Video: SNL finally nails Obama

Sunday November 22, 2009

Categories: Entertainment, Politics

Absolutely amazing that they have finally seen that there is comedy gold in the terrible job Obama is doing as president. The skit is of a joint press conference between Obama and Chinese President Hu Jintao (content warning, it is risque):

One of their funniest skits to date. Next they need to do a skit on the jobs summit, they could mention the various summits he has had that didn't produce any results, they could also do a skit on his inability to make decisions.

Update: The Sarah Palin 2012 parody was also very funny. I liked the dig at Keith Olbermann :-)

I'll mention some of his accomplishments. First, he passed the economic stimulus plan. It has resulted in, and will continue to result in, the production of the things that help many people (for instance, infrastructure projects). It also has, and will continue to, provide jobs.

Second, he got more TARP money appropriated, which has helped us avoid more bad economic consequences. It has caused banks to engage in more reasonable lending practices.

Third, his trip to China, and the speeches and meetings he had there, are likely to help push China in a better direction. The two largest carbon emitters in the world agreed to work towards a successful outcome in Copenhagen. In addition, Obama and Hu agreed to continue their dialogue on human rights, with Hu specifically mentioning religious freedom and Obama focusing on freedom for "ethnic and religious minorities."

Fourth, it is very likely that a reasonably good health care bill is going to pass. Obama’s speeches and focus on this issue have helped this happen. We’ve been trying to get a comprehensive health care bill passed since the Truman administration.

Fifth, he has increased funding and focus on math and science and on improving the performance of U.S. students in match and science. Here are links:

It is important that U.S. citizens improve significantly at science. For instance, a significant percentage of U.S. citizens believe that planet earth is about 6,000 years old. That is analogous to someone believing that the distance between Los Angeles and New York is about five yards.

Sixth, he said he is not going to put the missile defense system in the Czech Republic or Poland. That is a great decision. Here is a link:

Seventh, partly because of Obama’s diplomatic, reasonable and thoughtful approach to governing, the U.S. is viewed much more around the world than it had been under Bush. Here is a link:

Although maybe this isn’t an end in itself, it likely will produce good consequences down the road.

Your Name,

Fight fair, Obama's idiocy cannot be compared to that of monkey.

So use some other insult towards Dubya.

I wonder though, how many people have been killed by abortion since this rabidly pro-abortion President has taken office? I'll bet it's more than all of those killed in the twin towers times two.

And of course, as Obama is bowing to Saudi authority, women are being hailed as equals in Saudi Arabia right?

How many soldiers are being killed and maimed while Obama is dithering? EVEN ON AMERICAN SOIL.

Obama is more like a sloth or mole. Or maybe a Rahm trained parrot. That would be a fair animal analogy I think.

"how many people have been killed by abortion"

none, unless there have been some botched abortions causing the death of the mother... or possibly more abortion doctors murdered by you right-wing fascists. after all, a fetus is not a person.

"Obama is bowing to Saudi authority, women are being hailed as equals in Saudi Arabia right?"

and bush made it to first base with saudi royalty with all the kissing and hand-holding. it was really sweet to see. but what is it that you expect of obama - to fix the world? well, i voted for him and don't expect that much. i'm happy with the fixes that he's making here in the u.s. of a.

"How many soldiers are being killed and maimed while Obama is dithering? EVEN ON AMERICAN SOIL."

huh? i'm certain that fewer soldiers were killed in afghanistan while he "dithered" (nice right-wing talking point, btw... straight from the mouth of dick cheney) than were killed in iraq after bush declared "mission accomplished." do you somehow think that a hasty decision by obama on afghanistan would have changed anything to do with the fort hood killings? you must have just rewound your cuckoo clock.
