sad...
So sad I missed this!
In the very first sketch, before the opening credits, Jackson did a bull's-eye impression of national security adviser Condoleezza Rice testifying, as she did last week, before the commission investigating the 9/11 tragedy. Outfitted with prosthetic teeth that helped with the flashing of a coldly faked smile, Jackson as Rice rehearsed for her testimony with a sinister and snakelike Vice President Cheney, played by master impressionist Darrell Hammond.
God bless you, SNL... and Tom Shales at the Post, for giving a play by play on this weekend's episode.

That is a good article... not so much because of the SNL recap, me thinks, but because I'm always relieved to read someone else who thinks "the absurd furor that ensued -- a major assault by Congress and the FCC on the First Amendment and the levying of outlandish fines against radio stations that allow raunchy remarks on the air" is completely ridiculous. Hopefully this assault ends soon and we can return to the "filth" we all know and love.
