Last night's opening skit on SNL pilloried President Obama's trip to China and his attempts to lecture its leaders. President Hu Jintao responded by coarsely reminding Obama which country owes the other $800 billion. Obama replied with a firm promise that the money is certain be repaid.INTERPRETER: Are we? Are we going to get our money? Because from what I read your country is in the middle of
By Willy Lam As the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leadership tries to convince United States President Barack Obama and other world leaders that China is eagerly integrating itself with the global marketplace, the ultra-conservative norms and worldview of Chairman Mao Zedong are making a big comeback in public life. In provinces and cities that foreign dignitaries are unlikely to visit, vintage Cultural...
November 22, 2009 Live from New York it’s…Nasim Pedrad, Will Forte and Fred Armisen in “Obama and Hu Jintao”. Press conference with barry and the Chinese president – with translator. China wants their money back and…a personal favor of sorts… saturdayepisode Selected quotes – hand transcribed. BO: Unfair valuation of Chinese currency, trade imbalance,...
[Trigger warning.] Above is the opening segment from this weekend's Saturday Night Live . 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...
Obama's foreign policy attitude may be change, but it's not the one America hoped for!Saturday Night Live's opening skit was a mock press conference between China's Hu Jintao and President Obama. It...
Via Hot Air , Saturday Night Live had a remarkable opening sketch this weekend that took aim at Obama's policies from the right and was actually funny. In a press conference between Obama and Hu Jintao, the Chinese leader inquires about whether the U.S. will pay back its debt and asks, "How exactly is extending health care coverage to 30 million people going to save you money?" "I ...
Der Spiegel: Obama's Nice Guy Act Gets Him Nowhere On The World Stage . Obama's currency isn't as strong as he had believed. Everyone wants respect, but hardly anyone is willing to pay for it. Interests, not emotions, dominate the world of realpolitik. The Asia trip revealed the limits of Washington's new foreign policy: Although Obama did not lose face in China and Japan, he did appear to have lost...
Saturday Night Live took a hard whack at Fearless Reader on November 21st spoofing a news conference between China’s Hu Jintao and “Superbower”. Jintao: “I am noticing that each of your plans to save money involves spending even more money.” Asking about the economic stimulus, "I'm curious. How many jobs has it created?" Fearless Reader: "None, but our health-care...
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...

MICKEY KAUS: Doomsday Orszagism. Sorry, but claims that Obamacare will save money are unlikely enough that they can be fairly characterized as “lies.” As SNL’s Hu Jintao said, all their schemes to save money somehow seem to involve spending enormous sums.
Spiegel , the decidedly Left-leaning German news magazine bashes President Obama. They chide him on the many failings of his recent trip to Asia, how he got suckered into a joint news conference with Chinese leader Hu Jintao, something Bush never did. The White House punted on human rights, climate change and nuclear disarmament. Also noted: Obama's failed Israeli policy of demanding the halt to settlement...
