1. Bush was feeding Blair lines about his domestic policy.

They are skewering the crap out of the "War Criminal in Thief"!!!

2. Heh, he got trashed
They made fun of the idiots who still believe the 9/11-Saddam connection and those who don't care about no WMDs in Iraq. They also joked about Bush's (lack of a) job creation policy.

8. Yeah, * blanked out on that one...
Not much better on an Iraq question. Totally lost his train of thought, then started babbling about how his own staff had warned him. Somehow, he ended up with the term "tyranizer." Then Blair, evidently in the poodle role, started repeating the term with clenched teeth.

3. Notice the audience cheering when "Blair" points out...
... no Saddam-9/11 connection.

Encouraging -- people in NY, at least, know the facts.

10. That particular skit was pretty good, but I thought they went
easy on Bush and kind of hammered Kerry in the beginning. Who's NBC whoring for anyway?

12. yeah; it was quite clear that theonly thing they can
make fun of kerry on are the hand gestures, then they went overboard on the mary cheney thing

the whole skit was centered around that
