  1. Did Hulu clear this with SNL? They’ll slap you with a copyright violation cause their profits are getting “pirated”, you know.

  2. To be held up by one’s supporters as an object of ridicule; “the most unkindest cut of all”.

    Surely the IRS will shortly be sending the SNL producers, directors and actor/comedians notices that they are being audited. No doubt a visit from OSHA will be forthcoming as well.

    On second thought, perhaps not. What a wonderful skit could be done with IRS agents in brownshirts beating the performers with nightsticks as they reprimand the performers for “unpardonable, hideous provocation hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership“.

  3. G Joubert, 7:40 pm — “This is mild. But the fact that they’re doing it at all is new, and maybe significant.”

    It was more about the faux-interpeter, seems to me, than about the disaster-in-chief.

    Okay, the selfie portion of the skit is about the disaster-in-chief. Credit where due. It’s good-natured ribbing as contrasted with ill-natured snickering/sneering (as it would be were the object anyone from the dark side), but okay, G Joubert, it’s new and a baby step in a non-bad direction.

    With ya.

  4. Ymarsakar, 11:00 pm — “I thought the selfie was about Merkel loving Obama…”

    Yes, but to me, the mere fact that He did such a classless thing at a solemn occasion memorializing one of His heroes, suggests to me that the skit was at least indirectly a criticism of Him.

  5. M J R …

    In Black culture (New Orleans, the Sahel and South Africa) funerals are happy celebrations. Somberness is strictly a European schtick.

    If one pointed the cameras onto the public… all that you’d see would be one big party.

    So you’ll notice that Barry was hardly alone in his light spirits.

    Further, by African custom, anyone that leaves their mortal coil at the ripe old age of 95 is a very lucky guy — and favored by the Almighty.

    Lastly, it was the DANE that took the selfie… meaning that it wasn’t really a selfie for Barry.

    In fact, it’s such a light-weigh affair that SNL felt free to harpoon it. They have yet to touch meatier matters.

    Gun Walker, IRS, EPA… just too many to list.

  6. Ah, do any of you know gangsta hand signs?

    Thought so.

    Check out the motions of the Interpreter when BO claims that Obamacare is getting better.

    That had to sting.

  7. Blert: “In Black culture (New Orleans, the Sahel and South Africa) funerals are happy celebrations.”

    Okay, so in which of those cultures was Obama raised? I never consider Indonesia nor preppy school in Hawaii “black.” But, I might be wrong.

    Further, Obama represents America – not himself. Interestingly, I didn’t see Bush nor Carter partaking of taking selfies? I didn’t see the current President of South Africa doing so.

    And, taking a selfie is hardly celebrating the life of the deceased. It is more of a narcisistic nature than it is of honoring the deceased.

    As for your comment that “Somberness is strictly a European schtick.” Wow, that is just so wrong. While there are cultures that celebrate at a funeral, somberness at a funeral is not limited to Europeans.

    Lastly, I guess with the joker flapping his arms about we can be grateful that at least they didn’t hire Chevy Chase and Garrett Morris to do the “help for the hard of hearing.”

  8. MJR, a lot of this reminds me of the cult of personality concerning crims and Putin. They are considered sex magnets.

    All these white women falling for Obama is a kind of hint to me of what they are really thinking.

  9. Charles…

    Then you’d be surprised at how many cultures treat funerals as a time of celebration.

    They’re coming from a totally different perspective.

    I strongly suspect that all three of them were taking in the vibe of the entire crowd — especially the locals.

    In any event, it was the Dane that started the selfie.

    Neither Cameron nor Barry held out their smart phones.

    My guess is that she’s deleted it already. Too touchy.

  10. No Blert; I would not be surprised – you do NOT know me nor my background – don’t make assumptions about ME!

    As for taking a selfie – what part of this is narcisistic behaviour do you not understand. Taking a selfie is NOT celebrating the deceased.

    Obama and the other two clowns were caught up in the local “vive” – ha! Just another good reason why none of those three should be trusted to run countries.

    Obama didn’t start the selfie; but, by golly, he sure had no problem with grinning like the Cheshire Cat for it now did he?

  11. Lastly, it was the DANE that took the selfie… meaning that it wasn’t really a selfie for Barry.

    Every moment in Hussein’s life is about him.

    Doesn’t matter what reality is.
