'Saturday Night Live' scorches Obama policies

"Saturday Night Live" opened its show last night with a comedy sketch that scorched President Obama over his economic policies including health care, "Cash for Clunkers" and borrowing billions of dollars from China.

The NBC program featured comic Fred Armisen portraying the commander in chief at a news conference with Chinese President Hu Jintao, played by Will Forte, who spoke through an interpreter, comic Nasim Pedrad.



Hu began by asking Obama about the success of his economic stimulus.

"I'm curious. How many jobs has it created?" asked the Chinese leader.

"None," answered Obama. "But our health-care reform plan, we're confident, is going to lead to enormous savings."
