On "Imus" this morning, New York Gov. David Paterson (D) reacts to the portrayal of him on "Saturday Night Live."

"I can take a joke about my disability. I make fun of my own disability," he says. "I don't bounce off walls. And if anyone at Saturday Night Live would like to have me on, we could find out.  Maybe I could bounce of few left hands off of them.”

He goes on to say that nearly 70 percent of blind people are not working, and that spoofs like the one on "SNL" perpetuates a stereotype that someone who's blind can't contribute.

"They need Sarah Palin to come back on," he says in one last parting shot about their ratings.

Paterson also talks about his support from the White House, saying President Obama never personally asked him not to run for a full term. Asked if Obama would campaign for him, he said, "If I'm the Democratic candidate, I wouldn't think he'd have a problem doing that."

Here's the latest "SNL" Paterson spoof from this weekend's show.
