Yes, what could be better than some Iraq War jokes and witty banterage?

2. Hope Letterman pulls a Jon Stewart on him.
Letterman is no fan of the * admin.

6. WOW!!
The Bush Admin. is getting really desperate. Why else would they try to put that crusty senile sack of sh*t on late night television?

9. He's nuts... Letterman will be loaded for bear and waiting
he has absolutely no patience for the administration.
What in the hell are they thinking? Rove must be in a coma!
Hey, go for it I say... could be very damaging!

11. He ought to ask if he STILL KNOWS the location of the WMD's ...
I hope Dave doesn't shake his hand. It would take a lifetime to wash the blood off.

"We know where they are. They're in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad and east, west, south and north somewhat."

12. Well they're not booking Rummy because he's entertaining
its propoganda, and or they figurepeople will tune in to see what he says.

14. Wonder how it will go over when he does not answer a single question
you know how he does that, or sometimes turns it back on the person who asked the question.

My bet is there will be an early commercial break cause Dave is about to lose his cool.

17. May the "Late Show Bear' eat the bastard. Then poop him out
and Dave can use it for a "Will It Float" segment.

Now that's TV!
