“No one is going to fire Letterman. So it’s not worth even trying. We don’t want to be the PC police.”

I do not agree—I believe CBS needs all the viewers it can muster up. To lose a few can hurt them.
If they keep garbagemouth on, they deserve whatever they get.

Imus got taken out to the woodshed, and it was nonstop 24/7 coverage of his “nappy headed” comment.

Letterman doesn’t even get a slap on the wrist.

“The Palins have no intention of providing a ratings boost for David Letterman by appearing on his show. Plus, it would be wise to keep [14 year old] Willow away from David Letterman.” ~snip Fire David Letterman Facebook Group(E

Oh MY! Isn't that a LAME
Response, Sarah would of been wise in keeping her Bristol out of the media BLITZ of abstinence after the fact! All Bristol's appearance served was making it COOL for a WHITE privileged females to have a baby out of wedlock. IMO..all
Bristol's PAID TABLLOID Magazine interview did,was to portray conservative,white woman do it too. Un fricking believable!
No wonder the socialist media have fresh meat.

I don't watch his show. I work for a living and have to get up early and honestly never found him to be funny. I did hear his comments via the Internet. I went to CBS.com and watched a clip of his show that had Lexus as the advertiser to the clip. I wrote Lexus and received a generic BS reply about not purchasing specific time slots. No answer would have been better than a lame excuse. Needless to say Toyota was fired from the economy in which I control. In all I contacted about 5 sponsors and 1 (Embassy Suites owned by Hilton) responded appropriately. I cant control the world but I can control my family spending habits.

I agree. He sucks, and is a leftwing moonbat. That’s why I don’t watch him

What decent person will ever go into politics if this crap continues.

Not one. It's depressing.

Willow was at the game. Bristol was not.

But we can make a point that other people have fee speech rights as well ... by excercising them.

I'm with you. I'd like it very much if Letterman, by public outrage, lost his job. It would send a strong message to the left that we're not rolling over anymore.

And I could see myself being quite supportive if CBS did decide to fire him. I just don't feel comfortable (at this moment) calling for his firing myself. And I could easily be wrong.

My business has approximately 15 employees. I would fire any one of them in a minute if they publicly made "jokes" like this.

You have that right and that is a good thing. I have no problem with it. It's probably just a personal hang up but I have problems with *me* calling for his firing. I'd be happy if it happened, though... maybe I should change my mind on this.

But employers can also do as they see fit.

There's your kicker right there folks. Keep up the pressure so the private company fires the bitter chump.

Don’t get upset with Letterman; he’s doing what comes naturally to him. Get upset with the numbskulls who watch that crap, night after brainless night.

Don’t get upset with Obama; he’s just a little ole community organizer. Get upset with the numbskulls who voted for this idiot.

Next time you’re discusisng politics with a lib ask them if they voted for the messiah. If they say “yes” call ‘em a numbskull and walk away. Thier stupidity got us into the mess we’re now in.

Conservative do defend the defenseless (14 year old girls, for example) from predators and unfair attacks of any kind.

Actually I have three sons, young adults. But even I have enough imagination to sense how horrified and devastated a young girl would feel if she were exposed to this kind of public abuse.

This situation really upsets me and it does so on a number of levels personal, social and political. It really pushes my buttons. I want legal, legitimate and overwhelming payback from Letterman and everyone in the media like him.

The liberal media double-standard must die. We must treat each other with respect or be publicly vilified.

yeah - I was noticing the difference over the past few days in Freepers reactions, and of course the parents with young daughters had the strongest reactions.

We would have reacted just like the Palins.
Well -maybe not “just like”.
We may have resorted to vulgarities - but that’s why she’s a politician and I’m not :)

We've got to watch video of the Today show interview. Morning Joe just showed a clip and Sarah was GREAT! Matt Lauer tried to railroad her and she interrupted and smacked him appropriately. The rest has to be great, too.
