Letterman must LOVE Sarah Palin.
Think about it - this much publicity over a joke that wasn't really funny to begin with?

(Before anyone starts, I don't mean to say the joke was offensive - it certainly wasn't to me, anyway - I just didn't think it was among Letterman's best work).

And for that, I love Letterman - I stopped watching his show years ago because it just isn't that funny anymore, but he's doing more to make Palin look like the stupid whiny bitch she is than our entire party could. Seriously, how dumb do you have to be to assume that he's talking about your 14 year-old when your 18 year-old is the one who got knocked up?

1. The way the RW spins it is amazing.
Edited on Sat Jun-13-09 12:58 AM by madeline_con
I didn't know who Palin took to the game. I did know which daughter Letterman was tlking about.

Knocked up does not mean raped, so there's another booby prize for the Palin camp. Whatever.

4. The "rape" thing
is how she spun the fact that knocking up the other kid would be statutory rape, I believe. Still, that doesn't make her look any less of an idiot.

2. And when your 18 year old is an Abstinence Spokesperson
I don't even know who would think of any of the other girls. Bristol is the one in the news.

3. So much so, in fact, that
I didn't even know Palin had another daughter.

It just boggles the mind how she could react like such a hyperactive child and make such of an ass out of herself, even if you take her stupid conclusion out of the equation.

5. Sarah Palin and the entire GOP just don't get it....Deduction: Not capable of EVER getting it....
Its a pathological thing....thats the way it is...

a segment of our basic population is comp'd with Brainus ImPactus....most of which gravitates to the GOP Party.....Their Reasoning is Flawed....look at their collective results over the past 60 years....they have fucked America....

Dave is making money.....she is trying to establish presence....

Dave will go on....she will most likely fall by the wayside...

The Odds strongely suggest that

7. Actually, I kinda hope Palin keeps pushing the issue...

8. The timing of it is brilliant
Conan starts his new Tonight Show up against Letterman just over a week ago. Now thanks to the overreaction by Sarah Palin and Freepers, Letterman is the one in the spotlight. :think:

13. ANYONE'S an improvement over Jay..
I've only ever watched Johnny Carson & then Dave, forever. I could never stand that unctuous, slavering style of Jay.. It always reminded me of Mike Douglas or Merv Griffin. I like a sasrcastic, quick wit.. Dave's the best:)

9. Remember how relentless he was about McCain dissing him....
and not appearing on his show during the campaign (KO filled in at the last minute)? That and Tina Fey went a long way.
