Seriously -- even the ones we don't like (Well guess what? Cash is also a substance)


"For those of you in Washington, you may have noticed a subtle difference this week in DC: the air -- a little crisper; food -- a little more tasty; homeless people -- weren't being discovered drained of blood. It could only mean one thing: Vice President Dick Cheney was out of town. The vice president was on a week-long world tour. Funny story about Cheney's trip. An electrical glitch grounded his usual plane, Air Force II, forcing him to fly on a C-17 dubbed -- and I'm not kidding -- 'The Spirit of Strom Thurmond.' As you know, 'The Spirit of Strom Thurmond' is a white plane, but guess which hanger it likes to park in when no one's watching? [on screen: a black hanger]. Trips like these are fraught with peril. A suicide bomber attempted to attack Cheney during his stay in Afghanistan. To the suicide bombers and the Taliban: stop trying to kill our people. Seriously -- even the ones we don't like." --Jon Stewart
"Experts say this presidential election will be the most expensive ever. The major party candidates might each spend $500 million. Now, the people in the I-don't-have-$500-million crowd say that's bad for America, making cash more important than substance. Well guess what? Cash is also a substance." --Stephen Colbert
