“When, in Ameriqan law, does this cross the line into slander?”
Per the common law
http://www.expertlaw.com/library/personal_injury/defamation.html#1
“Most jurisdictions also recognize “per se” defamation, where the allegations are presumed to cause damage to the plaintiff. Typically, the following may consititute defamation per se:

Allegations that an unmarried person is unchaste;”

Of course, Letterman is only joking.
However, if anyone asks whether his Idol Obama is even qualified under the Constitution (to destroy our country brick-by-brick) why—that’s pure “hate speech”.

(And we even have some here saying, “`Leave Obama alone!’ From the GOP “roll over and spread `em let’sjustbepatient,regainpower&letuspissitawayagain” school, no doubt, forgetting that turds like Letterman fought their Idol Dubya tooth-and-nail, no holds barred everyday for 8 years.)

What Letterman is doing is verbal child pornography. The old maggot fantasizes in front of the camera about a minor being raped and prostituted.

Well, I agree that the double standard is in full force regarding Bush v. Obama; I also know that the Birthers have no legal leg to stand on.

Thanks for that info. Can't imagine what Willow's classmates are saying to her. The Palin's should sue them and the station - in the meantime - we boycott his advertisers.
