Q: What's the miracle of AIDS?
A: It turns fruits into vegetables.

Some people might find that as a disgusting, offensive, tasteless, sickening attack. Those people are overly sensitive and don't understand humor.

Yes that is a funny joke and it comes off as joke but everyone is well aware of Letterman's hatred for Palin and used her child for more sting. I believe children are on the do not attack list. I cannot stomach hussein obama but as far as I am concerned anyone that would go after his children would also be way out of line.

There was only one daughter with Sarah at the game, but does it really matter? Palin has three daughters, one is 18 and the others are minors, but even then, it is a low class jerk, who jokes about a ballplayer impregnating Palin's daughter, since he has only a 30% chance of getting the 18 year old daughter. Letterman did not specify, because he hates the entire Palin family for purely political reasons, and I doubt you will hear an apology out of him any time soon.

If you are a so-called celebrity, politician or public figure, you can expect Lettermen to ridicule you to the nth degree. Those who want the spotlight, get it.

(I think flight attendants should be insulted by his comments, not Palin)


What I don't get, is to get tickets, "The minimum age to attend the show is 18 years old.", so what parent would bring a child there in the first place.

What makes you think all libs or all ~any group~ is in 100% agreement about anything? Least of all off color jokes.

Don't play that here. Use some intelligence please.

WTF?!?

The majority of the American people don't know that Wailin' went to a ballgame, let alone which one of her five children she took to the game. Historically, she has taken all of her daughters on trips and has charged the State of Alaska for that privilege. I repeat, it was the Right who named Willow, not Letterman. Good job of placing the poor girl in the position she is in, neocons.

Dont you understand that?!

Im glad to see however that you admit the joke isnt about RAPING anyone. Going to fix the two LIES in your nutty thread title now?
I see, so any old daughter is fine, because she has Sarah Palin for a mother.

No, the thread title stands, its my opinion that a grown man having sex with a 13 or 14 year old girl is rape, there may even be a few laws that agree with me.

I'd agree, although in the big scheme of things it only shows how stupid and desperate the right have become.

The thread title is a LIE!! Letterman never named Willow. YOU did! YOU are responsible for the bad press Willow Palin is getting because YOU said Alex Rodriquez raped her.

The thread title should read,

WAPASHA SAYS ALEX RODRIQUEZ RAPED WILLOW PALIN
