SNL Punks Obama

Emperor Obama’ has so thoroughly trashed the Constitution, that even liberal shows like Saturday Night Live are ridiculing him for it. SNL started their show last night with a sendup of the classic ‘Schoolhouse House’ TV series from the 1970s which lives on forever [URL='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyeJ55o3El0']on YouTube.[/URL]

Everyone except the Leftists here on PJ are getting it.
Now, everyone can understand.

SNL isn't a liberal show. They have no real political view at all. In fact, they studiously avoid having a political view, by trying to balance things that come across as critiques of the Republicans with things that come across as critiques of the Democrats. That's why they're usually so toothless, relative to shows that are willing to commit to a political agenda.

Lorne Michaels, who has run SNL for most of its history, is an old, rich, white male, putting him in the prime Republican demographic. That doesn't mean he leans Republican, of course. As far as I can tell, he's apolitical. He's a registered independent and has claimed "whoever it is in power, we're against them". And he donated thousands of dollars to both Obama and McCain. SNL has had a number of prominent liberals in the cast (Tina Fey and Al Franken, for example), but also a lot of conservatives (Victoria Jackson, Jon Lovitz, Robert Downey Jr., Dennis Miller, Norm MacDonald, Colin Quinn, Jim Downey, and Adam Sandler.)

Oh they are trying to show that "even the Left Wing media" have turned against Obama.
But, but, but how can this bastion-of-left-wing-network get away with turning against Obama? Aren't they fearful Emperor Obama The Messiah will strip away their broadcasting powers to make an example of them for having the temerity to stray from the leftist agenda? Something's not adding up.......... ;-)
 

FYI, SNL has a long history of bashing all politicians, regardless of party.

I know that Pugs have been brainwashed into thinking "everyone in the media is liberal," but there's just no basis to that.

SNL's angle is obviously unfair to Obama, since he has used executive orders very sparingly, especially when compared to GOP presidents, like Ronald Reagan, but the GOP meme about Obama has taken hold.

Carry on.
