It was not funny I hope all men who think this is funny about either daughter of any girl for that matter never have to worry about people cracking jokes about their daughters...God gets even in mysterious ways
Speaking expert? Get a fucking like you dumb shit. If letterman was so smart, he would have said bristol's name in the joke. INSTEAD he didn't and talked about pailin's daughter at the game....and the 14 year old was the only daughter there. It was in bad taste and everyone knows it except dumb ass libs who are brainwashed by the liberal media. And dont forget libs...Obama's mother had him at 18! So you cant jump on bristol without making fun of your messiah's mother
He wasn't talking about the 14 year old. No reasonable person would assume that given Bristol's history and the way Palin made her a national story to serve her own ambition. And now she's twisting his words around to keep herself in the spotlight and boost fundraising.
Either way it is very uncool to make fun of a politicians kids. You can attack the politician (even if that in my opinion is wrong) but never the politicians children for political gain.
And to keep things even, let's remember the Republicans (Rush and McCain specifically) have done much worse. But in this case we're talking about a comedian who's known for bad taste for the past 30 years, and has admit the same of this joke. The only person using this for political gain right now is Palin herself.
12 year old girl? Willow is 14. Check your facts sir!! So it is okay to joke about a 14 year old girl to be raped?? Or for that matter a 18 year old girl? You are sick sir!!! I only hope that you stay away from my daughters perv!!!
David Letteraman is to blame because its his show. People are saying that he didnt write the jokes, but he should read all of them before he goes on the air.
I guess nobody values the old sayings anymore--2 wrongs dont make a right. Even if republicans were mean with jokes in the past does it make it right to make a joke about a 14 year. 2 wrongs dont make a right. Too many people in this country have no values anymore. Revenge is the way to go these days and no body, including good people or children is free from humiliation and ridicule. You should take a look in the mirror or maybe your afraid to. Terrible.
The joke could have been easily understood as being about the 14 year and not the 18 year old. It could be interpretated either way. David Letterman should have known this and therefore not say the joke. So dont compare the sexually deviant, adulterer Bill Clinton with a 14 year old. Your judgements are way off so dont quit your DAY JOB.
TJ walker.. finally someone with an intellectual opinion, too many right-wing republicans are taking this joke too far, along with Sarah Palin who will use this joke as an excuse to get some more media spotlight.
To Youtube commenters - The reason that people would get mad if someone said that about the Obama girls is because they don't have a history of teen pregnancies.
They are both wrong. Sarah Palin and David Letterman are exposing each others faults Davids faults are obvious and there isnt space to explain them all. Palin should be ashamed of her daughter for lacking the family values to keep her legs closed. Sarah should turn tell her daught she is wrong instead of telling her she dons the right thing
Fair...give me a break. I anyone talked about my girls like that I would be pissed plus get your facts straight not 12 but 14, If I talked about taking boneing Obama's girls in the rose garden would that be ok? He is a public figure.
I agree with you. No one got this pissy over bill or his daughter. I truely believe that if dave would have know it was the 14 yr old He would NOT have said that joke. Besides that He doesn't always write his jokes so it shouldnt all be on DAVE. people need to chill out dave never said anything bout RAPING a child. Yall read to much into a JOKE!!!!!!!!! Chill out & move on with your life.
you got to remember that we are in America, land of the self righteous, hypocritical, and politically correct. They say that because technically a 14 year old has no idea of what they are doing yet, so if a person over 18 has sex with a minor, they obviously coerced the minor, therefore they call it RAPE. Yeah sounds kinda stupid to me too
He didn't make fun of Bristol, she wasn't at the game, Willow the 14 year old was the only one at the game with her. It's beside the point however. Sarah Palin is fair game. She's in politics. Her kids aren't. A polititians kids should always be OFF LIMITS, even if they get knocked up at 17. the fact that the left so viciously continues to go after the whole Palin family is testiment to how much of a threat she is to them and their agenda.
Why is it that whenever someone from the right is attacked, it's always the right's fault? But, when someone on the left is attacked, it's the right's fault.
Two wrongs do NOT make a right.
It was Willow Palin NOT Bristol, that was at the game with Gov. Palin. Her daughter is only 14 years old! Regardless, political figures' children should be left out of satire. Replace the names with the Obamas, and the media would be all over this. Liberal hypocracy at its finest!
Selective outrage is one of the right's favorite tactics. They've turned it into an art form. Ever hear them getting upset at nasty remarks made by Limblow or Coultwhore?
Talking about her kids in a sexual manner on public TV is way over the top. He should be sued and the FCC should reprimand him and possibly charge him.
according to tjwalker, the dumb shit defending letterman in this video, He thinks its funny when letterman jokes about a 14 year old getting raped, so i'm sure he is laughing his ass off at the prospect of his own daughter getting raped also. pretty funny huh?
you do a vulger joke on national tv about the rape of a child and then call her mother "slutty", and you claim you didnt know which daughter, as if there is a difference. There is no way in hell letterman didnt know which daughter he was refering to, now he is in trouble for it, (rightly so) and this jackass is trying to rationalize it as if anything could excuse lettermans vulgar regurgitations. And if you are not offended by DL than you are a sick bastard also
no one knows whether letterman knew it was the 14yo but letterman. also, don't blame him, he just reads the cards. if someone is at fault, it's the writers and whoever greenlights the jokes. this is like blaming a waiter for food poisoning.
So you are now defending Dave by saying that he is too stupid to comprehend the words he is reading and speaking, or to have the moral integraty know better than to say those words. Yup, your a sick bastard. (are you tjwalker the "speaking expert"?)
how do you know he didn't ask to have the joke pulled before the show? how do you know he knew it was the 14yo? he isn't stupid, but he may have been ignorant. no one knows, therefore no one should make accusations.
David asked? its his show, hes the boss, its called "world wide pants production" its all his, he dont ask nobody nothing, he calls all the shots. excuse me, you are a STUPID sick bastard
I'm guessing you are a communications expert, as your sign-off indicates. As such, I'd think that you'd acknowledge that Letterman, having been on nightly network TV for almost 30 years, has some expertise when it comes to communication. One of the basic tenets of good communication is the principle that if the receiver doesn't get the true meaning of the sender's message, it is the sender's fault, not the receiver's. I don't buy it that a 30 yr. veteran simply made a clarification error.
TJ Thanks. That was a very reasoned, intelligent, valid response to Letterman's comment. And btw, I DO NOT have to agree with someone in order to appreciate their opinions (I just happen to in this case). But how interesting when people respond with "You don't agree with me? Then shut up, you %$##" That attitude is why we are in some of the messes we are in now. Can't we just say, "Hm. Interesting comment. I don't agree." So to the scathing posts to you i say, "Hm. Interesting. I don't agree."
LLL- I appreciate your opinion. Would you not agree that it is in poor form to publicly humiliate a 14 year old girl on national television? The reason I say this is Letterman was making fun of Palin's public appearance at the Yankee game, which was widely publicized. As such, it is also widely known that it was 14 y.o. Willow Palin at that game, not 18 y.o. Bristol (though that wouldn't make it any better, imo). He's been on tv as a communicator for 30 years. He knew exactly what he said.
It wasn't funny, it wasn't fair, it was dispicable. She not a public figure and even if she was, it was still disrespectful. This isn't about politics T.J., Letterman is an ass, so are you for defending it. Stop sending me emails also, I just decided I don't want to read your books or any other crap from you. Is there any class left in this country?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
LOL - You're right - it was funny.
Bristol Palin is 18, by the way.
I think Letterman was ripping on Eliot Spitzer more than Sarah Palin's daughter. He was basically saying that Spitzer likes barely legal girls (which is apparently true).
HMS- it's pretty common knowledge that the daughter with Sarah Palin at Yankee Stadium was Willow, her 14 year old, and NOT Bristol, who is indeed 18.
Even if it was Bristol that was there, and the joke was meant for her, it's still poor form. Letterman has a nightly pulpit from which to say anything he wants, and more and more the past 10 yrs, he uses it to be a classic school yard bully. He's bullying a defenseless (in relation to his pulpit) 14 year old girl. There's no defending it.
I have a funny joke:

It is always unacceptable to attack someones children, no matter what party.
David Letterman has entered an area that is vulgar, tastless, and lacks human decency.
His comments show him to be unqaulified to host a tv show.
Such baseless hatred for a 14 year old is so uncalled for, and it is very sad to know someone can go so so low to attack a minor.
