Jon begins with a warning to the Netherlands that The Daily Show is merely a fake news show. George W. Bush out-funnies "Joey" on primetime with a speech about alternate energy sources and social security. A few days later President Bush shows up at the White House Correspondents Dinner, where the first lady delivers a racy speech. Stephen Colbert was there for Mrs. Bush's midnight show and plays a secret tape of a far more ribald version of her speech. The media jumps to conclusions on the runaway bride case. Zell Miller talks with Jon about decency in America from a cultural and economic perspective.
