Remember that campaign commercial about the White House getting a phone call at 3:00 am? It was neat how SNL wove that into Obama being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
Comedians worried that they might not be able to have fun with Obama as the president as they had when W and Clinton were in the White House. Turns out not to be the case, fortunately for democracy. Of course, Obama himself has been quite in the clear and no jokes about his individual self. But, there is a theme emerging--while the jokes are about the events surrounding him, Obama is in the center of those jokes.
