The Unedited “Forbidden” SNL Economic Bailout Skit

Apparently this skit was pulled from the web because of the potential problems it might have caused NBC.  SNL reposted an edited version, however, we have the unedited version here.  A tipster writes:

They have pulled the video and apparently gone after anyone who put the video out there, because the video has all but disappeared off the internet. It was up on multiple sites and virtually all the copies are gone now. There are a few new “edited” copies on the net.

Anyway, here it is for all you to enjoy!

It is quite brilliant, a shame we are so censored in this country now.

So DID it actually run on SNL? I’m down in farking Australia, so I don’t get to tune in. (Wife and I did a Soros and sold our house at the peak of the market, cashed in our retirement accounts and got outta U.S. dollars, heh-heh.) It showed surprising political/economic sophistication for SNL. Must be above the heads of the target audience. Too bad it’s impossible to make Nancy Pelosi funny — she’s such a mousey little woman. (And I say that as a flaming left-winger who used to live in San Francisco, just over Twin Peaks from her congressional district.)

Yes, apparently it DID actually run on SNL… and yes, it was above the heads of the target audience, but I loved it.

It is amazing that NBC had to edit it…. someone must have got really upset by it. Makes you wonder who… and why.

Perhaps the title of this poost was unclear and the word “unedited” was confusing. Unedited means that nothing was cut from the original.

The version, the unedited version, presented here is 7 mins 27 secs.The HULU version which was aired is 6 mins 24 secs. That is 1 min 3 secs shorter which means the HULU aired version is edited.

It was edited because there is truth to this skit which the public should not have heard. This is the fault of Barney Frank and the Dems. Soros holds power over them. The U.S. will be devalued and we
will become a 3rd world country.

It was probably taken off the web because of copyright issues, which is why so many unauthorized clips of tv shows are.
Just the same, pretty funny and right on!

George Sorrows owns the democratic party that is why they pulled the video from youtube.

Obama is owned by G. Sorrows. that is why they pulled the vid, from youtube.

But they didn’t cut Soros, they cut the Sandlers - the folks who profited and who thanked Frank AND THE REPUBLICANS for blocking legislation that would have stopped their corrupt activities.

Now, it’s back up on the web w/Soros and minus Sandlers - makes you go hmmm…

MOST of you are FOOLS- especially the scumbag who thinks the US is going to become third world! HA! MORON, YOU! It’s interesting- how- the USA- right now- at its lowest financial state in decades is STILL NUMBER ONE- AND ALWAYS WILL- bitch ;) HEEHEE!

Hilarious! First time I’ve seen this since they did everything to make sure we didn’t see it. Vote them all out, they have earned it. I will link this in my news blog, http://unitedstatesvicepresident.com on politics if that is ok with you. This is too funny.
