“Toyota says they’re standing beside their vehicles — because that’s the only safe place to stand.” – Jimmy Kimmel

“And I love this. Radio host Rush Limbaugh says he will leave the United States if health care reform passes. Well, if that doesn’t get the Democrats to rally, nothing will.” – Jay Leno

“Rush Limbaugh says if the healthcare bill passes, he will leave the country. The Democrats are upset, because if they knew that, they would have passed the bill years ago.” – Craig Ferguson

“The White House unveiled its official eggs for the 2010 Easter Egg Roll on April 5. The official eggs come in purple, pink, green and, why are we talking about Easter eggs instead of health care?” – Jimmy Fallon

“On ‘The Early Show’ tomorrow morning, Harry Smith will receive the first live TV colonoscopy. CBS is very excited; they’re already planning the spinoff show, ‘How I Met Your Rectum.'” – Craig Ferguson

“The network hopes that the live colonoscopy will get good ratings, so to boost their chances, the procedure will be performed by the cast of ‘CSI.'” – Craig Ferguson

“President Obama has signed a bill to increase tourism to the United States. Tourism is way down, which is surprising. You’d think people from foreign countries would want to come here to see where their American jobs originated.” – Jay Leno

“Democratic Majority Leader Harry Reid is in trouble again for saying it’s really good news that America only lost 36,000 jobs in February. Well, think how happy he’ll be when November comes and he loses his job.” – Jay Leno

“Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad now says that 9/11, the attacks on the United States on 9/11, were fabricated. Like his re-election.” – David Letterman
