"President Obama is in the news. He's been criticized for only playing sports with other men. He's been taking some slack for that lately, so yesterday, he played golf with one of his top female advisers or as Fox News reported it, 'Obama plays a round with another woman.'" –Conan O'Brien

"Well, according to CBS News, President Obama has played more golf in nine months than George Bush in nearly three years. Actually, Obama's a good golfer. You know what his handicap is? Joe Biden." –Jay Leno

"And former Vice President Dick Cheney has accused the White House of 'dithering' over the strategy for the war in Afghanistan. Today, the White House said they're thinking it over, and they should have an answer for him in six to eight weeks." –Jay Leno

"It's getting nasty. Cheney said that when it comes to Afghanistan, Obama seems to be 'afraid.' Afraid? Isn't Cheney the one that was hiding in the underground bunker?" –Jay Leno

"An MSNBC anchor, Contessa Brewer, made an embarrassing mistake on the air last week. She called Jesse Jackson, 'Al Sharpton.' Even worse than that, after he told her, 'I'm Jesse Jackson,' she said, 'Are you the one that's between Jermaine and Tito?'"–Jay Leno

"The St. Louis Rams lost yesterday to the Indianapolis Colts. The Rams are now 0-7. In fact, they're so bad, the Rams called Rush Limbaugh collect and said, 'Make us an offer. Anything, please.'" –Jay Leno

"It's a great day for America, everybody. Yes, it is. It is our secretary of state's birthday. It is Hillary Clinton's birthday. Happy birthday, Hillary. President Obama asked her what she wanted, she said 'Your job.'" –Craig Ferguson

"Bill Clinton is planning a romantic candlelight dinner tonight. Then he'll go home and see Hillary." –Craig Ferguson

"Hey, guys, this is big news. President Obama just declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency. A couple of weeks ago, it was like, 'Calm down, it's going to be fine.' Now it's a national emergency. I'm telling you, swine flu is a big threat, then it's not, then it is. Make up your mind. This thing is like the Brett Favre of infectious diseases." –Jimmy "Fallon

Late Show with David Letterman

● The Yankees beat the Angels last night. What a celebration. After the game, the Yankees were so excited they doused each other with swine flu vaccine in the club house.

● The Yankees are going to face the Phillies, and they have one of those bets. If the Yankees win, the get a Philly cheesesteak. If the Phillies win, they get a dead Mob snitch.

● Donald Trump’s daughter, Ivanka, got married over the weekend. Trump’s a wealthy guy, so he hired Mayor Bloomberg to be the little guy on top of the cake.

● Bloomberg’s the only mayor who was a jockey.

The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson

● Happy birthday to Hillary Clinton. The president wished her happy birthday and asked her what she wanted, and she said, “Your job.”

● Bill Clinton is planning a romantic dinner . . . then he’ll go home and see Hillary.

● The movie "Paranormal Activity" is out. It’s movie where a couple puts a camcorder in their bedroom to film the things that go bump in the night . . . and also to see if anything happens with ghosts.

Late Night with Jimmy Fallon

● President Obama just declared the swine flu outbreak a national emergency. First the swine flu’s a big threat, then it’s not, then it is. Make up your mind. This thing’s like the Brett Favre of infectious diseases.

● The No. 1 movie at the box office this weekend was “Paranormal Activity.” It’s a low-budget horror film about a couple that sets up a camera in their bedroom at night. The horror comes when she keeps waking him up to talk about their relationship.

● A woman in Malaysia got free air travel for life after she gave birth during a flight. I don't know, I don’t think you should be rewarded for having a baby on a plane. You should be rewarded for sitting next to someone having a baby on a plane.

● In New York, a woman was charged with assault after spraying her cab driver with pepper spray. On the bright side, it was the closest thing the cabbie's had to a shower in months.
