Sarah Palin isn’t a fan of David Letterman‘s humor, now is she?
To celebrate Palin’s recent visit to New York, Letterman took the opportunity to take a few jabs at Sarah and her family on Tuesday night’s Late Show!
During the funnyman’s opening monologue, he poked fun at the former VP-nom’s 14-year-old daughter, saying: “The toughest part of [Palin’s] visit was keeping Eliot Spitzer away from her daughter.”
Ha!
Both Sarah and her husband Todd have released statements shaming Letterman and his ‘poor taste’ in humor, of course.
From Papa Palin: “Any ‘jokes’ about raping my 14-year-old are despicable. Alaskans know it and I believe the rest of the world knows it, too.”
And from Miz Palin herself? Get ready for a mouthful.
“Concerning Letterman’s comments about my young daughter (and I doubt he’d ever dare make such comments about anyone else’s daughter): Laughter incited by sexually-perverted comments made by a 62-year-old male celebrity aimed at a 14-year-old girl is not only disgusting, but it reminds us some Hollywood/NY entertainers have a long way to go in understanding what the rest of America understands ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ that acceptance of inappropriate sexual comments about an underage girl, who could be anyone’s daughter, contributes to the atrociously high rate of sexual exploitation of minors by older men who use and abuse others.”
Lighten up, guys!
