I think Letterman made a mistake with the 'slutty stewardess' remark ...
after all, it was pretty generally agreed she was going for the 'trampy librarian' look.

1. Just wondering...
Will anyone in the press have the nerve to ask why Todd Palin is never at his job? He seems to follow Sarah around everywhere she goes... can you name one political spouse that is seen in public EVERYWHERE they go, at every speaking engagement. And do they drag the kids around with them as well?

Hey first Dude... do you have a job? Then why are you not at that job?

6. From what I hear, it is part of their religion, the husband has to accompany
the wife.

I'm not kidding!

It's a Christian Taliban thing, kind of.

3. Exactly. The term is "flight attendant".

4. I think Rush & Savage ought to be held to the same standards of media scrutiny as Dave
And, yes, I remember the furor over Limbaugh's Donovan McNabb remarks. Still - it seems like he can be nasty and gets a virtally free pass.

Also, I'd have more sympathy for Palin if she hadn't been so casual about throwing bombs like Obama "pals around with terrorists."

9. Maybe some of Howard Stern's crudeness rubbed off on him for a night or so.
Nobody's perfect...

10. I think it was a mistake just to give her the chance to grab more publicity -
she is a real hog for media attention, and I think she is starting hre run for President already.

14. Yeah, you are right - her first time up on that stage and she was hooked -
I believe she will do nearly anything to be in the media....

Can you see her as a talk show host?

:freak:

16. She was hooked long before that. Haven't you seen the footage of her during that pageant?
And also too, she was a "sportscaster."

17. I am afraid I haven't really followed her early life ...maybe I should,
but I really can't stand her.

I can see her as a sportscaster, maybe, if she just read scores and stats and offerred no opinions...

I feel she is an insult to America, and some people are just too dumb to get it.

Thanks, though - maybe I will look up her history ...after my breakfast settles.

11. Headline: Slutty Flight Attendants on Strike over Letterman Joke
"I mean like how could he compare us to Sarah Palin? You've got to like pass a test to do this job."

15. As a long time friend and admirer of slutty flight attendants, I am incensed.
The word "stewardess" is sexist and antiquated and stands as an affront to all the male flight attendants out there who try every day to sleep around indiscriminately.
