SNL, Leno, Letterman, and Fey are hilarious when they accurately portray the idiocy of the left - and, it’s funny because it’s true!

Other than Leno on occasion, when have the rest accurately portrayed the idiocy of the left? SNL won't hit Obama, instead tiptoeing around with a lame impression, Fey we already know is walking afterbirth, and Letterman? He hasn't been funny in two decades.

re: “Other than Leno on occasion, when have the rest accurately portrayed the idiocy of the left?”

They have all poked fun at the left from time to time and, when they did it was great because it was truth. I didn’t say it happened often - but, I have heard them do it from time to time. Tina Fey’s show “30 Rock” routinely exposes the hypocricy of left leaning ideas - but, you have to watch the show to see it. I already mentioned the “race card” bit. That’s just one of them.

I’m not saying they are fair towards conservatism - I was disagreeing with those who called Fey a no-talent slut. It just isn’t true. Lindsey Lohan, Rosanne Barr, or Madonna are untalented sluts - not Tina Fey.

Humor is so subjective - especially satire. Some people think Bob Hope was untalented - I think he was one of the greatest comics ever. But, go figure?

I remember a few SNL political skits that were really funny and absolutely skewered the left.

I remember the one about the banking scandal that had ‘Soros’ captioned as “Owner: Democratic Party” and correctly pointed the blame for the collapse and pointed out that only R's were (incompetently) sounding the alarm on this.

I remember the “China cold open” with the Chinese Premiere asking 0bama to “kiss me” “because I like to be kissed when you ARE MAKING SEX WITH ME!”. “I KNOW WHAT A CLUNKER IS!”.

They were also among the first to point out the incestuous nature of the press relationship to the 0bama campaign/administration. They ask Hillary pointed demanding questions designed to drive a wedge between her votes and the voters - then ask 0bama “Are you comfortable? can we fluff your pillow for you?”.

They ARE funny when they portray the idiocy of the left.
