Give Conan his job and then watch those ratings climb. Leno is aswome! Wish Conan would have had more luck, but things just did not work out as planned.

You misspelled "extremist", "believe", and used the word "is" twice in a row by mistake. You also missed a few punctuation marks. Both you clowns could be on Leno's Headlines. For the record I think Leno is lame and about as funny as a heart attack. Dear Robert Hinman,

Do you really believe hollywood stars and talk show hosts have opinions on the economy, the president, the previous president, movies, musicians, authors, books, politicians, and cultural/moral/ethical issues better than those you could form yourself through your own research? What's that? You say it's really all about the humor, the entertainment. You mean you enjoy all those constant, vicious, desperate attempts to sway your political ideas just because they are served up under loads of clever whit by wannabe social puppet masters with fast minds but little real integrity. Your egos are really so starved and weak that you find it necessary to join in the endless feast of mockery and degredation of others? Is it possible all you people are really slaves to these phony culture pimps!? I mean I know celebs are charismatic, witty and often easy to look at and listen to, but you know the difference between good and bad, right? Oh, wait a minute... I get it now. Sorry, for a second I thought this was a place where honest *thinking* people gathered. Didn't realize I'd stumbled upon a bunch of herd animals. Shouldn't be too surprised I guess, your kind is everywhere nowadays. Your are in the majority, by a long shot. Quanity over quality, Whoot, Whoot! My mistake, sorry. Really, I understand and have sympathy for your situation. Not your fault the school systems turned to crap, that teachers lost the ability to enforce learning through discipline as well as the concept of academic standards. Probably more than half of you are the products of broken families. Sometimes I forget how jaded and debased the mainstream has become. Without strong, responsible families to grow up in, your morals and sense of responsibility went out the window. Because you were kids and wanted to fit in, you bought all the BS fed to you about there being nothing really wrong with abortions, i.e. killing babies that are still inside their mothers (by far mostly teen mothers, I should add) for the simple reason that you wanted to wallow in irresponsible sex and thereby gain the admiration and acceptance of your peers (who, of course, were also wallowing in irresponsible sex in order to gain your admiration. and without enough responsible, moral authority figures to look after you, you didn't stand a chance. you were just kids for cripes sake). Why you look the other way and ignore the explosion of sexual diseases and one-parent "families", because to face these issues head on like responsible grown-ups you would have to recognize and own up to the error of your ways. No, I can't blame you, not your fault the culture has devolved into a licentious morass of sluggish morals, stubborn ignorance, and lazy irresponsibility while you were growing up. Study too hard, get called a nerd. Don't have sex get called a prude. Or gay. That's one of the biggest whips they use to keep you in line right? Don't laugh at their jokes, or don't fool around enough, then you are a humorless homosexual or lesbian. Isn't that how it works? They molded you until you fit their revolutionary new social image, until you were programmed to guzzle down the swill of Letterman, Leno, Conan, Craig, etc. and like it. You became expert at ignoring the foul taste, all the canned laughter and force of numbers made it so much easier. You just went with the flow, yes? Some of you revolted at being force-fed crap like this at first, but most jumped in line pretty quick when the culture police (your surrogate self-appointed authority figures, replacements for the repsponsible parents you never had) came knocking.

I mean, lame Bush-Cheney jokes? I wondered if I was watching a re-run or a rehearsal. Obviously, Jay's appeal is to make a show that people feel "comfortable" watching but if a show with no edginess or sharpness is what NBC wanted, I have to wonder what the target market it; I assume it's tired people who want to fall asleep sometime between the monologue and the second guest. If this is represnentative of the new Tonight show, Letterman has nothing to worry about. Not that he's ever worried about Jay. I like Jay, but his first show out of the box was so weak and surprisingly dated. I mean, lame Bush-Cheney jokes? I wondered if I was watching a re-run or a rehearsal.

I have never wasted my time on Letterman and as far as that goes on Leno either. In most cases it's nothing but party line Humor from the Communist or so called Democrats. So I suppose if your do stupid you can't think for yourself you should watch one of the Communist Net Works, ABC, NBC or CBS. Me I watch the Sattelite and Fox News, the only Fair and Ballanced News on the air.No Communist for me. It's bad enough we have a president that surounds himself with those who think Communism is the greatest thing ever invented. So long Comrades.

However, I agree with many of the comments posted. He is way over the top with his political bashing and way to left of center the last couple of years. The bashing was funny at first but now the jokes are boring and predictable. He has become very arrogant and bitter. I do not think he will ever get over losing the tonight show and is very jealous of Jay's success.
