Letterman is pissed at McCain for cancelling on his show.

[nick451]

My skin crawls when i see this half man ,half toad. David Letterman. He is not worthy of a name. He should have "asshole" ,tattooed on his forehead.

CBS is loaded with shit programming. They better stick with football ,or nobody would watch their trash network.

[MaximusPrime47]

[cobraman96]

Let me guess,You're a lil boy who still plays video games in his mom's basement at the age of 25?

[MikoWilson]

Is that really the best that you have . . . so you`re a severely unimaginative 45 year old. I guess that comes with age.

I play video games, it`s my generation new media. Do you still listen to 8tracks and vinyl records . . . lol.

Idiot. Go take your vitamins and have a nap.

[cobraman96]

Fantasy world lil boy,thats what you live in.Your 25 and still play games like a child.What ajoke you are.I bet your daddy ran off to get away from your stupid ass.

[Skip0hsa]

I will never cross this dude

[cobraman96]

[dubbyrankin]

john mccain keeps forgetting to take his medication, his daughter Cindy should see to that

[poopsterme]

lol are u joking daughter?? well they look life father and daughter

[kcphaid]

Geee Letterman should be the most important thing huh? Hmmmmm Seems like he had his priorities. Letterman is shadow of hid former self. Now we see why Leno got the seat and not dave.

[starrynightuk]

waaaaaaaaa

[Chubachus]

leno is so much better. the only thing that saved this segment was a live unprepared mccain

[srv0709]

letterman has lost all credibility..thus why leno is whipping his butt!

[starrynightuk]

get ready to lose

[bluehoneycomb]

Right, if he's stopping his campaign for this fannie mae/freddie mac thing (BTW, the CEO of his campaign still receives money from freddie mac) will he suspend being president if another "crisis" arises?

Google Rick Davis (political lobbyist).

[lonewolf7471]

♫ ♫ ♫ ♫ Vote "None of the above". ♫ ♫ ♫ ♫

[AngeliaClaire]

oh cant get enough of Rosie and Donald? Have Letterman EXPLAIN WHY HE WILL NOT Marry!!!!!

[bigkilla287]

vote KoRn for president, KoRn 08 baby!!! lock it up.

[Chubachus]

korn blows! i would vote for red hot chil peppers tho

[bigkilla287]

haha i laugh at such ignorance. letterman is god my friend he is god.

[Chubachus]

you dont know what true comedy is, true comedy my friend. i shat on your "god"

[GodsFavoriteChick]

Dont let John McCain be America's Next Mistake. Obama 08

[buntik1687]

Just McCain crash his plane thinking he was going to get a ride home. He never fired a damn bullet in Vietnam.

I notice he only change his positions just before he ran for president. What a damn joke. Look at his before and now stance on Iraq, Immigration, Walter Reid Scandal and many other issues. He is like Joe LIE ER MAN! A one time Democrat Now independent and soon to be a Republican. Hahaha! Try saying that without biting your tongue. Hehehe!

[needabrainupgrade]

Katie Curic: Liberal Media at its best.

[vmkSAVAGEGUY]

FUCK DAVID LETTERMAN!

[skeester63]

What a tantrum! And he gets pissy when McCain goes on the REAL news to explain instead of his late night show. Keep it up Letterman, you'll need another heart operation at this rate.

[SirWinstonChurchill]

Fuck that old faggot Letterman...

[Thtgrlspsn]

... and lets not forget he didn't leave for Washington until the NEXT morning.

[colorheartedgirl]

@Thtgrlspsn so what who want to be on lettermans show anyways.. and look who our president is. way worse than mccain

[jkdsifu]

If your good friend did this to you, as in lie to you about having to leave town in a hurry because of an important issue, then you find him comfortably getting his hair done down the street, you'd be pissed too. It's called having honesty, integrity, and respect for other people. McCain shows clearly here that he doesn't have any of those qualities. He'd just as soon lie to you as breathe. it's natural to him. No way a president!

Obama Biden 08!

[colorheartedgirl]

@jkdsifu ahahahah youre funy.. you think obama has honesty and integrity!!?!?!? WOW you are blind

[bistokna70]

John McCain you full of shit!! John McCain you a fucking liar!! John McCain you are an embarassment for the conservatives!!! Go home John McCain, go home and die!! Fuck head!!

[astephensiii]

Go Obama! Thanks David!!! Also you all should check out the clip "champion of the stick." Go Obama!

[MoMeesa7]

Thx291 -

#1 McCain doesn't sit on any important committees relevant to what was being done in D.C

#2 McCain had 26 years to step in and do something about this bfore the taxpayer ended up footing the bill. He not only did nothing, he helped with his deregulation

#3 A president has to be able to handle multiple crises at once. What, is he going to ask Putin for a postponement when he's got to deal with Kim Jung Il?

[yserrant]

McCain lied to him, and the nation, REPEATEDLY.

He deserved it.

[enjoyitbro]

damn letterman what an egomaniac little bitch you are, seriously Leno would have understood

[abut]

Dude? He blatantly lied to the dude. He wasn't like "Yeah, CBS news is more important." He said he was going back to Washington. And how did Mccain think he was going to get away with that. If your good friend said, last Min., he couldn't meet you somewhere to take care of something important, then he goes to another friend's house, wouldn't you be just a little pissed? I mean, just a little?

[MikoWilson]

Unfortunately Leno is a complete sell-out hack.

[cobraman96]

And your a complete tool!

[Thtgrlspsn]

It just looks very bad because he cancelled one show for an "emergency" and ended up on another show. It's the equivalent of breaking a date because you were "sick" and then the date finding you party-heartying it up at a club.

[thx291]

Thtgrlspsn,

He appeared on the CBS EVENING NEWS; a straight news show in order to be interviewed about the crisis. That's entirely different from appearing on a comedic celebrity formatted, late night talk show.

Apparently Letterman believes his dopey program is on par with the CBS Evening News.

[Thtgrlspsn]

I understand that, but the excuse he gave was going to Washington to solve the crisis not "I'm going to go to a real news show because I need to speak on the economy"

I think he's more upset about the lie.

[thx291]

And he is going to Washington however before leaving he did an interview for a major media outlet on this economic catastrophe. That's where his priorities should be not joking around with Letterman.

[Thtgrlspsn]

The priority, if he really cares, should be getting to Washington as soon as is humanly possible to broker the deal that helps the taxpayers first get out of this mess. When did the tides change so that an interview, even with a "credible" news source, be a part of getting things done?

You do the interview AFTER you've worked out a plan, not before where you just spout the same "Crisis mode there needs to be a plan" stuff. That is why it looks like more of a gimmick to me than anything else.

[thx291]

Um..McCain suspended his campaign so he COULD clear his schedule and go back to Washington to help resolve the crisis.

It would be completely inapproriate for him to be laughing it up with Letterman right now. However before he leaves there is no reason why he can't do an interview on a major media outlet to talk about the crisis.

The only people who are going to whine about this Letterman issue are the partisan and ideological hacks.

[Thtgrlspsn]

I have a real question. What can he really do there? He's not on any of the committees that will or can really make a difference. The only difference he can make at this time is his vote.

[thx291]

Given the problems that this bailout is running into, every vote is critical.

The real question is this; what's more important? Appearing on the CBS Evening News to address the crisis and then going to Washington to vote on the bailout to help the economy on the brink of disaster or chuckling it up with Letterman?

Seems like the answer would be common sense. I expected the partisans to spin this against McCain but I'm surprised by how big an ego-maniac David Letterman is.

[XXSK5]

THX291 HE DIDN'T GO TO WASHINGTON TO VOTE!!! There's no vote being held yet. When there is, both Obama and McCain will be there. He went to Washington to look like a hero and it's only going to backfire because most of us are smart enough to see that there's nothing he can do there until the bailout is actually up for voting. It's just a poor attempt by McCain to stem his profound losses in the polls.

[thx291]

XXSK5 I UNDERSTAND THAT but this has to be resolved very quickly before congress adjourns. So therefore McCain's priorities are in Washington...as opposed to Obama's "oh I'm busy...call me when you need me."

I agree McCain shouldn't have delayed the debate but he was absolutely correct to talk to Katie Couric and not appear on Letterman.

[XXSK5]

Well at least you agree about the debate...but still, there's no priorities in Washington for McCain right now. He can't do anything until the bill us up for voting, so he's wasting his time. If he were on the joint economic committee, then he'd have a reason to go to Washington.

[thx291]

There's been resistance to the bailout in Washington among some Republicans. McCain could go to Washington and have meetings with the other Republican congressmen and shore up support for the bailout plan.

This notion that there's nothing for a US Senator to do in Washington during a historic moment when congress is proposing a 700 billion dollar bailout is ridiculous.

[XXSK5]

I think the notion that you suspend your campaign and force a postponement of the most important debate yet is even more ridiculous. The is the most important election in a LONG LONG LONG time. We don't have time for someone trying to play politics with a financial crisis. He could've sent Palin to Washington to meet with people.

[thx291]

This is an important election however what is happening this week is more important and has almost completely eclipsed the presidential race.

We're not talking about postponing the entire damn election, just the campaign for a few days during a historic crisis and a financial meltdown. It would seem like the right thing to do.

[yserrant]

He LIED and said he was going to Washginton and DID NOT. He went on Katie Couric.

I can't believe that he can't go to the debate, nor go on Letterman. He's a liar.

[yserrant]

But he didn't go until TODAY. He lied and said it was so urgent he was leaving immediately, and then went on another show. He's lying, stop trying to search for support.

[thx291]

He said he was going to Washington and he DID go to Washington. He did an interview with Katie Couric before he left because talking to a major media outlet about a major news story is more important than appearing an a lighthearted celebrity talk show.

Again, this is common sense.

[XXSK5]

Well apparently, this trip didn't do him any good. Some of the financial services committee members (both democratic and republican) just held a press meeting saying they've come to an agreement. McCain has only been there for an hour, so he didn't do anything to get a consensus. He should've listened to them yesterday when they said they didn't need him there and that they were getting close to an agreement.

[thx291]

I'm glad they came to an agreement but it doesn't change the Letterman issue. Yesterday the story was that there was disagreement and resistance to the bailout plan.

So regardless, McCain doing the CBS News interview and going to Washington was still more important than going on Letterman.

[crazybiscut]

Ok maybe the CBS news was more important, but its not about that. Its about keeping a promise, u just dont tell people 'i have to go now' but then pop up on another show. Even you wouldnt like it if thats your show.

[tgear77]

thx291, its not about CBS News or Letterman as if he could only do one. It's about lying to Letterman, someone who has done right by him in the past (did you forget that McCain announced that he was running for President on Letterman's show last year?) He told Letterman he had to cancel in order to rush to Washington. Then he did the News, which he could have just told Dave he needed to do given the situation. Then he stayed in a hotel that night, spoke at an event in the morning,then flew to DC

[yserrant]

He could have just as easily canceled on Letterman without LYING and saying he was going to handle this CRISIS.

He LIED and used the economy as an excuse. Sounds like a very fine president.

[XXSK5]

Haha yea thx291 you keep telling yourself that. Neither him 'nor Obama can do shit about this crisis. Neither of them serve on financial committees, and last I heard, those are the people who are actually creating the bill that Congress will vote on. Like Obama said, if they need him there to vote or for some other reason, they can call him in, otherwise it does no good for Obama or McCain to go to Washington. It was a hail mary pass by McCain and it's about to be intercepted by Obama!

[thx291]

XXSK5,

That's a brilliant point. And we all know that when Obama withdrew from "Saturday Night Live" it certainly helped the Hurrican Ike situation. The weather immediately cleared and the sun came out.

[XXSK5]

TXH291, Obama also didn't run down to Texas to try to look like a hero...He also didn't suspend his campaign and try to get debates postponed. Give it up. McCain is sinking faster than the Titanic.

[meghansell]

If going to Washington was a major priority, why didn't Obama go?

[thx291]

You can argue about whether postponing the debate for a few days was right or not but what is BIG DEAL in not appearing on Letterman???

We are in the midst of an unprecedented financial disaster, Barack Obama didn't appear on SNL because of Hurrican Ike and yet this ASSCLOWN Letterman is whining because McCain doesn't appear on his show?? A show which incidentally has been resting on its laurels and hasn't been funny in years.

Letterman is a has been whiny douche.

[Guzmanboys]

yea and where is he not helping the senate he's to busy an another show.

[RealPundits]

What did you think? Post a video response to the Realpundits website

[undorado]

I wonder if McCain made on time to Washington... Thank you Letterman, you did a nice clean pickup on McCain.

[Michthemitch]

OBAMA -08- BIDEN

[VanadiusRex]

It's one thing to stiff Letterman - and something else to stiff the American people by going AWOL from the debate. Now that will REALLY smell like hell.

[sashaqueenie]

"This doesn't smell right," Letterman said. "This is not the way a tested hero behaves. Somebody's putting something in his Metamucil."
