Organize, Educate, Agitate (Way to go, Einstein)

"Hey, you guys, it's Friday the 13th. A lot of people are superstitious about the number 13. President Franklin Roosevelt refused to travel on the 13th of every month, would never host 13 guests at a dinner party, either. And President Bush wasn't allowed to see any movie rated PG-13." –Jimmy Fallon

I saw that one hundred years ago this month, Albert Einstein presented his theory of General Relativity, which explains how gravity works. And it also marks the last time someone actually meant it when they said, “Way to go, Einstein.” –Jimmy Fallon

“A magisterial collection. A combination of Bukowski’s Last Night of the Earth 

and Orwell’s 1984.” 

 

That's how anachronistic Joe Biden roles (Obama won't take his shotgun)

"Now, why is John McCain so afraid to let Sarah Palin face the press? What's the worst that could happen if you allow your vice presidential pick a little bit of rope? [on screen: Joe Biden saying that Franklin Roosevelt got on television when the stock market crashed and assured the nation]. One, Roosevelt wasn't president when the stock market crashed. And, two, no one had televisions. 

That's how anachronistic Joe Biden roles. I remember when Lincoln, during the Revolutionary War did a guest appearance on 'The View,' and told them the War of Spanish Aggression cannot stand. A little reckless, but it wasn't bad [on screen: Biden saying Obama won't take his shotgun, and if Obama 'starts to mess with my Beretta, he's got a problem]. 

One, the Beretta, I believe, is a handgun, not a shotgun. And, two -- and this may be more important -- you appear to possibly be threatening gun violence against your own running mate. I'd notify the Secret Service, but they're with you 24 hours a day." --Jon Stewart

someone had crossed out Iraq and written in Gay Dudes (Missed opportunity)

"I am angry about something else and it happens to be the subject of tonight's 'Word.' Missed opportunity. The administration really let this one slip through their hands [on screen: Like Osama]. Franklin Roosevelt famously said, 'We have nothing to fear, but fear itself' [on screen: Also Said 'Put The Japanese In Camps']. But these days, fear is the Bush administration's greatest ally [on screen: Only Ally]. And for the past several weeks, they've been doing a great job ratcheting up the national fear index [on screen: Currently At 'Holy Crap!']. In a September 5th press conference, the president mentioned bin Laden 17 times [on screen: Good For War On Terror Drinking Game]." --Stephen Colbert

"President Bush on Tuesday reluctantly released portions of the classified report that stated the war in Iraq is adding to the terrorist threat throughout the world. Though suspiciously in some portions of the report, someone had crossed out Iraq and written in, 'Gay dudes'." --Amy Poehler of Saturday Night Live

Good For War On Terror Drinking Game (shoe legacy)

"Last night after work I wanted to kick back and relax in front of the TV and then this interruption [on screen: Bush saying, 'Since the horror of 9/11, we have learned a great deal about the enemy. We have learned they are evil, and kill without mercy']. I don't want to say anything, but didn't we learn that on September 11th?" --Jon Stewart

"The President Bush’s speech was a performance that was as redundant as it was perfunctory. Clearly this president, even without a lead, is running out the clock. Say what you want about his presidency, but after that speech, it is now 15 minutes shorter." --Jon Stewart

When Roosevelt did it, no one said a word.

If I was Chris Christie and everyone was focused on my weight, I'd pick an even fatter running mate — someone huge, like 600 pounds. –Jimmy Kimmel

Donald Trump sued Univision today for $500 million, which everyone's making a big deal about, but what future president hasn't sued a TV network for pulling his beauty pageant off the air? When Roosevelt did it, no one said a word. –Jimmy Kimmel

I don't know if Rand Paul has to go to Colorado. If he wants money from stoners, he should just become a pizza delivery guy. –Jimmy Kimmel
