ABC'S CHARLIE GIBSON: In each instance, when the Capital Gains rate was dropped, revenues from the tax increased; the government took in more money. And in the 1980s, when the tax was increased to 28 percent, the revenues went down. So why raise it at all, especially given the fact that 100 million people in this country own stock and would be affected?

OBAMA: Well, Charlie, what I've said is that I would look at raising the capital gains tax for purposes of fairness.

I can see why the Left would ban it.

The only reason this got yanked is because it violates copyright law from NBC/Universal. Believe me, there are many times I have problems finding Tina Fey's impression on Youtube. Last year there were hundreds of abreviated episodes of Family Guy on Youtube... then boom.. they were yanked. Oooh! Vast left-wing conspiracy!

It's those pesky facts again.... nbc has a copyright arrangement with youtube.... nothing that SNL does is allowed to stay up.

man, still think the paperboy should get a different route.. or at least learn a little truthiness.

Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi was the world's most unhinged lunatic. He's now dead. So that moves Ann Coulter up to first place - David Letterman

All the other SNL skits are available...

psssst...

All the videos are available here:

Saturday Night Live - All Videos - Newest - Video - NBC.com

I realize it may seem odd to actually go to the SNL website to watch SNL videos, but hey, call me crazy.

Guess what? They never pull them off that sight. Hmmmm...wonder why?

I didn't see it there but even so they are not letting You Tube show it where it could go viral but the other SNL skits are allowed to be posted.

Sorry I was not more specific. The Palin skits.

Even ABC's Political Punch site says the SNL "bailout" skit was pulled:

On that topic, the video of a Saturday Night Live skit that mocked Frank and criticized Democrats and some mortgage owners for their roles in the housing and financial crisis has been removed from NBC's website, prompting myriad conspiracy theories among the conservative blogosphere.

(You can read a transcript of the skit HERE or watch a version of it HERE.)The skit singled out for ridicule Herb and Marion Sandler, who sold their savings-and-loan Golden West to Wachovia for $24.3 billion in October 2006.

Golden West, critics say, thrived by allowing borrowers to defer the interest on their monthly payments with adjustable rate mortgages, ultimately leaving borrowers with debt they could not afford to pay off.

Sandler spoke to the AP Sunday about his feelings that he's being "unfairly tarred."

Personally, I laughed my ass off when I watched the skit, especially Armisen's Barney Frank impersonation.

I still haven't seen the video. All the links here are broken, and its not on NBCs website. Looks like the libs are working overtime to clean things up.

Rush says it will be up on his site today.

You can read the transcript at Michelle Malkin's site here
