David Letterman - Top Ten List
Ranked #7,269 in Entertainment, #80,671 overall
Man Behind the Top Ten List
David Letterman has been delivering his top ten lists on late night since September 18, 1985. The list was called "The Top Ten Things That Almost Rhyme with Peas."
Most of the time the lists are quite funny, though there have been a few bombs along the way. I don't watch the show every night. But when I do, the "Top Ten List" is the best part of the show.
The Top Ten List was added as a way to mock People magazine, which featured such lists as the "Worst 10 List." David Letterman made a remark that he found the magazine's list annoying. This started David's satire of such a list, which became am instant hit and is now a signature feature of the show.
Here is ten of the David Letterman's Top Ten List. At the end there will be 100 mini jokes or lists. (10 Top ten list = 100.)
If a Dog Were President

Election Canine Merchandise on Cafepress
Since there are a few dogs out there running for President of the United States, I thought I would let everyone out there know how it would be different if the next President were a dog. Thought this was a good list to show on Embrace the Hill and
German Shepherd Would Make a Great President
10. There would be a doggy door in the oval office
9. At press conferences, instead of "Mr. President," reporters would shout, "Here fella!"
8. Goodbye Whitewater Scandal, hello Toilet Bowl Water Scandal.
7. The Washington Monument would be replaced with a hundred-story fire hydrant.
6. The United States might have a more coherent foreign policy.
5. Public Enemy #1 would be that neutering bastard Bob Barker.
4. The secret service and the CIA (Canine Intelligence Agency) would be dispatched to catch that little chuck wagon.
3. The Country would really be run by the dog's smarter poodle wife.
2. Here's your new national anthem: (videotape of dog barking the x-mas jingle).
1. One word: Snausage Gate.
