I didn’t want Don Imus fired and I don’t want Letterman fired. If people don’t like the type of humor or commentary presented on a program they should change the channel.

The problem is, there are no channels left to change to since this type of “humor” is considered acceptable by the left.

Letterman's comments suggest he has some interesting thoughts about 14 year old girls.

It's no longer a "change the channel" deal ~ the people watching had no reason to expect Ol'Dave was Ol'Lech.

Best he be moved to a channel where they pay for that stuff, or maybe to a padded cell or something.

Your failure to show greater sensitivity regarding the interaction of 62 year old lechers and 14 year old girls will be noted (by someone I'm sure).

I agree. Those people who are angry enough should boycott and organize boycotts of sponsors of the show. Let the market decide. If enough sponsors leave the show, he will be out of work.

I do not think this is so much about getting him fired as it is to show that the right is not going to take it anymore. What Letterman did goes way beyond the cyberbully which has in some cases caused kids to end their own lives. He is a national on air bully and bullies need a bloody nose.

Sarah’s kids seem to just shake this off. But it must cost them in some way. If Hannity were to attack the One’s kids in any way, it would be met with a firestorm from the left and rightly so. If Sarah is to run in 2012, she needs to know that we have her back and that of her kids. We can and should do a great big firestorm over this.

While we understand that we can change the channels, and in fact I never watch DL, we object to his using the airwaves to preach this sick comedy to the ones who do watch and are in his audience. Believe it or not there are some really sick people who watch, voyeurs may be the word.

He is giving the Green Light to rape at will, and there are those in the crowd that will see it that way. Well, David Letterman said it was ok, and people laughed, so why not. Rape is NEVER funny.

What channel do I go to in order to see and hear major late night hosts or stars making such rude comments about Obama’s certifiable hateful and ugly wife, or his two nappy headed chillin having sex with adult baseball players?

“Humor” must avoid persistent, hateful and sexual innuendo against ANY politician —— unless they treat ALL of them the same way... They don't...

So this type “humor” isn't humor at all - it POLITICAL assassination by ridicule
A well known Marxist practice..

“If people don’t like the type of humor or commentary presented on a program they should change the channel.”

Uh, humor?

Well, thank you for sharing your sexual proclivities with us. Rape is funny stuff....yessireeeeee!!

There are a lot of “funny guys” sitting in prisons that have acted out those fantasies and violent acts. I hope they laugh themselves into early graves.
