SNL’s ‘TV Fun House’ Can’t Stomach Bush’s Lies

Posted on May 21, 2006

In this witty clip from “Saturday Night Live’s” animated “TV Fun House,” characters have a tough time with the president’s falsehoods over the years.

Crooks and Liars:

On Saturday Night Live, Fun with Real Audio “kicked out the jams” last night.

Every time Bush, Cheney or Rummy say something that has ultimately turned out wrong, someone, animal or thing spits water or soup on them. Karl Rove scurries into the frame each time and makes them do another take. All the audio is of course the real thing. Another excellent job by Robert Smigel and Matt O’Brien.
