And President Bush wasn’t allowed to see any movie rated PG-13.” – Jimmy Fallon

“Today happens to be Friday the 13th. In fact, this is the third Friday the 13th of 2009 already. I blame Obama for that. We never had three Friday the 13ths under President Bush.” – Jimmy Kimmel

“We’re learning more and more details about the confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.

“Did you hear this? Germany will send 120 soldiers to northern Afghanistan to help fight the Taliban. And out of habit, France surrendered.” –Jimmy Fallon
