This year, both Groundhog Day and the State of the Union Address fall on the same day. As Air America Radio pointed out:

=

A rabbi is on a plane with a Korean guy sitting beside him. After a couple of hours, the rabbi leans over to the guy and says, condescendingly, "You know, I've never forgiven you Chinese for what you did at Pearl Harbor." The Korean guy looks up and replies, "What are you talking about?! It was the Japanese who bombed Pearl Harbor. It wasn't the Chinese. And besides, I'm neither Chinese nor Japanese, I'm Korean!" The rabbi says, "Korean, Japanese, Chinese, what's the difference?"

=

A while later, after a brief nap, a banana, soup, a pie, a pale ale, and a wine, the audacious, tipsy, obese Korean leans over to the sleepy rabbi and says, "Ah, ahem...you know, I've never forgiven you Jews for sinking the Titanic." The rabbi looks perturbed and says, icily, "Oh, pooh! What do you mean?! The Jews didn't do any such thing! An enormous iceberg sank the Titanic, you abhorrent jerk!" The Korean shushes him and replies, "Iceberg, Rosenberg, Weinberg, so what's the difference?"

=

Leno mainly scoffs at the idiot. Behold! Consider one such fun jab: "Savvy former Pres. Garfield could write French with one hand and Greek with the other, both at the same time! When that ninny Bush learns about this, he says, 'Jesus! A shocking concept! We once had a talking cat for president?'"
