Get Whoopi - In Whiteface!
So, apparently there's a controversial SNL skit about Obama and IRONICALLY the controversy isn't about the fact that the skit isn't even remotely funny while it nevertheless manages to be both racist and sexist (depicting the black man as lecherous and the woman as unable to speak up for herself):
Say, you know what WOULD be funny, now? To have a black comedian do a Lorne Michaels sketch. You know, maybe Whoopi Goldberg or somebody like that - in whiteface - to inject a little humour into SNL and play off the WTF? controversy of a white comedian playing Obama in your usual run-of-the-mill not funny SNL skit.
