Guess who is hosting SNL this weekend? No wonder the pundits are afraid

[GingerSnaps]

I heard Tweety make the comment "If SNL makes fun of Bush he will be finished". I didn't know who was hosting when I heard him earlier today. Is he warning SNL?

[AgadorSparticus]

1. ooooh yeaa, baby!!! C'mon Ben, you know you want to!

:evilgrin:

[speedoo]

3. Please, please bring Will Farrell back.

His shrub imitation is incredible. And there's the other guy that does Cheney so well.

[gauguin57]

12. Darrell Hammond does Cheney.

And Seth Meyers does a fabulous Kerry!

[spooky3]

27. Frank Caliendo on Mad TV does an incredible Shrub too.

[CrowNotAngelGRL]

18. I love Ferrell

and his Bush impression's! I saw the thing he did with ACT and it's great! LOL. I cracked up so much with Ferrell. I love his comedic acts.

[TrustingDog]

2. jeeeeeze but that's one handsome dude.

I don't care for some of the movie roles he picks, but Dogma absolves him of everything forever after. And the fact that he's a great democratic voice.

and freaking handsome, did I mention that?

[SammyWinstonJack]

7. He is handsome!

And a Dem! Double good.

[tomfodw]

16. That almost makes up for him being...

A) an asshole

B) a bad actor

and (worst of all) C) a Red Sox fan

[TrustingDog]

23. an asshole bad actor?...

you're talking about Bush here, not Benny. :)

[Rose Siding]

17. Why, he's handsome enough to be a liberal!

It starts inside! :)

[TrustingDog]

24. true, hmm, can't think of anything dropDead handsome repugish....

U?

[spooky3]

30. There's John Ashcroft, and Tom DeLay, and so, so many more.

[GingerSnaps]

31. Do you mean that you don't find Drew Carey attractive?

:puke:

[TrustingDog]

34. as road kill, sure!

[politicat]

4. Dogma even absolves him of J-Lo.... come on, Ben... you know you wanna.

EOM

[GingerSnaps]

5. Ben was out on the road with Kerry for the first few weeks

Hopefully he will tear Bush apart.

[Doosh]

6. ugh, nelly

he sucks

please get rap off snl

[GingerSnaps]

11. You forgot the

C :evilgrin:

[Blaze Diem]

8. Ben!!!! HAAAAAAA..What are the odds of SNL Not spoofing Bush???

Actually, odd as it may seem, one doesn't have to TRY to ridicule the Chimp.
Chimp ridicules himself just by opening his mouth. He is a stupid
looking dufus!
I'll be sure to watch SNL for all the laughs.

Can't wait!!

Al Franken on Leno last night was great..said "Bush peed himself"..haaa

[geek tragedy]

9. Bush will be less popular than Bennifer

by the time they're done with him.

[wishlist]

10. RW is shaking in their booties over SNL season premiere-woo hoo!!

Talking heads have been mentioning how much comic material poor little Georgie gave them to work with. I love it!

[GingerSnaps]

13. The props alone would do Bush in

They should come on with the podiums being different sizes and hire a midget to play Bush. Then they should have the cameras go around the back of the podium and show Bush on boxes with Rove inside the box.

[Nimble_Idea]

29. lol

good one.

[GingerSnaps]

33. How about a lopsided stage in the skit?

Bush's side higher then Kerry's side of the stage might get a laugh.

They need to put emphasis on the water drinking and Bush drinking out of an empty glass.

[wishlist]

32. I got a kick out of just the podiums before the debate started

The way the podiums were angled made it so obvious that Bush's handlers were trying to make him appear more imposing, important and Presidential and give Kerry a disadvantage since they knew Georgie couldn't look better than Kerry without some deceptive advantages. Little did they know Georgie needed lots more help than that to appear Presidential!

[girl gone mad]

14. I hope Will Ferrell will make a guest appearance..

as shrub.

I just can't imagine anyone else capturing his debate performance.

[BleedingHeartPatriot]

22. FERR...ELL! FERR...ELL! FERR...ELL!!!

The best BOOSH ever! MKJ

[life_long_dem]

15. if they do debate a skit

Who will portray Kerry? Also,they might tear him up. Hope not. I hope they focus on ripping *.

[GingerSnaps]

19. Ben will probably play Kerry

I can't see him doing Bush.

[gauguin57]

25. Seth Myers will play Kerry.

He played him throughout the primary season. And he does a really good Kerry impression! I've supported Kerry from nearly the beginning, and I laughed my butt off the first time I heard Seth impersonate him!

[NoPasaran]

20. SNL lampoon a president?

Have they ever done that before?

[GingerSnaps]

21. Every election

I don't think that they have ever missed one but who knows this one they might skip.

[Awsi Dooger]

26. Thursday debate may work against an SNL skit

Remember, the 2000 debates were on Tuesday, with one on Wednesday. This year's schedule -- Thursday, next Friday, then Wednesday -- definitely limits the time to work on a skit. The segments are normally chosen much earlier in the week. It's not automatic SNL left a segment open for a debate spoof.

[tomfodw]

28. It's okay to make fun of Kerry as long as they're fair & funny

And as long as they tear Bush to shreds while doing so.

I get the feeling Kerry has a genuine sense of humor about himself.

Unlike Bush, who only pretends to (but you can tell he's really extremely thin-skinned, since he's the King and all and no one should make fun of the king since it hurts his feelings, poor little one.)
