How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Honestly.

That guy is warped. :blush

Palin was right, he IS a pervert.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Rush Limbaugh said about the same thing today talking about power relationships with staff and whats beyond the limits of 'ok' even in the professional world.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

What did Letterman do?

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Alleged to have had affairs with employees.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Obviously affairs are wrong and sinful...but is there more to the story than that?

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Some news guy was trying to extort money from Mr L.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Oh yeah! Someone was trying to blackmail him. :blah :blah :blah

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Thank you!!!

You can read about all the ones that supported him here! I, of course, never did! I agreed with Palin all along! :D

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Ewww.....his sense of humor leaves much to be desired. I can't imagine....uh....

Anyway, that's gross.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Is this the same Drug Poppin Rush?

Mr Dopehead himself?

:ursofunny

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

No, I was getting the impression that he (Letterman) may have been guilty of something far beyond an affair.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

So....is there more to it than affairs?

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

I couldn't find anything else. Though I think it ironic that someone who poked fun at politician's for affairs, is now admitting to some himself.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Actually I admire Rush for being honest about becoming addicted to pain killers to his national audience, taking 100% responsiblity for it, going to rehab, and staying clean.

If you've ever dealt with someone who got over a accident and was left with a addiction to Oxycotin you'd understand its not a recreational thing in that context, its a highly addictive medicine thats just as powerful as heroin and just as addictive.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

I agree and I love his radio program! :thumbsup

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Didn't Dave do the same thing by confessing his sin publicly and stopping a blackmailer? It was a decent and smart move.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Yes he made a joke out of it on national tv.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

You know what's creepy? Telling a story about having sex with your employees to people who LAUGH and APPLAUD

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

nothing more than many others in positions of authority (boss, teacher,pastor, politician, youth leader, etc) have been doing for years

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Except they don't go on national tv and make jokes about it, they have to at least pretend they are sorry.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Ah yes.... Rush is DIFFERENT. He's a great guy. Surprised that O'Reilly didn't weigh in. Oh, that's right, he sexually harrassed one of his staff members. But he's DIFFERENT too! I keep losing track of who gets excused..... :D

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

He curses too much for a holiness Christian to listen to!

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

They are saying tonight that Letterman MAY be in trouble now too, if any of these affairs prove to be coerced, and not consensual. It may be interesting.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

ok, go ahead and smack me upside the head right now before I even say what's on my mind.............

Here goes tho...................

The thought occured to me when I came on here tonight and saw this thread and that it was started by someone who is very conservative, how ironic it is that he seems to know all about this worldly trash. I had to read thru the thread to even try to figure out what in the world Letterman has done now. I must live with my head buried in the sand or something.

Ok, go ahead........ carry on. I'll back out now and head for bed.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

I don't watch Dave Letterman or the other late night stuff.
For a while I was watching the early parts of the Jay Leno late night show like his monologue, Jay walking, and the stuff about the goofy headlines and ads.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Here is the contact/feedback for CBS.

If you are complaining or commenting about Letterman's show, be sure to make the choice in "CHOOSE A CBS CATEGORY" of LATE NIGHT- "The Late Night Show with David Letterman"...Type your complaint or comment and hit Submit.

Maybe the "Fire David Letterman" movement should be revived...Or did it ever die? I don't watch him either but I made myself watch a clip of last night's show on a news website. The man should be given his "walking orders"...lol

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

It's been all over the news...

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Well...I'm sure he's not the first celebrity to have an affair--or multiple affairs. But add this to the Bristol gaffe and he may not have his job much longer. The double minded liberal/Puritanical media will only take so much corruption before they hang someone out to dry--to save their own skins.

It doesn't surprise me that he's a philanderer. :coffee2

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Its not that he slept around, its that he did it with people that are his employees. Thats a big bad sexual harassment lawsuit no-no area. Heck, companies dont even allow married couples to work in the same department or location most of the time. Its a business ethics issue that could come back to haunt Letterman.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

My sentiments exactly. People like Limbaugh who are caught with Viagra out of the country that isn't even prescribed to them, should really avoid throwing stones at other sinners.

I told someone today that Bill Clinton would have done well to take the route David Letterman took. Tell the truth, tell it all and then move on and deal with the effects of the sinful behavior.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

It is always interesting Mike that you claim to be so moderate yet I have never seen you defend a conservative cause nor a liberal one you wouldn't go to the mat for.
You justify the failure of liberals by pointing out the failure of a conservative who criticized him, and hold as true a statement about Bill O. that has never been proved. You are no moderate, your just a typical Democrat.

David Letterman went on the air and laughed about the fact that he manipulated and used his employees for his own sexual gratification. And standing next to him is MikeinAR defending him all the way.

The best policy is to come out with the facts rather than try a cover up, but to make a joke out of it shows a lack of decency. Bet it wouldn't be so funny if it was your daughter who had been used by Letterman, tossed to the side, and then have him joke about it on national TV. Disgraceful.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Where exactly have you gotten all of your confirmed facts on this situation Baron? I know you don't like Letterman and are in a major rush to judgment on all of the pertaining facts, but how about we let the real facts come out about exactly what happened before you start using words like manipulated, used, and tossed to the side.

Surely, you're not saying that every adulterous affair is the fault of the man involved are you? Do we really know how the relationship began and that the woman was the "victim" you're trying to portray her to be? There were two people involved and more than likely two sets of wrong decisions made.

Just because you don't like the guy doesn't meant that those gigantic leaps you've made are actually factual.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Nice side step. However, thanks for proving my point. MikeinAR defender of adultery (unless the the perpetrator is conservative). If we were talking about one affair maybe not, but when it is multiple and they are your employees their is a disdain for them. I stand by my assessment, and you can stand beside your pervert buddy Letterman.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

Obviously, I am never in favor of affairs, but I think it is a stretch to assume that he manipulated and used the people he was with. He ended up marrying somebody that he worked with and dated another for quite some time. The women themselves are not the ones who came out and said he had done anything wrong or manipulative to them. As a matter of fact, the guy who broke the story dated one of the women after Letterman and he used and betrayed her in order to break the story. She is mad at him...not Letterman.

When reading the posts, I just assumed that there was something far worse here than what has unfortunately become a "run of the mill" affair.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

I think that people are generally offended because Letterman has used his show to bash people when his own life is not coming up clean.

And as Baron said - joking about it.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

I'm just wondering how you came to that assessment is all, Baron. You've made strong allegations that the woman involved was "manipulated", "used", and "tossed aside" and I'm just wondering where you came up with all of that.

You obviously have information that the rest of the general public doesn't.

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

I guess I'm weird too, for not being shocked--or even overly offended.

I expect immoral behavior from the secular world, first and foremost. Secondly, unless these women are claiming sexual harassment, I'm really not all that interested.

Dave's just another normal man--without self-control. Surprise, surprise. LOL!!!!

Now, if the female staffers add to the story? Then you'll all have something to talk about. Right now you're just surmising and trying to create scandal where there isn't a lot of it.

The real scandal is that some idiot tried to blackmail him, so DL did the smart thing and outed him.

And the joke, btw, was FUNNY. He's a big nerd, and so he was saying self-deprecatingly, "Yes, even I had sex." And went so far as to say it would be the women who would be embarrassed by having the general public know they had sex with David Letterman.

Forgive me for not being shocked--or even appalled. :rolleyes2 I've known people in the church who've done a LOT worse. You guys want to hang DL out to dry because he had sex with female staffers? Are you kidding? Men (and women) do that all the time. Unethical or not, dating and having affairs in the workplace is VERY common.

This is simply less shocking when it comes from someone who never claimed to be a paragon of virtue in the first place. I'm not a big DL fan, although he IS funny sometimes. I just don't really care, anymore than I cared that Clinton had an affair with Monica Lewinsky. I expect depraved behavior from immoral people. I expect a lack of good taste from people who have no moral compass. I already knew DL wasn't a moral, ultra-classy guy--so again...where's the surprise here?

Re: How Low Can Letterman go?
 

This reminds me of something Bro. Don Johnson was alleged to have said one time...a woman requested prayer for her daughter, saying that some man had "ran off with her daughter." Bro. Johnson said, "Well, your daughter ran off with that man, too." :toofunny
