I never thought about this. I don't pay attention to politics (I'm 27 BTW), I just see no need because it's like an endless debate about religion that will go nowhere and that you can do nothing about. It's like talking about your dream car in great detail, when you can't get it. etc. Anyways ya I never thought that SNL would affect this stuff.
@vincevince801 YOU are a dumb ass, Iran, Somalia, and Afganistan are not conservative, do they have a constitution NO they don't, so , what do they conserve? say it with me, say it,, ready,,, SHARIAH LAW which is illegal in our kick ass country that doesn't let men cut the heads off of women with a machete legally as an honor killing. I could play semantics too, watch, Iran is the most liberal country because they take the liberty to do whatever the hell they want to their people. ha ha
Bingo. Unless you're a god-fearing, warmongering, corporate, nature destroying loonie EVERYTHING is "left-wing". Ridonkulous. This is silliness. Cable "news" is such a joke in the USA. :(
@acdblnd Does that work both ways? does that mean if your not a socialist/communist, gun hating, anti-constitution, vegan, Neo liberal ultra tolerant anti-Islamophobic, anti American (ouch), God hating(?), Jew hating, spend at will advocate, guppies before people, anti-prosperity then your a right wing extremist? cause I get that all the time lol.
@ astroturf, sure, that would be MSNBC's journalism or better yet NPR. Sorry if my 'chain' gets rattled when our country is going to shit. Didn't mean to inconvenience your ears and eyes.
The whole of American media is BS, foolio. Astroturfing is when corporations pay people to go online and post things all over the internet to make it look like there's more support for something than there actually is (ie nuclear power, as we're seeing right now). They do it because their livelihood is threatened and there's enough money in industry to pay people to do it.
@acdblnd Uh, yeah sure for the most part, your right, most of the media, except there is a small percentage that goes against the grain, the anti-media media, but they are mostly kinda like 'underground' and No I am not trolling for fish, I am not one of those internet 'trollers', only fishing I do is on a boat with a real fishing pole. I am not paid to make comments, I am really just worried and pissed off about the direction our country is going in. I make comments for free, for La Gente dig?
Where exactly did Chase 'admit SNL is left wing show' and even if you want to infer that he did by saying he hoped one candidate won over another, how does Chevy Chase get to speak for SNL (given he left 35 years ago as a cast member)? But don't let me interfere with your neocon anti-anything-we-deem-to-be-liberal conspiratorial nonsence that conveniently forgets SNL attacks on Obama, Pelosi, Hilary Clinton, Bill Clinton, Gore ...
god damn, chevy chase looks like shit! age sure is a son of a bitch, and he sure seemed to get old fast! seemed like only a little while ago vegas vacation came out, and he looked the same as ever, no bam, he looks fucked up!
yes they make fun of dems too, but since we already know and have established that snl is a liberal leaning show, theres a difference when they satirize dems and when they do it to reps. You cant help but feel, as a third party observer, that when they make fun of dems its almost like snl is laughing with them, when they make fun of republicans it feels they are laughing at them. It was funny when lorne said "we're not partisan", hahah yea right, and clouds are made of cotton Im sure./
lets be fair here. people that work on television inevitably let their own political views either taint, interfere, influence, or guide their professional work and openions. it is not only reserved for the "liberals". or do you think that it is a coincidence that Karl Rove gets a job at Fox News after getting the boot from the white house? Mike Huckabee(sorry if i spelled it wrong) gets late night type show on Fox News channel? i wonder just how "fair and balanced" that show is gonna be.
Well DUH. Could you imagine a conservative comedy sketch show? Of course not. That wouldn't be funny to anyone. SNL is liberal, but it doesn't usually follow an agenda. I mean they ripped on Clinton and Pelosi and Gore too!
SNL is liberal...and your point is...??? SNL is a sketch comedy show. It can be whatever it wants to be. If it's partisan for one party, it can be. It's not a news organization. It can be as op-ed as it wants. It's an entertainment show.
yeah? and? so? what?

honestly does everything in this country have to be either conservative or liberal...does everything have to have a political twist to it?
Its SNL, the joke on every politician, they got Rudy Guliani to put on a dress for god sakes...laugh and get over yourself already

It is liberal and I hope Chevy, Tina and all members of the liberal media get cancer, real soon.

Wishing ill toward others is why you Repubes got cleaned out. Besides, you have your comedy show: The O'Reilly Factor! LOL!
O'Reilly is like that Jon Lovitz character, The Liar, except O'Reilly is the bigger liar.
