Yet the SNL writers would be screaming about violations of the 1st Amendment and a 'chilling effect' on free speech if a Republican even suggested a sponsor boycott.

Could we just pull the entire SNL show?... Honestly, apart from the 1 sketch in 100 that garners a semi-chuckle, has SNL been funny in the past 10 or 15 years?
I never thought I'd find myself at a time when, in hindsight, even Joe Piscopo was more comical than the current crop of crap.

SNL began to tank as the original cast went in their own directions career-wise. The characters weren't really on the money, but the whole skit was priceless! "People who should be shot" LOL!

They yanked the video and did a re-write.
As per the LA Times:

Funny how it met their standards long enough to post it in the first place. Maybe they just wanted a chance to "say it like it is" before someone else dropped the hammer.

Drudge has a link that delves into the story. And from what I can see, NBC probably did fear a lawsuit. I am surprised that the skit made it past the legal department at NBC in its original form.

It wasn't funny so much as a little wry since it was actually too close to the truth.
