Just think about it. Joe Scarborough got an email ordering him to stop being an a$$hole. Can you imagine the message that SNL received about their skit last week.
They are probably wishing it was only a horse’s head in the bed of the producer.
Ha! Beat me Johnnie. But I posted a link, which took longer!
Are you in Georgia yet?
Saw the SNL skit too. Agree, it fell on the floor like a lead balloon. Appeared to be too painful to complete the skit, thus it ended abruptly.
Nowadays? People just yawn. We're at war; our troops are getting killed while being told to ease up on the poor enemy, and meanwhile the Left wants to use them as a grand social experiment to promote homosexuality.
And good Americans are accepting this?
I’ve really become dispirited lately. Seems as if we are on a downward spiral that will neve end.
Thanks for the ping AB! Dancing around the Nobel Farce Prize should be interesting....

I see Clinton and Gates will be on. Their mission: to justify the Peace Prize and make Obama look like he has good reasons for delaying on Afghanistan.
I am telling you guys, that Cap and Trade is not only going to increase the cost of energy. It is going to create massive federal bureaucracy in order to implement it.
I read quite a bit of the bill the House passed. They are going to be setting up “environmental centers” at 10 universities throughout the country. They are going to rate appliances and give bonuses for selling them and to consumers for buying the most efficient.
They are going to establish HOUSING INSPECTORS who will rate homes on energy efficiency, beginning with new homes and eventually covering ALL buildings. You eventually won’t be able to sell your home without an energy rating.
The bill also makes provision for the DOE to establish limits on acceptable wattage for ALL light fixtures. I mean ALL, from factory shop lights to chandeliers. If you want brighter light for some reason (like...oh...SURGERY) you will have to file for an exemption with the Secretary of Energy.
They are even going to establish a “Department of Green Buildings” within the Energy Department.
While everyone has been watching this health care bill, the Cap and Trade is just as intrusive and full of shameless spending.
ANY Republican who supports it is flat out nuts!

Once again...barely watchable, except for clandestine code messaging from the left. Get out your Captain Comet decoder rings.

Tax Policy, Economic Growth and American Families
http://www.house.gov/jec/growth/taxpol/taxpol.htm
Real Revenue Growth Under Reagan Out-Paced Bush/Clinton
Contrary to the claims of Democrats, tax cuts under Reagan were not the cause of persistent budget deficits. As Figure 3 shows, real revenue grew much faster in the Reagan recovery than in the Bush/Clinton recovery. Under Reagan, federal revenue, in inflation-adjusted dollars, grew at an average annual rate of 4.8 percent, compared to 3.2 percent growth under Bush/Clinton.[5] After six years of economic expansion, real revenues under Reagan (with tax cuts) grew a cumulative 32.6 percent. Even with two tax increases, Bush/Clinton revenues are projected to increase just over 20 percent in six years, a feat Reagan accomplished two years quicker.
The reason for this is simple: The growth of revenues is tied to growth of the economy. Tax cuts stimulate economic growth, which in turn means that incomes are higher than they would be otherwise. Conversely, tax increases hinder growth and constrain economic expansion. Thus, revenue during the Reagan recovery actually grew faster than revenue in the Bush/Clinton recovery, despite the fact that Reagan instituted tax cuts while Bush and Clinton raised taxes.

So, this is old news, but don’t be bothered with the evidence, tax increases to follow a Democrat sweep of government
LOL. I was reading the post and said to myself that someone besides Miss Marple has read this thing.
Then I got to the bottom. LOL.
I watched it last night...total bomb. I have never seen one of their skits so unfunny and it didn’t even make sense.
I think the pressure was put on.
If Fox had a half hour SNL, they would blow them out of the water..
Nope. Still stuck in Minne-so-cold
This really shows how the MSM kow tow to the LIbs and Lefties...they could have nailed him and made him ridiculous...but then you can’t do that with Obozo, the Dear Leader.
