"The United States
Senate today took some steps to keep illegal immigrants out of our 'American
Idol' competitions. They voted to build a 370-mile long fence along the border
between the U.S. and Mexico. They also announced that they're going to hire
illegal immigrant workers to build it. The Senators voted overwhelmingly for
the fence. As I said, it is 370 miles long. Unfortunately, the actual border
with Mexico is more than 2,000 miles long. So, I guess the message is 'go
around.' Tentatively, they're calling it 'The Great Wall of Chimichanga.'"

"I'd like to talk to
you for a minute about Jesus. Have you taken him as your personal Lord and
Savior? No? Then you're probably not in politics. In recent years, religious
fundamentalists have evolved [on screen: John McCain]. I'm sorry --
intelligently designed themselves [on screen: Hillary Clinton] into a force to
be reckoned with [on screen: Rev. Pat Robertson]. How powerful are they? [on
screen: Howard Dean]. Powerful enough to make Howard Dean a temporary member of
the 700 Club, which, by the way, is the number of votes he got from
evangelicals when he ran for president. Well, he's on his knees, but I don't
think he's praying." --Lewis Black, on The Daily Show
