Stuff like this is more likely to turn me off than it is to sway me in a positive direction.

Who's Jon Hamm? I recognized the guy who plays Turk on Scrubs and Will Farrell and that was about it.

He's the guy who's become a bigger star after his show Mad Men got more popular. Don't know if you've heard of the show. I haven't seen it yet but it's becoming pretty big.
Notwithstanding my support for health care reform (WITH public option) and my fondness for Will Farrell this is pretty lame. Thirty seconds after the set up it's pretty much over. This looks like one of the B-minus TV spoofs SNL has been doing for decades -- and it's not as good as most of them.
More unsettling is MSNBC/Countdown (Larence O'Donnell filling in) touting this as a newsworthy salvo in the health care wars. Oy, this thing is SO off point and only mildly funny.

Dude, I usually keep it laid back when it comes to perspectives, but you are officially an over-starched collar.
For christs sake, Will Ferrell says "a mini-zoo in you backyard."
LOL
Great comedy.
TinSoldier - you are obviously immune to the charms of Jon Hamm - unlike some others of us ... just sayin' ... : )
