Logic fail, eh? So if some random guy did something stupid, but I thought you did it, and I made fun of you for doing it, I wouldn’t be making fun of you for doing it?

Logic fail, indeed.

‘If you watch it with the sound turned down, it looks like a public service announcement about the dangers of inbreeding.’

Hilarious.

‘Well, Letterman may not have *meant* to joke about Willow, but he did. I have no problem giving him the benefit of the doubt that he thought it was Bristol, but it was Willow at the game, so the joke was about Willow. He should have just owned up to his mistake right away, but eventually his pride subsided and he did.’

I agree his ‘joke’ whomever it was directed at, was in incredibly poor taste, and Letterman, perhaps not immediately, did apologize just a few days after the controversy heated up, not once but twice, as a direct result of Palin fanning the flames.

I have yet to hear ANYONE on the Right publicly denounce the racist email sent by Senator Diane Black’s aide that slandered President Obama.

After listening to Conservatives across the country lose their minds about Letterman, the hypocrisy of the silence regarding that vile email is stunning.

@Duros62

Since News Referenece found a good feed for the video, this is just for possible future use. I couldn’t make the clip here show anything, but I saw a tiny display that said Waiting for ad.doubleclick.net. Made me wonder, so I disabled Privoxy and reloaded that page, and the video played OK. I’d assume that the same could hold for any proxy that protects you from brain-eating Google-owned zombies and the like.

Then I had to disable it again and kill cookies. PITA. But the next time I have something that just won’t load and play, I might try letting doubleclick make a brief contact with my computer, if it seems worth that high price.

Everyone, in the country…so, that ‘Somepeople’ guy has a first name. Don’t you need cable to get Letterman out in the country? I’m pretty sure I heard that Everyone Somepeople went Garp, so he no longer has cable. Right?

No, what does schmuck mean in Jewish?

Exactly. And by the way, has anyone asked Alex Rodriguez his thoughts on the subject? I mean, the brunt of the joke was on him knocking up Bristol or, in wingnut speak, butt raping a 14 year old.

But he’s no where to be found. Odd, that.

Ha ha! This is hilarious! I have been looking for this clip for a few days now. Thanks! I looked on YT-couldn’t find it. Just some old dude talking about how much better Jay L is!(what is this thing about Jay Leno and these people?!)
Anyway I also enjoyed the two guys teasing the lady in background as she made the “rape with his mouth” statement!

The video didn’t work for me either, “Duros62″.

Anyone see a copy on YouTube?

Duros62, I had a problem getting through it without laughing. Quaker in a Basement may be on to something; this does look like a Letterman man-in-the-street segment. Too damn funny.

Leno had said and joked about the same thing and just as “graphic”. Right wing trailer trash paranoid diatribe (that’ll confuse them)

Wow; all that outrage and this woman didn’t get a single element of the non-story correct.

Well, Letterman may not have *meant* to joke about Willow, but he did. I have no problem giving him the benefit of the doubt that he thought it was Bristol, but it was Willow at the game, so the joke was about Willow. He should have just owned up to his mistake right away, but eventually his pride subsided and he did.

They people in the video are crazy, though.

These must be the people from “real America” that Palin so fondly speaks of.
