I found this skit pretty funny, nice too see them poking some fun at the Pres.
Enjoy!
Lol, funny. He could have done a better Obama voice.
This is great.

Yea he could have but the part when he says “you can not pay us back in clunkers”.
Lotsa truth in there

More truth than the White House is willing to admit to. This video is hilarious.
You know you’re losing ground fast when even SNL is stabbing you right in your political heart. It’s one thing to joke about mannerisms, personality and so forth. It’s quite another when they’re blasting all your signature marquee policy positions along with your presentation of the nation to the world.
SNL did a great job with the dismantling of Sarah Palin.

Yeah, but you’d expect that from them with a conservative. They have always made fun of everybody, but I don’t recall them blasting Bill Clinton on substantive policy like this. Of course I never watch SNL, but I was paying close attention to the news then. Maybe they did.

How come everything on YouTube that talks shit about Obama ends up getting pulled?

It didn’t get pulled because it’s about Obama you moron, it got pulled because of a copyright claim by NBC. If you had simply clicked on the original embedded video you could have read that yourself, instead of making up your very own conspiracy.
Oh wait, NBC is part of the evil left-wing liberal main stream media, so they pulled it to protect Obama. But then they posted it on their own site? Now I’m all confused n shit.

They ridiculed Carter back in the day.
The skit with him on the phone with the Treasury Department, grinning like a fool and drawling how he needed the presses to keep turning out more “century notes” surely helped sink his public image, though he was doing a fine enough job of that himself.
With Carter, despite his being a liberal SNL showed no desire to protect him. It’s not the best thing for Obama that he’s beginning to reach that point already.
Prior to this, comedians had been very self-censoring with regard to Obama, it seemed to me. What, no or almost no ridicule – after Cash for Clunkers – for the immediately-following Cash for Refrigerators?
And can you imagine the savaging a Republican president would get if he were so Teleprompter-dependent, even to the point of in many speeches or statements always staring 45 degrees to one side or the other but not straight ahead? Comedians would have made anyone but a liberal appear a complete fool for that.
And what about other fodder for comedy? Think of the cast of characters: his terrorist friend Bill Ayres, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, his tax-cheat Treasury Secretary, and what with his touting his “Community Organizer” past we could have some ACORN doofuses and pimp-advisors in the skits as well.
If he weren’t a liberal.
Comedians have really been holding back on him.

Not exactly what I was talking about, I clicked on it and saw why it was pulled. I was talking about other clips that I had saved the link for and it just says pulled by YouTube with no real explanation.
I was not politically aware during the Carter years, but I did campaign for him in 1980. Not because I had the slightest idea what that meant exactly, I was 16, but because a guy named Miles from Bahstin was handing out these leaflets at my school promising a partyin good time and $2:75 an hour if you showed up at this office building and we’re selected to make polling calls for the Democrat party.
There was a huge conference room full of kids when I got there. They selected me and every day after school for several weeks I went to an office in that same building and did their polling calls for them. That was my very first job. You may think that would keep a kid outta trouble. Think again. All manner of behavior was tolerated as long as you made their quotas.
They took us down to the Book Cadillac Hotel in downtown Detroit on a bus on election night to follow the returns. Carter lost, but myself and a few of the other lads and lasses who had become acquainted couldn’t have cared less. There were no age requirements on anything at that ball and we took full advantage.
If you’ve lost the cool-aid drinkers at SNL you’ve pretty much lost it all.
