The Friday night “interview” with Brian Williams was the last straw for my Letterman viewing enjoyment. When did Letterman stop being a comedian and become a political commentator? If McCain’s running mate was a man…would Letterman be giving the nominee so much grief about inexperience. How long has Obama been in the Senate…Less than 4 years! Not what I would call a seasoned veteran AND we’ve only had 1 non-Governor in the White House in the last 30 years! This is not the Letterman I’ve grown to know…he has always been neurotic and obsessive in a fun way but he has gone off the deep end and has lost his way. Shame, shame…I now have got more important things to do with my time than watch the Letterman show…my sock drawer always needs rearranging.

Dave has been on the air a long time now. He reminds me lately of other TV icons that stayed too long in the lime light.
Brinkley slipped into senility right before our eyes. Johnny Carson lost touch w/ his audience using badly timed jokes and out of date references.
Are we watching Dave melt down on personal tirades like Kelly her child labor issue in tantrums day after day?
David Letterman appears to be loosing his perspective with an over inflated since of his own importance.
CHANGE IS COMMING. Dave will have to step down sooner or latter, perhaps sooner.

I’ve yet to hear Dave the liberal make fun of Obama’s inexperience.

It will take a few terrorist nukes in this country to shut up all the idiots like Letterman. I really hope it happens, just to see the likes of him get humbled.

David Letterman just isn’t funny anymore…. his anger with the Republican party and anyone associated with it oozes from his pores and makes his humor seem desperate.

I think David needs to remember that he is just a highly paid comic who once knew how to creatively express his views in witty dialogue.

According to Republican and Democrat congresional leaders, McCain came to Washington and holed himself up in his office with his team. He didn’t even attend the meetings, he just sent his comments from his office.

Wake up America, this “hero” is pulling out all the stops and becoming the sleeziest of politicians.

Just like Bush, he’s playing the politics of fear and capitalizing on the downturn in the economy by “Suspending the campaign” in order to look like he’s saving the day. He hasn’t been in Washington to vote on behalf of his AZ constiuants since April, but NOW he’s got to rush back to Washinton? Give me a break.

For several months, David Letterman has joined the other offensive Hollywood crowd, in telling insulting jokes, at Senator John McCain’s expense. Now, when one of the most important, challenging, and controversial decisions in our nation’s history must be decided, Letterman is still crying because McCain chose to do his job, fighting for the best deal he could get for Americans and America. I’d rather have McCain in Wasington watching out for America’s interests, than to have him on Letterman’s show, or to have our Nation’s future decided by Pelosi and Reid, who have a 15% approval rating for a good reason. If David Letterman cared about Americans, who made him rich, instead of being so self absorbed and petty, he would be supporting McCain and our country right now.
