Here's what some comedians have had to say about recent events in American politics.
"The Tonight Show with Jay Leno":
"President Bush released his tax returns yesterday. He listed the economy as a 'liability.' So he gets to write that off."
"President Bush listed his income as $822,000. You know what John Kerry calls someone who earned $822,000? Not even worth dating."
"How many watched President Bush's entire speech last night? (mild applause) How many are gonna watch the final episode of 'The Apprentice' tomorrow night? (huge applause) See, that's the problem, right there! You get the government you deserve."
"Late Show with David Letterman":
"It was a tough press conference for President Bush. He spent the first ten minutes trying to pronounce 'Fallujah."'
"Bush insisted that Iraq was not another Vietnam. Well of course not; he avoided Vietnam."
"The press conference came from the White House. Maybe you heard this noise in the background, a small commotion, shuffling around and things being moved. I called my buddy down at the White House ... and asked him what that noise was in the background. And he said, 'Oh, oh, that was John Kerry measuring for drapes."'
"Late Night with Conan O'Brien":
"President Bush said he could not remember a single mistake he had made in the last two years. The president's exact quote was, 'I ain't made none mistakes never."'
"Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn":
"President Bush got some bad news after his televised speech. The FCC fined him $10,000 for saying 'Shiite."'
