She should thank Letterman for keeping her in the spotlight. If you ask me her and her husband are pretty creepy.
Good bye Letterman…you are a shame and a sham – there NEVER is a place for political(yes, this is POLITICAL) attack on a public figure and more importantly a chil and a family- this is shameful and disgusting. Hang it up Letterman, fire your disgusting “flash for news” writers- and most likely go away- to your family. And my you and them be treated in exactly the same manner you have treated the Palin family-
Where is your conscience? Where is your base of moral conduct and a standard for NOT selling your soul to a rating machine or a writers guild-
You were and are wrong and your apology was inappropriate and child like.
Come on people. It’s a joke and wasn’t even crude. Her daughter got knocked up while in high school and A-Rod has fidelity issues. It was funny.
Dave is a bitter hateful sexist liberal. You’re out of touch Dave! No wonder Jay Leno kicks your ass every night.
David Letterman used to be one of the most creative, funny people on TV – now he resorts to disgusting rape “jokes” about a teenage girl – ridiculing and destroying her before millions of viewers. Then he attacks the Governor of Alaska as a slutty stewardess-type who smokes crack. This is the kind of crude garbage that passes for TV humor in 2009.
you are thinking of boycotting letterman’s sponsors? well Conan made a joke about masturbating and said the word over and over last nite, i guess he is going to hell when he dies too? Oh he already knows that, he use to sing that song on his 12:30am show and I love that someone commented Dave’s wife produced a bastard son for Dave, I think she was in her late 30′s when she did that, and Mr Mel Gibson is now with a woman producing his bastard child while still married to his wife who gave him 7 or 8 legitimate children and is one of the most conservative religious people out there….and then there is Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich who love to demand people follow the conservative value movement, and we all know what drugs and adultery and divorce has done for them….let he who is without sin cast the first stone…when does it end….live and let live you puritans
OMG. This joke is so tame compared to what I hear in the comedy clubs. Do you people live in a bubble? Comedy is crude and if you are offended then don’t watch it or listen to it.
Wow you guys have to learn to relax. These are jokes. You might want to just watch the religious channels. God bless America for giving us the freedom to speak. So shut your ears if you can’t take a joke!!
Why is the headline “conservative women’s group”? Be consistent. If it was about the National Organization of Women, would you write “Liberal women’s group”? Of course not.
Just In!
Dave says “Palin offered to take Dave hunting” This joke was actually Dave trying to incite a real murder! Call the cops! Stay away from Letterman he is a threat to civilization! Amen, Believe, brothers and sisters!
“biblical values and family traditions,”
It’s really too bad that Bristol Palin is an unwed whore. Otherwise, she might actually fit into the above description.
Please delete the comment by Joe in Philly. He is calling for the murder of thousands of Americans.
People like funny jokes. Even the old hags laughed but then they like to pretend that they are better than everyone else.
Old hags — get a life before you go to your graves with a frown on your haggarded faces.
So many apologists for a pig of a man who feel it is socially acceptable to attack a child of a political rival. I don’t care which child either whether it is the 14 year old or the 18 year old. This is what is really wrong with liberals they are hate mongers and when they can’t deal with successful conservative women, they take cheap sick shots at their children. Tacky at best and potentially perverted at worst but then this is a hollywood lib.
What thoroughly confuses me is why so many people thing this abysmal behavior is OK.
Old hags can’t take a joke without getting upset. They take everything so personal.
