George W. Bush & Kanye West Reconcile On 'Weekend Update' (VIDEO)

George W. Bush shocked people recently when he revealed that Kanye West calling him a racist after Hurricane Katrina was the worst moment of his presidency. Matt Lauer was able to get an apology from West and show it to Bush, who said he "wasn't a hater," but the two have yet to meet face to face to show the beef has come to end.

That is until last night, on "Saturday Night Live," when the former President and the hip hop star met on "Weekend Update" to prove that they have reconciled. Despite Bush thinking that West's name is "Conway," the two have gone sunglasses shopping, "cleared the brush" on Bush's ranch and both have interrupted important things before (although you might argue Bush's interruption was a lot more substantial).

I won't be suprized when I hear Kanye whining about this in the near future. Anything that makes fun of him or doesn't make him out to be god, he doesn't like.

I cant figure out who I hate more, Bush or Kanye. Both are the worst america has to offer. Although, I would rather have a beer with Bush.

Funny video but really, Bush supporters, in his book, Bush claims that the worst moment of his Administration was being called a racist by Kanye West.

Wow, for a supposed leader to consider what this one hot-tempered individual THINKS or SAYS about him to be the worst part of his Administration tells volumes. Really, this is worse than the fact that his decisions (Iraq, Katrina) led to the deaths of thousands of innocent civilians is not much worse proves that this guy was far from the "Compassionate Conservative" he and Karl Rove marketed Bush as.

Some of my former co-workers had the picture of Bush asking "Do you miss me yet?" Why miss someone who has ruined our country? These people are racist and Kanye was (partially) right when he said that Bush didn't care about black people. Oh, Kanye, Bush didn't and doesn't care about so much more than that my friend. You said it too plain and simple (maybe that's why Bush thinks that's the worst of his Presidency -- he can relate to the plain and simple but nothing else, like countries calling him a war criminal -- he probably doesn't know what that means exactly giving the fact he was surrounding by them).
