I normally am a very apolitical person. Politics not only bore me, but they disgust me in such a manner that I can hardly find the words to describe it. But when I heard about You’re Welcome, America: A Final Night with George W. Bush I had to see it. For those who don’t know what it is, it is a one man show written and performed by Will Ferrell, reprising his most famous character from his SNL glory days. He plays Bush as a glorified, cocky idiot (how else would Ferrell play him?). Ferrell’s performance is unflinching, and it is especially great that he never breaks character even once. While I’ve always maintained the attitude of trying not to criticize the president too much, I will say that this show had a good mix of scathing satire and simply poking fun. If you are a Will Ferrell fan, or if you were one of the many Bush haters, this is a must own. Just remember, it’s for mature audiences only.
