Hillary Clinton's Friday afternoon tax return disclosure about her and Bill's $109 million in income between 2000 and 2007 became fodder for last night's Saturday Night Live opening. While it's awesome to see Darrell Hammond play Bill Clinton, the Laser Cats 3 Digital Short was a little more fun.

don't get it
Darrel plays the best clinton. Makes him look like such a sleazeball. Laser cats was too ironic for me.
And finally SNL didn't pander to Hillary being crucified for being a woman or make her the victim once again.
Considering the Democrats typical railing against CEO pay and the "two Americas" I still can't believe there is almost zero commentary on this. Bush 41 got crucified for his ties to Carlyle and W got crucified by association but nobody seems to care where Bill gets his money.
And the Clinton's holding off on this information for months and then trying to bury it at 4 PM Friday should serve as a warning that a Hillary Clinton administration is going to be as combative as her husbands or as Bush/Cheney's when it comes to disclosure. Chelsea won't even release her senior thesis from Stanford on the Northern Ireland peace process.
Matty:
Wait, this didn't make her out to be a victim? I mean, okay, maybe once you get past the whole "the media is dumb and mean for wanting Hillary to disclose her finances" thing...
Yeah but she talked about conceding defeat in character.
Yeah maybe a victim...not quite as bad.
SNL is painfully unfunny. Even with Christopher Walken was dragged down by this. No question the Clinton opening sequence remained pro-Hillary, chiding the media for not recognizing they were rich, and insulting voters by saying "I know how to make money so that apparently makes me a bad candidate for millions of Americans who don't." I don't even care if they have a political favorite in the campaign-- the Clintons will certainly provide more fodder for the show than Obama will, and Fred Armisen does a lousy Obama impression. I just wish they'd get their act together.
