Correction: October 12, 2012
An earlier version of this article gave an incorrect surname for the "Family Ties" character played by Michael J. Fox. The character was Alex Keaton, not Keating.If I remember more correctly than BoBo, Alex Keaton was humorless prick who lived with his parents well into his twenties and attended college but never created -- or held -- a job.
BoBo's thinking of the convicted bankster who would have bought Paul Ryan in the 80s if Ryan was 30 years older.

Keating is Gabriel Byrne's character in The Usual Suspects, no?
ReplyDeleteI suspect Brooks's unconscious was telling him to Tell the Truth.
Oops. Apparently Byrne played Dean Keaton. (So much for my hearing.)
ReplyDeleteWhich is still a more true comparison than Alex Keaton, except for the "sponged off his parents and never got a real job on his own" part, which matches Mittster to a tee.
