Paterson Whines About SNL Skits

Yet another whiny Democrat with very thin skin.

Legally blind New York Gov. David Paterson is comparing "Saturday Night Live" to a bunch of third graders making fun of disabled people.

The Democrat says the show's second skit featuring him as a clueless blind man with a checkered past of youthful drug use and womanizing promotes insensitivity against the disabled.

The segment last week featured cast member Fred Armisen - with one eye closed most of the time, the other focused on his own nose - unable to see the host or a prop.

Answering a reporter's question Thursday, Paterson said the show's continued parodies hurt disabled people not in a position to fight back.

Paterson needs to lighten and grow a pair. The same goes for other Democrats who can't handle criticism, with Barack Obama being a prime example for all his sniveling over Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.

I seem to recall Sarah Palin being the target of constant ridicule on SNL and she took it in stride and even appeared on the program. George W. Bush was the subject of merciless ridicule for eight years and I never once heard him whine about it.

If anything, Paterson should probably appear on the show to demonstrate he can take a joke. Otherwise, they'll probably just pile on knowing the struck a nerve.
