In our last class, Prof. Klein had us watch an opening video for Saturday Night Live, in which an Obama impersonator poked fun at the President.
The link to the video was taken down, but the gist of the video was that the fake Obama proved how he hasn't done anything since he's been in office. He listed all the promises that he made during the campaign and showed how he hasn't been able to complete any of these items. Some of the items in the list were healthcare reform, close Guatanamo Bay, pull out of Iraq, and others items.
I thought that overall, the video was pretty funny. It's meant to be a spoof, and I took it as such, even though a lot of the people in class took it a lot more seriously.
I must admit that a little part of me was a little sad for the President because, being a supporter, I do agree that all of these things that made me vote for him haven't been accomplished yet.
All I can say is that it is still early, and the President was handed a country with a great many problems that can't possibly be solved in less than one year. There's still hope for our new President yet.
Edit: Here is a link to the video on Hulu.
