Were Obama and Pelosi supposed to have been transformed into cats? I didn't understand the narrative of this film at all except for the rickroll.

And they needed to add the note about Googling "rick roll"?

Weak sauce.

Impeachment is off the table. But the cats aren't.

I often try to find the positive in most mefi posts as mine get snarked on a lot but this one is difficult.

I don't get the cats and then the Rick Roll doesn't seem to be conclusive. Like there was no epic moment and then TADA RICK ASTLEY.

I guess what I'm trying to say that this was a not best of the web.

My excuse is I have a fever, and I've already flagged it myself.

I'm torn as to whether I'd prefer Congress spent its time making cat videos on youtube or, you know, governing.

I can sort of appreciate the intent of this video, but the cat thing was so boring I had to skip ahead straight to the Rick roll. Then I watched just the Rick roll part again. Then I closed the window.
