but it was a JOKE!

No. It wasn't. It was a statement that slimed and probably humiliated a little girl. Since when do good people stand by and allow children to be used as political fodder especially in a sexual way?

Also there is a double standard. Had this been said about Obamas 10 yr old, Letterman would be hiding in a closet a year later. Is Palins 14 year old daughter less that good people should ignore the awful things that were said?

Our society is coarsening and we stand by and allow it. Also a lot of idiots form political opinions based on pop culture and Letterman is part of that pop culture.

No. We could not and should not let this slide.

Dont get me wrong... I dont think it should slide...
