I loved these segments...gonna miss that but i'll gladly trade these segments for an actually competent president

[iswideopen]

Dave!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!­!!!! Word.

I used to watch Leno. After Letterman ripped McCain for canceling his show, I started to watch his show and haven't went back to Leno for more than three months. I will truly miss the great moments in presidential speeches.

[BenderBot]

"....haven't gone back to Leno...."

[jtmoney]

Leno is cheesy and isn't funny anyway. I can't wait for Conan to take over the Tonight Show. His self depreciating humor is way better then anything Leno puts out.

17?.....16­?.......Mo­re than 15.

ROTFL!!!!!! Thank goodness this he will be gone after Jan 20.

ROTFL!!!!!! Thank goodness this idiot will be gone after Jan 20.

Where's the DVD? I'm sure Dave can come up with hours of malapropisms, Lord knows that Bushie did.

[lucylou]

Say it ain't so, Dave!
PLEEEASEEE make a video compilation so we can share it with our grandchildren.
Otherwise, they'll think we've made it all up.

[jimrs6]

Some day Letterman will be funny again, and relevant.

[oscartucker]

Why attack Letterman; he's only giving us the gaffes of the stand-up-comic and court jester-in-chief!

[JMBrodie]

I like David. And the McCain stuff was spot on, you have to admit.

[NWBrunette]

The fact that this dufus was even a citizen of our great nation is a measure of shame. That 50 million people voted for him twice to to President is totally inexcusable. Thank goodness the worst nightmare ever to occupy the WH is nearly over.

[Heru1]

if you voted for Gee Dubya twice, it's time to confess

[curly2]

But don't expect absolution.

[Bettysdad]

I think Letterman should continue the segment.

First an historically good speech, then something asinine from W, then something terrific from Obama.

We must never be allowed forget what the people of this country did TWICE.

[onwuakor]

i know some will call me crazy but i will miss him.

[MathIsTruth]

You're not crazy, just a bad aim.

[GAPeach99]

uh... you know...

[Clavis]

"I am George W. Bush, President. I own a mansion and a yacht."

[JMBrodie]

You have to be old to know that one. LOL.

[kindageeky]

No! I remember that one...I can't be "old"!!

[johnnynyc]

Letterman is an entertainer and that's the section stories about his show belong in not on the same page with a story of Gannett and USA freezing wages.

[rckent]

The clarity of your comment is a textbook example for the necessity of punctuation. Honestly, is it really that hard to throw a couple commas or, if you'd like to be fancy, a long-dash or a semi-colon?

[dollyblue]

My husband said that he saw an interview with W some months back in which he said he'd go on the lecture circuit and "get rich" when his presidency ends. I couldn't find any reference to it. Does this ring a bell with anyone?

His goal is appalling on multiple levels.

[islanbatman]

Yes he said that in an interview with Larry King.

[dollyblue]

Thanks, islanbatman.

[Bettysdad]

I believe he actually said "make some money."

Daddy must be tapped out.
