I can respect that suggestion - but they will likely do nothing as it will only serve to give MORE ammunition to the libnutroots.
We have a duty and an obligation to see to it that this kind of attack is never allowed again.
If A-Rod did not have so much baggage he could sue for slander. He could well afford it.
Dave might be a Lambda member.
I never suggested any such thing.
Yup. The proper response would have been to remain above his retarded level of communication, and let people come to the conclusion that he is an utter ass on their own.
Letterman is a silly, angry little man. If people continue to see Palin in these skirmishes over the way she's treated by interviewers and crap like this, she will rapidly become a joke.
Yes, that's right--if I don't care for the WAY people respond, I must think it's OK to attack children.
Nice to see the liberal mindset being taken up by supposed "conservatives".
Plain to see what side you are on. A girl gets pregnant so that makes her fair game for a rape joke, and it was a rape joke as verified by Letterman's so called apology. The "joke" wasn't about Bristol, it was about the daughter that Palin had with her at the ball game and it was well publicized which daughter that was, 14 year old Willow. Your little comment has all the liberal talking points, either you are a lib troll or a Palin hater or, a third possibility, you are an insensitive dolt. Pick one.
One of the biggest problems with President Bush was his unwillingness to strike back at the lies, deceit, and mischaracterizations of his actions.
We were weakened by his unwillingness to strongly defend himself.
“Your little comment has all the liberal talking points, either you are a lib troll or a Palin hater or, a third possibility, you are an insensitive dolt. Pick one.”
Insensitive Dolt of course. Ask anyone. Try to get your accusations straight. If I think the joke was about Bristol, then by definition its not a rape joke. The problem with this whole thing is people try to make too much of it. Rather than make a defensible and clear point about gratuitous attacks on Palin and her children, they ruin it by going a bridge too far. The stalker and extortionist argument is a perfect example. No one is going to buy it and makes the accuser look like an idiot.
I never claimed they did, which makes YOU the liar.
My response (ditto):"So when should we expect your dissertation on John McCain's and Rush Limbaugh's doing just that to Chelsea Clinton?"
Your lying version of what I claimed: "They joked about the rape and prostitution of Chelsea!?"
I won't hold my breath waiting for your honorable retraction.
