#1 Tina Fey, today's Chevy Chase of the President Ford era but without the klutziness. I only watch SNL when I can't go to sleep; it is sleep inducing--it tends to be sophomoronic and often not very funny.

#2 They are really pulling out all the stops to assassinate her character.

All of this is opposite the Gaffe-a-Minute, Joe Biden.

#4 Joe is too busy shopping for a swimsuit, to be interviewed. He knows he can't plagiarize his way out of this coming debate.

#5 Since SNL had skit that mentioned Todd Palin was having sex with his daughters, when are they having a skit about Michelle molesting her daughters?

#6 I happened to surf by ABC "News" tonight. The two anchors were laughing about the Tey SNL skit, and played a long clip. One said, when Palin gets on SNL it's going to be hard to tell her apart from Tey. The other said, yeah, it's really great that Tey's back on again. The first wrapped with, "Yeah, really cool." Media bias? Whatever are you talking about?

#7 I actually watched a goodly chunk of SNL last night before falling asleep. They had a skit on the Obama/McCain debate, and really did a good, balanced job. My notes from that moment:
Rezko, earmarks, McCain surprises, maverick, BEACH BOYS!!
(Bomb, bomb Iran = Ba ba Barbra Ann)

It was clear Al Franken was not involved in writing that skit. It's just that Tina Fey doesn't want to do political skits for the next four years... and that ABC News, etc won't play anything that brings up dear Tony Rezko, who is reportedly ready to confess all his sins at the top of his lungs.
