a half million dollars and a brand new Hummer (not the toy)

"Al Gore won the Nobel prize for his work on global warming.

Here's what he gets for the Nobel prize: one and a half million

dollars and a brand new Hummer." --David Letterman

"The people who are really getting tough with the Middle

East are the House Foreign Relations Committee. Those

motherf------ are not kidding around. They voted yesterday

to condemn, as an act of genocide, the killings of Armenians

in Turkey in 1915. See, this is exactly why the voters gave

control to the Democrats. They send a stern message

to the Ottoman Empire." --Bill Maher

"This week, the presidential race continued to tighten up.

In fact, according to the latest polls, John McCain is now

only six points behind Sarah Palin." --Amy Poehler

"Following a John Kerry speech this Monday at the

University of Florida, a student asked too many

questions, forcing security to provide him with

the answers [on screen: video of the tasering].

Of course the mainstream media was horrified.

Personally, I don't see what the big deal is about

being tasered. It can't be worse than when I wash

my hair and blow dry it at the same time."

--Stephen Colbert

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

and Orwell’s 1984.”

 

That is not a typo. That is the numeral one (Bush is probably thinking in higher math again)

"As the war in Iraq grinds on, we can take at least one comfort as the president reiterated recently -- we are not alone [on screen: Bush saying, 'The success of a free Iraq matters to every civilized nation. We thank the 36 nations who have troops on the ground in Iraq']. 36 nations ... a fact not at all diminished by the fact that it's actually 25 nations. You can see it's a very common mistake. 36 is six squared, whereas 25 is five squared. Knowing our commander-in-chief, he's probably thinking in higher math again. You should hear how impressive our coalition sounds in base two." --Jon Stewart

"Anyway, who's still in our coalition? Let's take a look. Romania, they've got 500 people there. That's enough to fill a movie theatre. Many of the Romanians, of course, are vampires. Armenians have got 46 soldiers, that's enough for one of them Atlantic City buses. One of the few places, by the way, more depressing than Iraq. And then there's Iceland. They're counted in the coalition as much as the United States is, and they've got enough people to fill a suit. That is not a typo. That is the numeral one. And she wasn't a troop. And she just left." --Jon Stewart

The Dalai Lama just doesn't want to get shot by Cheney (stern message to the Ottoman Empire)

"The people who are really getting tough with the Middle East is the House Foreign Relations Committee. Those motherf------ are not kidding around. They voted yesterday to condemn, as an act of genocide, the killings of Armenians in Turkey in 1915. See, this is exactly why the voters gave control to the Democrats. They send a stern message to the Ottoman Empire." --Bill Maher

"On the peaceful side of the equation, the Dalai Lama is coming to the United States next week. He's going to get the Congressional Medal of Honor, meet with President Bush. He is going to, of course, be wearing his famous flowing orange robes. Nothing religious about that, he just doesn't want to get shot by Cheney." --Bill Maher
