It's disgusting and whats just as disgusting is people who defend it. When you put your political party over a joke about rape I think it's a sad day.

Oh my.

Try not to take the comments on this forum too seriously. I get emotional sometimes too, but I also try to keep some perspective on things. Anyone can register and post opinions here. You never know - you might actually get along with ELO in real life.

Thats what left leaning people, like Letterman, do when they err. Conservatives, on the other hand, just blame someone else.

Have to ask, did you hear his "apology"? Hint: it wasn't an apology, it was an excuse and another bit. Of course the hard left (you) will only hear what you want to hear.

Since were playing this game,

but to conservatives, sex between a 14 year old boy and a minister is OK!

As long as it's not called gay, and in airport bathrooms it's not sex!!


It was a bad joke [from lettermans writters]. (just like above). Get over it.

I'm not putting my political party over a joke. I just think it's much ado about nothing.

Yeah, they sure are the ones who made the initial statement, aren't they?

Since you think responding to an attack should never occur, should we not expect to see your response to this?

An attack? No, it was a joke that most politicians would ignore. Palin is playing her fans like a fiddle.

Really? In that some how this is Palin fault for Letterman making a joke about rape of her 14 year old daughter. You would think you could come out and say it's disgusting but you wont. Sad very sad.
