SNL nails 'Schoolhouse Rock' parody




You remember the Schoolhouse Rock song, I'm Just a Bill, right? It's about the path a bill must take to become a law:



Saturday Night Live parodied the popular civics song, by introducing Bobby Moynihan's Executive Order into the mix. He interrupts Bill's (Kenan Thompson) long, educational song, with:
"I'm an executive order, and I pretty much just happen. (Puffs on his cigarette.) And that's it.... I'll create a national park, or a new holiday..."
President Obama (Jay Pharoah) cuts in:
"...Or grant legal status to 5 million undocumented immigrants."



Yep, that pretty much explains what Obama just did.
