This will be a very short diary, but I just had to share this.
So the first skit on Saturday Night Live last night was -- of course -- a joke about Bachmann not looking into the camera. Nothing about what she had to say, just the obvious humor of the week
And the wingnuts went batshit!

...about the State of the Union address, did they?
I don't remember one member of the Democratic opposition who was lampooned by SNL in the 8 years while Bush was president. Not. One.
It's very obvious to me. Hollywood sees how effectively they marginalized Palin, so they are doing the same with Bachmann.
Did you know that SNL undermines America?

this "comedy" has a tangible and substantial misinforming impact on today's youth - who then make seriously erroneous voting choices - which undermines our republic - and we end up with an unmitigated disaster of a community organizer as president - but other than that hey no big deal

it goes on and on like this.
These people seem not to understand -- SNL isn't a news organization. IT'S A FRIGGIN COMEDY SHOW!! They're not TRYING to be unbiased or biased. They're working with what's funny; And Bachmann's "looking in the wrong camera" was funny.
