David Letterman had Rachel Maddow on the Late Show last night and he came out swinging against the “nonsense” he sees on the part of those who are still opposing gay marriage. He found a willing partner in Maddow, who agreed with his impassioned assessment and filled him in on the latest news in the same-sex marriage fight.
“I am just sick and tired, and I think it has crossed the line into nonsense — this ongoing, politically nuanced, religiously nuanced discussion of gay marriage and gay rights,” Letterman began. “It is absolute stupidity. Humans have the right to do what humans do. That’s it. End of story. There’s no argument. There’s no exceptions. Humans have rights, and they get to do what humans get to do. Case closed. Good night.”
Maddow nodded vigorously in agreement as the applause from Letterman’s audience died down before saying that Letterman had basically just summed up the argument made by the 131 Republicans who signed a brief to the Supreme Court saying “we don’t want government in the middle of this.” She also shared her hopeful view on same-sex marriage, saying that it appears to have become “sort of a wedge issue for Republicans, and Democrats are essentially almost unanimously in support of it.”
“It’s beyond embarrassing when you think about it now,” Letterman added.....

No. And I am almost 40.
What kind of parents would name their son Rachel?
Hey Letterman, why don’t you do what you do best, screw some of your interns..what a disgusting piece of filth he is..and who the hell was that young man he had agreeing with him?
No, you’re not nearly old enough.

What a couple of maroons.
Then they proceeded to preach that the Gov should tell people what to do.
The same who would name their daughter Stanley.
2DV, you could have and should have reduced the headline into “Letterman & Maddow: Absolute Stupidity”. The result would have been the same, yet dozens of FReepers would have saved otherwise wasted time clicking on the article. :-)
Combining man and man no more makes a marriage than combining oil and oil makes a salad dressing.
What does that even mean. “Humans have the right to do what humans do.”
Anything Goes!
*so long as libtards approve it*
**** against the “nonsense” he sees on the part of those who are still opposing gay marriage.***
I don’t see what the argument is, after all, forty five years ago the Hippies declared marriage dead, old fashioned, unnecessary. If you loved someone that is all that mattered. After all, the marriage license is just a piece of paper.
Even today couples are living together without benefit of marriage and keeping to the Hippie example.
But all of a sudden, now marriage is the most important thing two people can engage in, BUT ONLY IF THEY ARE GAY!
I am for marriage diversity.
Gays are for sexual and gender segregation.
He was?
It is a cold war.
They mean to undermine the foundations of society. What to they care? They have no foundations. They are shape shifters.
Rush is right.
The moment we entertained the term “Same Sex MARRIAGE”
Marriage was dead.
Boyz will be Boyz....
There are humans and there are subhumans. For over 6000 years we have been warned against subhuman behaviour and no, they do not do what HUMANS do. Such behaviour is unnatural. If your dog did what subhumans do you would never accept that unacceptable behaviour and that dog would be gone because it is against nature.
Humans have the right to be protected from subhumans and not be forced to accept the unacceptable as a human rught when nothing could be further from rhe truth.
The Late Show is the official late show for the DNC.
What opposition?
