“Anyway, when the pope arrived at the White House, he was given a 21-gun salute. That’s got to make Barack Obama a little uncomfortable. Guns and religion, you know, that kind of thing. Get a little bitter. I don’t know about that.” –Jay Leno

Tens for Bush and thousands for the Pope.” –Jay Leno

He will be at Yankee Stadium, saying Mass at the Yankee Stadium. That will be emotional. That will be his last Mass at the old stadium. That’ll be on Sunday. Then on Monday he’ll be performing in an exorcism at ‘The View.’ So he will have his work cut out for him there.” –David Letterman

God ‘probably going to call it a day’ as well
God, the Lord Creator of Heaven and Earth, has announced that in the wake of Pope Benedict’s resignation, He too is thinking about ‘calling time on the whole creation thing’.
In a press conference held before the heavenly host and selected journalists, God said that he felt Pope Benedict “had got the right idea about this divine rule gig” and that he was “probably going to wrap the whole thing up quite soon”.
Sources close to His Omnipotence say that the prospect of eternity has really being playing on his mind of late. ‘He’s been feeling his age over the last few millennia,’ said one heavenly observer holding a bunch of keys. ‘In fact, he’s never really got over the death of his son.’
Since the death of Jesus, God has taken a much diminished interest in human affairs with many commentators wondering if he is paying any attention at all.
