Moral of the story: conservatives are stupid and angry. Yay!

idk, I mean fiscal conservatism makes some sense. it's just short sighted. social conservatism is just.. man.. wtf. like you're marriage is gonna turn to shit if you let gay people marry. sure it says it in the bible, but the bible also has guys marrying multiple 12 year old girls.

</liberal rant>

wha?

Can someone supply a back story here? Why are they protesting david letterman?

The cuckoo alarm went off when she mentioned Alinsky and ACORN. Don't know if she represents the typical person in the group but if she does then it's just crazy right wing, Obama haters who feel their country is being destroyed and that anyone who attacks/offends their champions(like Palin) is part of the conspiracy to bring the US down and should be challenged.

Palin needs to go away.

I thought when she lost she would disappear, but no. Luck was not on our sides.

... Sooooo how are we going to make money out of these suckers?
Cafepress shirts involving various threats against Letterman?

"Time to get the opener out on the Letterman" with a picture of a knife or some shit?
"Letterman: Return to Sender" with a tombstone?

I have a great Palin joke "She's an ignorant cunt there you go Sarah now up my fuckin ratings"

 

[PhilPaul]

reaction

Yeah but it turned out they were right after

The more mainstream you are, the more you have to watch out for that mainstream backlash.

Look at what happen to the Dixie Chicks.

Moral is: You don't want to be around when there is a giant crowd of stupid angry people.

I just don't get it. how do you protest a comedian? and if you're gonna protest a comedian, why david letterman? in the spectrum of comedians in this country, letterman is on the pretty non-offensive end.

I can't speak for the protest, but Letterman is not a comedian imo. Not a funny one anyway. I watch him with a blank stare. As far as talk show hosts go, Conan and Fergueson and Kimmel are night and day to Letterman.

As for real comedians, someone mentioned Hedberg. Sad that he's gone. He was always hilarious.

A couple of my favorite Hedberg lines - "I used to do drugs.... I still do, but I used to too."

"I think Pringles originally was a tennis ball company. But on the day the
rubber was supposed to show up, a big truckload of potatoes arrived. But Pringles is a laid back company. They said "Fuck it, cut 'em up!"
