Anybody watching Will Ferrell's "Final Night With George W. Bush"?

It's live now on HBO.

I'm trying hard and Ferrell is doing a good caricature as usual ... but it's just too damn painful to watch. Frankly, I would rather not slip back into that nightmare, if only to snicker at it. How the hell did we survive this chimpish bastard's reign of mischief, terror, and incompetence?

1. I think it's hystericall Here's a thread, and I saw a few others:

He's bringing up a lot of recent history and making Bush look like the dumbass he was.

3. Thanks, babylonsister.

I must say the Condi bit was pretty ... hot. :)

If nothing else, it's confirming the chimp's "laughing stock" status. Still...it makes me both sad and livid to think this buffoon was the 43rd person to occupy the Oval office...for eight long years.

4. You need to watch it again-so do I. But I really laughed.

I thought this was very well done and entertaining.

And what's done is done. I will never forgive or forget what happened with this repugnant person in office, but this is a different way for lots of people to not forget, or to go wtf and educate themselves.

Very cool.

8. Just saw the Condi part (show is on now on the West Coast),

and oh man!

2. Yeah. The ONLY reasons I can watch it is because everyone knows how much of a failure he was AND

we got President Obama thanks to him. Will Ferrell breaks it down for ANYONE to be able to understand.

5. I had the same reaction--Ferrell's very talented, but there was a certain

amount of pain in reflecting that someone like this was our (p)resident for eight years.

6. Truth is, about 7500 Americans and 150,000 Iraqis didn't survive those eight years!

7. Your numbers are way off.

Google Lancet Report from Nov. 06 and carry on from there. You'll be amazed. And that's just the Iraqis from a few years ago...

Then think about what we don't know regarding our numbers. Who's included? Suicides? They should be.
