With the autumn return of NBC's "Saturday Night Live" with all new installments, the traditionally reliable pro-Obama skits may be on the back burner as the voter opposition to the president is at an all time high, according to Gallup. The actor portraying President Obama was the same as last season, Jay Pharoah, but this past Saturday< >night, the writers seemed to have been paying attention a bit more to the real president's actual job performance.  In a takeoff of the recent "60 Minutes" interview with Obama, SNL had a little bit of fun at the president's expense in the cold open, mocking his growing list of problems.
