Stupid is as stupid does...CNN...often the king of stupid. Just another example of how CNN is such a cheerleader for the Obama Administration. I have a good friend who is very liberal...and was so very excited to vote for Obama...yes, I do have some liberal friends....he told me the other day that he is really beginning to wonder about the guy and thinks he may have "wasted" his vote. Hmmmmmmmmmmm...and, stop the presses...he is even watching Fox much more than he used to because of some of the "stuff" CNN and "the gang of O's Administration kissers" have been reporting and how slanted he thinks it is becoming. Gee, imagine that...it was hard for me to hold off on the "I told you so" line, but I was smiling too broadly at the moment (it was a phone call and he couldn't see my smile...too bad).

If this guy is any indication...the mid-term elections can't get here soon enough for me!

But...and more importantly...GO MEAN GREEN!

I guess it is no different than Fox News taking the Daily Show to task.

Yeah, that's kinda ridiculous.

Also ridiculous: I like Fred Armisen, but this, combined with the Will Forte (also normally funny) GWB is the worst run for SNL president impressions I can recall.

3:47 on this? really? If this were the BUsh administration, the standard "Lighten up, it's just comedy" line would be issued by CNN, while everyone in that newsroom snickered their approval.

Funny, no investigative report into "stupid" Pres. Bush actually having an Ivy league degree? About actually running an oil business, and then a baseball business? About actually leading a state?

Nope. Just the knowing wink and nod about how stupid he must be, because "he doesn't think the way we do, and we are sooooooooo smart."

Just another stupid thing for us to bicker abot that actually has no baring on life, politics, the world or anything else...

It is funny that this has never happened for any other of the presidents that SNL has lampooned, but really, if you think that SNL is the proper place to get your political information then you are probably are not the smartest person ever anyway.

[Quoner]

then you are probably are not the smartest person ever anyway.

Yup.

It got your attention and you proliferated the link, so by a result, they got more viewership of the story. Seems like the goal of higher ratings was achieved.
