SNL had a skit on Saturday that made fun of the blind Governor of New York Gov. David Paterson. It showed him disoriented at times and had him holding a chart upside down. Gov. Paterson and his supporters are being critical of the skit. Here is the link: http://tinyurl.com/5mfg5xI watched the video and I thought it was funny. It didn't appear to be as harsh as some of the other skits I have seen on SNL. Do you think it is inappropriate to make fun of Gov. Paterson being blind? The skit: |

Its too easy to go after someone's disabilities like that. Apparently they couldn't find anything else to make fun of him on. I think he is doing a fair job, at least he's honest that he's not perfect.

SNL makes fun of everyone - that's pretty much the entire basis of the show. I think Patterson is being a poor sport.

I think he should ignore it, because it`s true, they take shots at everybody.
Laugh with them or ignore them, that`s probably his best bet.

18 percent sales tax on soft drinks, called an “obesity tax,” eliminating the sales-tax exemption on clothing and footwear costing less than $110, imposing a sales tax on cable and satellite radio and on music, movie and game downloads through services like iTunes.
UMMM, I already pay tax on cable and satellite radio!!
