The Rock Obama: SNL was hilarious this weekend
Did anybody see Saturday Night Live this weekend? I swear it gets funnier each week. The cast gets more solid.
Especially hilarious was the skit starring host Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock, as President Barack Obama.
Well, in Rahm Emanuel’s dream anyway. Andy Samberg—who recently potrayed Culpeper’s own Congressman Eric Cantor—played the prez’s chief of staff this week in a meeting with Republican leaders.
Emanuel so wanted Barack to get angry at the consisent GOP dissent—true story—that he had a vision of Obama as the Incredible Hulk, or, The Rock Obama. “I was just saying you’re not going to have any more problems from me,“ said Darrell Hammond playing John McCain, watching as The Rock Obama tosses his counterparts out the window at the White House. HA!
Other things from SNL that made me laugh:
MacGruber is MacGyver’s son. True story.
Dwayne Johnson doing the hula.
MacGruber’s naked butt.
Andy Samberg as Cathy the comic strip character and Justin Timberlake (he’s becoming quite the SNL regular) as her husband Irving, who presently leaves Cathy to pursue Jessica Biehl as Jessica Rabbit, recently named the sexiest cartoon character ever. Cathy, alas, came in at the bottom of that list, even behind Maraduke.
