Left-winger David Letterman mocked her on his late night show on CBS, referring among other things to her "slutty flight attendant look."

~ snip

. . . Letterman added a "joke" about 14-year-old Willow Palin being "knocked up by Alex Rodriguez" during a Yankees game:

Remember, only conservatives engage in hate speech!! I just have a hard time recalling him, Leno, or any of the other late-night nightlamps making similar comments about Chelsea Clinton.

It isn't possible that there is a double standard, is there???

Because they know what we already know, that she can beat Obama. Obama is as close to a Jimmy Carter clone as anyone has ever seen..Sarah is as close to Ronald Reagan as far as her beliefs and how she is treated by Dems and those in her own party. I think they have done research that shows that she can beat Obama, that is it..FEAR..fear that their time is running out. If she were irrelevant, or were going nowhere, why bother dissing her..why not just leave her alone

Letterman’s wife is not a glamour girl but she’s hardly a pig and if she were I wouldn’t make fun of her.

Thanks for the link. Here’s the message I sent.
Hope all reading this will do the same and follow thru with contacting advertisers. That’s the way the left got Imus.
Let’s all do our part......
................
Mr. Letterman’s hate speech against the Palin family is totally unacceptable. You may think this will increase his ratings against Conan but believe me, this is NOT the way to do it.
I expect CBS to fire Mr. Letterman for his reapeated filthy hate speech against this family.
This household will not watch CBS or buy anything from the companies who advertise on CBS until he is fired.
I am sending a copy of this message to everyone I know as well as all the advertisers I can reach.

I never said she was a pig, just not as good looking as Sarah, and that Dave wishes she was.

I know nothing of Ms. Letterman (she may be a lovely person), but Dave is a low life scum (IMHO) for slamming on an innocent 14 year old girl as he has.

I submitted my comments to CBS. All of us here need to do so.

If A-Rod is a man, he will speak out about this.

If A-Rod is smart he won't comment at all. Too many gremlins in his own closet and he better just focus on hitting the tar out of the baseball instead.

I wrote an email to the letterman show today regarding a comment letterman made that he and his writers were unable to make any jokes about uhbama because uhbama just did not make any mistakes!

ROFLMAssO!!!!!!

Oh.....sure!

So I gave them some ideas worthy of a joke or two regarding uhbama's reign so far.

I mentioned the teleprompter episodes, the fact that he NEEDS and USES a teleprompter AT A PRESS CONFERANCE for heaven's sake (I suggested they picture the man in the back room typing the answers into the teleprompter-sort of like an Oz episode-lol!

I reminded them of uhbama's date to NY-and the fact that he paid for the restaurant and show but WE provided the over 25,000 dollars in gas, protection, pilot fees, transportation etc...some estimates as high as 43,000 dollars that we choked up for their escapade...while most of America is suffering or touched in some way by job losses and high gas prices and have experienced serious hits in their mutual funds, IRA's or Roths, etc.

I also mentioned his horrific use of the grunt...UH...as in "Well we uh......uh......uh......uh plan to deliver uh......uh...." Etc. It is FAR more disturbing than mispronouncing a word or two. It's called stalling in order to get a decent and believeable thought into your head. Uhbama does it consistently.

THERE IS PLENTY to JOKE about over this blue lipped 'special' self described 'gifted' big eared narcissist.

Now we can add that letterman has to pick on people's chldren because his staff just can not find any jokes about uhbama and his angry wife.

My recent reply to CBS...

lettermans recent Top 10 about Gov. Sarah Palins recent visit to New York, as well as his comments about her during the show, were in very bad taste, extremely sexist, very insulting, and not in the least bit funny.
To joke about the rape of a 14 year old girl? Thats comedy???
Commentators, radio host, and so-called comedians have been driven off the air because of comments such as his. I will never watch this show again, and will make sure my family do the same. We have been to the studio several times and have enjoyed being in the audience, but that was many years ago, back when letterman was funny, but I date myself with that comment, it was SO many years ago.

You said — CBS fired Imus for saying far less.

Ummm..., it’s not open season on hos, but it is on conservatives...

To imagine this type of joke makes Letterman a pervert.

Hey Dave while we are being critical, you ought to keep your trap shut about Palin and her daughter with a wife like that. Maybe she should run a comb through her hair once in a while.

These people are multi-millionaires and they run around in public like that. They look like they fell out of a tree house.
