I see dead people!

Post by Midnyte_Ragebringer »

I am Barack Obama and I have approved this message. Afterall, I just said it yesterday.
On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes -- and I see many of them in the audience here today -- our sense of patriotism is particularly strong.

What a brilliant, intelligent man. He doesn't even know what Memorial Day means. Or, he just messed up. If SNL and the media were Republican biased and wanted to make this man look like a bumbling bafoon, they so easily could. It's all in which clips you show, when you cut them off, and how you comment on them afterwards. God bless the USA.

Funny one... It's fairly obvious that he meant many in the audience are honoring our fallen soldiers, but it's a pretty good slip-up.

I'm pretty sure he meant he sees "heroes" in the audience. You have to really go out of your way to believe he thinks he's seeing the dead.

Ummm, actually it's a joke. Read his words. He is saying he sees dead people, who have fallen. No one alive thinks he actually means he sees dead people.

Holy shit. You really can't be that dense.

Sounds like a stupid skit. I wouldn't consider switching jobs as a comedy writer if I were you.

I wasn't making a joke. If I was, you'd be right. It's not funny.

Here's another joke recognition for you.....Joe bought a rake for his yard.

Funny?
