I think it's Mike Myers' reaction that makes it priceless. After deadpanning through the first rant, and doing the scripted link, he takes a second to process Kanye's thoughts on George Bush, and just turns around, presumably stunned.

(To be fair, it wasn't at all funny to Serene or anyone else there at the time - I read it was transient aphasia due to a severe migraine aura. Scary if it happens to you. (Video)
