I was shocked for the most part that left leaning SNL on NBC no less ran this skit.

get this

"Just as predicted, The Obama Attack Machine has now gone into Action.

The comedy skit by SNL is being “FACT CHECKED” By the Socialist Zombie Squad.

Think the Socialist Zombie Squad ever fact checked SNL Skits about Sarah Palin?

Don’t make me laugh!"

Conan O'Brien has been doing some good jokes about Obama. Here are 2 from within the past month. The comedians are getting more comfortable with poking fun at Obama, and I like that. :)

Here is my problem with the SNL skit

1) The person playing the Chinese President is not Chinese, and not even Asian.
2) I do not think the person SNL has portraying Obama does a very good Obama impersonation

This skit was funny, but could have been even funnier with different people in the roles of Jintao and Obama.

BHS

After watching the bit from Conan, President Obama might want to consider dying his hair. :)

I don't usually watch Conan. But, last Thursday I was at the laundromat, and Conan was on the TV. When I saw this bit with Obama and his hair, I thought it was hilarious. :)

It's actually not a bad look for him, and I could see Obama looking that way at some point if he begins to lose his hair.

I like Conan, but my favorite late night talk show host is Craig Ferguson.

Agreed. He was a very poor Obama impersonator. The "do sex to me" was funny the first go round....but not the second and third. Redundancy is a humor killer.

Again agree...I also think the material could have been broader...I

Yeah, he does good with mannerisms but needs to work on the voice.
