Visited a friend on Monday night and Letterman was on the tube. Every 3 minutes, Letterman or one of his flunkies made reference to the Cheney incident. There was even a lewd routine about Mrs. Cheney and her "lesbian" daughter. Letterman implied that Cheney was an incompetent and unsafe hunter, that he deliberately tried to murder Whittington, that the WH was stonewalling the media, on and on. All this became the theme of the entire show, basically a Cheney family hate-fest. It was utterly disgusting, way over the top.
I said a few jokes, not making a career of it.
You had to expect a few jokes, I mean it is an issue that writes its own jokes. I didnt see Letterman , but he is over the top more than occassionally.
