Funnies

Late Night with Conan O'Brien:

O'Brien: O'Brien: "I thought we'd help out by doing some sample SAT analogies. Doesn't it sound like a good idea? [GRAPHIC]

"Bill Clinton is to 'It's the economy stupid,' as John Kerry is to 'The subject for general debate remains the fiduciary state of our nation's individuals, corporations and limited liability partnerships in conjunction with the fluctuation in interest rates, both variable and fixed, all of which must be filtered through the prism of long term projections vis-à-vis the rate of employment and the gross national product.'"

Late Show with David Letterman:

Letterman: "Did you hear about this? The first presidential debate will be in Florida. Haven't those people suffered enough?"

The Tonight Show with Jay Leno:

Leno: "What are your thoughts on the candidates?"

Jon Stewart (guest): "I do want to say in President Bush's defense: Iraq did not have weapons of mass destruction or a link to al Qaeda, but Iran, as it turns out, does have weapons of mass destruction and a link to al Qaeda. So when you think about it — and really, give credit where credit is due — we were off by only one letter!"

The Daily Show with Jon Stewart:

Stewart: "Well Stephen, what do you think is going to happen now at CBS News?"

Stephen Colbert: "Well John, there's got to be some accountability. Dan Rather is the head — the Commander in Chief if you will — of his organization. He's someone in the ultimate position who made a harmful decision based upon questionable evidence. Then to make things worse, he stubbornly refused to admit his mistake, choosing instead to stay the course and essentially occupy this story for too long. This man has got to go."
