What makes it even funnier is that the substance of the real "debate" and the spoof are at about the same level.

Some comments are just way too serious. People need a little bit of humor to balance it all out or we will all go insane! I thought this was funny and I enjoyed being able to laugh ( if only for a few minutes ) at what we are up against. Tina is so good doing Palin that it's scary! Laugh and relax for a few minutes, then get back to work to really change things.
They've been hitting it on the head for a the past few episodes, more pointedly against Palin (my guess is cause Tina Fey is a big Obamaniac). It's so great we got the Jon Stewart Show, Colbert Report, South Park, the Simpsons and SNL to poke fun at what everybody knows.
I'm sure there's some spooks helping with scripts- but at least they got a sense of humor.
The skit portrays the reason politicians pander to Jewish interests as being the desire for votes from Florida, when the real reason is that the Israeli lobby is powerful and will destroy any politician they think will not continue to subsidize Israel directly (monetarily) and indirectly (by fighting their wars).
The attacks on Biden's congeniality toward McCain were just annoying. As anyone familiar with parliamentary procedure knows, the U.S. Senate has rules enforcing decorum on and off the Senate floor, and Biden could face reprimands or worse if he did not speak politely about McCain.
Of course, the general public is not educated about parliamentary procedures -- certainly not in public schools -- for that would risk ordinary citizens making it into legislative bodies.
I wish I could laugh at SNL skits like this -- but it just made me angry and sad instead.
The only part I could even think was funny was when she thought she was in a beauty contest and wanted to do the talent portion. Guess it's because I really do think of all these candidates as my enemy and even someone impersonating them just made it too real. Unless they were being totally skewered, I just can't find it funny.
I thought this was really too tame. Maybe I prefer Dave Chappelle's sense of humor.
Also, it kinda made me sick that in "real life" Queen Latifah is a head cheerleader for Obama, even making videos for him to "Vote For Change." Uggggg. Then of course, it's all politics. She wouldn't want to go against the grain & lose some paying gigs.
BUT I'm glad other people found it entertaining. We all need a laugh because there ain't nothing funny about this election.

They joked about Palin's "love" for Israel but omitted Biden's remark that "...no one in the United States Senate has been a better friend to Israel than Joe Biden. I would have never, ever joined this ticket were I not absolutely sure Barack Obama shared my passion."

I want to see Ron Paul on SNL!
I think Ron Paul should make a guest apperance on Saturday Night Live. Am I the only one who thinks that would be great and oh so funny?
~We are the Revolution~
Brilliant idea. This would be the best SNL cameo ever.

They been hitting it on the head because....
Palin is a dead ringer for Fey. And Tina Fey pulls off the impersonation perfectly

I felt the same way...

Palin: "Are we not doing the talent portion?" classic
I wonder if Palin watches her own snl spoofs on tv? That has to be embarrassing.
She does
At one of her rallys she said she is giving Tina Fey materail.
~We are the Revolution~
Thank you Michael.
Just the "snap" out seriousness I needed.......
I think I might watch again just to "curl another smile..."
Whoever played Palin was just fantastic!
And the host "eyballing" her was hilarious......
Question.
Was the vice presidential debate from last week a parody of this SNL episode? If not, it seems uncannily similar.......
Once again,
SNL just nails it. That was one of their best so far.
OMG, I'd heard about these SNL skits,
but I don't have TV so I've never seen one. This was too hilarious!! Hey, thank ya so much for postin' this! What are we all worried about with folks like this in charge? Everything's gonna be fine!
There is ALWAYS...
a lot of truth in jest. In this case the pathetic part is that the parody and the reality are one in the same!
Awesome!
The best one yet..
haha, no, this one is
haha, no, this one is waayyyy better:

Sometimes we all just need a moment of levity. That was funny! Thanks.
