1. Accurately reflects the thinking of many.

Stockholm Syndrome makes sense, especially after the "hostage" comment.

6. It was accurate in its assessment of the president's capitulation.
It is accurate as a measure of the way many of his former supporters feel about his caving to the GOP on so many issues.

9. Then I guess he's touring with Glen Beck and O'Reilly
starting next week and attacking ABC for not letting dumb ass Bristol win on Dancing with the stars.

7. Comedy is in the eye of the beholder.
I haven't laughed at SNL in decades, but I find the movie Gummo funny. Go figure.

22. As I say above, comedy is the eye of the beholder.
I didn't see the skit, it may have been hilarious, or (as I suspect of SNL) lamer than a two legged dog. Trying to spin comedy into your view of what's right or wrong is the true grasping here. :shrug:

29. Agreed
And, I take a different take on the skit...


Huge and sarcastic reaction to the extremes on both sides.


Birthers, Vampires as DLC, etc. Pretty good.

23. That was excellent
The truth is that Fred Armisen isn't even close to Obama - talk about marginalizing black people - he's Hispanic and Asian. He has never been funny doing Obama because he does a very bad Obama.
