In an MSNBC interview today, Contessa Brewer ferociously batted cat toys around via satellite with radio host John Ziegler, whose on-camera presence is strongly reminiscent Read the full post.

    Roberto,What alternate world have you been living in ? A bizzarro world where you really believe Obama had anything to do with the DISASTER left to him by Bush.
    Roberto, please, the economy, the deficit, the war with its human and financial costs, on and on. Are you insane?

  • Sarah

    This is why I hate politics. That guy was such a jerk. He clearly came on to cause trouble.

  • Chris

    Was Letterman’s joke in bad taste, and was Palin justified in taking offense? Yes. Was it funny? Hell yes (and brutally true – some of her outfits were spot on Ann Taylor After Dark). Letterman’s a comedian, not a news anchor. These are jokes, people, and the name Palin is synonymous with the word punchline.

  • Abe Black

    Wow, considering how people like Ziegler, Palin and Limbaugh had been raging against Obama, attacking everything from his mother for marrying a black person (which conservatives loath) to the fact that his father was muslim, its pretty funny to see how you Republicans respond to your own medicine. You all have the audacity to be insulted by this interview, yet its vice versa is the standard over on CheneyTV/Fox News. Now that your side lost, you resort to violence (Miller, the Holocaust museum shootings, etc). Good luck winning elections with that style of thinking.

    To answer the question below, yes “Roberto” is insane.

  • Chappel

    I couldn’t really hear what Ziegler was saying since his head was buried in Palin’s a**. I think the gist of the argument was that Palin is still an idiot.

  • Matt

    Here are the 2 videos of the Letterman bits Palin is so upset about:

    PMSNBC, har har. What a clever pun you made, Roberto Pinheada. Oh, see what I did there? roflz

    If make perverted sexual joke about a child is fairgame for liberals then make fun of Michelle Obama (THE UGLIEST FIRST LADY EVER) is fair too.

  • Roberta

    I couldn’t agree more with Roberto!

  • daysun

    This was not a funny joke. A 14 year old getting raped isn’t funny. If this happened to Obama’s girls you wouldn’t like it all. Letterman hasn’t been funny since the 90′s.

  • Carol

    The joke was about SPITZER being such a letch that he would hit on Palin’s kid. How did that get turned into calling Palin’s daughter a whore? Oh, yeah – it gets done that way because a) Palin needs attention however she can get it since she’s unable to get it through her intellect, and b) Republicans have a “blame the woman” attitude for all sexual jokes and encounters.

  • Dale

    Brewer got her a$$ handed to her by Ziegler. She was out of her league. BTW, if I had a dog with a face like hers I’d shave its a$$ and make it walk backwards.

  • Austin

    Contessa Brewer acts as if Sarah Palin should not be insulted at the comments of Letterman, yet she said to John Ziegler, “For you to come on and use those sort of insults, insults me”. She then said, “Cut the mike please”. Can’t anyone see how ridiculous this is?

  • lastparker

    No matter which one you agree with, Contessa Brewer is a big crybaby. Call her a whaaaaaambulance. Crikey – I have NEVER seen a professional journalist cry, “Cut the mike!” before.
