David Letterman vs Sarah Palin
June 11, 2009
On Monday, David Letterman made a joke geared towards Sarah Palin and her recent visit to New York City saying:
“During the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez.”
Sarah Palin hit back at the Late Show host on Wednesday releasing a statement saying:
“Laughter incited by sexually perverted comments made by a 62-year-old male celebrity aimed at a 14-year-old girl is … disgusting.”
On Wednesday night’s show Letterman responded saying he was referring to 18-year-old Bristol Palin, who recently gave birth to a son out of wedlock despite her mom’s
high-profile abstinence advocacy.
He says:
“We were, as we often do, making jokes about people in the news. 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.”

Ha ha! Nothing is sacred. I don’t think that teen sex/pregnancy was the joke., I think it was Palin’s hypocrisy that was the joke.
Also, kinda funny only one person is up in arms.
Ha ha to her too.!!!

Very telling that she thought he was referring to her 14 year old isn’t it?
