Funnies: 'Pull Over ... Ask for Directions' on Iraq?

Feb. 4, 2007 — -- A roundup of the late-night comics.

Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del.: I just spoke to Barack today.
Jon Stewart: I bet you did.

Jay Leno: Is anybody surprised that Hillary is running for president? I'm not surprised. I mean, if you're married to Bill Clinton -- women, wouldn't you want to tap his phone, read his mail and torture him to find out?

Leno: Oh, earlier today, President Bush spoke at the 55th annual National Prayer Breakfast. President Bush said that he has prayed every single day since he took office. Hey, you're not the only one. Join the club.

Conan O'Brien: Former Clinton adviser Dick Morris said, and this is a quote, he just said this -- "Hillary Clinton will be the next president, but she'll be the worst president we've ever seen." That's what he said, yeah. After hearing this, President Bush said, "Wait a minute, I'm not finished yet."

Stewart: In Iowa yesterday, Hillary Clinton was shoring up support a mere year before that state's presidential caucus. And she whipped the crowd into a frenzy with her new campaign slogan, "Let the conversation begin!" This might not be the most politically correct thing to say, but I don't think that slogan's going to help you with men. … You might as well get on your campaign bus. The "I think we really need to talk" express, to unveil your new Iraq policy: "America, let's pull over and just ask for directions."

Leno: Sen. Joe Biden announced he's running for president yesterday. And today, he was just running.
