SNL & The Donkey in the room

my dark side

SNL waited 3  years to start really going after political figures with last nights entree being that first punches but unfortunately the comedy as “per requirement” only went one way.  It was if a dark censor was in the room and any joke containing a Democratic Donkey or Liberal was not to be seen or heard. Just in the first 3 sketches Donald Trump, Kim Davis, Rick Santorium, Michael Huckabee and Jim Gilmore were mocked.  The sketches were funny but the last sketch definetly could have included Martin O’ Malley and Lincoln Chafee (who… exactly the point). It’s not that Republican’s shouldn’t get punched and kicked with humor but an occasional real swipe out a Democrat and/or liberal would allow the humor to be more balanced and honestly more funny.  It also would boost ratings by opening up this show’s comedy to everyone. Yet I fear the dark censor of liberal protectionism will continue to eliminate any humor at Democrats expense even if it would be hysterical.
