2. That's exactly what Letterman did
but in a classy, sarcastic, way.

3. Does anybody really think this wasn't a deliberate PR stunt by
Letterman to boost his ratings against Conan's late night debut?

Who better than SP? She is so unbelievably EASY! Just twiddle her diddle a little bit and she's all over it. She is soooooo unable to resist the attention-grabbing drama that is her lifeblood.

Call me sadistic, but I would love to see SP go up against Letterman and watch the sideshow. He can slice through hypocricy like a scalpel through butter and it'll feel so warm/fuzzy that SP will be thanking him for the lovely interview before she notices the blood.

:rofl:

8. Couldn't be a PR stunt because....
Conan and Leno have said similar things and Sarah Palin didn't say at word about it in the past.

This from Conan O'Brien:

"Sarah Palin is going to drop the first puck at the Philadelphia Flyers hockey game. Then Palin will spend the rest of the game trying to keep the hockey players out of her daughter's penalty box."--Conan O"Brien


And this from Jay Leno during the presidential campaign:

Gov. Palin announced over the weekend that her 17-year-old unmarried daughter is five months pregnant. And you thought John Edwards was in trouble before! Now he has really done it. -- "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno," 9/2/08

4. Rethugs are attempting to be "relevant"
they have nothing to say; so they are drawing at straws. It's pathetic.

7. This is completely political and Letterman does need to defend himself adamantly...
Edited on Sun Jun-14-09 09:42 PM by GivePeaceAchance
Fair enough joke in bad taste but clearly his joke wasn't in the nature it has been defined. Letterman needs to point out it's political as calling a very decent man President Barack Obama a terrorist. This needs to be named and shamed for what it is quick fast and responsively. I know he's responded before and apologized for making a joke about her daughter but I think he needs to highlight how it's being used as a politcal vehicle and how politics can't be used in this way. It's not truth and justice.

9. And what he should do is remind everyone how a certain...
...fat ass drug addict and a certain former Republican Presidential candidate (who BTW, happened to be Palin's running mate) both made far worse jokes about young Chelsea Clinton while her dad was in office!

10. Looks like
The good Reverend Muthi's exorcism failed. Sarah Palin still suffers demonic possessions. What a fucking bat shit crazy nut.
No wonder Todd drinks.
She and Michelle Bachmann will be the Republican's sacrificial lambs in 2012. In essence they remove two loony birds with one stone. Operation Two Birds is on the fast track.
The pool of voters still buying thought disorders and loose associations is shrinking.

11. Boy, I am *really* getting sick of this idiotic woman.
The joke's over. It was fun. Now it's time for her to go away. She makes such an ass of herself every time she talks. Statutory rape? Letterman must apologize to all women? OMG.

:eyes:
