Letterman Takes On Palin Resignation: Something I Said? (VIDEO)

First Posted: 8/7/09 Updated: 5/25/11

Letterman

It's been a rocky year for Letterman and Palin. He joked about her daughter, she freaked out, he apologized, she still freaked out, he apologized again, she said ok, but 15 people didn't get the message and protested his show anyway.

Last night, Dave took several shots at the soon-to-be ex-governor of Alaska, saying that we know Obama's in Russia cause "Sarah Palin can see him from her house." He said she was trying to blame the media for her resignation, and was currently in a helicopter trying to gun down Wolf Blitzer. In the midst of this, Letterman referenced their feud saying "was it something I said?" After making one more dig at Palin for being more of a beauty queen than a politician (miss congeniality will replace her), he showed two pre-taped packages his staff put together. One, an edit down of her press conference, the other a promo for her latest project.

I love David Letterman. I don't blame him for milking Palin for jokes. After all, she's the one who keeps on giving him the material to use.

She's bright but simply too ridiculous for any comic to ignore.

Pullin a Palin : being obsessed with the existence of a conservati­ve white woman from a non-urban area.

You mean: from a real American area.

For all of those who think Palin is so bad, why are you keeping her relevant?

I'm no Sarah Palin fan, but you gotta admit, America was founded by quitters.

What in the hell are you talking about? America was not founded by quitters, it was founded by revolution­aries that had the guts and determinat­ion to fight against a repressive government­. They didn't run away from their problems they confronted them head on and made incredible sacrifices to their own health, wealth and safety for what they believed in. They started a revolution­, they didn't quit from one!

Let's face it, if Palin wasn't born, late-night comics would have invented her.

If late night comics had invented her, nobody would believe it .... the whole Palin phenomenon is just too mindlessly stooopid.

David is a very sad old and nasty old man. he's past his prime and must stoop to cheap shots at policitian­s teenage daughters. Sraah Palin will be a political force for many years to come.
