Late night political humor
"Former secretary of State Colin Powell said Wednesday that it is time to face reality and recognize Iraq is in a state of civil war. Powell made the statement after growing what are known as 'retirement balls.'"
---Amy Poehler
-

"President Bush met with the Iraqi Prime Minister Maliki. Afterwards President Bush said 'Maliki is the right man for the job.' Just to remind you, President Bush also said FEMA's Michael Brown was the right man for the job. Donald Rumsfeld right man for the job. Tom DeLay was the right man for the job. Which would be okay...if Bush was the right man for the job."
---Jay Leno
-

"NBC has announced that they will now refer to the Iraq war as a civil war. President Bush said no, no, no, no, no, it's not a civil war until it becomes a series of Time-Life books."
---David Letterman
-

"The White House announced today that it was banning the sale of iPods to North Korea. President Bush said, "If North Korea is going to make nuclear weapons then we won't let them listen to Coldplay."
---Conan O'Brien
-

"A Trainer at Sea World Adventure Park in San Diego was hospitalized Thursday in San Diego after a killer whale grabbed him and twice held him underwater during a show. On the bright side, the trainer did give up the location of three al Qaeda hideouts."
---Seth Myers

1. Funny!
Thanks for sharing the "growth" of Colin Powell and the real reason the orca held that trainer under water!

2. Jay Leno is slime.
It's not that long ago that Leno's show was basically a GOP pep rally. Now that Fuhrer Fratboy's numbers are dropping to record lows, and the ratings whores at NBC have decided it's okay to criticize, Jay's suddenly making with the Bush jokes like he was doing it all along.

I wish I were old enough to have watched Johnny Carson.

4. Sorry to disagree with you. I have watched Leno for years
and he makes fun of everyone regardless of political party. The guy who imitates Bush best of all first appeared on the Leno show. Leno has always joked about Bush's stupidity.

5. Unfortunately Leno's too much of a wimp to do a Bush joke without
"balancing" it with a stale Bill & Monica joke.
