Other than the stupid G. Bush part the rest is hillarious and soooo true. I never saw it and found it great.

The Unedited "Forbidden" SNL Economic Bailout Skit
Apparently this skit was pulled from the web because of the potential problems it might have caused NBC. SNL reposted an edited version, however, we have the unedited version here. A tipster writes:
They have pulled the video and apparently gone after anyone who put the video out there, because the video has all but disappeared off the internet. It was up on multiple sites and virtually all the copies are gone now. There are a few new “edited” copies on the net.
Anyway, here it is for all you to enjoy!

I’ve watched that one several times since it first appeared. VERY funny, very well done, and right on the money. Even the portrait of George Bush is not entirely unfair, since he was far too “nice” and polite to his enemies, let them bash him without hitting back, and was pretty much caught like a deer in the headlights when Soros and Paulson sprang that surprise economic crisis on him.
It even echoes Bush’s economic crisis conference in the White House, when Reid and Pelosi took the podium and placed Obama in charge of the meeting, while McCain was made to look like the idiot that he was.
But it’s amazing that they ventured to paint Soros as they did. A great, historic skit.
