I wasn't all that enamored with the teen murder suspect, but Michael and Colin are always worth watching.

Yes, I know: your bit was satire. And it got some laughs. But consider two -- or even six -- more years of "monkey this up" and "cotton-pickin' important" comments.
Why does SNL need to try to be "politically correct"? and pander to republicans? Don't they know what is going on? In my view, they do a disservice to the country.
