Media conspiracy in favor of Obama. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.
The one that actually poked some fun at Dems....
Is gone.
Pulled from NBC's website; yanked from YouTube.
Every Palin skit still readily available.
What a strange coincidence.

Good to se you agree with that!
I think the main question would be if it was funny. Was it?
Funny as , actually.
Why would it not be funny? Just not funny to Democrats because it's only funny if Republicans are being made fun of.
SNL is just satire and they have no political motivation.
Have you watched SNL for the past 10 years? It hasn't been funny since Chris Farley died.
Yes, I have watched but Democrats think the Sarah Palin skit is FUNNY.
It was ing great; especially when Tina Fey gave the exact same answer as Palin did on the interview.
classic
Similar; not the same. Funny nonetheless.It was ing great; especially when Tina Fey gave the exact same answer as Palin did on the interview.

it hasn't been funny since belushi left. farley only wished he was good as him.
the video may not be available, but Rush played the audio on his show today and it was VERY funny! He will have a link to it on his website.
When those two guys were talking about how they met the "criteria" for sub-prime loans, I was laughing out loud!
I saw it and it was hilarious. I have complete bi-partisan humor.
It's available here: http://www.mininova.org/tor/1885620
I loved it.
I thought Mark Wahlberg talking to animals was funnier.
Just a warning...
I clicked this link at work, and it was blocked by the company.
The reason was "hacking."
I didn't know they did a skit on that.
I wish I could find the link somewhere.
I've never really been a fan of SNL, but of the bits I've seen, I can tell that show has lost its luster over the years.
The Palin skits are HILARIOUS though...I could watch those over and over.
Tina Fey really nails that role!
it was funny as ......they needed to do it.

NBC Edits ‘Saturday Night Live’ Sketch
By BRIAN STELTER
NBC has taken the unusual step of editing the online video version of a “Saturday Night Live” skit.
Two characters in a sketch about the Congressional bailout are no longer labeled “people who should be shot” in the revised version of the video, which was posted online Tuesday evening. Those two characters represented actual people, Herb and Marion Sandler, who sold subprime loans to Wachovia.
NBC abruptly removed the skit from its Web site on Tuesday, prompting some bloggers to surmise that the network had come under pressure to make it disappear. The sketch, which portended to be a C-SPAN press conference with “victims” of the financial crisis, assigned some of the blame to Democrats.
Explaining the move, NBC said in a statement: “Upon review, we caught certain elements in the sketch that didn’t meet our standards.”
The couple had expressed their anger to Lorne Michaels, the executive producer of “SNL,” who told the Los Angeles Times that he did not realize the characters were real people until Monday. “When I spoke to them, I can assure you this: They are very, very real,” he said. “I think they were angry, I think distraught, I think they were not expecting to turn on the television and see that.”
He said the couple did not specifically request that changes be made to the video. Nonetheless, the graphic and a reference to “corrupt activities” were removed from the Internet video.
In the sketch, the character playing Mr. Sandler says: “My wife and I had a company which aggressively marketed sub-prime mortgages and then bundled them as securities to sell to banks such as Wachovia. Today our portfolio is worth almost nothing, though at one point it was worth close to $19 billion.”
The host of the press conference asks: “Were you able to sell it for anything?”
“Yes, for $24 billion,” the character responds.
The case demonstrates that “SNL” sketches on television may be fleeting, but once they are uploaded to the Internet, the scenes have a long shelf life.
Saying someone should be shot is a nono in this day and age. Not surprising they'd have to change it so much as it's surprising that it was used in the first place.
Saying Mr Palin is ing his daughters hahahahahaha
Joking about someone getting shot nonononononono
Wow, they said that?
it hasn't been funny since belushi left. farley only wished he was good as him.
Ok
Kevin Nealon did the best Weekend Update IMO
