It won't go anywhere if Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton aren't on board.

Letterman may be a misinformed Lefty crank...but this is going too far.  Let Imus have his "nappy headed hoe" and let Letterman have his "slutty" moments.  It is OUR CHOICE to not watch them.  It is OUR CHOICE to pressure advertisers.  We DO NOT NEED THE STATE to be our nanny. 

<i>Edit: to be fair, the lawmakers only asked the execs to fire him which I guess makes for a good way to raise the visibility of Letterman's idiocy. </i>

When the tables were turned and the joke was re-written implying A-Rod
knocked up Letterman's dog-faced wife, A-Rod was heard to say, "Are you
nuts?? I wouldn't hit that broad with Derek Jeter's bat!!!"

"I'm baackk... "

Foxx said on his radio show that he was disgusted with Miley Cyrus and her wholesome image.  He said that she should 'start doing crack and making porn movies'.

Cyrus' father very correctly excoriated Foxx, saying that if a white comedian has said that about his black daughter, he wouldn't think it was funny.  

Foxx pulled the same lame dodge that Letterman has pulled, saying he was 'only joking' and that Cyrus was a 'public figure'.  But no one defended him, because he was flat out WRONG to say such stupid things.

Major media is on the wane.  They used to be great, and now their mighty empire is crumbling because more and more people are seening just how idiotic, petty, small-minded and ignorant these media figures are - both in 'news' and in the 'entertainment' industry.  (quotes added because the news doesn't report news anymore, they editorialize.  And entertainment isn't entertaining anymore - it's crass, vulgar and vile)

And they know it.  But again, Rush was right.  He's always said that whenever a liberal is wrong, and being crushed because of their wrongness, they respond by doing more of the same, only louder and more obnoxiously.

And hark how right he was.  Instead of taking Letterman to task for his insane ramblings, his media buddies are trying to circle the wagons around him.  

All right you Obama media slaves - so, your only requirement for whether or not  you can say a woman's daughters are getting 'knocked up' at baseball games is that she's 'putting herself out there'?  So simply being in the news means that a woman is fair game to be called 'slutty'?

How about Oprah?  Or Michell Obama?  They're 'putting themselves out there', right?  They're 'famous'.  They're 'public figures'.  Can a conservative commentator call them 'slutty'?  How about Sotomoyor?  She's putting herself out there too, right?  And Nancy Pelosi.  Maybe their daughters and Obama's daughters are getting knocked up at baseball games too.

Oh, don't worry - it's just 'joking'.  It's just 'being funny'.  You liberal types are too sensitive - you need to learn to laugh at yourselves and your slutty-with-knocked-up-daughters political figures.   Where's the laughter...?

Hypocrites.

if CBS fires Letterman the ACLU would get involved.

“It does not require a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority keen to set brush fires in people's minds”

Samuel Adams

yes, he should be fired because CBS should grow a concience and decide they do not want to support this kind of behavior.  It has nothing to do with freedom of speach, it has to do with the microphone.  I can speak in these forums all day long, just like letterman, but I can not speak on his show, probably never.  Television has nothing to do with free speach.  Besides, no speach is truely free, it is paid for by the men and women who put on the uniform every day, men like Gov. Palin's son.

"Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it?...I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom.... deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall."

Is it just me, or is Letterman starting to look more and more like Alex Trebec?  If he grew a moustache, I'd have trouble telling them apart.

Trebec is another Bush-hating liberal with a chip on his shoulder - maybe Trebec's and Letterman's mothers both got 'knocked up' by the same guy during some baseball game...

- and his stale schtick's about as funny as a train wreck. I say give Todd Palin five minutes alone with this creep- maybe then he'd get the hard education in moral clarity that he so severely lacks.
 
If Sarah Palin is SO silly and irrelevant, why the obsession? Clearly the Left noted her appeal, and are out to eliminate the threat- it’s not like it’s not obvious. 
 
And she’s been highly successful in life while ignoring the left-wing feminist model… this helps to explain the extra dose of venom in the attacks. 
 
Go get em, Sarah- and don’t mind the press, nobody will be listening to them anymore after the pending Obamamania implosion-
