"Colin Powell Endorses Barack Obama"


Aaaaaaaaand scene. I think it's fitting that Mr. Powell put the final nail in the McCain/Palin Coffin of Suck, as he is really the only one tainted by the Bush administration's reign of terror that I actually felt bad for.


Also, "Saturday Night Live"? Awkward as all hell, no? Let's see why:

-Unlike other appearances of political figures (Janet Reno, Hillary Clinton, John McCain, etc.), the fine thespians of SNL have made it no secret, onscreen and off, that they HATE Palin. They hate her. Tina Fey said she would leave the planet if McCain/Palin won. So to have to share the stage with her and interact like the traditional format has always been for these kinds of cameos would have been impossible. So she wasn't let in on the joke. She just kind of sat around while she was the joke. And that was weird. It also shows me how out of touch she is with the average American. While "Joe Six-Pack" or whoever might hunt and enjoy it, I don't think he'd find the act of killing moose or other animals funny. The fact that she'd sit there bopping along (confirming EVERY SINGLE STEREOTYPE about white people and rhythm, or lack thereof) while Amy Poehler rapped and shot a fake moose was absurd to me. SHE DOES NOT GET IT.

-Also, she wore black, knee-high hooker boots. With bare legs. What the hell are you doing, Palin.

-ALSO, SNL: WHEN YOU ARE HAVING THE KINDS OF RATINGS THAT YOU HAVE NEVER HAD IN HISTORY AND YOU'RE GUARANTEED ANOTHER HUUUUUGE AUDIENCE THIS WEEK, WHY THE HELL WOULDN'T YOU TRY TO, I DON'T KNOW, BE FUNNY!?? TO GET THESE PEOPLE TO STICK AROUND?! WHY WOULD YOU INCLUDE A SKETCH WITH GROWN MEN CALLING EACH OTHER "MR. FARTFACE", OR THAT HORRIFIC ONE AT THE END WITH THE FALL FOLIAGE?! WHY?! DO YOU NOT LIKE TO BE FUNNY?! SERIOUSLY!?!? I WANT AN ANSWER!!!!!
