Don’t Fire David Letterman! There is the First Amendment and there is freedom of speech.
If Governor Sarah Palin decides to accept David Letterman’s “sorry” apology that is her privilege. But Sarah Palin has no authority to accept David Letterman’s “sorry” apology on behalf of all girls and women. Most American women are sick and tired of the misogynists amongst us and we should begin to illuminate exactly who they are, such as David Letterman, and include the names of women who support their pitiful sexist antics, such as Margaret Carlson, Joy Behar and Arianna Huffington.
“As consumers, as citizens, we don’t have to buy this stuff; we don’t have to watch their shows, we don’t have to watch the Miss USA Pageant; we don’t have to buy Playboy; we don’t have to support their shows or like “The View,” or any of them if we don’t want to.”
UPDATE: Add Bill Maher to the anti-women list of hateful misogynists amongst us: Bill Maher Makes Letterman’s Child Rape Jokes Look Like Nursery Rhymes. Yes, on the very day that David Letterman offered his “Sorry Apology,” Bill Maher ridiculed all the Palin daughters with sex jokes 1000% worse than anything that Letterman said. According to Bill Maher, these jokes are “harmless.” Do I add him to the “List of Male Misogynists” or to the “List of Female Self-Loathers?”
Don’t Fire David Letterman! David Letterman is “smarmy, smug, and seriously un-funny.” Although he is a tasteless and crass comic, he is only one tenth as disgusting as Bill Maher. No one should demand they be fired. Neither should Don Imus have been fired, but he was done in by the very reverend shake-down artists, Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.
