everything but are extremely ignorant of the people who live in “less important” and “less valuable” places in the country. In the skit an over-the-top wild accusation is thrown out with no evidence provided whatsoever, but the NYT plans to send a huge team of investigative journalists to Alaska to prove the unsubstantiated claim. Which is exactly the stuff the New York Times is guilty of. The skit was masterful. It was on par with the classic SNL skit about the Clarence Thomas hearings where a bunch of blow-hard senators are grilling Clarence Thomas while indicating their own objectionable proclivities in the process. I know that some of you don’t get satire, but please realize that this skit is a hit piece on the Left. Be happy that millions of people saw it.

While SNL should not have gone down the road of incest, the skit itself was a slap at the drive-by media.

You don’t attack underage children of politicians in a political campaign. That is over the line and beyond the pale.

The writers of the Saturday night Live “Palin Family Incest” skit could easily have used infidelity rumors aimed at Gov. Palin and her husband Todd as a back drop for the NY Times slam.

Instead they went out of their way to drag in under age female innocents with the writing help of a Democratic candidate for Minnesota’s Federal Senate seat, AL Frankin.

To bring up and “culturally legitimize” a discussion of incest between Todd Palin and his daughters Bristol, Willow, and Piper on SNL is to subject them to endless questions from their peers and reporters for the rest of their lives about their relationship with their father.

In Bristol’s case the parentage of her child will be called into question, again.

To those who think this won’t happen, please see jokes about Justice Clarence Thomas and Coke cans, Har, Har Har...

To subject innocents to that kind of long term, unnecessary, verbal assault “for a laugh” is Evil. To do so for political gain and power...is more than just Evil.

That the SNL writers chose to do so demonstrates that they have a hole where their souls should be. An aching hole that they have to fill with other people’s pain, just to feel alive.

Every Saturday @ 11:30 p.m. I await with unbridled anticipation just a glimpse of Goddess Tina Fey, surrounded by her gut-busting comedy troupe, in order for my week to completed. Unless this happens, I am not a complete man. In order to make it thru the week until my next chance at SNL, I will watch “The Daily Show” or some other “hot” show the liberal elite tell me to watch. -sarc
