Dueling SNL Endorsements: Tina Fey vs. Tracy Morgan

You probably saw Tina Fey endorse Hillary Clinton on SNL's Weekend Update a few weeks back. It was good stuff:

But you may have not have seen Tracy Morgan's rebuttal/endorsement of Barack Obama. Honest to God, I'd pay good money to see Tracy Morgan talk about politics for an hour.

Tracy rocks!

Thanks

Thanks for posting this. The Tina Fey bit has been all over the place, but this is the first I've heard or seen about Tracy's rebuttal.

Following her comments of the last two weeks, Senator Hillary Clinton should abandon her Presidential Campaign. In fact she should probably resign her Senate seat. Endorsing the Republican candidate over Senator Obama and casting aspersions on Senator Obama's patriotism and religion are tactics we expect from certain Republican political advisers. We do not expect them someone who would ask us to vote for her for President.

A petition made by Obama supporters to be sent to the DNC
stating that if Senator Clinton becomes the Democratic Nominee for
the presidential election, you will either:
a) abstain from voting in the general election
or
b) a third-party-candidate during the general election.
Here's the link: http://www.petitiononline.com/obama725/petition.html

Memo to my fellow Democrats:

Dump the Clinton’s-- NOW!

Every Democratic Party platform embraces tolerance and diversity and eschews racism and bigotry. Senator Barack Obama has been the victim of vicious, hateful, racist, religiously bigoted email and whisper campaigns. Senator Clinton’s campaign has on multiple occasions aided and abetted this attack. Several Clinton campaign officials, including Bill Clinton, have attempted to malign Obama’s reputation. When given a chance to ‘denounce and reject’ the hateful email campaign, Senator Clinton qualified her response (“not that I know of”) just enough to stoke the suspicions of those who stand gullibly ready to believe the email slander.
Senator Clinton compounded the insult and injury by effectively endorsing John McCain over Barack Obama. Beyond making a great attack ad for the GOP, she has eliminated her own ability to campaign for Senator Obama when he becomes the Democratic nominee.
So, is there any principle the Democratic Party loves more than it loves the Clintons? What does the Democratic Party stand for?

Decision time Democrats: Hope for Change with Obama or keep rolling in the mud with the Clintons.

The last inspirational, inexperienced leader we had was JFK. Everyone loved him, right? Remember the bay of pigs? The world is a much more dangerous place right now. Lets elect Obama when our struggles are more internal than external. Unfortunately now we have enough of the external to warrant the need for someone with more capacity.

Heed - That's got to be on the top 5 dumbest comments I have read on this board.
Remember the Cuban missile crisis? Remember the commitment to go to the moon? Remember the integration of the Univ of Alabama? I can go on, but I am not a history teacher. Seems like you need one.

I vote with Heed on that one. JFK was not very functional, and got by only because of Johnson, his wife and Rusk, all of whom picked up the pieces from the various crises. It was a mixed presidency, with a president who had some good intentions, quite a bit of hypocrisy and was often too ill to govern.

Count me as the 6th dumbest commenter.
