Pop Culture vs. America: This Round Goes to Sarah Palin

He may have further burnished his left-wing bona fides, but when it comes to winning elections David Letterman did his side no favors this week ‘joking’ about the statutory rape of Governor Palin’s 14-year old daughter. From the looks of this interview, She Who Strikes Terror In Leftist Hearts wants to turn the unsavory affair around into a push back against all of pop culture, which is certain to resonate, especially if we keep pushing back. Just compare the bitter, sour, twilight-of-his-increasingly-pathetic-career Letterman to this intelligent, poised, cheerful, vibrant woman with her horizons still open to everything. It’s kind of a no contest.

Most heartening is that unlike some on our side, the Governor seems to get it. If this unfortunate episode proves anything, it’s that Sarah Palin understands that a Republican is up against more than just their Democrat opponent and the mainstream media; pop culture is also waging ideological war on all things conservative and traditional. This is a reality we ignore at our own peril, and this week Governor Palin (and Carrie Prejean, for that matter) fought back and won wielding truth, good humor and dignity.

Matt Lauer deserves credit for behaving himself. Tough but fair made a Haley’s Comet-like appearance at NBC this morning. But I am curious about the consequences Lauer expects Letterman to face. Other than in Hell, what could Lauer possibly mean? Letterman just savaged Sarah Palin’s family. If there’s a faster, safer, easier way to enhance your mass media/pop culture resume, I’m unaware of it.

I wrote this in 2005 and was villified by Freepers for it. Now Freepers are praising Nolte for saying the same thing.

Glad cons are finally starting to wake up and smell the coffee.

Now if the rest of the GOP would follow Palin’s lead and speak out instead of acting like sheep....

I’m on Boycott Letterman day 5000.

[SolidWood]

I will send him my thanks! Also thank and encourage Assemblyman Gary D. Finch (R,C,I - Springport)!

There’s nothing earth shattering about what I wrote. There is also nothing others didn’t say before.

I’m just glad people are starting to realize it.

I’m real happy Palin showed some sand. It has taken a woman to do it. Now may the pusillanimous GOP senators will follow.

An excellent article, and this is probably the best part:

But bravo, Governor. The Lettermans of the world are nothing to be afraid of. In fact, they’re less than nothing. Pop Culture is wholly owned by bullies. The American people understand this and are not impressed by them, but they’re also not impressed with politicians who don’t fight back, either.

It bears repeating.

Olive Garden is a stinko restaurant. Now, besides the lousy fake Italian food, we have another reason to stay away from that place.

Do yourself a favor...instead of going to Olive Garden, stay home, get a jar of Prego and some salad ingredients, and make your own fake Italian meal!

I've been surfing digg.com, digging up any pro-Palin, anti-Letterman discussions, and down voting the pro-Letterman comments, which are usually either nasty, condescending or both.

OTOH, I can't downvote the reddit folks fast enough.
Everybody, please check out this page. You don't have to leave a comment if you don't want to, but down-vote the bad comments:
