“President Obama told Americans not to worry about the radiation from Japan — as he left for South America.” – Jay Leno

“We will always find a way to make this about us. Even though there’s really no chance of anybody getting any negligible amount of radiation, Americans on the West Coast are desperately buying up and hoarding iodine pills.
