Jimmy Fallon: Bush, the Great Wall of China

When Jimmy Fallon does political humor, he will occasionally make an Obama joke. That's more than what other comedians with late night shows do.

Fallon at least shows a bit of an effort to be a little balanced.

Like Conan O'Brien on Wednesday night, Fallon did a joke about Obama's trip to China. Also like O'Brien, George W. Bush was the target.

JIMMY FALLON: President Obama visited the Great Wall of China. He said, 'It's magical. It reminds you of the sweep of history.'

When George Bush visited, he said, 'It's magical. It reminds me of something Spider-Man would love to climb.'

Add that to the enormous list of 'Bush isn't too bright' jokes.

Fallon followed that joke with one that makes Obama look out of touch and not too bright.

FALLON: In a new interview, President Obama said that the people could lose confidence in the U.S. economy if our debt continues to grow.

And Americans were like, 'Uh, way ahead of you, dude.'
