I pray Saturday Night Live writers are paying attention this week

My God this stuff writes itself as comedy gold. I am so hoping that the writers there will not miss a chance between all the General affairs, Press with Obama today, The Senators, and everything happening. This Saturday Night Live will be good if they use it. This could be the best one they have ever done.

It's like I'm watching Nickelodeon again or something with some of the lame skits they do.

I always tune in for skits about current events and get dull, random humor about McDonald's employees.

I'm looking forward to more of his take on it all. I haven't watched SNL in a long time.

They don't really have to work at creating their work. Sort of like the Onion, things got so bad they started resorting to reporting the news straight.
