[WeDidIt]

Put your SNL posts here.

[WeDidIt]

1. Starts out with Murtha and Biden

attempting to blow the election for Obama.

[hexola]

2. OUCH!

[KathieG]

4. I agree...ouch indeed.

[jillan]

10. In that case - I hope

Biden and Murtha are watching.

[JoFerret]

26. Stupid boring overlong alleged humor

i.e classic SNL.

[Fleshdancer]

3. Yes! I need spoilers!

Austin Time Warner customers are still without NBC :(

[hexola]

5. beating us up over Biden and Murtha's big mouths...

[WeDidIt]

9. It is funny

Now Biden is being a prophet.

[Liberalboy]

6. Ok, now they hit the stride....

showing how stupid the argument is

[Liberalboy]

12. We will secede Florida back to Spain

[firedupdem]

7. Ewww......I guess I'm too emotionally involved with my candidates..

nothing is funny when it comes to Joe or Barack. I can't laugh and I'm mad at my husband because he won't change the channel! I'm going to my room now.

[LiberalHeart]

20. See? That's exactly why I didn't stay married.

[firedupdem]

23. rofl!!! You made me laugh!!! n/t

:rofl:

[grantcart]

59. it seems your comments are funnier than the show lol

[KathieG]

8. Ut oh...Deliverance reference about Western Pennsylvania

[KansasVoter]

11. It is sort of funny. Remember it is just a parody.....

And we usually get off scott free on SNL

[firedupdem]

13. I know I'm wacko sensitive! n/t

[KathieG]

15. True...I'm so used to our side getting the better deal on SNL.

[Liberalboy]

18. true, true, got to take our lumps...it is free speech after all

[thevoiceofreason]

14. Sucks big time.

The funny lasted only about 7.042 seconds

[PCIntern]

16. I don't mind parody of my people...but it wasn't very funny

Really...

[Liberal In Texas]

17. **Yawn**

Well, the opening bit wasn't funny...

[EastTennesseeDem]

19. I can take a joke

Unless that joke is irredeemably fucking lame.




SNL has gone to shit folks, occasionally sparked by the rare moment of creativity and inspiration.

[HughMoran]

21. That was quick

in the gutter in 5 min. :rofl:

[Motown_Johnny]

22. It wasn't that funny.. but it did make the point that the old white guys need to watch what they say

[1corona4u]

25. I fucking hate it when people make comments like you just did...

"old white guys". Talk about bigotry. There are a lot of 'old white guys' voting for Obama, and a lot of 'old white women' too. I don't think you want to play the who said what game, and what the color, and age of that person is...:mad:

[Motown_Johnny]

29. Sorry., I am also an old white guy... and it is kinda how they were portrayed

[1corona4u]

30. That doesn't make it any more acceptable.

Think on it.

[Motown_Johnny]

38. It was a comedy portrayal of two old white guys saying crazy shit.. deal with it

and chill out

this is no place for a flame fest

[1corona4u]

54. No, you deal with it. It was not PC. Think before you say shit like that next time.

There was NO reason to point out their age, or their color. We would have been just fine with their names.

[EastTennesseeDem]

24. Okay, this sex offender thing is kind of making up for it

[RollWithIt]

27. Looks like a failed SNL episode... disappointing so far....

Not exactly exciting.

[KsStorm]

28. Damn.

Where is Tina Fey????

[WeDidIt]

31. They put her on Thursday

so no Tina this week it appears.

[The Wielding Truth]

46. Solid Solid as Barack !

[EastTennesseeDem]

32. By the way, Two A-Holes isn't funny

SNL's policy:

If it's recurring, it's therefore funny.

[high density]

33. Worst cold open of the season

If anything though it showed how little there was to these Joe Biden comments that are being blown way out of proportion.

[Liberal In Texas]

43. "Cold open"...you know the jargon. n/t

[WeDidIt]

34. MAya Rudolph on now as Michelle Obama n/t

[EastTennesseeDem]

35. Dear God, this is gonna be a disaster

[Liberalboy]

36. LOL

I love the Obama Variety Hour!

[RepublicanElephant]

40. would beat o'reilly in the ratings. n/t

[scarletwoman]

44. The Bill Clinton musical number -- "Don't you, forget about me..." Too fuckin' funny!

:rofl:

[WeDidIt]

37. Okay, this skit is fucking awesome! n/t

[WeDidIt]

39. The Barack Obama Variety HAlf Hour

The lead is so big, they're putting on a show! FUCKING HILARIOUS!!!

[high density]

41. The Barack Obama variety show was hilarious

Made up for their lame opening for sure.

[elkston]

42. I thought the Barack skit mostly bombed, but the sex offender thing was hilarious! (n/t)

[nsd]

45. Other than Tina Fey as Sarah Palin, SNL has been pretty crummy recently.

[Liberalboy]

47. DID THE COLDPLAY LEAD SINGER HAVE VOTE OBAMA ON HIS SLEEVE???

[abbyg8r]

49. That's what it looked like to me.

We tried to pause it. All we could make out was Obama and something like BRK or ROCK after it. Anyone else?

[Liberalboy]

50. I rewinded on my PVR

It says

OBA
MAB
RCK

????

[Goblinmonger]

58. Not a big Coldplay fan

but I kind of liked this song.

[RichGirl]

64. Was it "I used to rule the world...."

I think that song is about Bush...post presidency.

Lyrics to Viva La Vida :
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sweep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing:
"Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
Once you go there was never, never an honest word
That was when I ruled the world
(Ohhh)

It was the wicked and wild wind
Blew down the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)

I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Cavalry choirs are singing
Be my mirror my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know Saint Peter will call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world
Oooooh Oooooh Oooooh

[That Is Quite Enough]

61. Wouldn't surprise me. Chris Martin usually knows where it's at.

[EastTennesseeDem]

65. Martin stated in Rolling Stone that he wants Obama

and that he wishes the whole world could vote, since America's leader affects the whole planet.

[EastTennesseeDem]

66. And he just said "Barack Obama" after finishing "Yellow"

[WeDidIt]

67. Last words out of his mouth in the last set

Barack Obama

[Curtland1015]

48. AHEM! May I direct your attention to this post made earlier today...
