I normally like Letterman, but his syncophancy disgusted me that night, as did Clinton, with his smarmy "blow" jokes on 9/11 and his attempts to claim he'd done so much to stop Osama, even holding three meetings a week to discuss him. Really? Is that why he turned down the offer from Sudan to take him on a silver platter, and why he met with his own CIA chief ONE time in eight years, far fewer times than he met with Monica?
Every time I see that preening, conscienceless egomaniac getting cheers, applause and standing ovations from a New York audience, like he did on "Late Night," I just want to scream at those New Yorkers, "You damned IDIOTS! This is the guy whose dereliction of duty CAUSED that smoking hole where the WTC used to be! If he'd done his job, your friends and relatives would still be alive, and you're applauding him! Are you absolutely insane?!"
Thanks, all of you, for the Letterman commentary. I missed it all -- I was on vacation.
New York seems to act like an abused wife/girlfriend that just can't seem to get out the relationship. And Clinton the abuser.
