(10) He is a demented, 62-year old pervert who thinks it’s funny to joke about a 14 year old being raped and forcibly impregnated.
(9) His show stopped being funny at least 15 years ago.
(8) He’s a pig who wears diapers.
(7) Living in a glass house where he refused to marry his girlfriend of many years despite fathering a son, Harry, with her, making the little boy a bastard for nearly 7 years, means this particular hypocrite shouldn’t throw stones at ANY family, for ANY reason, lest stones be deservedly thrown back at him.
(6) Where are the jokes about Sasha and Malia being raped by baseball players? Where are the jokes about dirty watermelon pickers and greasy chicken fryers instead of “slutty flight attendants”? If vulgar, sick racial jokes are never allowed, why are vulgar, sick misogynist ones? If the First Daughters of the United States are clearly off limits, why isn’t a First Daughter of the State of Alaska? Answer us that, Leftists.
(5) Would Letterman think it was funny if Conan O’Brien or some other Late Night jester joked about Letterman’s son Harry being raped at Little League? Where does Letterman draw the line, exactly, on whose children it’s funny to joke about being raped.
(4) What would CBS do if a rival network DARED air something as vulgar as (5) or (6) above?
(3) Calling him a pig who wears diapers is an insult to pigs, diapers, and pigs who wear diapers.
(2) How phallic is it that Letterman obsesses not just over rape, but of rape specifically by a large man with a giant bat? That pervert has serious Freudian, Oedipal, anger, bad hair, gruesome teeth, you name it issues.
(1) David Letterman has a teeny weiner.

The Palin’s released a statement:
Todd Palin’s reads:
“Any ‘jokes’ about raping my 14-year-old are despicable. Alaskans know it and I believe the rest of the world knows it, too.”
- Todd Palin
Sarah’s:
“Concerning Letterman’s comments about my young daughter (and I doubt he’d ever dare make such comments about anyone else’s daughter): ‘Laughter incited by sexually-perverted comments made by a 62-year-old male celebrity aimed at a 14-year-old girl is not only disgusting, but it reminds us some Hollywood/NY entertainers have a long way to go in understanding what the rest of America understands – that acceptance of inappropriate sexual comments about an underage girl, who could be anyone’s daughter, contribute to the atrociously high rate of sexual exploitation of minors by older men who use and abuse others.’”
- Governor Sarah Palin
But please, we need to keep up the writing and phoning until this man is off of the air OR at the very least, suspended.
June 10, 2009 at 11:57 am
Completely agree with you guys…the daughter line was awful as was the flight attendant one. Completely uncalled for and out of line. I couldn’t believe he said that. One question did he say raped or just knocked up by arod? Just curious and not that it matters, still completely out of line.
I’m no palin fan but to go after the daughter was terrible…I strongly object to family of political figures being dragged into this crap.
Expect some public apology but nothing more(realistic)

June 10, 2009 at 5:16 pm
Man, he was so funny several years ago. Now he is so hateful and he doesn’t even care who knows it. This is ridiculous.
June 10, 2009 at 12:06 pm
Todd Palin: the CIVILIZED world knows it, sir. And you are a better man than I because I would have flown to NY and let David Letterhasbeen HAVE it in the kisser.
Hillbuzz: teeny weiner indeed.
June 10, 2009 at 12:10 pm
That’s why so many people in Hollywood refer to Letterman as a
“prick”.
I lived there. I’ve heard the stories about him. He’s a whining petulant little boy, and when he doesn’t get his way, he throws fits.
He treats his staff like shit, and doesn’t talk to any of his guests until they appear onstage.
Jerk.

June 10, 2009 at 12:38 pm
Wow …. I hadn’t intended to yell and I was very polite to the operator. But I heard that beep and out it all came, anger, fury, I’m kind of glad it was a recording.
June 10, 2009 at 12:19 pm
I suspect that First Dude Palin said a lot more that probably wasn’t suitable for public consumption. His statement displays the sort of terse “I’m biting clear through my tongue to keep from cussing you out and kicking you in the nuts” tone that I would imagine any man would feel over that kind of statement or “joke” being made about his daughter. No doubt Mr. Palin probably had a few ideas of his own about how to introduce Letterman to the business end of a baseball bat and Sarah likely talked him off the ledge so to speak.
June 10, 2009 at 12:21 pm
I have a feeling you’re right.
June 10, 2009 at 12:24 pm
Why not a joke about the half brother of Obama who was deported for raping a 13 year old? Wonder if he is invited to babysit Sasha and Malia? ALL DECENT PEOPLE should come out swinging on this, hanging Palin in effigy was very very bad but this is beyond words. And the lefts are more concerned about the rights of a Frikkin terrorist at Gitmo than the a white female Republican Governor, listen up white women, its open season on us, we have alot of untapped power and MUST USE IT!!!

June 10, 2009 at 12:33 pm
When Chelsea was in the White House and even Jenna and Barbara Bush the press did a good job of leaving them out of it. Why has the press crossed over this line now? Do they hate Sarah Palin so thoroughly that they have to destroy her 14 year old daughter? Does someone have a list of Late Show w/ Letterman’s sponsers. They should here how unhappy we are with David Letterman’s disgusting humor.

John Ziegler is doing God’s work. He appeared on CNN this am and obliterated the pea brain Contessa Brewer on why Sarah Palin was offended by Letterman’s comment. (Brewer acted as if Palin had no reason to take offense). In honor of his performance, I think I’ll go to Ziegler’s web site http://howobamagotelected.com to purchase the video he made on the election (I’ve been meaning to do it for a long time anyways).
June 10, 2009 at 12:39 pm
Oops. MSNBCObama, not Communist News Network.

So the Lamebrained Contessa says Palin shouldn’t be offended by insults, then SHE gets offended by…an insult.

Oh, My Gods
After reading this I happened to go to to Huffpoo to see what they thought. If you weren’t disgusted enough by what Letterman said, you should see what they have in the comments.
Hardly anything aboout what Letterman said, but plenty about Sarah Palin’s intelligence and how it’s no big deal.
I live in Philly and the big story here is about an 11 year girl who was brutally assualted last week. And to hear this and Huffpo’s comments? What the hell is wrong with those people?
No…No emails to CBS. No half-assed apologies from Letterman either. I’m writing a letter – A REAL LETTER one that uses paper and a stamp and I’m including some of the comments I’ve seen. That network is dead to me.
June 10, 2009 at 1:44 pm
I’m doing that also.
I somehow think that the e-mails don’t often get read. Usually an automatic response is sent back.
A letter, on the other hand, has to be opened and read.
Unless the folks at CBS merely throw them all in the trash!

I’d expect them to which is precisely why I’m sending a copy (I know more stamps) his 3 top advetisers that Hillbuzz has thoughtfully provided in another thread.
June 10, 2009 at 2:02 pm
All this disgusting Palin Bashing aside . . .
I’ve always wondered why decent folks would keep feeding at the CBS trough.
Their news department is basically Obama concubines. And the lib lemmings have the gall to refer to Fox News as “faux news”.
It’s one thing for folks who can’t afford cable to be stuck with network news. But to use CBS/NBC/ABC as your only sources by choice is like deliberately ingesting poison every day.
Fox News employees don’t swoon when discussing conservatives—unlike Mr. Tingly Mathews and others. They just report the news. Other shows like Hannity editorialize, because that’s the format of the show. To discuss varying opinions.
June 10, 2009 at 2:38 pm
come on folks.lets do this.together we can get him FIRED,,,won’t that be fun?YOU BETCHA!!!
June 10, 2009 at 2:50 pm
It does not matter whether Letterman said or did not say rape. He did not say the word. However sex with a 14 year old is automatically statutory rape in New york.
June 10, 2009 at 6:46 pm
you are correct Jim, i didnt make the statutory rape connection…a few hours after i posted i had the “aha” moment…just watched the interview again…pretty insane
June 10, 2009 at 3:42 pm
“Hey Letterman, I saw a picture of your dog, ugh, I mean you wife, no wander you
were hesitant to marry her!!”
I wonder if your mother is ashame of your
disgusting, dirty mouth son!! Is that what
kind of son your mother raised??
June 10, 2009 at 4:36 pm
I did a quick look at Facebook groups for David Letterman. The groups for people who don’t like him have a noticeable number of people who have joined, while the groups for those who like him have lost a few fans. And there are a bunch of comments about the vulgarity of the comments he made. I hope CBS keeps track of these groups because they will see that his popularity has tanked in the past couple of days.
June 10, 2009 at 7:03 pm
James Lileks, author of “The Gallery of Regrettable Food” (and TRULY a witty, funny man) addresses this Letterman travesty in his column today:
“We all have roll-the-eye moments when someone we like pops off, or an actor annoys you with a statement that suggests he’s conflated his larger-than-life screen size with the wisdom of Moses. But smug, politically-oriented crudity from someone not overtly political, delivered with the assumption we all share his “values”—boring.
“Addressed at kids of famous people: pathetic.
“People have used other words—disgusting, repellent, abominable, danker than the fetid breath of the nine-bladder’d Arazon, Privy-Cleaner of Hell, et cetera – but pathetic is all I can muster.
“But no, it must be funny, because David is funny and hip. Right? Or maybe not; maybe he’s actually a brackish, hermetically-souled guy who’s spend the last twenty years going from table to table with a giant wooden grinder, asking anyone if they want some fresh-ground scorn with that. Say when. Or maybe he’s about as edgy as a soccer ball, and exists only to remind people they were Edgy once, and hence must be ever-blessed with the gift of Wryness and Irony. With those shields we can never grow old, you know. We’ll always be as sharp and perceptive as we were when we were sitting on a cast-off sofa in college, working through a midweek buzz, happily fellated by the preconceptions the TV so charitably provided.
“Or so I remember; haven’t watched the show in years. I thought it was brilliant at first, but at some point early on Bill Wendell’s introduction stopped being Bill Wendell as Don Pardo and became Bill Wendell Intentionally and Ironically Being Don Pardo for Your Ironic Enjoyment. The introductory graphics got slick. Paul Shaffer morphed into this eyeless homunculus yes-man, like Ed McMahon on painkillers converted into handy portable Idol form (really, sometimes I see a picture of this tiny fellow wearing shades, grinning at nothing, and he reminds me of something Indiana Jones would replace with a weighted bag of sand before he stole it.)
“What’s amusing is how unamusing he is in the clip. How sour he seems. Compare him to his predecessors: Carson was all midwestern charm, with unreadable yet mannerly reserve; Steve Allen was almost as smart as he was certain you thought he must be, but he was cheerful; Parr was a nattering nutball covered with a rich creamy nougat of ego, but he was engaging. Letterman is empty; he’s inert; he stands for nothing except disdain for people foolish enough to stand for anything – aside from rote obesciance to all the things Decent People stand for, of course, all those shopworn assumptions passed around in the bubble.
“This posture was fresh in ’80; it even had energy. But it paralyzes the heart after a while. You end up an SOB who shows up at the end of the night to reassure that nothing matters. I think he may have invented the posture of Nerd Cool, an aspect so familiar to anyone who reads message boards – the skill at deflating enthusiasm, puncturing passion with a hatpin lobbed from a safe distance. The instinctive unease with the wet messy energy of actual people.
“Yes, reading too much into it. Really, it’s just a rote slam: If your mother is a loathed politician, and your older sister gets pregnant, famous old men can make jokes about you being knocked up by rich baseball players, and there’s nothing you can do. That’s the culture: a flat, dead-eyed, square-headed old man who’ll go back to the writers and ask for more Palin-daughter knocked-up jokes, because that one went over well. Other children he won’t touch, but not because he’s decent. It’s because he’s a coward.
“Oh, one more thing: it’s okay for David to say that because someone said something else about someone, and since I didn’t write about that, I’m a hypocrite. Just so we’re clear.
“Well, one more thing. Some say Dave – I’m sorry, the staff members who wrote the joke and had it printed on cards for him to read – thought the daughter in attendance was the older one who had the pregnancy controversy last year. This is possible; it also means that we accept as an excuse the fact that the writers confused the daughters they wished to humiliate.
“That confusion must be the reason the NYT left the joke out of its transcript of the monologue.
“One more thing: the monologue contained an Angela Lansbury joke. Dude is OUT THERE.
“Then again, there’s always Conan O’Brien, who thinks African-Americans are persona incognita in Wisconsin.
“These guys don’t get out much, do they?”

Letterman is a piece of shit! I’d like to see him do one of his man on the street interveiws now, he’d probably get his ass kicked. He’s just one more in a long line of foul mouthed Liberals who think they are superior to the rest of us. When society finally breaks down, they are not going to have anywhere to hide.

After just reading what D.L. said about Sarah Palin’s little girl, I switched the T.V. over to see what D.L. had on tonight. I saw a guy making fart noises with his arm. That David Letterman is a comic genius!!! If you’re a 3rd grader or a pedophile.
June 11, 2009 at 3:17 am
Looking at that photo of Letterman’s frumpy baby mama, I now understand why Dave is so obsessed with Gov. Palin. He’s been trash-talking her for months, telling audiences over and over how she arouses him. I guess you can’t blame the sick bastard. Sadly, Regina looks like she was made for him.
And speaking of getting knocked-up…Why doesn’t someone confront him with the fact that he made Harry a bastard and kept him in that status for 5 years?
In addition to letter-writing campaign, I’d like to see an enterprising reporter with a video camera follow his “wife” and son around their town in upstate New York – asking them what they think of Dave’s perverted, misogynistic attacks on the Palins. Maybe same could be done with Dave’s mom in Indiana. He opened the door. Families are now fair game for amateur videographers – all in the name of comedy.

Send a complaint to CBS at the link below:
http://www.cbs.com/info/user_services/fb_global_form.php
I sent the following complaint:
David Letterman’s distasteful jokes directed at Sarah Palin and her 14 year-old daughter were at best disgusting. To suggest that a professional baseball player would rape a 14 year-old daughter during the seventh inning of a baseball game is sickening. CBS has been complacent on the matter, and as a result, I will not view any of their programs going forward.
June 12, 2009 at 9:01 am
When is America no longer going to put up with this LIBERAL BULLSHIT//// Palins need to pursue a defamation of character lawsuit and also make CBS libel too. Maybe Conan needs to address Letterman and how sick he really is. Wouldn’t it be great if Conan ripped Letterman a new ONE
