Ima just take this KZfaq comment as fact.

For the folks at home, Al Gore was the Vice President under Bill Clinton who'd later run for President and lose in the raucous 2000 election. He was married to Tipper Gore, and the two met at their High School prom. Later he attended Harvard, where he actually befriended future Oscar winner Tommy Lee Jones.

Not priceless enough. Apparently.

@@NitroGummyBear How about you read and learn, little man?

@@fshoaps projection.

Yes. Its much better than the ones today. Both sides being made fun of equally. It was about making fun of everything. Not trying to send a political message.

@@meltedmarshdaddy then the 2 candidates should have equal potential for comedy. Anyone with common sense can realize trump is way easier to satirize than Biden.

That was Will Farrell? I thought W was guest hosting that day.

Ikr! He has a look of genuine "this is hurting my brain" on his face.

Its my favorite quote. Think Bush has the same problem I do, where my brain scrambles words making weird sentences.

OMG I laughed so hard!

He really said that huh? HAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!!!!

@@TheBee87bee no, he didn't. but it's fun to think that he did.

@@TheBee87bee Sure did, far as I can tell. No idea what he meant by it.

Mike Oley Darrell almond does a great Clinton.

It's even crazier when you look into the psychiatric state he was in during this time. If I'm not mistaken he had a panic attack and cut himself (self-harm) badly on his forearm before doing this sketch.

haha

That erea Will Ferrell was really not one of the break out stars as much as people think he was. I concede Ferrell's W impressions were enarly spot on but Hammond and Meadows and Silverman and Morgan ran circles around Ferrell.

He never misses

Me too

Same

thats a good strategery to make friends!

What is the meaning? I want to use it too! It should be added to dictionary.

Guilty.

I forgot that Bush often looked like he was in pain. But he dodged those shoes like a boss.

That was a debate between Trump and Chris Wallace

Jason Wood President Bush was seen as being dumber than bag of rocks. Then his numbers went up after 9/11

Really? I'm very clueless on that time period since I was born a year after that. So his popularity grew?

Dark Tales Production when 9/11 happened he got the highest approval numbers ever until President Obama. People liked President Bush’s “were gonna get em” speech. His numbers went down around 2006 to the lowest ever for any President, beating his father who had the lowest numbers previously.

Jerry Smith He didn’t, but his lowest was only off Nixon’s by 1 (25% approval to Nixon’s 24%). The rating officially only goes back to FDR, but Truman has the official all time lowest at 22%.

@Lorgar I think it had to do with Bush appearing calm and collected in the face of the attacks and the national anxiety that persisted afterwards. Whether that was because he is a strong leader who stays calm in a crisis, or because he was a dopey moron who didn't really understand what was happening, I can't really say. But he did give people a sense that "everything's going to be OK" in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, and he gained a huge amount of popularity from that. Probably because we didn't know at the time that if his administration had taken Richard Clarke (head of the National Security Council) seriously for even 5 minutes, the attacks might have been prevented. They saw him as a Clinton Appointee and just sidelined him for 8 months as he was running around Washington with reports of suspected Saudi terrorists attending flight schools in the US.

at first i thought the description got the actors mixed up lol

Is that part supposed me something or is it just jibberish

@@BrianSmith-yq7ys I think it was supposed to mean that the kids would be enjoying the exquisite sex and wholesome violence mentioned in the previous sentence, and that Bush would help to make it happen! 😉

Lockbox

LOCKBOX!

You must truly consider yourself a funny guy.

W himself got Mandela'd into believing he'd actually said "strategery" at some point. It was so glorious.

And $113 MILLION dollars a day!! 🤣

Chadster357 if you think Bush is actually stupid you're insane. He graduated top his class at Yale and Harvard Business, and is well spoken on immigration law and policy. His public speaking is just hilarious... almost to the point that it could be a show lol

Will Nickell LMAO!!! "Top of his class at Yale?!?!" He was a C student who graduated with a 2.35 average. Look it up! You're actually under the impression that W. Bush is an intellectual?

I just realized who was in that role. Really hard to tell it was him until the, "Live from New York."

Yeah this skit illustrates why Gore lost. If only by 537 votes.

Tucker Bowen Both Bush and Gore would be a dream compared to a lot of the rubes that have gone through Capitol Hill in recent memory 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!

I said the same thing in 2008 and 2012

That amputated syphilis line was too damn funny😂😂😂😂😂😂

People must be saying who in their right mind would vote for either of these idiots.

Nope, no: this was the moment when things really got screwed. The Supreme Court really did ruin democracy by stepping in and preventing votes from being counted, effectively handing the presidency to Bush.

After suffering through Hussein Obama, I agree.

Chandler White

Objectively speaking the body count of Cheney / Bush is still much higher. 190,000 corona deaths nonwithstanding. And also that of Obama (even though the deaths from his admin are more in other countries (Yemen, Syria, Libya). Bush, apart from the wars he started. The fallout from the Great Financial Crisis. Under Obama: big auto and the banksters were saved and the voters were thrown under the bus. 5,5 milion homes forclosed. The opiode crisis must have started under Bush (I am making an assumption), and needless to say the Obama admin also could not be bothered to step on the toes of big pharma in order to protect the public. Many people overdose, many people get caught up in addiction, families ripped apart, children in foster care. the violence that accompagnies drug dealing. people lose their sense of morality if they are seriously addicted. They can become good citizens again if they get and stay sober - but under the wrong circumstances they might kill or harm someone while crazy on drugs, a burglary gone wrong and the shoot someone while being stressed out, etc. Or they steal from close family and friends. (money from a beloved sister, the wedding ring the mother inherited from the grandmother, etc.) Addiction has a massive societal fallout. Unless a nation goes the path of Portugal. Needless to say Obama the neoliberal took did not use his platform to there is a big societal collateral damage from these drugs. Insuline costs 10 times more in the U.S. like the same product in Canada. if you are responsible for the healthcare of a nation - the wellbeing but also what it costs, it is not so much about the spectacular surgery. It is the normal, generic things that must function. How you handle prevention, diabetes, heart attacks, strokes, and that people go the the doctor early (often that helps to minimize harm or allows for a full recovery). Untreated or poorly managed diabetes (rationing insanely expenisve insuline) is a disaster - in everyrespect. And it will result in high costs later, but that spending will not even get you good outcomes for the patients. The insurers and big pharma do not care about the misery or the high costs later - it does not harm _them._ Under Bush the law was introduced (or it was consolidated) that no government agency can negotiate drug prices. Only VA can (and they brought prices down by 40 %). The private insurers are not interested in the battle of giants, they just pass on the too high costs. It is not like the consumers could abstain from buying. Necessary treatments / drugs are not like consumer products, no one can stop buying if they think it is a rip off. Under Obama Big Pharma got more perks (ACA was a very industry friendly "reform", the government just props up the dysfunction with a lot of money. drug companies got patent extensions !). and then again under Trump (testing for drugs was already fast, and they are now allowed to progress even faster. Plus of course the tax cuts for big biz). 30,000 people die from lack of healthcare coverage every year (Harvard study in Obama era, with ACA). A more recent study puts the death toll more in the range of 60,000. That is 300,000 - 600,000 people in 10 years, and unlike corona virus it will not stop at some point. Democrats ALSO gladly accept that collateral damage resulting from their service for the big donors. Never mind Republicans.
