Letterman to Palin: Now that I’ve trashed your family, come on my show! (Video link added)

By Michelle Malkin  •  June 10, 2009 11:41 PM

It’s all a freaking game to dirty old David Letterman.

For shame.

Can you imagine him talking about the Obama daughters this way? Via EW, h/t Hot Air:

“We were, as we often do, making jokes about people in the news and we made some jokes about Sarah Palin and her daughter [Bristol]… and now they’re upset with me…” Letterman says on tonight’s show. “These are not jokes made about her 14-year-old daughter. I would never, never make jokes about raping or having sex of any description with a 14-year-old girl…. Am I guilty of poor taste? Yes. Did I suggest that it was okay for her 14-year-old daughter to be having promiscuous sex? No.” Saying he hopes he’s “cleared part of this up,” Letterman extended an invitation to Palin to come on the show as a guest.

Palin has one word for the attacks: “Pathetic.”

I would add:

Deranged.

Creepy.

Bigoted.

***

Will David Letterman teach his own son to talk about teenage girls the way he does?

***

Send CBS your feedback.

Update: RCPVideo has the clip of the non-apology.

    David Letterman has become a miserable and unhappy person. All he does is cut down people for the most part except for his liberal buddies. He is of the ilk that believes I have mine, but you are going to get yours.

    I have noticed he does not do his “Great Moments in Presidential Speeches” for Obama. He would have to show how much worse Obama is with his telepromter and Biden with his foot in his mouth, versus Bush making mistakes without the using the telepromter and/or the media trying to trip him up.

    But this is how you should have treated the Playboy situation. DEMAND that Hef come here to apologize. It would be MSM newsworthy and you’d get free pub if Hef would agree to do it because you pressured him. . . but I’m just a marketer at heart.

    For Republican children, it’s open season. Don’t you all remember what they did to the Bush girls shortly after GWB took office?

    But of course, it was hands off for Chelsea, and it still is — even though she’s what, almost 30 now? And of course, don’t even say anything about Obama’s girls, even though one of them is close to the same age as Willow, if not the same age.

    I think what Letterman did was vulgur, juvenile, and reminded me of jerks from high school. And look at them now, 30 years later…fat, bald and ugly (sorry, I digress).

    Tacky, classless and pathetic.

    I think Gov. Palin would be wise to use her famous line…”thanks, but no thanks”

    And for idiot Juan Williams to say on Fox that…”well, she took her children public at the convention” is no excuse. There is NO excuse to do that to anyone’s children, even if they are 18.

    Is that supposed to be a letterman apology?

    People hate Sarah Palin for only one reason, she personifies what they wish they could be or have, but never will because its too late for them. That is an intelligent, attractive, well-mannered woman who presents and carries herself with dignity.

    In short, it’s the green-eyed monster—jealously. And that speaks volumes about their small, petty little lives.

    I just wonder how hard the CBS lawyers are working overtime to figure out som eloophope in that bloated, ridiculous contract they signed with her. I bet that 5 years couldn’t come soon enough.

    Pike position anyone???

    When will people learn? The biggest reason newspapers and networks are failing is because of their vile, ultra left wing libtard agenda that no one is interested in hearing or seeing anymore.

    I think the people have spoken — enough is enough. Boston Globe go take a hike. No one will miss you. Same thing for all the rest of the liberal left wing worthless diatribe Obama-loving, butt kissing papers.

    I just sent an email to Letterman, or the feedback part on the site, telling them exactly what I think of this horrible, humorless, mean-spirited individual.

    He should be severely reprimanded by all WOMEN and MOTHERS, especially those on his network. Hopefully, he’ll lose alot of viewers, because he’s consistently gone after Sarah with a viciousness that I have rarely seen, and now he’s trashing children.

    I’m not buying the lame excuse that these people are “comedians” (like that Foxx person who trashed Miley Cyrus) so they should be given a pass. There is NO excuse for these so-called men to be speaking about women in such a manner.

    IMHO – Letterman is one of the most vulgar, disgusting, egotistical fools that G-d ever placed a camera on. He is dangerously close to being a pediphile(sp? – too late to spellcheck), and no amount of apologies or /wink/wink/I’ll get through this little set back somehow’ is going to work. Anyone that continues to view his show can stand accused of the same mindset.

    I said it earlier, and now again – Imus was fired for far less than this incident. Put the heat on this guy and make sure CBS cans his sewer mouth self.

    I remember when Letterman started out (his show was actually started out as a morning program) he was VERY funny. The stuff he had on was hilarious, and he didn’t do the ugly political crap that he does today. Even when his program went into the late nights (with NBC–after the Johnny Carson show), he still had the comedic edge, and I liked staying up and watching him.

    Now, all I see is a very angry, deeply hateful person, who has given up what he used to do to be a political tool. Frankly speaking, I can’t imagine anyone with a sense of humor or a brain spending any time watching this miserable person anymore. I believe I stopped watching him entirely since around the early 90’s.

    I agree. I have never liked Letterman and I stopped watching Tonight Show because they just will not stop trashing Bush. I know a certain amount of it is just presidential humor, but when I cannot turn on a late night show without hearing a Bush joke, it is way too much. Especially when he is gone. So, no more late night for me.
    I used to enjoy the evening news too. But, alas, no more biased crap for me. I even quit reading the newspapers. When will these people learn? Never. They would rather go down in flames still spewing biased, left wing one sided bs. If I want to be brainwashed, I will just move to North Korea.

    To be fair, I remember SNL doing some very tasteless jokes about Chelsea, of course it was back when SNL spoofed everyone, before they became an only republicans can be joked about show. I do remember though, they were kinda nasty about Chelsea, making jokes referring to her as ugly and an elitist. I thought it was very poor taste and completely classless to pick on a young girl. It was one of the reasons I became a Mad TV junkie on Saturday night. I agree though, today it is only a Republican and their families jokefest.

    My note on the Comments section of the CBS site (Thanks, Michelle, for the link):

    I do not believe the so-called “apology” offered by David Letterman on Wednesday’s show is sufficient. Sadly, the entire controversy is far too symbolic of the conservative-mocking, disdain-fueled bile that Mr. Letterman has been getting away with over the past several years. It is one thing if Mr. Letterman sees fit to berate in-person guests like Bill O’Reilly, who is more than capable of defending himself. But for Mr. Letterman to make the statements he did about Governor Palin and her 14 year old daughter (or any of Governor Palin’s daughters!) is beyond the pale. Further, his Top Ten List crack about Palin’s supposed “slutty flight attendant” look was completely uncalled for. May I remind CBS and Mr. Letterman how many brave flight attendants met their deaths on 9/11 – some, like Betty Ong, after calmly providing valuable details of the hijackings? Or that many people were saved in the emergency landing of a U.S. Air flight in the Hudson in part due to the heroic actions of 3 flight attendants? I, for one, would like to see more serious repercussions for Mr. Letterman following this week’s disgraceful slams, and it is my hope that many others will agree with me and vote with their televisions. I will not be back. Ever.

    Gee, I wonder if Entertainment Tonight will mention Letterman’s NON-apology today?

    My wife watched their show yesterday and had not yet checked any news online. When I brought up what Letterman said about Palin she said she already knew about “it” — about buying slutty flight attendant’s clothes at Bloomingdales.

    No wifey! I toldja to stop watching shows like that one. The “it” is NOT about Bloomingdales or sluts or flight attendants, “it” is about Letterman’s inference of statutory rape of Willow Palin by Axelrod.

    So how can ET mention this Letterman non-apology now when their ‘report’ yesterday was so totally off the mark about “it”?

    Will David Letterman teach his own son to talk about teenage girls the way he does?

    Would that be the son born out of wedlock to the old geezer and his girlfriend? Really, given the cesspool our culture has become (and to which Letterman has contributed), I have more understanding for an unwed teenage mother than a rich, commitment-phobic old guy having a kid out of marriage.

    People in glass houses might want to be a little careful with the words they throw around. But since Dave is a good liberal and (of course!) not the hypocritical type, I’m sure he won’t mind when some “comedian” with more anger than class starts telling “jokes” at the Letterman tyke’s expense.

    The entire left vs right outrage Olympics is, like, I mean SO high school.

    I have one question for the responsible human beings among us: how is your emergency storage and response resource management program coming along?

    While the Media Chimps hurl their fecal matter at us standing outside their cages, and we get all caught up in ducking and/or throwing it back, our Impostor in Chief is busy looting the Treasury (no one seems to know where the cash is going) and offering our Nation on a platter to Islam.

    Sarah Palin is a big girl and has a PR machine to handle the gap-toothed Dave.

    Let’s not pretend that our “outrage” at the obvious proclivities and character defects of a sociopathic lunatic who hangs with the likes of the Lounge Lizard Paul Shaffer (oh cool he’s from Vancoooooover) is actually accomplishing something.

    Letterman is following orders. And they come from the top. So be it. And it will continue. Even if Letterman were forced off the air, won’t CBS bring in another vampire to replace him with— who will do the same things? Letterman is right: “It’s what I do.”

    Are we not better off focusing our energies on whipping this vile and puss-filled foreign agent in our Body Politic by preparing for the conflagrations and disasters that foreign agent is driving us toward?

    Namely starvation of the American people and total war in Asia?

    David Letterman is headed to the dustbin of history where even the more highly skilled ones have ended up, as archival material on Public Television.

    Letterman sounds like a pedophile. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near my children. What he said was pretty disgusting.

    And why did he say it? Because he’s a far left loon and pretty much ignorant. And he hates conservatives with a passion.

    That and he’s sick and demented.

    The thing is, Letterman is so viciously private about his own personal life. I heard on the radio this morning that they (the morning show crew) interviewed a guy who worked with Letterman who didn’t know he got married until well after the fact!

    How many pictures of his wife and son have we really seen?

    Now, I think it’s his right to expect a healthy measure of privacy. Anyone should. And I’d be disgusted if someone made comments or threats about his son.

    Imagine how upset the left would be if someone on the right joked about anything like what Letterman said about Palin’s daughter happening to the Obama daughters.

    I really miss Johnny Carson!! I assume he was a “leftie”, but you would never have known it watching his show. He was just plain funny. Many of his jokes run through my mind to this day and I laugh all over again. Letterman, Conan O’brien (who is quite funny at times) and even Leno are very political on their shows now and I don’t watch any more. I tuned into Conan’s new show to see what it was like and had to turn it off when he almost immmediately made a stupid and very tasteless political joke. I guess they are too ignorant to realize they are alienating half the country who might otherwise be watching them. They are so wrapped up in their extreme ideology, they don’t care that their shows are not even being watched any more.

    Most who post here are well aware of both the viciousness and ignorance of the left – and Letterman is the perfect example of this premise.

    If CBS had any ethics, he would be gone now. I am sure that there are provisions in his contract regarding termination for cause, and his comments and behavior regarding Palin and her family are quite good reasons for exercising the termination clause.

    The sad part here is that this episode and likely conclusion reflects the continuing chaos associated with the destruction of any social and moral standards and provides the very reason for the rise in socialistic big government.

    I am pretty sure the country in general does not endorse nor is sympathetic to what Letterman said. Despite any applause or media coverage.

    Lets start a campaign to assign Letterman’s face to the DNC in the same way the left has attempted to assign Rush’s face to the RNC.

    Consider the source AND have you ever been inside the studios where these TV shows are taped? The audience in real life is quite small. On TV it looks like a ton of folks. That is a manipulation of what TV does. No its not one or two people. At the same time its not a big group either. In other words clapping from the type of people that would go to any of these shows is not indicative of much of anything. Other than maybe the applause sign went on.

    Of course, there have been more. But media participation in the escalation of attacks against women who QUESTION THE AUTHORITY of Islam and the AUTHORITY of our Islamic President is surely indicative of a concerted effort by the Govt-Media complex to squelch opposition.

    Perhaps that is because despite her intentions, whether she is acting “rightly” or not, she has violated her contract.

    Not judging her actions. I actually think she is doing the right thing. However there is a contract and that contract spells stuff out very specifically.

    This whole situation has harmed this franchise and Trump can not be too happy either way it turned out.

    At this point however it is not some witch hunt by the pro-gay movement. It is a simple legal issue. Let’s not make issues out of non-issues.
