Here are a few nuggets Jon Stewart delivered as a two-time host of the Academy Awards and some zingers he's aimed at President Bush and his administration.<br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>More: Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show'</a> 'I really thought that the makeup artist for <b>'Cinderella Man'</b> should have won. I mean, it’s so hard to make <b>Russell Crowe</b> look like he got in a fight.'<br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>More: Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show'</a> 'Big stars here: Johnny Depp. Harrison Ford. It’s unbelievable. Dennis Hopper is here, for God’s sake. That’s amazing. I only say that, of course, so Dennis knows where he is.'<br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>More: Jon Stewart</a> '<b>Oscar</b> is 80 this year, which makes him now automatically the front-runner for the Republican nomination.' <br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>More: Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show'</a> 'I do have some sad news to report. <b>Bjork</b> could not be here. She was trying on her Oscars dress and <b>Dick Cheney</b> shot her.' <br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>More: Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show'</a> 'I was happy to see 'Atonement' nominated this year for best picture quite frankly. Very happy. 'Atonement': Finally a story that captured the passion and raw sexuality of Yom Kippur.'<br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>Read more</a> '<b>President Bush</b> announced we’re going to Mars, which means he’s given up on Earth.' <br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>More: Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show'</a> 'If the events of Sept. 11, 2001, have proven anything, it’s that the terrorists can attack us, but they can’t take away what makes us American — our freedom, our liberty, our civil rights. No, only <b>Attorney General John Ashcroft</b> can do that.' 'We have it. The smoking gun. The evidence. The potential weapon of mass destruction we have been looking for as our pretext of invading Iraq. There’s just one problem, it’s in North Korea.'<br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>Read more</a> 'Last week North Korea publicly admitted for the first time it has nuclear weapons. <b>The Bush administration</b> has so far shown very little concern, as the North Korean missiles are believed only capable of reaching the blue states.' '<b>Donald Rumsfeld</b>. Love him or hate him, you’ve gotta admit: A lot of people hate him.' <br><a href=/index.asp?layout=hottopic&id=3523>More: Jon Stewart and 'The Daily Show'</a>
