The real reason Jay Leno was "retired" despite #1 ratings
These one liners might be why NBC retired Jay Leno a little early!
NBC was upset by the fact Leno's comments were ALWAYS right on target.
"I was going to start off tonight with an Obama joke, but I don't want to get audited by the IRS."
On NSA surveillance: "We wanted a president who listens to all Americans - now we have one."
On a new IRS commissioner: "He's called 'acting commissioner' because he has to act like the scandal doesn't involve the White House."
On closing the Guantanamo prison for terrorists: "If he really wants to close it, turn it into a government-funded solar power company. The doors
will be shut in a month."
Concerning the B******i , Associated Press, and IRS scandals: "Remember in the old days when President Obama's biggest embarrassment was Joe Biden?"
On Obama saying he didn't know about the IRS scandal: "He was too busy not knowing anything about B******i to not know anything about the IRS."
"The White House has a new slogan about B******i : Hope and change the subject."
"It's casual Friday, which means that at the White House, they're casually going through everybody's phone calls and records."
"It is not looking good for President Obama. Today his teleprompter took the fifth."
"Fox News has changed its slogan from 'Fair and Balanced' to 'See, I told you so!'"
On Obama's commencement address: "He told the young graduates their future is bright unless, of course, they want jobs."
On a Chicago man who set a record for riding a Ferris wheel: "The only other way to go around and around in a circle that many times is to read the official report on B******i ."
On White House claims of ignorance on the scandals: "They took 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' out of the Pentagon and moved it into the White House."
Now the last, and I think best!--
"These White House scandals are not going away anytime soon. It's gotten so bad that People in Kenya are now saying he's 100 percent American."

The Tonight Show is part of show BUSINESS. The media empires that own these types of shows are in the business to make mega-bucks from advertising.
Advertisers pay big bucks for certain demographics, such as the 25-49 demographic. Jay had the highest of the late night talk show ratings, but his audience age was wrong for Madison Avenue.
His replacement by a much younger, much hipper Jimmy Fallon was strictly about money. It had nothing to do with Jay Leno's political jokes. It is the same reason that Letterman (who is extremely liberal)is going to be replaced, next year, by a younger, hipper Steven Colbert.
