#2 This is the same comedian who did an impression of Bush.

Bush used him at a National Press club dinner - they both appeared together. It takes a strong, self-confident man to appear with someone who is known for mocking him, and taking part in the mockery himself.

I can't see Obama doing the same thing. He's too full of himself.
