Last night's SNL's opening
skit was a tortured reprise of last week's spoof of media devotion to
Obama-Rama. Part I was funny because it smacked of the truth.
Obama Part II wasn't funny at all. The Rama-Lama was portrayed as
a stumbling speaker, a bumbling clown, which portrayal lacked any
semblance of truth that good parody lives on. I was actually
waiting for a Stephin Fetchit routine to break out, doo-dah. Why
did they run it? Obviously to accommodate "surprise" guest
Clinton herself, who delivered a fawning, transparent
campaign speech. Pitiful. I turned it off because I was feeling embarrassed by it
all. Next week, SNL can open with a parody of themselves going into the
tank for that wrinkled socialist bat. Or maybe a skit where the
two shoot each other dead; that would have a certain
cathartic value, at least.
