Not just still relevant
More relevant.
The shot at Fred ("I'm not Ronald Reagan, but I sort of played someone just like him on TV") Thompson is dead on, but the commentary on what has happened to our ideals, and our idealism, in the last 20 years is even more on target.
Idealists are fruitcakes or idiots - ask any Republican or hard core liberal, and they'll tell you. For a country that was founded by the greatest idealists in history, and built on the highest of ideals, that is the saddest commentary of all.
Thank you, George Bush.
