If this churlish ogre really thinks jokes about "knocking up" a 14 yr old are funny- he's an even worse mess than previously suspected... and should be promptly locked-up. Letterman now tells us in his pathetic non-apology that he actually meant to cruelly mock 18 y.o. Bristol Palin on his national TV show, the OTHER innocent teenage daughter of Sarah Palin- good grief. I say give Todd Palin five minutes alone with this creep- maybe then he'd get the hard education in moral clarity that he so obviously lacks.
David Letterman is not a well-adjusted person, to say the least... and it's very difficult to conjure-up empathy for unhappy and cruel- yet rich, famous people who fell into their dream job. But regardless of his countless blessings, ol' Dave’s got a lot of hangups- and clearly has myriad issues with women, likely due to the fact that he was a friendless geek and major chick repellant in HS and college... by his own admission. You ever seen the guy back in the 70s when he was an Indiana weatherman? He's such a dork it makes you squirm just to watch.
But unhappy people with psychological issues -instead of getting the help they need- have a tendency to tell themselves that they're "just fine" -everyone else is nuts- and they can also be very cruel towards those they are envious of. They'll justify almost any immoral action employed to define their target in a way that makes them feel better about themselves- if even for just a minute. A happy, confident, socially-comfortable and attractive person like Sarah Palin is everything the confused and troubled Letterman could never be... and could never have, either- plus her success also discredits his misguided liberal world-view. Thus the classless, vindictive "humor" he spews.
Letterman inexplicably holds working-class women -like flight attendants- in contempt, as noted by Michelle Malkin. He insults them every night as if normal people with a real job are some sort of laughing stock- apparently being a snarky, condescending elitist makes him feel superior to everyone else, even though in reality he's just a gangly schmoe from Indiana. You get the feeling Letterman is basically jealous of anyone who's well-adjusted and content- and he's always been the sarcastic, bitter outsider. Homely wierdos with an oversize ego like Phil Spector who get famous and powerful -then wonder why women don’t bow to them- are always a bit creepy. Since Letterman married a frumpy woman who looks like Peppermint Patty, keeps her locked-away from the public like the Taliban, and has even mentioned on-air that Palin "arouses" him- it's not too hard to see that this guy's got some troubling issues he needs to find a better way of dealing with.
Add to that the fact that he's yet another aging boomer desperate for the Obama Administration to validate his clueless lifelong liberal views, and you have a formula that compelled this twisted individual to make such appalling comments about Sarah Palin and her family. But David Letterman knows perfectly well what his "jokes" were tasteless, unfunny, and cruel- and he should be fired for it. Time to hang it up Dave… your tired old schtick is about as funny as a train wreck.
There's a new website "FireDavidLetterman.com" that's worth a look for those looking to take the next step and put a stop to the growing occurrence of such cruel, tasteless slander of worthy individuals. If the media is given license to attack and denigrate whomever they wish for political reasons, why would anyone worth a damn be willing to endure such a treatment? No wonder we're stuck with a power-mad, fraudulent charlatan like Obama... talented, experienced, good-faith individuals have little reason to subject themselves to such certain media abuse.
If you didn't catch Sarah Palin's discussion of the whole issue on the Today Show, I would really recommend that you check it out- a strong performance on hostile turf that displays Palin's impressive progress in learning to deal with a manipulative and disingenuous leftist press corps... one of her best so-far:
Go get em, Sarah- and don’t mind the press, nobody will be listening to them anymore after the pending Obamamania implosion- not to mention when MSNBC parent General Electric's ties and deals with the Obama administration are fully exposed.
And speaking of Obama's adoring poodles over at MSNBC, John Ziegler sure did a great job in his interview regarding Palin vs. Letterman- where he put MSNBC drone Contessa Brewer into spin-mode... this guy’s really pretty funny.
Ziegler -who famously exposed John Kerry's 2003 line to Pasadena students that if they didn't study hard they would get "stuck" fighting in Iraq- has recently shot a documentary "Media Malpractice: How Obama Got Elected" -a clip of which has gone YouTube viral- and seems to be greatly enjoying confrontational promotional appearances and interviews with the very same media he's implicated in the film. I have a feeling we'll be hearing a lot from John as his career evolves- he's a clever, entertaining, and intelligent conservative... and the kid's got talent (scratch golfer, too-).
Here's the Ziegler interview- this is how these people need to be talked to… good job John:
