Jokes on the Debt Ceiling Limit Debate

Here were a couple of jokes in a Politico story that I found most amusing. The Leno joke though is probably pretty old.

"Democrats warned that if the debt ceiling isn't raised, the government would cease to function. How would you be able to tell?" said Jay Leno on NBC's "The Tonight Show." . . .

Conan O'Brien of the "Conan" show on TBS said, "The government is one week away from running out of money to pay its bills. So basically, our nation has become Nicolas Cage." . . .
