Top Ten John Kerry Excuses
The David Letterman Show ^ | 11/04/04 | Those wacky Letterman writers

Posted on 11/04/2004 7:13:50 AM PST by TonyInOhio

10. Voters were in a fever-induced haze because they couldn't get flu shots.

9. Floridians confused by shockingly unconfusing ballots.

8. Maybe it wasn't best idea to begin speeches with "yo mama is so fat" jokes.

7. The endorsement from Osama Bin Laden didn't exactly help him.

6. "Dude--it's the Curse of the Bambino."

5. Should've campaigned more in New Mexico, less in regular Mexico.

4. Turns out voters think it's hot that Cheney has a lesbian daughter.

3. Thought America was ready for a lunatic first lady.

2. Voters seem to really like a weak economy and a badly-run war.

1. Was distracted by late night erotic phone calls from Bill O'Reilly.

Is it just me, or does anyone share my opinion that the Letterman top ten list was only marginally funny when it began, and has become tedious and predictable, and become, generally, unfunny?

Who is David Letterman, and what does he do for a living?

Well, since you asked, my opinion is that Letterman has always been overrated, he is sometimes funny but he is like Starbucks coffee, most of his real followers watch because someone told them it was the cool thing to do.

Be fair, you can't expect a lawyer to be honest.

1. this is Letterman's take on excuses coming from KerryEdwards

It's no use claiming "a weak economy and a badly-run war." if the voters aren't going to agree it's a situation you can improve.

2. I just like making number points
