Comedian

The Resume

    (May 22, 1963-March 3, 2012)
    Born in Dallas, Texas
    Impressionist
    Best known for impersonating George W. Bush

Why he might be annoying:

    Almost all of his movie and TV appearances were as Bush.
    It required two and half hours of applying prosthetics and makeup to make him look like Bush.
    His actual appearance was described as 'safely hip, like, say, a drummer in a Canadian rock band.'
    He donned blackface to impersonate Barack Obama.

Why he might not be annoying:

    Between regular appearances at conventions and a weekly check from The Tonight Show to keep him on an exclusive retainer, in many years he earned more money by being Bush than Bush earned by being President.
    One critic said, 'He does Bush as well as Bush does, maybe even better.'
    He appeared alongside the real George W. Bush at the White House Correspondents Association's dinner, delivering the President's inner thoughts (2006).
