Tuesday night, David Letterman kept his war with John McCain raging strong, weaving another McCain joke into his monologue (that's 4 shows in a row, not counting the Friday show which was seemingly pre-taped earlier in the week).

"Yesterday the stock market...suffered its biggest one-day drop in history....And I'm telling you, boy, it's a good thing John McCain blew me off to go save the economy. Thank god is all I can say!"

I do hope after he loses the race he struggles to keep his senate seat, or retires. Our country doesnt need such a liar.

Letterman is way past his prime. I used to watch him and enjoyed the intern jokes at Clinton's expense. His jokes are repetitive and lame. People watch him because he is a habit like coffee in the morning.

His returning to McCAin over and over is his normal routine like squirrels in Central Park. Not funny and just allows a potty break.

Late night comedians run with the hilarity of the moment. And at this moment, nothing is more hilarious than the McCain/Palin campaign.

"Letterman is way past his prime. I used to watch him and enjoyed the intern jokes at Clinton's expense. "

This says more about YOUR bias than anything about Letterman.

Grow up. I bet all the times he`went atfterClinton you found it funny. What McCain did was a joke and needs to be pointed out as much as possible

Hey, coffee in the morning is one of life's most rewarding rituals. Watching Letterman is pretty good, too - I've been amused by Dave since he was on the local Indianapolis newscasts back in the '70s.

That's right, Dave. Praise the Lord Almighty. It could have dropped 778 points!

I sincerely hope that Dave's people are at this moment booking Maureen Dowd to be on the show ASAP.

Bwahahahahahaha!!!

It's amazing that a few comedians seem to be the only ones doing the job of honest public appraisal against what seems like literally tens of thousands of professional press and pundits too timid to say boo in person. But catch those tigers of the press off microphone talking to each other, and it's grrrr..... Go Press! You're doing a helluva job!

Professional press fear being demoted like KO and Chris M and fear being ejected out of the plane without a parachute like Maureen D.

If John McCain would lie to Dave, why should he tell you the truth?

It's the new Clinton intern joke.

Letterman will run it into the ground, just like he does with everything else.

Letterman will still vote for McCain. Letterman isn't a liberal.

Oh really, and where do you get your "facts" from? Probably Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limpbaugh or any other faux journalist on Fixed Noise? LOL.
