Letterman has been dissing Bush for years -and NOW the freepers get upset?

[Beaverhausen]

Anyone who has been watching Dave regularly knows that nightly he has gone after Bush in the Top Ten as well as those smaller segments (the names of which all escape me right now).

CBS won't care a bit that freepers complain - in fact I'm sure the ratings for last night's show were great!

Here, for your pleasure, is a Top Ten List from Oct. 2005



Top Ten Signs Bush Is Drinking Again


10. "Begins every speech with, 'Dude, I'm so hungover'"

9. "Welcomed John Roberts with awkward, lingering hug"

8. "During recent speech, coughed up a swizzle stick"

7. "Now spells his name 'B-U-S-C-H'"

6. "Appointed Michael Brown head of Zima"

5. "He's been pronouncing words correctly"

4. "Next Supreme Court nominee: Johnny Walker Black"

3. "He's been asking Clinton for 'That hefty girl's telephone number'"

2. "Even the twins are urging him to slow down"

1. "Called a cabinet meeting to discuss 'Laura's dynamite ass'"


Here's another good one:
