There are no gentlemen on the left. Just large women in slacks.

It wasnt about Willow ity was a reference to the pregnancy comedy of last year.

It's either a slow news day or they're trying to divert your attention. OR to get you all riled up on behalf of St. Sarah - it's always worked before.

gotta admit it's smart.

Hmm here is the cut & paste of the URL

Since the above link is from the Politico, you did not get the full story of how disgusting Letterman was, look at the video here. Sarah Palin was with her 13 or 14 year old daughter Willow, who was born in 1995, so Letterman is making a joke about the rape of a young girl. Whatever happened to the "Chelsea Clinton Rule", I guess it does not apply to the children of republicans.

I’m waiting for the liberals to defend Letterman’s disgusting joke, and help solidify my opinion of liberals, as mean spirited, vindictive, small-minded and hypocritical, partisan hacks.

Anyone who makes a blanket statement like this appears to be just that..."a mean spirited, vindictive, small-minded and hypocritical, partisan hack."

Minor children of politicians should always be off limits from politics, period. Adult children of politicians should remain off limits as well unless they begin actively participating in politics.

When a grown man has sex with a 13 or 14 year old girl, its rape, is it not?

Aw, perhaps Letterman's just jealous of Conan getting the big gig instead of him.

Sorry, if the Palins had had more class about any of this they'd be treated with more respect.

So you are actually saying that if the children of a politician doesn't show enough 'class' that they are fair game?
Are you saying that minor children of a politician bring this type of attention on themselves?
Or just that if Palin weren't such a douche comedians et al.. wouldn't be 'forced' to make fun of her minor children?!


I seem to recall you being quite upset at threads regarding Michelle Obamas appearance.......how is this different? Because Palin is a republican her children should be skewered? Because Michelle is married to a democrat she should be sacrosanct? What complete hyppocritical bs.

This joke wasn't disgusting, mean spirited, vindictive, small-minded, hypocritical, etc. Like most of what Letterman says, it was mildly funny.

I'm sorry, but joking about a grown man getting a Governor's 13 or 14 year old daughter, or anyone's young daughter, and getting her pregnant during a baseball game is not comedy, it is as low as you can go.

did you even watch the video before you overdosed on the Kool-Aid?

you know, this raving hysteria if anything to do with Sarah P is impugned is really kind of scary. the RW thought-controllers really do have great power over you all. this is a very good example.

If anything, it's an example of your seeming callousness.

The man insulted an underage girl to get a cheap laugh. Think about that.

I'm disappointed in you.
