SNL Parodies ‘Rahmbo’

White House Chief of Staff-designate Rahm Emanuel was parodied on Saturday Night Live this weekend in a skit that did not make it to air.

The skit features a sedate Emanuel (played by SNL actor Andy Samberg), explaining why he took the job, and trying to tamp down his reputation as a figure prone to get hot under the collar.

But when Emanuel reaches House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), who criticized Emanuel’s selection as chief of staff as a partisan pick, the skit goes off on an expletive-laden tirade, in which Emanuel promises, “To anyone thinking about crossing me: I will [expletive] end you.”

A video of the sketch, which many not be safe for work, is below:
