David Letterman has had a grand ol’ time insulting Sarah Palin lately. You can see the David Letterman Sarah Palin insult videos below.
I’ve never particularly thought David Letterman was funny. He just has never appealed to me. I’ve always thought his jokes seemed more mean-spirited than funny, regardless of what he’s joking about. He also seemed to me to think his own jokes were much funnier than anyone else thinks they are.
All of that seems to have gotten a lot worse lately. Or maybe its just irritating me more. He just seems like an old man who makes jokes in the vein of an adolescent bully on the playground.
He’s been on a roll about Sarah Palin since her recent trip to New York in support of causes related to finding a cure for autism and honoring William Seward, the former secretary of state who bought Alaska from Russia. First, he had her in his Top 10 list. Among the ‘jokes’ in his list was a comment about her ‘Slutty Flight Attendant look’. He’s calling the Governor of Alaska a ’slut’? That’s pretty low-down and low-class, not to mention misogynistic.
It gets worse though. In the monologue, he goes after Palin’s 14-year-old daughter, Willow Palin. He ‘jokes’ about her going to the Yankees’ game with her mother and Rudy and Judith Giuliani. His joke has to do with Sarah Palin’s minor daughter getting ‘raped’ and ‘knocked up’ by Alex Rodriguez during the game.
The leftists have had no problem attacking Sarah Palin’s entire family (including her very young children) since she came into the national spotlight. Can you imagine if the media went after Sasha or Malia Obama the same way they have gone after all of Palin’s children? They have reported lies as fact about Palin, her husband and all of her children. Its unprecedented, irresponsible, mean-spirited and disgusting.
I really don’t think David Letterman has a lot of room to talk about ‘class’. This is a guy who ‘knocked-up’ his long time live in girlfriend when he was in his 60s and waited about six or eight years to marry the mother of his son. He caters to the hollywood elite and would never bite the hands that feed him. But he has no qualms about going after Governors who have worked their way up the latter of success. I guess strong women who are also attractive are pretty threatening to the liberal left.
Here are the videos of the David Letterman Sarah Palin insult, if you want to see them.

When exactly did David Letterman use the word “rape”? I think it’s obvious he was referring to Palin’s other daughter having been “knocked up” at such a young age and that the trend might be a family trait. All in jest of course. Palin is an idiot and that’s why she’s such an easy target.

I think that when people hear jokes or so-called jokes about a daughter of Sarah Palin being “knocked up” they assume the “jokes” are about the daughter who was, in fact, “knocked up.” Perhaps young women–one used to call them young ladies–will re-consider their actions if they understand that, even in the liberal times we live in, fornicating will still ruin their reputations and subject themselves and their families to ridicule. Mr. Palin and the Old Retired Seadogs of this world would better spend their time guarding the precious virtue of their daughters than posturing about remarks–even crude ones–that result from their failure to have done so.

So its okay for Letterman to make this joke about Palin’s older daughter? That’s really reaching for justification of vicious nastiness toward women and girls.

If Letterman publicly insulted my wife and daughter I would be headed to his location and give him a well deserved “Ass Whooping”. Even if he is a feeble minded old man. If you are going to run your mouth you should be able to back it up. Guys like him don’t have the “Balls” to defend their actions, they hide behind their so called fame. FU Dave!

It does not matter if he was talking about the 14-year-old or the 18-year-old. It is all inappropriate, and if someone said something like that about my child, I would see to it that he was fired and/or castrated. But it’s not like the castration would do anything anyway, since he is so old! Why do people mindlessly follow the liberals? It’s like some stupid trend- people do it, but they don’t know why- they just do it because everyone else is. Well it’s good to know that Sarah Palin still has a brain in her head and can think for herself. She is a good role model.

Hey republicans you lost the election big time. Quit whining and get over it. You are defending the party that wrecked this country. It will be a long long long time before the political candidates you hype will ever be elected to high office. Take a look at who you are and what you have done to this country. Quit trying to elevate third rate politicians. This country is tired of your failed ideas.

Ruth - you are so right. It seems like the left just mindlessly repeats the talking points that are put out there. They so blatantly manipulate the news and the facts that its hard to believe that people don’t see through it. I think a lot of them are afraid of thinking independently, they don’t have enough self-esteem to stand on their own. They want to be accepted by the ‘in’ crowd.
richard - since the left ‘won’ - then why do they keep acting like victims? They are in charge of things, and things are falling apart so fast it makes our heads spin. But still, the left acts like victims. Its mindboggling really. I suppose its gone past your notice that our enemies are lining up against us, the economy is going in the toilet, job losses are at all time highs, the national debt has reached all time highs, etc - all since Obama took office. Who is causing problems for this country? Surely, you realize that Bush is not in office and dems have been in control of Congress since 2006 - at what point will dems take responsibility for their own destructive actions?

Letteman: What a cowardly thing to say you pathetic little toady. I will jot down your advertisers and do what I can to boycott all of their products. And to Governor Palin: This is easier said than done - When a piece of trash insults you then that can be a sign that you are doing something right and good. I hope that you will not become too distraught.

I met a man in an Arkansas hospital waiting area from Walesa, Alaska. He said he knows and admires the Palin family. They are human and are subject to the same temptations that we are. He gave me many examples of Sarah Palin’s positive handling of civic issues, both in Walesa and in the state. He assured me she’d make a good president. She certainly would move into the White House with more evidence of leadership and accomplishments than President Barack Hussein Obama. Her list of achievements and qualifications makes his look very weak.
I am not yet a Sarah for President enthusiast; might be later. Who knows who will run!

Chattyb, it is spelled Wasilla not Walesa. Please use the correct spelling. Unfortunately, you weren’t able to speak to any of the women in ‘Wasilla’ who palin made pay for their own rape kits, victimizing them even worse they already had been. Please read what is available to you on her record, there are several reputable discussions out there on the internet. Opportunists do not make good or reasonable political leaders. To all you haters of ‘liberals’ or ‘media’ or anything different then your own conservative ideals. We have a president, you may not like him, but your energy should be spent on helping your elected officials understand the will of the people in a peaceful non-violent way. Not in this rabble-rousing vitriol that you are indulging yourselves in. This is not productive. If you would take of your 3-D eyewear at look at our president, you will see that he is far more centrist and moderate than he is liberal. Please give him a chance to help our country, please work for the greater good and not for good of one opportunistic figure head. This whole letterman argument is simple part of the smoke and mirrors that are used to blind you. It is personal disagreement between the family who was insulted and the person who insulted them, it is really none of our business. It shouldn’t be held in public view. I am certain, that there is not one of you hasn’t used or heard from your elders, that we don’t air our dirty laundry.
