“New York City police went into Zuccotti Park in a midnight raid, and the mayor rode in on his pet Chihuahua. … No more sleeping or no camping in New York City parks. Hooker, crack dealers, not a problem.” – David Letterman

“Police in New York City cleared Zuccotti Park of the Occupy Wall Street protesters. Why don’t we let them occupy basketball arenas around the countries. We’re not using them.” – Jay Leno

“Cain’s only real foreign policy experience is from when he ran the National Restaurant Association and had to deal with the manager from the International House of Pancakes.” – Jay Leno

“President Obama is in Australia. When he’s in Australia, his approval ratings go down the toilet in a counter-clockwise motion.” – Craig Ferguson

“Last week President Obama was in Hawaii. Now he’s in Australia. Next week he’s in Indonesia. I think he watched the Republican debates and went, ‘This is going to be a piece of cake,’ and went on vacation” – Craig Ferguson
