If Obama’s Lost Saturday Night Live, He’s Lost…

…I dunno, maybe Jon Stewart comes next. I don’t accept the proposition that liberal comedians who aren’t funny are somehow arbiters of popular culture, let alone public policy. Still, the fact that Obama’s actual policies (not his failure to be a liberal messiah) were lampooned in this vulgar, sometimes-funny skit on SNL last night does seem significant:

“I am noticing that each of your plans to save money involves spending even more money.” That’s not exactly a revelation to those who have been paying attention, but it’s legitimate political commentary that may be news to some in the SNL audience.
