"Last week at
Germany's University of Regensburg, which as you know is a safety school, Pope
Benedict gave an address in which he discussed Islam's concept of jihad by
quoting 14th century Byzantine emperor Manuel Paleologos II. You know if you're
going to make a wholesale generalization, say it in German. It gives it that
extra 'oomph.'" --Jon Stewart
"Muslims all over the
world are rioting because they are upset with the Pope. Again, I don't think
President Bush understands these issues. Like today, he said, 'These Muslims,
why can't they ask themselves what would Jesus do?'" --Jay Leno
"It's that time of
year again. The streets of New York are crawling with world leaders who have
come to address the General Assembly for the 61st annual United Nations open
mic night. Then came the headliner, George W. Bush. A killer set except some
idiots out there didn't shut off their cell phones. Turns out it was the Thai
delegation, talking and texting. Evidently in the middle of the president's
speech, their country had a military coup. Fine, but put it on vibrate."
--Stephen Colbert
