The missing SNL bailout skit

cwo_ghwebb · 10-07-2008, 05:58 AM

Over the weekend, I watched a hilarious, dead-on, and surprisingly honest skit on Saturday Night Live about the craptastic bailout and its Democrat roots.

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. I was going to post the video for you tonight, but I can’t.

The video has been pulled. Vanished into thin air. (Go here for full transcript and screenshots.)

Where did it go and why?

If you suspect a few high-placed phone calls to NBC led to the bailout skit slipping down the memory hole, you’re not alone.

Terry Ann at The Unfocused reports that NBC.com is deleting questions about the skit from message boards.

Go here for links to the vid (which will probably be yanked) on YouTube, plus full transcript and screenshots.

The missing SNL bailout skit — and the Soros connection

NBC's attitude is 'Just move along, folks! Nothing to see here.'

Michelle also has the transcript posted with screenshots, incase this link "mysteriously" stops working again.

...video hits the mark(s).

Tragic-comedy.

I saw this one when I posted the other SNL skit (that disappeared) but I couldn't remember where. Glad you found it.

It was funny to say the least, but why is NBC trying to limit its distribution?

The skit IS funny! But you clowns really should stop relying on Malkin for anything substantive.
