06.10.09 DAVE VERSUS CONAN, SARAH PALIN

There are approximately 800,000 stories about late-night talk shows today, with most of them being about Letterman beating Conan O’Brien in the ratings last night.  CBS basically laid low and let Conan have his honeymoon last week, then booked big-ratings guests like Howard Stern and Julia Roberts this week.  In addition, Conan’s primetime lead-in was hockey, so it’s not like this some kind of death-knell for the new “Tonight Show” — not that that stopped Nikki Finke from demanding everyone at NBC resign for everything.

The other thing is Dave’s Top Ten List about Sarah Palin’s trip to New York (video above).  Number two on the list was about Palin getting makeup at Bloomingdale’s to “update her slutty flight attendant look,” and the Alaskan governor naturally had a good sense of humor about it.  Oh wait.  No.  The opposite of that.

“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.” [...] Palin grouped Letterman in with media outlets “where everything is commentary and facts don’t matter anymore.”

Good call by Palin to respond to something a late-night host said.  Arnold Schwarzenegger should really release a statement making it clear that he never actually appeared on the video screen when Conan hosted “Late Night.”  Man, I hate it when facts don’t matter on late-night shows.  The Masturbating Bear isn’t even a real bear!

I heard her response in its entirety…and still:

retarded things exiting her mouth > retarded things exiting her vagina

Dave didn’t even bother to mention that Palin doesn’t wear a flight attendant’s winged lapel pin, which means she’s obviously going for whorish librarian.

“That’s pretty pathetic, good ole David Letterman.”

That’s some hard-hitting analysis right there.

Ugh, I hate this country sometimes. NBC is last in the ratings with the best shows. Meanwhile, the crap on CBS kills everything in its path. Just makes me very sad.

So Palin’s badmouthing Fox News, too?

But dressing like a slutty flight attendant is the only reason anyone likes her! She should embrace it.

And organized religion to boot!

Actually, I think she’s more upset about the joke about her daughter getting knocked up by A-Rod. You know, the 14-yr old that isn’t Bristol?

Yamabushi managed to squeeze six errors into a single line of text. I’m pretty sure that’s a new world record.

Also, he doesn’t always chew on a sausage when speaking.

Anyone else read that as groped?
