Letterman? Do they call him Letterman because of the big “L” on his forehead?

If he does do your show I’ll have to question his intelligence.

I got news for you Letterman, only progressive Commie douche bags watch your “Show” Romney won’t get any of those votes anyway. Plus, Letterman just plain creeps me out, what a sleaze bag

"'This morning, I did something I've never done in my life,' Letterman told viewers. 'I had to go downtown and testify before a grand jury.

'This whole thing has been quite scary," he said. 'I had to tell them how I was disturbed by this. I was scared for my family. I felt menaced by this man.'

Then, Letterman added, 'I had to tell them all the creepy things I had done.'

Letterman continued: 'The creepy stuff was that I have had sex with women who work for me on this show.

'My response to that is, yes I have,' Letterman said.

'I was worried for myself, I was worried for my family, ' he said. 'I felt menaced by this, and I had to tell them all of the creepy things that I had done.

Letterman’s production company said that during his testimony to the grand jury he had admitted affairs with his staff. There was no indication when the affairs took place."

Letterman don’t get it. Romney voters can’t stay up late because we have to get up early and go to work in the morning. Those who watch his show have already made up their minds to vote for Barry the Free Stuff Guy. Romney going on the Letterman Show would change absolutely nothing.

well ... Romney should go on as many of these shows as possible. If he can’t handle David Letterman then he has no business running for President. he could use it to educate the masses on some key points of conservatism and probably even get Letterman to admit deep down that he in fact is a conservative when it comes to managing his own money. he could also use it to explain his 47% gaffe comment. better that Mitt explain it then leave it to be explained by others

Obama Visit Nets David Letterman Best Rating Since 2010

... The last time the show saw better ratings was February 9, 2010, when Jennifer Garner, singer Sade and model Brooklyn Decker made appearances ...

My 78 year old mother says she won’t watch Letterman because she thinks he’s “not all there.” I concur.

Empty Chair blew off foreign leaders to appear as a guest on The Shrew.

It’s called GRAVITAS.

Manchildren don’t have it.

David Letterman was even worse with Bush when he appeared on “Late Night” in 2000 to find the nation’s Emperor of Irony uncharacteristically turning completely earnest — grilling Bush for several minutes on capital punishment.

“Letterman proved to be twice as tough as many of the journalists covering Bush,” declared an exuberant Jake Tapper on Salon. As though Bush was responsible for Texans’ longstanding approval of the death penalty.

Bush’s Democratic predecessor, Ann Richards, never issued a death-row pardon and oversaw 50 executions. Yet she didn’t incur Letterman’s wrath in her 1992 appearance on his show. “Ann Richards will be out here a little bit later,” Letterman said at the time. “You can’t help but have a lot of respect for this woman and her accomplishments.”

-- Kyle Smith, The New York Post

There’s a decent argument that Romney should go on shows of this nature, but certainly not Letterman’s. The man is scum. I look forward to the day I see that degenerate POS’s name in the obituaries.

"The relationship allegedly included late-night trysts in the office or his Tribeca loft and trips with other staff members on NetJets to the Indy 500, his ranch in Montana, and his home on St. Barth’s, often with his partner and, later, wife, Regina Lasko, and their son, Harry. “Dave is truly the greatest boss I could ever have,” Stephanie would say.

Arnot says that Halderman, after reading her diary, ordered her to leave, but she implored him to let her stay. The extra money she was earning from appearing on the show, she said, was critical to her future with Halderman, with whom she wanted to have a child. She begged him to forgive her, swearing that she would end the relationship with her boss, and Halderman believed that she had—until now.

He will write it all out as a screenplay, he finally decides, and tell how he came to learn that the popular host had fostered an environment of “workplace sexual misconduct,” where young Late Show women fell into two categories: those having sex with Dave, whose careers advanced accordingly, and those not having sex with Dave. Or, as a close observer put it, “whose careers did not progress, because they were not given the opportunities and shown the favoritism that Letterman bestowed upon the people he was sleeping with or had slept with.”

Reporters began tracking down current and former interns and staff members of the various incarnations of Letterman’s talk show to ask them, “Did you have sex with Dave?” They tried to bribe guards at the Ed Sullivan Theater, offering $1,500 for entrée onto the Late Show premises, where, the New York Post reported, “skirt-chasing funnyman David Letterman’s restricted office … has all the trimmings for a bachelor on the prowl, including a fold-out couch and a kitchen.”

Yet I had heard of several women who had worked for Letterman and who had been romantically involved with him, allegedly including another former assistant, along with rumors of others...Most of the other women were not granting interviews, which gave rise to rabid insider talk that the Late Show is a boys’ club, served by young women who arrive in eager droves via an intern program that’s basically a beauty-and-brains contest, in which the winners wend their way into the lair of the late-night king, where they receive promotions and other perks, all kept secret by means of confidentiality agreements.

After dating during college, Letterman and Cook eloped in 1968, when they were in their early 20s. Letterman bought a $10 pewter wedding band from a pawnshop, and Michelle’s roommate Sue Berninger drove the couple to the home of a justice of the peace.

“Boy, am I glad to see you!,” Letterman told the justice. “These broads picked me up out there on (U.S. Highway) 36. We started talkin’, and the next thing I know they say, ‘Hey, you’re kinda cute. Let’s go get married.’ Hell, I’ve never seen these broads before in my life!”

“Shut up and let’s get this over with!” admonished Michelle. When they were finally man and wife, they posed for the standard photo, joining hands for a close-up. According to Lewis, “On Michelle’s left ring finger was the thin pewter band and Dave’s hand was … ” He explained that Letterman had his middle finger extended. (Michelle Cook declined to comment.)

The marriage lasted only two years after they moved to L.A. “For what I put her through, I should burn in hell for the rest of my life,” Letterman later said. “It was just me being a dork: hey, young girls!”

1. John McCain once blew us off -- how'd that turn out?

McCain cancelled once, then appeared on the show and had to put up with Letterman giving him ____ for not making the earlier appointment, then grilling him about Palin.
