By OhMyGov! Oct 24 2009, 12:03 PM

9. "This is a disturbing trend: celebrity death hoaxes on Twitter. Yesterday Kanye West was rumored to be killed in a car accident. Today, Kanye, announced that he's not dead. He just wishes he was." --Jimmy Kimmel

8. "Yesterday, President Obama was in New Orleans. A little boy asked President Obama, 'Why do people hate you?' Then the little boy turned to Joe Biden and said, 'I know why people hate you.'" --Conan O'Brien

7. "And according to USA Today, car thefts are now at a 20-year low. Well, sure, it's hard to steal a car when the owner's living in it." -Jay Leno

6. "The Dow hit 10,000 this week, everybody! For the first time since the market collapse. And people were so excited, they took to the streets to celebrate, which is easy because so many of them live there." --Bill Maher

5. "I don't know if you saw it Friday. That whole -- people thought the 6-year-old kid was in the balloon. I mean, it was so tense, Maria Shriver put down her cell phone while driving, picked up her Sony TV Watchman to watch." --Jay Leno

4. "President Obama announced he wants to give every senior citizen $250 next year. This is part of his 'Cash for Geezers' program...Actually, if you're a senior citizen working on Wall Street, then you get $250 million." --Jay Leno

3. "And the Post Office may cancel Saturday delivery of the mail. Do you know about this? See, for young people before texting and twittering, you used to send pieces of paper to each other." --Jay Leno

2. "Olympia Snowe's vote was hailed as a victory for bipartisanship. So now you only need one Republican to be bipartisan? Those are pretty low standards. That's like saying you're bilingual if you say 'Hola' to the nanny." --Seth Meyers

1. "Yesterday in Louisiana, a judge denied an interracial couple a marriage license because he felt, I quote, their children would later suffer in life from being interracial. Like when they become president or win the Masters or get an Oscar."  --Jay Leno
