Letterman Clarifies Joke About Palin's Daughter
From the right-wing HotAir website -

“We were, as we often do, making jokes about people in the news and we made some jokes about Sarah Palin and her daughter … and now they’re upset with me…” Letterman says on tonight’s show. “These are not jokes made about her 14-year-old daughter. I would never, never make jokes about raping or having sex of any description with a 14-year-old girl…. Am I guilty of poor taste? Yes. Did I suggest that it was okay for her 14-year-old daughter to be having promiscuous sex? No.” Saying he hopes he’s “cleared part of this up,” Letterman extended an invitation to Palin to come on the show as a guest.

5. I'll bet she will make a guest appearance.



Just to get the free publicity. But if she thinks she can shame Dave with her faux indignation, LOL, forget about it. Dave is a pro and Failin is a dumbass. If she tries it he'll make her look like the jerk she truly is. Kudos to Dave for making the offer anyway, he's got a lotta class. Failin has no clue what class is.

6. Ok. I missed something. I heard the Top 10 and it was about Sarah Palin, not Bristol.
How the hell did it turn into something about Bristol?
