It is completely beyond me why anyone is still talking about the whole Letterman-Palin joke issue. I can't imagine why Dave felt it necessary to issue a public apology, much less two. I mean, Sarah, really. When you join the American political process at such a high level, you become a target for these guys. When you involve your family in as public a manner as you did, you become a wider target. When you demonstrate, by word and by deed, that you are hopelessly out of touch with the real world, that you are, effectively, a moron, you become an easy target. When you demonstrate, by word and by deed, that you are a hypocrite, you become a juicy target. When you moan and whine about it, you become...well, quite frankly, you become a bit pathetic. And when you make the mistake of thinking that everything is about you, it just becomes a little bit sad. Because, let's be honest, Sarah. You and your family were convenient comedic accessories, but that joke was aimed at Alex Rodriguez. And you don't hear him crying about it, do you?

The Palin's certainly are all about political expediency. It suited them to act all outraged and such about something that was a joke on late night, and certainly not aimed at their minor daughter :o)
A bit pathetic? You're being awfully generous, Paul.
Yeah, she is a total kook! What worries me with all the other "tragedies" facing the Republican Party of late she could become the frontrunner for the 2012 election. Zoiks!
