Political subjects have always been in their "lexicon of subject material". Dan Aykroyd made fun of Jimmy Carter.

Again, I said "when SNL was at it's best was when political satire wasn't in their lexicon of subject material." That wasn't as exclusion. Go look at their "best of" catalog, you won't find any skits of Hillary slinging beers, Obama singing songs, or the first lady saying "ermahgerd" over and over. Cuz it isn't funny. It's an endorsement.
They can cover whatever subject they want. I really don't care as I don't watch anymore. The cast, and writing have all went downhill.
