Funny or Die: A Presidential (SNL) Reunion

[myrna minx]

I can't possibly be the first person to post this?!

Brief description: President Obama and Michelle are visited by every SNL President, since Ford to decry the CFPA:


On edit: From Chevy Chase and Dan Aykroid to Will Ferrell and Jim Cary- this bit, which is directed by Ron Howard is a must see!

5. Only problem: Jimmy Carter NEVER shouts! and when he does, it sounds like a loud whisper

[dflprincess]

6. It's laugh out loud great

it's also shown in the last 10 minutes or so on "Countdown" tonight

But when did Dan Akroyd get so old? It was just a couple years ago when he was playing Jimmy Carter on SNL (I suppose that means, when did I get so old?)

7. Unfortunately, he looked more like Charles Durning than Jimmy Carter,

but the sketch was still hilarious!! Mr. Obama, please watch this sketch!

10. Heck, he used to play Carter when he had dark hair and a mustache!

Ackroyd never cared about looking the part.

15. That's a classic!

11. It's too bad Phil Hartman couldn't have been there.

His Clinton was better than Hammond's, but his Reagan was light years better than Carrey's.
