“Jenna stuck by her dad and became a liberal.”

LOL!! Good point. Probably pro-abortion like her mom, too.

I was under the impression that Jenna VOTED FOR OBAMA after the Larry King interview she did with her mom last year.

“Megan McCain seething in jealously,...”

I was indifferent as I read the article and comments, until I read your perspective. Now I am totally thrilled at Jenna’s opportunity and loving the indirect diss at Megan McCain.
Personally, I could never work or live around so many liberals, but I am more conservative than her Dad and she is even less so. Actually she seems pretty apolitical, which means when she decides on an issue will be emotion based i.e. liberal.

Ummm . . . I suppose you were in the booth with her.

I don’t know how she voted, and neither do you. If she, a 20-something, did indeed vote for Obama, then she was in the deluded majority.

At least she voted, which can’t be said for a lot of FReepers who sat at home and whined and, as far as I’m concerned, have no right to gripe.

There are really important things going on in this country right now. This thread is silly.

But maybe some comic relief is healthy.

I’m happy for Jenna and hope the new job works out well for her.

She declared her support for same-sex marriage just before her own wedding. I think she's going to express liberal views, and they will use her to humiliate conservatives.

Uninformed people who go into the voting booth just to "exercise their right" are doing the most harm to this nation.

The evidence is our most recent election.

Is he really pushing the Bush and Palin jokes? Obama has given more material for comedians to use in 8 months than Bush did over 8 years.

Fallon has absolutely ZERO conversational skills...that is his main problem. They all need to get off the safe wagon of not making fun of Obama.

Uh yeah...what happened to the blonde highlites? I used to have a big crush on her...maybe she is doing what all women at NBC do...become ugly and unattractive on purpose so they appeal to their ugly and unattractive liberal audiences. Most liberal women are skanks.

Yes, the first joke was something along the lines of how Obama took 5 books to read on his vacation. They were all difficult novels, how intelligent he is. Bush took five books, but four of them were copies of “Good Night Moon.”

Yeah, I know, du-du-dum....(rolls eyes)

The second ‘joke’ was something about how a woman was yelling at Sen. McCain at a Town Hall meeting. Too bad Sarah Palin hasn’t gotten over the election. Then he proceeds to do his Palin impersonation with weird fake glasses and his sidekick tried to improve the joke by saying “then she quits.” Hardy har har har -

The audience barely managed a chuckle. It was pathetic. If they are still dragging out years-old Bush and Palin jokes, well then, maybe he shouldn’t be host of The Tonight Show. I turned it off shortly thereafter and don’t plan on turning it back on.

Absolutely.

One responsibility of freedom is to keep oneself informed. I’ve never been a proponent of “just get out and vote.”

However, I also respect those who, misguided as I may think they are, vote differently than I do. That’s democracy.

Many good people voted for Obama. Sad, but true. They believed his lies.

NBC is desperate to boost their ratings. After all the years of catering to the Libs and losing ratings, they are trying this to bring a few alienated Moderates aboard.

Is that the official NBC photo? It’s the worst pic I’ve ever seen of Jenna, she is so much prettier.
