Fake Republican John McCain Refuses To Be Transvestite On TeeVee
Friday, May 16th, 2008
To appeal to the 45-year-old bitter people who enjoy the 34-year-old Saturday Night Live teevee program because they are too old/poor to actually do anything on Saturday night, 71-year-old John McCain will make a very brief appearance on SNL at exactly 11:35 p.m. tomorrow. Apparently the show’s producers wanted to put McCain in a dress and beat the shit out of him for 15 minutes, which is the usual level of comedy on SNL, but the “maverick” said no. MORE »

SNL: Hillary Clinton Is Funny. Barack Obama? Not So Much
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007
SNL does not hate Hillary Clinton, really. It’s just that Amy Poehler gets camera time playing her, and writers can more easily gin up skits for laughs: “Over the past year, viewers tuning into Saturday Night Live have seen Hillary Clinton depicted as a ruthless, power-hungry, arrogant witch. On the rare occasions that Barack Obama’s name is so much as mentioned, he receives gentle, if not admiring, treatment.” MORE »

Now, he’s added “political comedian” Nicholas Fehn, a shaggy, stammering hipster and ADD victim: “I do the type of comedy…Basically what I do is I take headlines … I take newspapers. I read them. And I comment on them. It’s my own skewed view on things.” Imagine our massive meta moment. MORE »

All presidents — even temporary appointed presidents — leave a rich legacy to history or whatever. Ronald Reagan left that nice little airport he built, Bill Clinton somehow caused 9/11, and of course Thomas Jefferson fathered black children. MORE »
