A SNLIVE satirical skit of the financial crisis bailout. Pelosi, Bush and Barney Frank.
Actually, the executive producer of SNL, Loren Michaels, donated initially to Chris Dodd for the Dem primaries, then to McCain for the general election. Go figure.
They just don't want to talk about it.
We have a whole month to shove this economic crisis in their faces.
This was good comedy, it hit both sides about equally and had lots of background humor as well as the big hits (Pelosi fending off the second guy's hug, "don't tell him anything he doesn't know")

10 to 1 that is all we hear from NBC on this issue, at least until Nov. 5.
the Deets
that is actually clsoe to the truth
throw in Waters and Dodd and the Black Congressional Caucus and you;d have it
I like that you actually posted the SNL vid from the NBC website instead of You Tube. They always take it down from YT later anyway.
Yup.
This may mark the end of SNL.
It’s demise will be quiet and unobtrusive but the lefties in the “entertainment” media will see to it that SNL fades away.
I saw this last night and couldn’t believe it! Thanks for posting, I didn’t know how.
Heads up - this could turn the tide.
FOX is rerunning “Saving the Economy...” at 2 EST this afternoon and again at 10:00pm and again at 1:00 in the morning.
They ran it 3 times yesterday.
If you haven’t seen it, you MUST. It is a TOTAL take-down on the demRats regarding the Fannie/Freddie economic debacle.
It names names, shows clips, shows how Bush sounded the alarm and tried to get it reigned it, how the republicans tried to and had hearings - to be shouted down by the demRats and defeated with all demRats voting against, all pubs voting for reigning it in - led by barney and Dodd and Shuckster, how the 2 biggest recipients of the Fannie/Freddie were Dodd and Obama - how a ‘young community organizer, years ago, in Chicago, worked with ACORN to push through these loans for even NO income people - a young community organizer named BO -
This whole program is a total and stark expose laying out who - the demRats - brought this all about and how they blocked every effort by the Republicans to reign it in.
If you have not seen this program - you must. I pray they keep airing this until Nov. It may just wake some people up.
It’s an issue that all America is paying attention to, finally. This program shows them who orchestrated the whole fiasco.
I could hardly believe my ears when I heard it last night. Incredible. So far, I haven’t heard a peep of ‘outrage’ from the left. I think this scares them to death and they hope it will just go away.
I think there’s going to be some major investigations although, if we don’t give mcC/Sarah a majority in the Senate and House to work with, it won’t matter if barney et al are found absolutely guilty - they will NOT be forced to step down. Take the case of william “cold cash” jefferson, for ex.
email everyone you know to watch this and email FOX with KUDOS - the more response, the more they’ll air it.
Is FOX “Saving the Economy...” on the internet anywhere? YouTube, etc.?
It's an hour long -
We need to email everyone to catch it and TIVO it and send KUDOS to FOX - so they'll keep running it.
They ran it 3 times yesterday and will run 3 times today = just incredible! We need to do everything we can to spread this
BTTT
Is that Gorbachev in the painting behind them?
If so, maybe it was meant to be Pelosi’s living room.
the problem is the economic crisis was not even handed....the FoxNews Special showed Bush, and his Administration tried several times since 2001, 2005 and again to try and get Legislation through reigning in Freddi Mac and Fannie Mae. It is sad that even Republicans have started blaming the Bush Administraion...”lightweight” he$$, the Executive Branch can suggest but not mandate.
The democrats were he$$ bent on ruining America, and they got the job done. I guess Obama knows if you repeat that slogan against Bush enough times, even your enemies start to believe it.
I have seen that video and know it to be false. First of all if Fannie Mae spent 440 billion dollars over the course of 5 years it would be a drastic reduction in funding for the poor.
440 billion would be less than their budget for one year. I’m disappointed in everybody just believing Bush caused anything without investigating.
That's the "don't tell him anything he doesn't know" line came from.
It sure contradicts the MANTRA OF DEMS in accusing the Bush policies and Bush Admin doesn’t it.
