Making a federal case when her daughter wasn’t even at the game is a LIE!

“Making sexual jokes when Palin took her 14 year old daughter to the ball game would be joking about rape. It’s not that hard to understand.”

Apparently it IS hard to understand. Letterman had no way of knowing that Willow was at the game. She’s not named in any stories, and no pictures have been produced to show that she was there. Anyone with any sense knew that he was talking about Bistol. She’s 18 and Todd’s “statutory rape” remark would not apply.

Is Willow actually 15 1/2 instead of 14? Is there no end to Sarah’s lies? Unbelievable.

wow great stuff..!!!!!! I love how Palin goes for ideas of the conservative family values and with her daughter going out in public and talking to the youth about teen pregnancy and sex. What better role models for out youth. THere the ones i want to look up to.. not my parents or my teachers…

The reason why Palin is speaking out about the joke now is because she wants the media attention. She wants to look like she is standing for all that’s good and right in the world. David Letterman was wrong and he apologized for that. But the Clinton’s were never apologized to for the “joke” that Limbaugh made, no wait he doesn’t joke….the OPINION he gave about a 13 year old kid, one who has turned into a lovely young lady btw. I sincerely hope that she is only doing this because she believes in the rights of woman (hahahahaha that’s a joke in itself as she represents a party of mostly old power hungry white men) and not just to further her polictical aspirations. Sadly, I know in my heart she is doing it all because she wants to be that first woman in the Oval Office.
Now I have said some things that may sound a bit liberal, but I think ANY politician that comes out and complains about a joke that was meant in jest and said at a time when any kid SHOULD be in bed, is being ridiculous. She put her kids in the spotlight and she doesn’t expect this?

And as for ridiculous? She claims that Letterman is suggesting RAPE: he never once said anything about rape in his original joke.

I will shut up now. Thank you for verfying what I already knew. Great post!!!!

Oh brother. Another made up story from the anti-Palin lynch mob.

Spreading slurs and innuendo based on unsourced hearsay is called “vicious gossip”, not fact.

Letterman is a decent person. That is why he apologized. His first “apology” wasn’t really one, and upon retrospection, he realized it. Good for him.

Letterman showed a lot of class (although I’m sorry he chose to apologize).
The concept that SP accepted the apology on behalf of the military and freedom of speech when she is suppressing the speech of a COMEDIAN?????

SP has dragged, shoved and promoted her kids constantly. Her baby was dragged on stage (appearing drugged) during the campaign, Willow did the dropped puck/boo thing – and didn’t she bill Alaska for dragging her kids uninvited to political events and have to repay that???

It seems to me that this living joke is fodder for everyone just on the basis of her own crazy behavior. It really isn’t necessary to bring the kids into it – she’s so freaking nuts, she’s a walking joke factory.

And I also believe the “slutty flight attendant” comment was what she was REALLY pissed about.

She is SO unelectable. Her overreactions to things absolutely disqualify her from any public office.

Thorazine people!!!

Considering that Candies is Bristol’s employer, she is fair game for that and she’s over 18. She has chosen to stick her nose out there just like her mother.

This was not a question of Letterman making a bad joke about her kids. If she wasn’t shoving them into every photo op or dragging them apparently drugged onto the stage with her, no one would even notice her kids. Oh yes, didn’t she bill Alaska for their attendance at political events she dragged them to uninvited?

The story needs to die now. SP is still fair game. Leave the kids alone though – but hit her hard, with everything they have.

Both parties mishandled this. But Letterman went back on the air with a pretty thorough mea culpa. Even if you think he’s a sleazebag, he apologized. Not the snarky, let’s-continue-the-joke apology–I’m talking about the second time.

All Sarah Palin needed to do was point out that the joke was tasteless and that it offended her as a mother. That would have gotten everyone on her side. Instead, she spun some rather false-sounding outrage about Letterman insinuating the rape of her daughter.

This isn’t just about perception. This is about actions in the public sphere and taking responsibility for those actions. By that standard, Letterman PWNS Sarah Palin.

Debra Saunders, the conservative commentator of the San Francisco Chronicle, has an EXCELLENT op-ed piece today:

“Enough of Sarah Palin, the victim.”

Way to go, Sarah: keep alienating those who should be your most reliable supporters.

Where’s Sarah P’s apology to Obama? She called him a ‘Sambo’ and called Clinton a ‘Bitch’

http://www.laprogressive.com/2008/09/05/alaskans-speak-in-a-frightened-whisper-palin-is-%E2%80%9Cracist-sexist-vindictive-and-mean%E2%80%9D/

I guess THAT’s oK to use words like that. But I am the mother of 3 children who are either in whole, or in part, from Black decent. (kids adopted). This is far worse than dressing your kid up like a hooker, painting a red bullseye on her and putting her in front of the cameras and act like you don’t have a full length mirror around the house.

Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting……. has hell froze over yet up there in AK?

My reply would be a one time private communication with that someone, then LET IT DROP. I would not want to embarrass my daughter any more than she already has been. ANd I would take a look on how my children are dressing to represent my family. Is it slutty, or in good taste? I dare say, 99.9 percent of Palin’s problems are created by Palin. Her reponse IS over the top. I would also get my facts straight. That daughter is NOT 14. My daughter, born in Oct of 95 is turning 14. Palin’s daughter has already turned 15.

NOW has become a joke, and I was a feminist before they even existed.

They’ve become as pathetic as the feminists who supported Hillary Clinton even though her sniper story meltdowns.

There is still a “knocked up” unwed teen stumping for abstinence paid by a corporation running ads that degrade women. Both the humorists and the journalists should bring that situation to the attention of their audiences.

There is still an Alaskan politician who is no closer to being ready on day one for the presidency than she was Sept. ‘08. Any media exposure of that situation is welcome.

The Letterman episode is a skirmish in a campaign that will eventually expose all the facets of Gov. Palin.
