From Denny: Here's our weekly roundup of the late night shows' comedy from ABC's This Week with George Stephanopoulos

The Tonight Show

Conan O'Brien:
A lot of us are still mourning the loss of one of America's most entertaining figures who left us all too soon. But don't worry, folks, Sarah Palin will be back.

Late Show

David Letterman:
We had a big computer attack, they don't know what happened. They shut down the U.S. Treasury Department Web site. Man! That's scary. I was stunned. I said, U.S. still has a Treasury Department?

The Tonight Show

Conan O'Brien:
President Obama had a historic meeting with Pope Benedict XVI. Isn't that great? They came together, yeah. Or, as Fox News is reporting it, Obama caught up with old man in dress.

Late Show

David Letterman:
Anybody go to the harbor today to see the Statue of Liberty? It's taken the town by storm, the waders, take a look there (an image shown of Statue of Liberty wearing Sarah Palin's waders).

The Tonight Show

Conan O'Brien:
The newly appointed CEO of General Motors said that the company will now build cars that Americans want. After hearing it, GM employees said, "You can tell this guy's new around here."

Video: The Crown of Liberty

From Denny: This is a really good video on the updates to and the history of visiting the Statue of Liberty AND you get an inside view from the top looking out over the harbor - best video I've seen on the recent renovation project. It's nice to see we have an administration who promotes freedom instead of fear by reopening the Statue of Liberty and other federal buildings like the White House to the viewing from the public!

This Weeks Roundup of Sunday Funnies: "Sicko" (Cinco) de Mayo, New Dem Senator



The Tonight Show

Jay Leno:
See all those people on the news walking around wearing those surgical masks, huh? Suddenly Michael Jackson not so crazy, huh?

The Colbert Report

Steven Colbert:
President Obama got exactly the gift he wanted, an adorable new senator [former Republican Sen. Arlen Specter]. I just hope he is housebroken.

The Late Late Show

Craig Ferguson:
[Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad complained President Obama hasn't been returning his messages. No offense, Mahmoud, but maybe he's just not that into you.

The Colbert Report

Steven Colbert:
Republican Sen. Arlen Specter has contracted donkey flu. Folks, this disease is now officially out of control. Back in 2004 we thought we had it contained to the coasts and the cities, but then it mutated and tore through the country.

Note from Denny: For the folks outside of America so you don't miss out on the inside America joke: donkey flu is a code phrase for changing your political party affliation to the Democratic Party.

The Tonight Show

Jay Leno:
Biden isn't speaking out so much lately. Today, President Obama took some action. Did you see them together? Take a look. Duct tape. Look.

Jimmy Kimmel Live

Jimmy Kimmel:
We have the first president ever who knows how to use Facebook, but his staff can't use Photoshop. Here it is, here is Air Force One and the Statue of Liberty, and look what else we can do. We can see President Obama walking on the wing.
