Dim Jokes
From Thursday’s late nite shows, via NewsMax:
Leno:
The stock market was up 400 points today, or as the Democrats call it - terrible news.
Barack Obama said again today that he wants to raise taxes on the rich - that's provided by November anyone is still rich.
That seems to be the theme: In a speech today, Joe Biden said that paying higher taxes is patriotic. The Republican strategy on Joe Biden? Let him keep talking.
The Democratic-controlled Congress said they are going to adjourn for the rest of the year. They said regarding the financial crisis, no one knows what to do. Well, that's a ringing endorsement to re-elect them - "You're on your own! We're leaving."
Kimmel:
The government had to bail out two huge companies, and today they strongly hinted that they'd bail out others . . . at taxpayers' expense of course. It's all part of a new approach that leaders in the White House and Congress are taking - it's called socialism.
