Some kind of funny, just because its so ridiculous. And un Apple. Looks more like a Windows announcement.
I really prefer:
-"It's an iHouse!"
-"But there's no Windows!"
-"Exactly MuaHaHaHaHaHaH!!"

thats more of a rip on pres bush isnt it? irack sounds like iraq, 20,00 more troops like money...lots of similarites...no plan...its kinda rippin on the war

You guys aren't getting i they are making fun of Prez Bush. Instead of taking out the soldiers in Iraq he puts more in, hence the term iRack-Iraq. So get the joke before you bash it. Personally I thought that this skit was very clever but not really that funny.

I actually liked this. I've seen a lot of hate-comments since it aired, and I guess I found the last one they did (the iPhone) a bit more funny, but for political satire, this one really isn't all that bad.

I can't believe that this is a forum for Apple geeks and nobody yet has recognized the fact that the "iBook" that is shown in the skit is really a PowerBook. I guess they had trouble finding one or had difficulties reading the writing underneath the screen? But I guess it is just a skit and its primary goal was to make fun of Bush’s plan not showcasing Apple’s products, which by the way would have made it so much better. ☺

This is a pun on apple & Iraq situation. When Apple releases a product some people criticize it & it is sometime sunstable. Also Steve J is bush, That Apple Spokeswoman is probably laura bush, The audience is the American public & the new products well... u get it.
VERY IMPORTANT: STEVE JOBS IS A DEMOCRAT

If you listen closely, I think this sketch had a second meaning.

heh this was a very funny skit at the start and then I love how it changed into a dig at George Bush. Clever.

Ah, MadTV!
Masterful, as always:
"There IS no exit... strategy."
That's a milk shooting out the nose line, with that precise timing.
