Re: SNL Will Be Criminalized!
This bill was a gimmick forwarded by Senate Democrats to placate their base (like Klam) over Citizens United and it was never intended to pass.
But the GOP threw dirty Harry for a loop and passed it forward and now all they have is Ted Cruz to rail about.
And of course that's just alright with klam

Please kalm, I refuse to believe you and gawker.com are actually that dense.
Congressional satire...showing how ridiculous a certain piece of legislation is by actually showing just how ridiculous it is.
I would expect better from you, but then I remembered that you accused Fauxcahontas Warren of being intelligent once.

What klam is saying is that he thinks that corporations are entitled to free speech rights, because it would be ridiculous to think that a corporation like NBC cannot parody presidents.Ibanez wrote:What?

CNN's Chuck Todd or whatever his name is had a pol analyst on this afternoon who agreed that Cruz's tack on this was not material (because this bill is just a Dem ploy and can never pass) and he was basically trolling liberals.
Congrats- you and the other section 8 liberals who make up 70% of the Democratic base

“
You didn't watch the clip either...did you?I grew up watching ‘Saturday Night Live’; I love ‘Saturday Night Live.’ ‘Saturday Night Live,’ over the years, has had some of the most tremendous political satire,” the senator said. “Who can forget, in 2008, ‘Saturday Night Live’s’ wickedly funny characterization of the Republican vice presidential nominee, Sarah Palin?”
“It was wickedly funny and also [had] a profoundly powerful effect on people’s assessment of Gov. Palin, who’s a friend of mine, ” he added.
Cruz said he asked Minnesota Sen. Al Franken, a former “SNL” actor and writer, whether he believed Congress should prohibit the show from making fun of politicians.

Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?

Re: SNL Will Be Criminalized!
You DO know this is a constitutional amendment the Dems are proposing, right? One that not only will require 2/3 of the senate but also ratification by the states?
You're blowing wind over something that the Dems never intended to pass, which is exactly what they want you to do- complain about the bad ol Republicans for being against it
OOPS wait a second
The GOP senators sent it through! Now what do we have to hang our hats on?
