Jay Leno Slaps Congress

In his opening monologue Tonight Show host Jay Leno slaps Congress and voices what a lot of Americans are thinking:

"What a crowd! You sound like Congress going on its five-week vacation.

"Congress went on a five-week vacation, starting today. Boy, do they deserve it!

"They got so much done this year, solved the energy crisis, health care, Social Security, immigration....Take a break, fellas.

"Have you noticed Congress doesn't even call it a 'vacation.' They call it a 'recess.'

"How come the only ones who get recess are Congress, kindergartners and juries? The three groups you can't trust to make an adult decision."

So true.
