BUSH STILL BIGGEST JOKE ON LATE NIGHT TV

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Wireless Flash) -- George W. Bush may be tied with Al Gore in the polls but he's far ahead in the joke count. According to the Center For Media And Public Affairs, Bush has been the butt of more jokes by Jay Leno, David Letterman and other late night comedians than Gore. In the last year, Bush has inspired 465 jokes compared to Gore's 322 -- a 44 percent difference. In addition, Bush's VP nominee, Dick Cheney, has inspired 106 jokes while Joseph Lieberman has been the butt of only 41 gags. Although Bush is a popular target for comics, he's still far behind Bill Clinton, who has inspired 590 jokes since January.
