Laugh the FISA Away



It's either laugh or cry while we wait for the FISA amendments Senate vote to begin.

And I choose laughter.

Jay Leno analyzes Obama's recent plane troubles.

JAY LENO: “Hey, big scare today for Barack Obama. His airplane had to make an unscheduled landing because of mechanical problems. While the pilot was steering to the left, the plane was apparently drifting to the right.

[Laughter ]

… Nobody could really quite figure out what was HAPPENING!

[Applause]

… Obama's wife, Michelle -- pretty distraught when she first heard the news that his plane had problems. Although, not nearly as distraught as Hillary Clinton when she heard everything was OK.”
