That's the one I lost it on.

as did I, but the 'Dollar Bill' nickname and the corresponding incident did produce some pretty good chuckles over here.

[Petronski]

You've got to be kidding. Sheesh.

[Timeout]

Is that Richard Gere?!

[God luvs America]

I agree...he's got some really good lines.

[Txsleuth]

He got it right to---telling the President to get out of the way, when she takes on North Korea....I had tears from laughing during that one, too.

As funny as parts of that story are, Laura was a true trouper up there just now.

This was a great entertainment night for those of us with sub-stellar social lives

[OXENinFLA]

I am confused--did you or did you not like the Desperate Housewives bit?

Some of it was good, but there was a part where the audience didn't whether or are not to laugh.

When Laura said "They(the desperate housewives) can have him."

telling the President to get out of the way, when she takes on North Korea....

...here, hold my purse

[Carolinamom]

He's right about that crummy Press Room at the WH. It's due for renovations and not too soon.......although for my part, I'd like to see them all standing in the snow, rain, and dust outside to get them back for their snide questions.

[hole_n_one]

yes

[Mo1]

LOL .. The only time he is republican is come tax time

[CAluvdubya]

Cedric wasn't too bad. Most of it was funny.

Now he's got my attention....The President is cool for real!

[denydenydeny]

Cedric is very funny. The black suicide bomber routine and the White House "modifications" were funny bits.

[YaYa123]

yes...very funny, and clean too.

[Txsleuth]

I don't watch the show, so I have to guess what everyone laughs about, but I trust Laura so I went along with it---besides when she pulls Lynne Cheney into the act, it just gets better....

[maggief]

Did you catch Al Franken?

[since1868]

He was very respectful.
