Man. So, Google Video now has the stuff from C-SPAN for the Colbert performance, and Bush’s thing with that lookalike guy. I figured, WTF, I should watch the Bush thing, just to see whether there was anything even marginally funny about it, and holy shit, no. It’s genuinely one of the dumbest things I’ve ever seen. Obvious, stupid jokes, completely hamfisted delivery, and makes fun of some of the most inane and idiotic crap I’ve ever seen. Holy shit.

In comparison, Colbert is incredibly witty, relevant, and genuinely a lot *less offensive* than the President’s performance, to me. It doesn’t trivialize important issues – instead, it sheds light on how badly the administration has botched those issues. Bush’s performance, on the other hand, shows that he simply doesn’t understand anything about what he’s talking about.

Bleah.

WARNING: really fucking stupid.
