Jay Leno took another comedic shot at the White House Thursday.

Early in his Tonight Show monologue on NBC, the host said, “President Obama now making his case for raising the debt limit. He said raising the debt limit does not increase debt – you know, like raising the speed limit does not increase speed” (video follows with commentary):

Can you imagine the grief President Bush would have gotten if he said something as stupid as raising the debt limit doesn't increase debt?

Yet when Obama says it, his media think he's brilliant.

Once again - what a difference a "D" makes.
