Taking time away from her hectic and substantive schedule of creating future meth addicts, smiling for the camera, shooting endangered species, and raiding the RNC's war chest on Neiman Marcus clothes that convey Avon saleswoman gravitas gosh darn it, Sarah Palin vented against funny man David Lettermen for having the unmitigated audacity of presenting a satirical item written by one his "Top Ten List" WGA staffers.
Among the typical melange of relatively good-natured jabs, one item on the list apparently proved so "unmavericky" and policy-driven that it provoked a dyspeptic response from Palin herself....
"What a commentary there," Palin said of the comment during an
interview on conservative host John Ziegler's Los Angeles-based radio show. "That's pretty pathetic, good ole David Letterman."
The bigger story (apparently right-wing nut jobs killing innocent people is so cliche) is over Lettermen poking fun at her ultra-loose daughter Bristol.
Oh Sarah! Since you perpetually keep yourself in the news, constantly reminding us that we came within a broken hip of having Bible Spice behind the red button, you're more fair game than wolves. We should be ever-so grateful to Lettermen, for reminding the miserably uninformed that intelligent Americans can't allow a barely literate extremist to speak for real Americans.
I will conclude by saying I am a topical comedian; therefore, I'm absolutely barred from making funny yet pointed and smart commentaries as well as silly jabs abut any public figure in the news. I feel that I must apologize to Bush and his cabinet for steering our country into the garbage barge over the last 8 years. Never mind the fact that many GOP comedians made lewd and hurtful remarks about Bill Clinton getting a BJ or that Palin, an obvious farce of a candidate that even ice fishing Eskimos in Greenland can attest, that has thrusted herself and her family into the public realm. More important, never mind the fact that Palin built her entire sideshow of a political career out of cutthroat backstabbing and shameless gossip, or flagrantly mocked the work of Martin Luther King and Gandhi at the Republican National Convention. Please accept my apology, Sarah.
