Funny lady Jane Lynch got political when she filled in as host on CNN’s Piers Morgan Tonight and interviewed the iconic comic Joan Rivers.
Lynch asked Rivers if she’s into politics, and Rivers, who’s never one to hold back said, “Not at all. I think they're all morons.” Rivers said that the politicians need to stop worrying about their next elections and get back to running the country.

“If you don’t have a uterus I don’t want to hear about it,” Rivers said.
