David Letterman is a coward

David Letterman, what a piece of work he is. You’ve no doubt heard about his latest lame attempt at humor, this one involving Willow Palin, the 14 year-old daughter of Sarah Palin. Sarah and Willow Palin recently attend a New York Yankees game. In his monologue, Letterman, after saying Sarah Palin has a “slutty flight attendant look”, went on to say about the game that “….in the seventh inning Alex Rodriguez knocked up Palin’s daughter”. Instead of apologizing for his blatant sexual remark concerning the 14 year-old Letterman said “I thought it was the other daughter, the 18 year-old”, like this somehow justifies and makes his remark okay??

It is not okay on several levels. First off, only a dirty old man with his mind firmly planted in the gutter would make such a comment about someone in their teens. I don’t care if he was talking about 18 year-old Bristol Palin or 14 year-old Willow, his remarks were classless and uncalled for. It’s no secret that Letterman cannot stand Sarah Palin because they are on opposite sides of the political spectrum. She is on the right side and he is on the wrong side. Only a spineless, gutless coward will verbally attack the children of an adult he disagrees so strongly with.

I personally think he went after the Palin kids because he knows if he were to get into a verbal sparring match with their mom he would go down in flames. He is no match for Sarah Palin. She has more class, honor, integrity, and dignity in the tip of her little finger than Letterman has in his entire body. Not to mention a much greater level of intellect and intelligence. And he knows this. That’s why he goes after the kids. He and others in Hollywood and the government controlled media. He also attacks the kids because he knows Sarah Palin has way too much class and is way too busy to waste her time getting into a battle of wits with a clearly unarmed man.

His remarks are even more revolting in light of the fact that he has an illegitimate child by a 19 year-old who he, to use his own words, “knocked up”. He has no right to comment on anyone else’s (Bristol Palin's) mistakes or bad judgment. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. Forrest Gump once said "stupid is as stupid does". He was talking about David Letterman.

What's just as sad is Letterman and some of the other morons in his audience actually thought his remark was funny. Sexual comments made about a 14 year-old are only funny to the most vile and twisted among us. What does this tell us about Letterman and his fans then? Not anything good, that's for sure. The Bible tells us in Luke 6: 45 that "....out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks". That doesn't put Letterman in a very flattering light. Of course, he has never stuck me as the type to care what the Bible says anyway.

In typical liberally biased media fashion, it is Sarah Palin who is being made out to look like the bad guy in this situation. Letterman apparently offered her and Willow a chance to come on his show to which she responded “I don’t want my daughter anywhere near that man”. I don’t blame her. He got a 19 year-old pregnant, what’s to stop him from going after a 14 year-old? Palin is said to be “overreacting” with her “unfair” comments about Letterman. HER unfair comments?? What about his? She was being totally fair. He on the other hand was being king-sized jerk.

Todd Palin, Sarah’s husband and Willow’s dad, called Letterman a “pervert” after his remarks. He too now is being vilified. I guess the reason he is being vilified is because he was right on target and the truth hurts. Only a pervert would make a comment like the one Letterman made, and only a bigger pervert would stand up and support him and his comments and think it is okay to say what Letterman said. I hope Letterman’s piece of crap excuse for a television show loses a lot of viewers and CBS too if they back him up on this. It would serve them both right.
