Handling Letterman and Other Dirty Old Men

Cross posted at The Next Right

Fourteen year old Willow Palin was at a New York Yankees game with her parents this week. Sexagenerian late night CBS host David Letterman made suggestive jokes* about the Palin daughter at the game.

Todd and Gov. Sarah Palin show how to handle a sleaze that has infected the American media:
"Any 'jokes' about raping my 14-year-old are despicable. Alaskans know it and I believe the rest of the world knows it, too."
- Todd Palin

"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 - that acceptance of inappropriate sexual comments about an underage girl, who could be anyone's daughter, contribute to the atrociously high rate of sexual exploitation of minors by older men who use and abuse others.'"
- Governor Sarah Palin

*Letterman: "One awkward moment though during the game, maybe you heard about it, maybe you saw it on one of the highlight reels, one awkward moment for Sarah Palin at the Yankee game, during the 7th inning her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez."

*Letterman: "The toughest part of her visit was keeping Eliot Spitzer away from her daughter. That was the hard part."
