Herbert Sandler and George Soros Silence SNL


Remember the Bailout Skit that appeared during the same telecast as the hilarious Palin-Biden Opening Skit on Saturday Night Live (SNL)? The skit called out Fannie/Freddie and featured Nancy Pelosi dragging out various sob-story “victims” — who turned out to be a parade of deadbeats and schemers - including "people who ought to be shot" Herbert and Marion Sandler and Left-Wing Billionaire George Soros.

Sandler, 77, spoke to The Associated Press in the San Francisco office of his family’s charitable foundation the morning after NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” broadcast a skit deriding the Sandlers as predatory lenders who had duped unsophisticated borrowers and Wachovia, too. A caption shown on during the sketch skewered the Sandlers as “people who should be shot.”
Although the timing of the interview was coincidental, Sandler was seething after watching a replay of the skit on the Internet.

“I have been listening to this crap for two years,” Sandler said. “We are being unfairly tarred. People have been telling us to speak out for some time, but we didn’t think it was appropriate. That was clearly a mistake.”

The other videos on the SNL clip page are working fine but as of 9:25 Oct 6 this one’s suddenly unavailable. No dice at Hulu either.

So the funny video that lampoons other deadbeats and George W. Bush as well must go, because apparently, Sandler got butthurt.

"
Years and years of comedy jokes about hearing how Bush is an idiot, every night,
and NBC pulls ONE skit that shows that both Republicans and Democrats were
responsible for the credit crisis mess from their Web site. It was quite bi-partisan.
Oh and Bush was stilled portrayed as an idiot, anyway. So what are they so afraid
of?

Also, a reminder that since they've been having Palin skits their ratings have gone up
49 percent, so people are paying attention to what they have to say about politics.

P.S. to people are thinking of having a career in comedy writing and performance:
Don't even think of making fun of a Democrat! You've been warned!

A prime example of censorship right out of 1984.
