Recent late-night political jokes, from Daniel Kurtzman's Political Humor Blog on About.com.
      President Obama is on a bus tour to talk about jobs, and it turns out 
      the bus was made in Canada. If he were a real American that bus would 
      have been made in China. USA! USA!

      Obama said the housing market may not pick up again for another year or 
      longer. On the bright side, President Obama now has nine people 
      interested in his house.
-Conan O'Brien
    
      Michele Bachmann said that when she is president, gas prices will come 
      down to less than $2 a gallon. When asked how she'll make that happen, 
      she said she'll hunt down the CEO of Exxon and stare at him.

      A new survey has Rick Perry ahead of Mitt Romney by 11 points, and 
      Michele Bachmann is five points behind him. I think it's going to come 
      down to who wears the most flag pins.
-Jimmy Kimmel
    
      Perry is an attractive candidate for many conservatives, because he 
      wants smaller government, to cut national spending, and he knows how to 
      fire a grenade launcher. He's like the Sarah Palin of politics.
-Jimmy 
      Kimmel
    
      Rick Perry was once a Democrat. Just once, in college. He was 
      experimenting.
-Jimmy Kimmel
    
      Donald Trump may be running for president, and why not? He's got that 
      everyman quality that we can all relate to.
-Jimmy Kimmel
    
      Rick Perry is now the front runner. Of course they're letting him run in 
      front. Because he's the one with the gun.
-Stephen Colbert
    
      There is no coordination between Colbert Super PAC and the Perry 
      campaign; that would be wrong and illegal. They are as separate as 
      church and state under a Perry Administration.
-Stephen Colbert
    
      It's never enough for the media. They're like children: 'Mom, can I get 
      a Paul Ryan?' 'I just got you a Rick Perry! And you already broke your 
      Michele Bachmann. And before I get you anything else, where the f**k is 
      your Ron Paul?'
-Jon Stewart
    
      Mitt Romney said he was in Iowa when he was actually in New Hampshire. 
      He explained, 'I accidentally mixed up my sea of white people.'
-Conan 
      O'Brien
    
      The White House sent Vice President Joe Biden to China today. So now we 
      owe them a trillion dollars AND an apology.
-Conan O'Brien
    
      Newt Gingrich, who came in eighth place in the Iowa Straw Poll, said 
      he's 'not dead yet.' Then he was invited on 'Dancing With the Stars,' 
      and he said, 'OK, now I'm dead.'
-Conan O'Brien
    
      A study showed that every hour of TV you watch after the age of 25 
      shortens your life by 22 minutes. That doesn't sound too bad to me. 
      You'd probably watch TV with that 22 minutes anyway.
-Jimmy Kimmel
    
      President Obama is touring the country in a bus, because nothing 
      inspires hope in the economy like the president riding in a bus.
-Jimmy 
      Kimmel
    
      Republican front-runner Mitt Romney is mocking Obama's bus caravan, 
      calling it The Magical Misery Tour, which is sort of funny coming from 
      the President of the Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hair Club for Men.
-Jimmy 
      Kimmel
    
      President Obama's new slogan is: 'I Thought We Could, but It Turns Out 
      the Other Guys Are Assholes.'
-Jon Stewart
    
      Michele Bachmann won the Iowa Straw Poll. She said she hasn't been this 
      excited since she won last year's 'Who's Crazier Than Sarah Palin' 
      contest.'
-Conan O'Brien
    
      Tim Pawlenty announced that he's dropping out of the race for president. 
      Pawlenty said he wants to spend more time with his family because even 
      they don't know who he is.
-Conan O'Brien
    
      Canada imposed a ban on trade with North Korea. No more hockey highlight 
      DVDs for Kim Jong Il.
-Conan O'Brien
    
      The NYPD created a new unit that will use social media sites to catch 
      criminals. Criminal caught on Facebook and Twitter will be arrested, 
      while criminals caught on MySpace will be told about Facebook.
-Conan 
      O'Brien
    
      Michelle Bachmann paid $30 each for 6,000 voting tickets in Iowa and got 
      4,800 votes, so 1,200 people stole her $30. It's funny that someone who 
      doesn't believe in government handouts paid 6,000 people to vote for her.
-Jimmy 
      Kimmel
    
      Tim Pawlenty dropped out of the race for president, saying he wants to 
      spend more time lacking charisma with his family.
-Jimmy Kimmel
    
      Now that Pawlenty is out, the big question is whether Bachmann or Perry 
      will get his supporter.
-Stephen Colbert
    
      In Iowa in her tent Michele Bachmann had Randy Travis and a petting zoo. 
      Of course you were only allowed to pet animals of the opposite sex.
-Stephen 
      Colbert
    
      Michele Bachmann's victory in the straw poll may have had something to 
      do with her helping her supporters pay for their $30 voting ticket- by 
      paying for their voting ticket. Bachmann paid $180,000 to hand out 6,000 
      tickets, and she got 4,800 votes. She got a commanding 80% of the votes 
      she paid for. I think this proves she can win if she can get 50 million 
      voters into a field, fill them with barbecue and let their children pet 
      Randy Travis.
-Stephen Colbert
    
      He's not George Bush on steroids. Rick Perry is what happens if Lex 
      Luther distilled down George Bush essence in a laboratory and crossed it 
      with gun powder and semen from the finest thoroughbred in Lubbock, and 
      then strapped that concoction onto a nuclear missile and shot it into 
      the f*cking sun! And then, waited, waited, waited, until one day, on the 
      anniversarry of the Alamo, a solar flare, yada yada yada, Rick Perry!
-Jon 
      Stewart
    
      If all of Jon Huntsman's supporters met at the Ames, Iowa Quiznos, the 
      fire marshal would say, 'yeah, that's fine, there are some more seats in 
      the back.'
-Jon Stewart
    
      Michele Bachmann was asked if she was a submissive wife. She said no, 
      but her husband is.
-Jay Leno
    
      President Obama will begin a three-state bus tour. I believe the three 
      states are confusion, delusion, and desperation.
-Jay Leno
    
      The Republicans had their big debate in Iowa. You know who the winner 
      was? Anyone that didn't watch.
-Jay Leno
    
      Newt Gingrich made a surprise announcement. He's still in the race.
-Jay 
      Leno
    
      It's the 76th anniversary of Social Security. I mention it because 
      there's no guarantee that there will be a 77th.
-Jay Leno
    
      General Mills is releasing new lip balms that taste like Cinnamon Toast 
      Crunch, Cocoa Puffs and Lucky Charms. Or as Joe Biden put it: 'Nice. 
      They should make one for Lucky Nuts.'
-Jay Leno
    
      A new survey revealed that being an IT guy is the most hated job in the 
      country. Or as President Obama put it, 'Wanna bet?'
-Jimmy Fallon
    
      The federal government has a new plan that will let people send texts to 
      911. Yeah, it's a little frustrating when you try to text 'Burglar! 
      Please hurry!,' and it auto-corrects to 'Burger, please. Hungry.'
-Jimmy 
      Fallon
    
      Some political analysts are saying that President Obama is making many 
      of the same mistakes that President Bush made. Obama said, 'That's 
      ridiculous, and if you'll excuse me, 'Spongebob' is on.'
-Conan 
      O'Brien
    
      Nancy Pelosi has named the final members of the committee charged with 
      reducing the debt. Unfortunately, the committee includes MC Hammer, 
      Willie Nelson, and Nicholas Cage.
-Conan O'Brien
    
      President Obama took campaign workers out for burgers yesterday and left 
      a 35 percent tip. Man, that guy is so generous with China's money.
-Jimmy 
      Fallon
    
      After all the rioting in London this week, officials are worried that it 
      could mean security problems for the Olympics next year. On the bright 
      side, the guy running with the torch will just blend right in.
-Jimmy 
      Fallon
    
      During a call with investors, Rupert Murdoch said that News Corp made 
      $2.7 billion last year. Murdoch said if investors had any questions, 
      they should contact him by leaving a message on their own voicemails.
-Jimmy 
      Fallon
    
      Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman are both Mormon. One of these guys could be 
      our next president. The other one is Jon Huntsman.
-Stephen Colbert
    
      We need God's forgiveness- or at least China's.
-Stephen Colbert
    
      It has been a crazy week for stocks. First down, then up, then down, and 
      today they are up again. It's like trying to follow Gary Busey when he's 
      off his meds.
-Jay Leno
