The early show on TV last night—Obama and then Boehner, repeating themselves…again—wasn’t very funny, but “The Late Show with David Letterman” was hilarious: NBC News anchorman Brian Williams came on with a mostly true story about making a trip upstate to an awards ceremony in the company of Regis Philbin.  You only have to know that Williams has a great sense of humor, that Philbin has been on television since the Garfield Administration, and that Letterman and Williams both love Reege, in that way that guys who love other guys rip on them to express affection (click the pic for the video):
