I thought Letterman had hung it up and retired. Geeez. I just can’t keep up with pop culture anymore.

The more he talks, the less the public likes the plan.

Geez, even the Washington Post’s polls are showing that.

So Obama ‘s now the new Larry ‘Bud’ Melman.
Maybe Letterman will have him passing out towels at Grand Central Station.

> Obama has appeared on Letterman’s show five times before, the last during the campaign in September 2008

FIVE times and Letterman being a libtard stooge himself is not sick of him..amazing.

I cannot even watch Leno at 10:00 PM because it is past my bedtime.
Who's is going to watch Letterman on a late Mon. night?
People who don't work!
They are already Obama sycophants.
There will be nothing gained by this.
Obama is trying to survive politically. This smacks of desperation.

Somebody should be attacking him about the economy...

from what I understand there is no evidence of job growth, (it is still declining) and someone has the nerve to mention that GDP is up? Can someone help me with this lie?
Hotels and motels are still declining. To me these are the leading indicators of expansion and activity....rental accommodation. Question: Which community economy is doing good? As far as I am aware every one is still backwards....

And he wants to increase debt????

Jack taxes????

Redistribute???

Letterman ceased being funny 10 years ago, but really became obnoxious in the last 8 years of GW Bush, and completely lost it during his palpatations & swooning for 0bozo, and his hatred for Sarah Palin. I hope his show goes very quickly down the tank. Fortunately I discontinued Direct TV 5 months ago and have not looked back since.

Pat Paulsen’s presidential campaign slogan:

“I’ve upped my standards. Now, up yours.”

Gresham’s Law - bad currency pushes out the good. So it is that Obama is inflating the dollar and tiring the public with his incessant appearances.

Well, three and one half years to go and counting ....

Nobody watches Letterman any more, so why worry.

Letterman “hung it up and retired” somewhere in the early ‘90s, didn’t he?

Somehow zer0bama and Letterman seem like the perfect match; they’re both jerks. No wonder Sarah Palin can’t stand Letterman, she gets better press by not being on his show.

No he is king of late night now. He is killing the competition now unfortunately.
