Comedy has to have an element of truth to play off of, to be funny. There is no wit, nothing funny or humorous in that kind of joke about women, period - no matter what the age.
I haven't read through all the posts, but I can't believe Letterman is trying to make us believe that he would never joke about a minor child, but he would - and does - deliver raunchy jokes about a young (allbeit legally an "adult") 18-year-old.
Anyone who has had children knows that an 18-year-old is still in many ways a kid.
Besides, I object vehemently to making women the butt of raunchy jokes! Where is NOW? Letterman is not a comedian. What he did was evil.
Palin really said as it is on the today show this morning in an interview with Matt Lauer!
She also mentioned the double standard and how Obama before he was the president told the media that family was off limits for jokes or anything and how this was obayed by Liberals and Rep. to Liberals, but not in case of Rep. woman. You go girl, Palin showed how she can handle her self and I hope Letterman's ratings will drop so he will find out what he really did.
Where is the out cry for him being fired...like with Imus...well Rep. are different we just want the ratings to take care of it!
Palin is, uh, prevaricating. Obama made that comment in response to all the nasty rumors about Bristol Palin being Trig's mother.

Except when we send them to war. Then they all magically grow up!
And your reading comprehension continues to astound! No one said that Obama was the source of these comments (as much as you would love that statement). The arguement is with Letterman and his classless remarks. You can try to redirect it all you want, just shows your agenda here.
But Sarah is blaming Obama, and has before. See below for the OP:

I dont know This doesnt take brains, just emotional instinct. The only reasons she hasnt disappeared from public view post Nov 4 is because she's used the whine-and-blame act on talk programs for her troubles for the last six months. That act really speaks to some Palinite-type folsk, sickening and transparent though it may be to normal people. .
Hmmm, you whined and complained NON STOP when Bush was in office, and now you whine and complain anytime someone posts something negative about Obama. Sickening and transparent.

what about when rush limbaugh and john mccain both called chelsea clinton ugly? did they ever apologize? mccain apologized because he basically had to save face. there is clearly a double standard here. palin and her clan are clowns and deserve to be the butt of jokes.
