Truly fine comedy is the ability to subtly poke fun at a larger truth, not take a ham handed swipe at an easy target. But considering that Obama has bought off the pharmaceutical industry and all those greedy executives, perhaps Ferrell has struck comedic gold.

Who would have figured that this group would be capable of such nuanced political satire.

Will Farrel, you can kiss my ass!

You should know better than to spread YouTube videos that violate copyright. 😉

A link to the original can be found at my blog. (I’m too lazy to go get it myself right now since I’m aleady multitasking.)
