They absolutely demolished Romney in the opening skit though....they had the Obama character doing a speech admitting how much he sucked but he was the better alternative and he would switch over to a Romney or Ryan rally and had them being complete total idiots.
I’m watching right now. It makes me so mad how they are trying to destroy Mitt Romney with the only way they know how...trying to make him look stupid...how many Republicans have they done this to...Bush..Palin...now Romney. They don’t see how absolutely ridiculous they are.
I don’t mind these things as long as they make fun of the democrats too.
I’ll bet the comedians of the nation get down on their knees every night and pray that Romney will be elected.
He’ll be so easy to mimic and they won’t feel constrained from mocking him.
Here’s a funny story from years ago, but I’ll tell it, not really off topic too much.
First I should say that my brother was the comedian of our family and he was a pretty good mimic. He was rather a liberal but I think if he was still with us today he’d be with US if you know what I mean. He had a fake Reagan message on his answering machine for a while, just funny, not disrespectful.
Anyway...you’ll remember that Dana Carvey had a bit of a hey day from portraying Bush, the elder (which Bush got such a kick from he invited Carvey to the WH, iirc, since Republicans actually have senses of humor). I saw Carvey on with Johnny Carson who asked him how he came up with this great imitation of President Bush. Carvey said “oh, it’s easy it’s 1/2 Mr. Rogers and 1/2 John Wayne.”
A few days later I was telling my brother about this, but I could only remember the Mr. Rogers part. I said “1/2 Mr. Rogers and 1/2....I can’t remember!” and my brother said “John Wayne.” and I said “oh, you saw him” And my brother said “no, but that’s how you do George Bush”.
I feel like my brother would be working on his Romney imitation right now, and it would be killer. It would definitely include a lot of “Anne and I.....”
