Fred Armisen's impression still blows, but the tone of the sketch is still, how you say, scathing. And, rare for an SNL skit this season, it's actually pretty funny.
I wonder if this skit is a reflection of the national mood. Obama's polling below 50 per cent in some polls, and people are still very obviously very uneasy about the economy. Things will turn around, but until they do, expect more sketches and comedy pieces (on The Daily Show) like this.
Or, when NBC inevitably pulls that Youtube video down, watch it where you're supposed to, here:
