JAY LENO’S MONOLOGUE HIGHLIGHTS WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13, 2011

PRESIDENT OBAMA INTRODUCED HIS NEW DEFICIT REDUCTION PLAN TO AMERICA.  THE PRESIDENT SAYS HE WANTS TO RAISE TAXES ON THE RICHEST AMERICANS. YOU THOUGHT DONALD TRUMP HATED HIM OBAMA BEFORE.

ONE PART OF PRESIDENT OBAMA’S PLAN I THOUGHT WAS VERY INTERESTING; HE’S CALLING ON ALL AMERICANS TO HAVE MORE GRANDCHILDREN.  BECAUSE THE MORE OF THEM THERE ARE THE EASIER

IT WILL BE FOR THEM TO PAYOFF OUR $14 TRILLION DEBT.

I HAD A ROUGH COMMUTE COMING IN THIS MORNING. I'M SITTING AT A STOPLIGHT AND I GOT REAR-ENDED BY AN AIR FRANCE JUMBO JET.  IT JUST SPUN ME AROUND.

WELL FOLKS, THIS JUST IN; THIS JUST HAPPENED A FEW MINUTES AGO.  A FEDERAL JURY FOUND BARRY BONDS GUILTY ON ONE COUNT.  BARRY BONDS GUILTY ON ONE COUNT AND COULD SERVE 21 MONTHS IN PRISON.  SO THAT SHOULD BE A LESSON…IF YOU’RE A CELEBRITY AND YOU USE DRUGS, AND YOU WANT TO AVOID PRISON, YOU BETTER BE CHARLIE SHEEN.  YOU BETTER BE CHARLIE SHEEN.

THE CLOTHING STORE J. CREW IS CAUSING SOME CONTROVERSY BECAUSE OF AN AD IN THEIR CATALOGUE SHOWING A YOUNG BOY WEARING PINK NAIL POLISH. BUT TO BE FAIR, I GUESS THE KID ALREADY HAD A FEW DRINKS AT APPLEBEE'S BEFORE ANY OF THIS HAPPENED.

THAT ANOTHER HUGE STORY; AN APPLEBEE’S RESTAURANT IN MICHIGAN IS BEING INVESTIGATED AFTER THEY SERVED ALCOHOL TO A 15 MONTH OLD BABY.  THEY SERVED THE KID A MARGARITA.  I CAN SEE A BARTENDER MIXING UP A DRINK.  IT GETS BUSY…  IF YOU’RE ROLLING SIPPY CUP IN MARGARITA SALT, THAT’S GOT TO SEND UP A RED FLAG.  DOESN’T IT?

BURGER KING IS COMING OUT WITH A NEW VERSION OF THE WHOPPER CALLED THE “MEAT MONSTER.”  IT CONTAINS TWO GROUND BEEF PATTIES, TWO SLICES OF CHEESE, THREE STRIPS OF BACON, AND A CHICKEN BREAST.  THEIR GOAL?  TO WIPEOUT EVERY SINGLE ANIMAL WITH ONE SANDWICH.
