So I was up late last night and decided to check out Saturday Night Live. I was at one time a huge fan of SNL during the era of Farley and Sandler. Last night I was surprised to see them lambaste Obama. I read a blogger from National Review Online (a conservative publication) allude to the possibility that this was the first time.
The likeness of Obama wasn't very good. It didn't seem he even tried to get the voice or facial expressions that the President is famous for. The overall premise of the skit was to make Obama seem like a total novice. It was funny on certain occasions.
What I would like to know is Jimmy Carter and certain members in the media going to say that SNL is racist? Was there some sort or racial component behind this absolutely terrible attack? Is SNL a voicebox for the vast right wing conspiracy?
