You guys, Will Ferrell came back to SNL for a brief, shining moment last night to reprise his cheerfully idiotic George W. imitation, and it was magnificent. The sketch showed W. trying to endorse the McCain/Palin ticket, a ticket that wants to get as far away from George as possible. The highlight of the sketch was when W. praised Sarah Palin's folksy affect. "Thank you, Mr. President," Fey's Palin responds. "I'd like to think I'm one part practiced folksy, one part sassy and a little dash of high school bitchy." Clip above.
