Can you give me some of your least favorite Bush ribs from 2009 on? Which cast member(s) played Bush after 2009?
I'm not saying I have any least favorites. I really don't care, but they definitely used him for comedy. Also, why 2009 on? Obviously they're going to rip him only while he's in office. Will Ferrell has brought him back into the fold of SNL.
Will Ferrell

During the 2000 campaign and first year of his presidency, Bush was portrayed on Saturday Night Live by Will Ferrell, who emphasized the innocent, childlike aspect of the character (in one skit Jeb Bush (played by Val Kilmer) gives George a toy to play with so he can talk with Al Gore). Ferrell played Bush from 1999 to 2002, until he departed from the show. Cast member Chris Parnell took over the portrayal of Bush when Ferrell left. Since Parnell's impression was not as popular as Ferrell's, cast member Darrell Hammond was selected to replace him as Bush in late 2003. Hammond made only two appearances as Bush, and was replaced by cast member Will Forte in 2004. Forte chose to portray Bush as less innocent and more nervous. Although Forte's portrayal was far more popular than either Parnell's or Hammond's, it was never as well-received as Ferrell's. Newer cast member Jason Sudeikis took over the role from Forte in 2006 for unexplained reasons. Will Ferrell reprised the role when he hosted.

Talking about former Presidents. SNL doesn't really go after people who aren't Presidents. Also, losers of elections. Hillary isn't getting the business right now; neither did Romney, nor McCain, nor Kerry, nor Gore, nor Dole after they lost their respective elections.
