More good news, this time from Slate : About one thing, left and right seem to agree these days: [President Barack] Obama hasn’t done anything yet.

I missed the latest Saturday Night Live , but by the next morning I had received an email from a concerned citizen about the content of its "cold open", in which Fred Armisen, as President Barack Obama, is assailed by Will Forte's Hu Jintao over America owing China money. The emailer was angry at Saturday Night Live for enforcing flawed media narratives to the effect that the stimulus package...

I'm not going to do a transcript, because the content can be easily summarized as: A sketch set at a joint press conference with the not-black Fred Armisen ( still ) playing President Barack Obama in blackface, and the not-Asian Will Forte playing Chinese President Hu Jintao not in yellowface but speaking ching-chong...
