Video: Letterman jokes Health Care Protesters are like the Taliban

by Infidelesto on August 21, 2009 · Comments

Geesh…

So, here’s what The Perv of Late Night CBS Comedy said last night:

“You know about the Taliban? Over here, we call them ‘healthcare protesters.’”

Guess there weren’t any teenage daughters of Republican politiciansto pick on…

    I think Letterman should be sent to live in Afghanistan for a month or two, to spend some time in the front lines with the troops, then see what he has to say.

    You're right there Sir W ;high explosive detonating at lethal range can focus the mind;as to the real status quo!

    Letterman is a partisan asshole.He doesn't have a clue about
    what Health Care means.He doesn't care,because he's rich enough
    to have access to the BEST doctors in the world,if he needs.

    Those people,the town hallers that protested against President Hussein's
    OUTLANDISH plan to socialize America's Health Care and Medicine had
    the RIGHT to do so.Compare them with the Taleban is unbecoming to
    any intelligent person or a TV talking Head.It's a weird remark.

    Letterman's sole hobby is to bash the salt of the Earth Americans,the rudely
    called "REDNECKS",the ones who enlist in the Armed Forces,Fire
    Departments,Police,Coast Guard or as farmers and small businesses
    owners,who happen to go to Church,bear firearms and hunt.

    A single "redneck" is much more valuable to build a country than
    a HUNDRED Lettermans combined.

    Letterman just isn't funny.He never has been.
  • Beejj
    Actually, FBF, Letterman is embarrassingly unfunny, which is far worse. Why does his audience laugh at his woeful attempts at humour? Are they paid to do so? Recently he stood there wearing his manufactured smile and said, "I wonder if you are like me - if you are interested in astronomy." Loud applause and whistles and hoots. "Yes, I thought you were like me!" Peals of hysterical laughter! Can you believe this? What is wrong with these people? Verily, America will never produce a Peter Cook or a John Cleese or a Rowan Atkinson or a Clive James, let alone a Tom Sharpe. Strange, isn't it?
  • Letterman earned my undying enmity when he made a very nasty comment about Sarah Palin's daughter. In fact, if I'm EVER in range of that asshole, I WILL break his nose for that comment.....and the consequences be damned! Never heard of those guys you mention.....but we do have Robin Williams.....and then........ there's Joe Biden (if you like "slappy" comedy).
  • Beejj
    Good for you, Ralph.

    I urge you to look for Peter Cook on You Tube and to buy every Tom Sharpe book you can find. You don't know John Cleese? "Don't mention the War!"

    - that Fawlty Towers episode is hilarious. One of my favourites. No matter how many times I watch it, it never fails to make me laugh.
  • JEWHAWK
    Mr.Konrad,I will NEVER forget or forgive Letterman for that
    absurd comment on Sarah Palin's daughter.It doesn't matter
    if he apologized,for he did not meant to.

    Other thing: He isn't funny.His audience doesn't laugh,but
    applaud every silly comment he makes.The only ones with
    some talent are Paul Shaffer and the band.

    BRITISH HUMOUR:

    Rowan Atkinson is a GENIUS,not to mention
    that Charles Chaplin was a british,too.

    AMERICAN HUMOR:

    * The Three Stooges;
    * The Marx Brothers;
    * Lucille Ball;
    * Jerry Lewis;
    * Beavis & Butthead.
  • hellosnackbar
    Rowan Atkinson is a genius;and a very clever bugger too.
    I read his protest concerning the restriction of free speech!
    It's a literary gem!
    Clever use of spelling differences JH!(humor and humour)LOL
  • hellosnackbar
    Some time in the early nineties I was watching Letterman i n the company of a South African.
    After about two minutes he turned to me and said"This oke's pure shit;how did he get that job?"
    Incidently Beej I watched 4 episodes of "Not the nine o'clock news"last night.
    25 five years later it's still hilarious.
    The gay christian sketch is my favourite.

    Mocking ordinary Americans is the hallmark of a Communist; they hate ordinary middle class American individuals who cling to their God, guns, and their sacred life and liberty.

    "I came to know the errors and the misdeeds, the vanity and the stupidity of the people. I hated and despised them." Jean Meslier

    http://books.google.com/books?id=q6Xyiv67AeMC&p...

    “You must, therefore, confess that by "individual" you mean no other person than the bourgeois, than the middle-class owner of property. This person must, indeed, be swept out of the way, and made impossible.” Karl Marx

    http://www.anu.edu.au/polsci/marx/classics/mani...

    “Our rebels have contemptuously rejected the values and way of life of the middle class. They have stigmatized it as materialistic, decadent, bourgeois, degenerate, imperialistic, war-mongering, brutalized and corrupt…” Saul Alinsky

    http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/Articles/Oba...

    David Letterman, by mocking ordinary Americans who exercise their sacred freedom of speech through criticism of un-Constitutional Socialism and Socialized Medicine, also mocks our Bill of Rights; an attitude also characteristic of Communists who do not acknowledge, and actually hate, our individual God-given right to liberty.

    "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." First Amendment, U.S. Constitution

    These so-called comediens are real tools of the administration. Gone are the days when comedy was about comedy and not political agenda. I still promise to break Letterman's jaw if I ever get lucky enough to be in range. That terribly ugly comment he made about Sarah Palin's daughter has earned him that....what a pig. Course, if the comment had been about some "nappy headed ho", Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson would have had him fired, blackballed and had his public apology from him as he hung from a cross on national TV......so I guess just breaking the puke's jaw is just the least I could do.
  • Hey, good comments: Forget the old man idiot Letterman, he is an old fool, going to Hell with the rest of the Godless clan in Washington DC.

    Look at this: You will be blessed. People do still care.
