Here is an SNL oldie but a goodie inspired by this week’s hearings. This was when SNL was really good with the late Phil Hartman playing Senator Teddy Kennedy and Chris Farley playing Senator Howell Heflin. Remember Heflin from Alabama (Session’s predecessor)? This was the guy who when he was at a dinner and was about to sneeze reached into his pocket to pull out a handkerchief and out came a pair of panties. Ooops!  The irony in this skit is now Senator Al Franken playing Senator Paul Simon.



Life imitating art…
