Re: Palin Furious At Letterman.
PO, if I ever cross you, remind me not to waste my breath apologizing.

You have to apologize or you will go to hell.

I do forgive her already for being quick to jump on an argument with me!

I'll just apologize to God. He's the only one who will forgive me!!!!
Look, I think he lied about researching the girl's age--that was lame. But he's not an idiot, at least, not in the sense of being self-destructive. There are certain lines you just don't cross, and I agree with Renda--he just read the joke, without knowing the 14 year old was in town, instead of Bristol.
Do you think he personally sits down and writes his own material every day? He probably gives it a quick scan after it's handed to him, and goes with it!
Negligent and crass he is, but stupid and a perverted pedophile?--I don't think so. And he did backtrack. So I think it's worth getting over. If Bristol's mother can get over it, you can, too.

I'll have to get back with you, Abby. My daughter is giving me a Bible lesson on I Cor 11 over the phone and she said if I don't listen she will hang up!

You don't have to get back with me. I wouldn't mind having the last word--for once.

Agreed!!! - He lied and that he's not an idiot.
He lied - I also believe he lied about checking her age, I also believe he lied in who he was referring to. He said, "Her daughter". He could have said, "Her oldest daughter".
He's not an idiot - I also agree with that. He has enough experience to know that he should be careful and because he has to check and approve his script. He keeps up with the news. That is how he is good at his job. Therefore, he would have known that Bristol wasn't with the Palins - it was Willow.
THAT is WHY the storm was still brewing and WHY - ONE WEEK LATER - he knows he has to own up to it, ante up and try to get out of it. They are very professional at what they do and know just how to skirt the issue enough to get the cat off the hot tin roof - that's showbiz, baby!

He has to read his script ahead of time to be familiar with it and also to approve of it. Logically, he isn't going to run a show very smooth if he runs over the script right before the show. He has to be comfortable with it and not just read a teleprompter.
Do YOU think he sits at his desk with his feet up all day? No, he doesn't. They knock around ideas and sometimes he improvises. That is his talent.
The President has writers for his speeches as well. He goes over the speeches and changes the things he wants changed and keeps the wording he agrees with. Not much different than a night show.
And, NO, I have never and will never watch Letterman. He's a repulsive piece of work. I've seen enough news clips to gather that much.

His comments were in the "perverted pedophile" corner. Guilt by association. We have enough trash going on against young women in this country for Letterman to jump on the bandwagon. Bad form, Letterman - you pervert! He must be related to Snoop Dog! The brutha from anutha mutha!
