"The reality is, going hard at Bush now wouldn't go over very well," says David Javerbaum, a writer for Comedy Central's Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Craig Kilborn, star of CBS's Late Late Show, deadpanned that the Secret Service wrestled the pretzel to the ground, but he continues to bar jokes at Bush's expense.

He looked for comedy in everyday trivia, taking a mike into the audience or turning on a camera outside the studio and simply commenting on people coming in and out of the Hollywood Ranch Market across the street.
