Christie." –Jay Leno

Larry Hagman. … The original "Dallas" series started in 1978. Back

those dark days are over." –Craig Ferguson

"Team Romney is misspelling words all over the map. They
misspelled America, they misspelled the word official, they misspelled Reagan…I
think we are going to find out that Mitt is actually dyslexic and his name is
Tim." –Bill Maher

country music fan, a Mormon who doesn’t' drink or heat, or a black guy who's
skinny." –Bill Maher
"Obama had a big fundraiser for the gay and lesbian elite here in
Hollywood. He was introduced by Ellen and did a really dirty joke. Michelle
Obama had gone Ellen's show and had a push-up contest with Ellen and won it.

who's the potty mouth here, Mr. President? You can take my million, but don't
f**k with my act." –Bill Maher
"The effort to recall Gov. Scott Walker in Wisconsin failed.
This is the worst thing to happen to organized labor in America since the invention
of Mexicans." –Bill Maher

Scott said, 'Hey, we just want to remove people in Florida who are either felons,
deceased, or here illegally.' Which in Florida leaves only 12 people."
–Bill Maher
