Oh, and my dad said the other day that he thinks Jon Stewart needs to retire now because the only jokes he's been able to make have been about rainbows and celestial choirs and stuff. I mean, it could never be as good as it's been the last 8 years, could it?
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Maybe not as good. But as long as Michelle Bachman is in the House of Representatives, Jon Stewart will have material.

She is very foamy, isn't she? (I was just thinking the same thing but since I'd posted, like, 3 times in 5 minutes, I decided to let it go.)

Jon Stewart still has Biden, he's not as good as Palin, but he says the darnest things.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I just read this interview with a Comedy Central writer (among others) about this very issue: Can We Laugh? Yes, We Can

Also, a Conan writer had this to say:
Q. In the immediate aftermath of the election, how do you make fun of a unifying moment like that?
A. In the short term, you certainly can do jokes in the great American tradition of kicking losers when they’re down. There’s this company that called us up and said: “You know what? We have 5,000 McCain dolls. We don’t want them. Do you?” They’re being delivered here, and we’re trying to think of creative ways to destroy them. Like maybe a Viking funeral on the Hudson River.

Rahm alone is comedy gold, so I don't think they'll be lacking in material.
