"It looked like he took my million and spent it all on weed."

- HBO "Real Time" host Bill Maher bemoaning President Obama's debate performance against Mitt Romney on his show Friday night. (In February, the comedian donated $1 million to the president's super-PAC). Maher wasn't the only comic to mock POTUS' lackluster display. On "SNL," the opening depicted a daydreaming Obama at the debate podium, thinking about everything except the task at hand. The comedy show also made fun of the MSNBC pundits' reactions to the first presidential debate. Big Bird also made a cameo to comment on Romney's statement that he would cut PBS' funding.
