Dave Letterman made a joke about Sarah Palin being at the recent Yankee game with her daughter and made some jokes about her daughter getting knocked up by A-Rod or sex with Elliot Spitzer. Tonight he gave what he considers an apology, but it's just backtracking and lying.
“We were, as we often do, making jokes about people in the news and we made some jokes about Sarah Palin and her daughter [Bristol]... 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.
Uh Dave, it was the 14 year old that was with her at the Yankee game. So saying you would "never, never" make jokes about a 14 year old is a flat out lie. The part the I find really funny is that after the Governor released a statement condemning the comments, the libs are accusing her of using her daughter for political gain. Dave brought her up, not the governor.
Letterman has really become a cranky, dirty old man recently and his politics and hatred of Conservatives has really overshadowed the show.

Last week he told Lauren Conrad he would love to see the alleged sex tape of her. Dave! She's 40+ years younger than you. Gross. You could tell she was embarrassed having this relic of a man ogling her like that. I felt embarrassed for her & Dave. Come on Dave, please get back to being funny again. I miss the old, not desperate Letterman.
