Either you posted the wrong link, or someone has evolved a new generation or rickroll.

Unavailable if you try to watch on Metafilter, but if you click the link... well I don't know if King Tut by Steve Martin is an effective allegory for Mccain/Palin.

Kicks me over to UK Youtube and...Steve Martin doing King Tut.

Yes! SteveRolled! Let this be the new meme. I want to see how many times its gonna take before I'm sick of King Tut. I bet its gonna be a lot more than the RickRoll.

I came into this thread to say how I was absolutely distraught that you would post this while I was at work and can't listen to it, but it seems I'm not missing much after all.

Nothing against Steve Martin, but I was really really really looking forward to the video described...

"Hey, check out this Very Serious Political Issue! (Posts a link to a 30 year old stand up bit, which just happened to be on the clipboard for some reason.)"

For OP's sake, I hope this is *not* what happened.

Steve Martin stand-up with Henry Winkler lurking in (holding) the background?

I can't wait until Palin is also an amusing piece of ancient history.
