How do YOU know that it wasnt offensive to Todd Palin? Are you saying that if you were a father with a daughter you would accept the comments made by SNL because they attacked the NYTimes? It shows the evil lengths the media will go to smear the Palins. It is indeed vile, but it is identical to threads I read on DailyKos over Labor Day. I posted on this forum a DailyKos thread alleging that Trig was a result of a rape of Bristol by Todd Palin. Had these things been said about the Obamas on FreeRepublic, there would have been 2-hour town hall "discussions" on Nightline and 20/20 about it, and elaborate charts connecting the poster with the McCain campaign in the Times.

Watched the skit, and found it to be a spoof on NY Times, but also agree that they could have left out the incest reference and been as effective.

Understand. Understood. However, the message they so smartly wanted to convey is probably not that well understood by say, the people(s)of Rio Linda. Message lost on the masses, and the hurt that could result is just not worth it. Kos-like yes. Over the line, despicable. Not funny, not humorous. Offensive in the worst possible way. If that makes me and everyone else who is sickened by SNL's twisted latest attempt at satire/truth-telling humorless, so be it.
