'SNL' Has Been 'Hijacked': Palin Sends Message to Lorne Michaels Over Mocking of Wounded Vet
FoxNews.com ^ | Nov 5, 2018 | FoxNews.Insider

Posted on 11/05/2018 2:32:01 PM PST by ETL

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin blasted "Saturday Night Live" creator and producer Lorne Michaels after a comic on the show made fun of a Texas GOP congressional candidate who lost an eye serving in Afghanistan.

Comedian Pete Davidson joked about retired Navy SEAL Dan Crenshaw's eye patch, saying he looks like a pirate in a pornographic film.

Davidson, 24, giggled afterwards, saying, "Sorry. I know he lost his eye in war, or whatever."

While Crenshaw said Monday on "Fox & Friends" that he would not demand an apology from Davidson or the show, Palin fired back at Michaels on Facebook.

"With all the grace I can muster I challenge you to wrestle back control of the show you’d shepherded, but allowed to be hijacked by some pretty sick - and boringly uncreative - young men," she said of Michaels, 73.

"You’re going down with the ship, Lorne. Sad to see your life’s work and worth crumble under the heartless no-talents."

Hegelian strategies are the divide and conquer tactic used in the media by the Elites.

It means the UnipartyMSM creates false conflict or fake news to set the so called “right” against the so called “left” in order to keep people divided... while they conquer.

And this is why i brought up the fact that Meghan McCain worked on SNL and that Lorne Michaels was friends with John McCain. It’s all a contrived situation in order to trigger conservatives.

Here's a bit of reaction by SNL's Kenan Thompson - it appears they realize Davidson went too far:

"Thompson shared that his father is a Vietnam veteran and said he would "never personally" go there to make that kind of joke."

We had a post on “Sybolism will be their undoing”, and part of it discussed the symbolism of the gardinia behind the ear (available, submissive). I was not able to find it.

One post has a picture of 2 Arabic men, one with a gardinia behind his ear. Do any of you ladies remember where it is? It would seem to apply to the SNL guy.

I note that he is wearing a Tee shirt with King Cake colors, a sort of Mardie Gras reference. (I Think....) I never thought to much for Carnival.

SNL just needs to end.

But then what on TV doesn't?

That’s the ultimate distillation of the midterm vote.

Fine. You’re free to be a snowflake. No way in hell am I voting for one.

He’s beyond stupid, KC, my friend...

He’s a pathetic little weasel that can’t stand the fact that there are better Men out there than he’ll ever be, and uses his stage time to take cheap shots that he wouldn’t dare make to their faces.

He’ll piss someone off somewhere eventually, and wind up spitting out his own teeth.

Karma can be a bitch.

Come on. His entire shtick is that his father was a firefighter who died on 9/11.
