SNL may have jumped the shark on PDS.

Wait for the backlash...

There may be a couple Pat Robertsons on the right but the left is rife with mean old queens. Nothing more helpful to the republican cause than an empowered angry gay.

So the two conservatives that were still watching that propaganda fest have finally quit. The question is what took so long.

In the skit, show guest host James Franco plays an assignment editor at the New York Times at the head of an editorial meeting. During a mock assignment meeting where the paper announced that 50 reporters were being sent to look for dirt on Sarah Palin, a Times “reporter” asks,”What about the husband? You know he’s doing those daughters. I mean, come on. It’s Alaska.”

In response, Franco’s character said, “He very well could be. Admittedly, there is no evidence of that, but on the other hand, there is no convincing evidence to the contrary. And these are just some of the lingering questions about Gov. Palin.”

For God’s sake folks, this skit is a rip on the MEDIA!!! And how rediculous they are behaving!!! For once SNL’s taking a shot at the liberal media!!! Sheesh.

I hate it when “we” play the victim as it’s the liberals stock in trade to constantly whine about how offended they are, yada yada.

BUT - this is so far over the line that it may be best if it gets elevated through a libel suit or something. NBC and GE probably don’t need the PR “help” after last weeks stock hammering, and with O’Reilly nipping at their heels.

People who might “lean Obama” need to know this is going on, and the MSM isn’t going to touch it unless they think they can damage a rival, NBC.

Oh for goodness sakes, the skit was meant to point out what a bunch of butt clowns the NYT is for taking gaarbage spewed directly from the Daily Kos and DU and posting it as fact.

Kind of like those butt clowns from Hollywood do. E.G. ~ Matt Damon, Lindsay Lohan, Chevy chase. Clueless.

If this degenerate “skit” is what passes for humor or satire within the country today, then American culture is doomed.

Can you imagine the uproar if SNL had suggested that Barak was having sex with his children?

You know, I think this was intended to be an attack on The New York Times. The skit didn’t say that Todd Palin. Rather it said that a typical left-wing, Palin-hating New York Times reporter was willing to come up with a dirty smear on no evidence at all.

That’s the LOGICAL interpretation of the skit. But I think that people are right to get angry anyway, because this stuff is just too dirty and disgusting to be laughed about on a “comedy show,” unless they get a lot more specific about who is to blame. It’s too disgusting to be on the air AT ALL.

Would they run a skit about Obama raping his daughters? I think not. Would they run a skit about the Right Wing Press accusing Obama of raping his daughters? I think not, because what few conservative news sources there are do not go in for that kind of dirty, disgusting lies.

The problem is that this whole business is so damned disgusting, these left-wing lies and slanders are so damned disgusting, that they hardly bear being talked about. Certainly not in a skit where it isn’t really clear who is being insulted and slimed—the Palins, or the New York Times.

I think the liberals are targetting SNL really hard in order to distract from the truth of the skit.

The fact of the matter is that SNL nailed NYT to the wall as bunch of spoiled, snobbish, ignorant morons who are completely out of touch with the world outside of Manhattan.

The best way to indicate displeasure to a commercial enterprise is to not buy their product.

I don’t mind it when SNL pokes fun at our side. I can appreciate good comedy when it is done in good taste and this obviously was not done in good taste.

Whether it was really an attack on the media or not it still crossed the line as far as I’m concerned.

Maybe next week SNL will do a skit making fun of Sarah’s down syndrome daughter.

You have to wonder why NBC yanked the video off of YouTube so quickly yesterday. And if it was for copyright issues, then why are other SNL skits still out there on YouTube?

Isn’t it ironic.....

The voter backlash against the hate filled biased media will INSURE a McCain/Palin win and perhaps 16 years of Palin on the front page - that is going to leave a mark in these liberal lapdogs in the media’s drawers.
