UPDATE below the fold.

Contessa Brewer interviews John Ziegler regarding David Letterman’s tasteless comments about Sarah Palin and daughter, Willow.

For background on the kerfuffle, see Curt’s post here.

When the interview got too hot to handle, Brewer orders Ziegler’s mic cut.

Roll the tape:

Letterman doubled down last night.

Exit question:

Who, on the left, has decried this hateful misogyny toward Sarah Palin and her minor daughter?

Anyone?

Anyone?

Didn’t think so.

UPDATE:

Apparently Letterman is feeling some heat about his back to back comments regarding Sarah Palin and her minor daughter.

According to Entertainment Weekly (EW.com) Letterman tried to back pedal and gloss over his disgusting comments during tonights’ taping of his show.

“We were, as we often do, making jokes about people in the news and we made some jokes about Sarah Palin and her daughter [Bristol]… and now they’re upset with me…” Letterman says on tonight’s show. “These are not jokes made about her 14-year-old daughter. I would never, never make jokes about raping or having sex of any description with a 14-year-old girl…. Am I guilty of poor taste? Yes. Did I suggest that it was okay for her 14-year-old daughter to be having promiscuous sex? No.” Saying he hopes he’s “cleared part of this up,” Letterman extended an invitation to Palin to come on the show as a guest.

Sorry Dave. Not buying it.

By the way, still no outrage from the left.

Obama: Mirandize Terrorists Captured Waging War On America, Update: An Obama Flip-Flop?

Unbelievable!

[T]he Obama Justice Department has quietly ordered FBI agents to read Miranda rights to high value detainees captured and held at U.S. detention facilities in Afghanistan, according a senior Republican on the House Intelligence Committee. “The administration has decided to change the focus to law enforcement. Here’s the problem. You have foreign fighters who are targeting US troops today – foreign fighters who go to another country to kill Americans. We capture them…and they’re reading them their rights – Mirandizing these foreign fighters,” says Representative Mike Rogers, who recently met with military, intelligence and law enforcement officials on a fact-finding trip to Afghanistan.

Rogers, a former FBI special agent and U.S. Army officer, says the Obama administration has not briefed Congress on the new policy…

Yup, lets return the days of treating terrorism as a crime rather then as a act of war. It worked out so well during the 90’s didn’t it?

Best way for our soldiers to win this thing? Kill the enemy instead of EVER capturing them. You capture them they may very well end up with a taxpayer funded vacation to a tropical paradise.

UPDATE

Here is Obama on the campaign trail mocking Sarah Palin’s suggestion that Obama would want terrorists mirandized:

Yeah, its just a smug smirk but a few months later he said:

“Now, do these folks deserve miranda rights? Do they deserve to be treated like a shoplifter down the block? Of course not.”
