(Newser) – Will Ferrell returned to his old stomping grounds on Saturday Night Live last night, reports the Hollywood Reporter, in a retro-laden performance that made it seem like he was never gone. Ferrell trotted out his George W Bush to commiserate with Jason Sudeikis' Joe Biden, dejected after having been upstaged by President Obama on gay marriage. "I feel ya," Dubya told him over a not-beer. "I used to catch grief all the time from President Cheney." But at least the issue is totally solved now: "Mission Accomplished!," he crowed. "It's just something I like to say when a problem isn't solved, but I don't like to talk about it anymore."

Why not link to NBC.com?   Hulu barely works any more.

We needed Dubya back, if only for the laughs.
