Most ridiculous thing about the SNL Limbaugh parody.
Okay we've heard Drudge's made-up lie assertion that there was "outrage backstage" over the Limbaugh OD scene, but the most truly ridiculous thing in the segment was...


...the very notion that Limbaugh would EVER even DREAM Of passing out GIFTS to all the kids - even the poor ones.

Come on, that would be 'redistributing wealth'. Santa is a COMMIE!.

6. What do you mean Santa's Red.? On SNL he was Blue! Even Rudolph
Edited on Mon Dec-20-04 02:26 PM by Verve
had a blue nose! If you didn't see the Santa skit on SNL last Saturday night you should try to. I thought that was even funnier than the Limbaugh part. The Santa puppet decided not to deliver presents to red states this year! It was really funny!

4. In the skit, Rush od'd and passed out by the toilet.


It was one of Robert Smigel's claymation skits; this time about Santa and Rudolph, and Santa's unwillingness to deliver presents to children who live in "Red States."

It was hilarious!!! Especially when Santa showed a map renaming the red states "Dumbfuckistan."

9. Before passing out on drugs...
Limbaugh took it on himself to pass out presents to the red state kids who were stiffed by an angry Santa. It all turned out to be a dream induced by "hillbilly heroin".

3. Outrage backstage?
Hadn't heard that rumor. That little animation clearly bashed both sides, and Rush is a known drug addict. He deserves as much sympathy and respect as he gives all those who disagree with him: i.e., NONE.

5. It's ridiculous to assume that the producers wouldn't have seen the toon
before it aired. Drudge is lying, as usual.

8. re: Drudge is lying, as usual.
Amen. I can't for the life of me figure out why people give that dude the time of day, much less active attention. Yellow journalism doesn't even begin to describe how discreditable Drudge is.

I swear the single worst thing that might have come out of the Clinton Lewinsky affair was the appearance of Drudge on the scene. I wish people would just ignore him and the worthless tripe he disseminates.

11. Whoever's pissed off about the parody needs a good head-shake.
drudge claims people at SNL were upset saying we didn't do that to Farley or Belushi.

Yeah, well, those guys weren't hypocrites about their drug use, either.

rush is fair game, and should be ridiculed relentlessly.

12. Plus, they're dead.
I'd lay off Limbaugh a little if his worthless ass had "assumed room temperature" as he so loves to say.

15. Buy 'em some 99 cent piece of crap from Walmart
Tell 'em you spent you whole tax cut on it, and that you prefer to buy crap made in China because they don't have overpaid Democratic Union workers like here in America.

16. Damn kids, always looking for a handout.
They even put up stockings, expecting something for nothing.

Hey, kids! Some people WORK for a living, ya know?!

(Of course Santa's a Commie!! You notice he always wears red?)
