George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush Go Hunting - SNL

@@edmann1820 Well true but I still don't think W. deserved to die. Obviously he did a terrible thing but he didn't mean for so many civilians to get killed, part of it is actually the military's (generals especially) fault. Just cuz he is the "commander in chief" doesn't mean he actually controls the troops once the battles START, you know?

Is there is hidden meaning?

[@trogdorthe8th]

@@JAMMIM19 The assumption many have made is that there was supposed to be a gag where Dana hits Will, like a fake slap, but the person in charge of sound didn't make it go off so it looked ridiculous. So the two of them just had to play it off and try not to break character.

[@salwaaj1356]

@@trogdorthe8th the way i saw it, it was not meant to be a blow at all, but a gesture to demonstrate the son's short attention span, like a hypoactive kid or a puppy that would follow a hand's movement instinctively and lose focus on anything else going on..then go back to the antlers as he saw them for the first time,..then the gun.

My dad and I went to Las Vegas for my 16th birthday and we saw Dana Carvey and his two sons doing a show there. Dana was talking about how he met George W. Bush at the White House and George thought he did a very good impression of him. Bush actually requested if Dana could do an impression right then and there. Dana then imitated him by calling one of the security guards outside the room and one came in actually thinking it was really Bush.

He made mistakes but also was given a horrible hand. He brought our entire Economy back, ended Iraq passed the ACA insuring 37 million without healthcare, and passed the Lilly Ledbetter Act for equal pay, clean energy, oversaw killin Bin Laden, watched Marriage Equality pass Signing it into Law, Dropped Veteran Homeless Rate by 50%, increased VA Funding, "Negotiated" Iran Nuclear Armistice, won the Noble Peace Prize & the Credit Card Responsibility & Disclosure Act. Trump has passed a bloated tax cut of $1.5 Trillion to our Deficit for the Top 1% of our Country, & A Shut Down.
