"Yesterday Senator
Hillary Clinton went after Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, really went
after him. She said he had a bad track record, and she asked him why she should
trust him. Get the feeling maybe she's been burned by a guy before." --Jay
Leno
"Normally, President
Bush would take six weeks off. This time he's only taking eleven days because
the White House says he has too many things to do, like he's out campaigning
for other Republicans, raising money. And today all the Republicans up for
re-election said: 'Take the six weeks. We're okay. We got it. We're covered.
Thank you. We're fine.'" --Jay Leno
"Remember America, we
started with an armed conflict. It's called the Revolutionary War, not the
Revolutionary let's all sit down and talk about our feelings. So I'm surprised
to hear the military can't find enough new recruits even after increasing the
maximum recruitment age to 41. I don't get it. Why aren't ageing baby boomers
jumping at the chance for an exciting second career? They've even lowered the
physical requirement. For a 17 year-old soldier the requirements are 47 sit-ups
and 35 push-ups but for a 41 year-old it's a tough but fair 29 sit-ups and 24
push-ups. And eventually when they start recruiting retirees, say by March
2007, elderly troops will qualify with two stand-ups, five thumbs-ups, and a
2-minute complaint about the salad dressing selection at Bennigans."
--Stephen Colbert
