Letterman: A person of GREAT Disappointment


In the early nineties I went out with this guy who was an unfettered die hard fan of Dave Letterman. As I recall most of this guy's initiated conversations were about Letterman. Prior to our last date this dude was incessant on bragging about his future trip to New York where he had scored front row tickets to the Letterman Show. A week later after this guy returned from New York we set up a date. I found it interesting that during our extended pre date phone conversation he never brought up Lettermen. I later discovered why. He began to tell me on our last date that Letterman was the rudest most condescending egocentric person he had ever encountered. Although he did not actually encounter Letterman, he went on to explain that Letterman was rude and dismissing to his audience during the pre show warm up. "His warm up portion of the show was certainly not warm," he dissapointingly admitted. I gathered that my date was no longer an unfettered fan. Seemed my date's feathers were ruffled to the extreme and it appeared he was no longer a fan of the goofy toothy Letterman. Needless to say I never went out with the guy, never knew the reason why. I am guessing he went into a deep depression when he discovered people on TV aren't what they seem. Could it be that Letterman's funny antics were just consequential quirks? As time went on I never could quite get my date's experience out of my mind. With Letterman's obvious disdain for conservative views, and overly liberal talk [especially the constant bashing of Palin and uncalled for comments] I came to realize there was more to this man then meets the eyes. Remember folks it is all about the eyes.

Fast forward to the present and the current legal issues concerning Letterman's infidelity, I soon realized my hunches about the washed up putz [Letterman] were right on. We are all familiar with the extortion of Letterman in regards to his infidelity while cohabiting with his current wife and mother of his child. But today it came out that Letterman was still involved with this Birkitt [assistant] well into this past summer and hence Letterman's statements that it had ended in December of 2008 was all just a lie. I believe it and I am not surprised. Letterman had us all fooled. Well he did not have me fooled. I can only look back on those few dates with the Letterman fan and remember how devastated he was when he had succumbed to the false hood of Letterman's television persona.

It seems there is more to come on the Letterman saga with nothing good coming out of this for Letterman. The question is, will his fans stand by him? Well my guess is yes. People are more forgiving nowadays. You can have the worse mass murderer in history and people will find a good reason to forgive that person. I just don't get it. People just don't take a stand anymore. Is this why society has gone down the tubes? People have no morals or ethics! Mainly it is my generation and younger that have disappointed me. You have to search for the good in people. There is no reason to search. There is no reason why we have to look through the jellybean jar to find the prize. I wonder if our world will wake up to decency. How hard is it to be a good person? I find it easier to be good and kind than evil. Look I am not the happiest person in the world. I certainly have my stuff. But my god with all the crap I have been through I firmly believe I have no right to take my stuff out on others. How can Letterman do this to his wife and child? He is a public figure, how long did he think his crappy shenanigans would go undercover? Well life has it's way of coming around and for Letterman he may not have lost his fans but he has lost respect in the eyes of those who are unfettered.

ESPN, BARS and REAL WOMEN!

What is wrong with me? What have I become? Me a woman who cannot stay out of the malls shopping the coolest hip stores having a chance of a lifetime to visit one of the nicest malls in Florida, The Mall of Milenia. I have waited for the chance to enjoy a short spree through a mall that dons marble floors, and flashy boutiques. In Orlando for business I was determined to make the visit happen. But I was frantic to make it a quick jaunt as I had to get back to the Hotel to catch the election coverage on O'Reilly. Prior to leaving the mall I went to Cheesecake Factory for a lean salad. I was told there would be a 10 minute wait which means a 30 minute wait in restaurant chain lingo. "Why don't you have a seat at the bar and we will come get you." So I did and ordered a diet soda. Then I looked up above the bar and noticed two television on either side of the bar tuned to ESPN. So I wondered why is it the every damn restaurant bar or bar in general is tuned to ESPN? I have gone to the nicest clubs in my lifetime and I don't remember a time where there was anything on the tube other than ESPN. What the hell is that all about? Not all patrons of restaurants and bars are sport engaging men. Here I am at a restaurant bar, alone and besides the fact I have no companion, would have preferred something more general public friendly. Repeats of baseball is not my idea of women friendly. A matter of fact it can be downright discriminatory. Not in the legal sense of course. Why are bars so in tuned to men and forgo the woman? If people wanted to go to a sports bar then they would go, but sports in the Cheesecake Factory just doesn't cut the mustard for us independent women.
I mean at least a news show would be better than sleepy baseball. I could understand that in this instance if the world series was on but it was 7PM for god sakes.

Needless to say I was seated by 7:30 and out by 8PM or so. I ran to my car and tuned my car radio into FOX News on 121 on Serius.

So with that rant I more than pleased with the outcome of the election. New Jersey was a sure stunner and Virgina was predicted. Let's face it people are scared and they just sent a jolt of a message to the dudes sitting up there on the Hill as well as inside the House the White House of course. Conservatives are slowly taking back the reins. Is it too late? Truthfully it may be. I don't see this country pulling out of this disaster. I feel sad that I along with my genration have to live out our lives in this sorry state of affairs. I had so much more hope.

Election Day and Monday Musings




Politics: 20 minutes and counting down to O'Reilly. Tuesday should be interesting as I surely will be glued to the TV waiting for the most anticipated election results. Not in my fair state of course but in places like New York, New Jersey and Virgina. Could it possibly be after 8 years of Democratic dominance in Viriginia that the GOP can muster up a win in the Governor race? Yep, according to polls and insiders.......Damn we don't need no insiders to predict this landslide and rumor has it once the victor Bob McDonnell takes the pot of gold he will gather once he claims victory he will scurry other GOP's to board the conservative ship. Democrat Creigh Deeds may as well as sail away into Lib Land as this purple state will be the pot of gold at the end of a tumultuous rainbow.


But as a self proclaimed Republican I am not so sure that the GOP party is where it is at. Just ask Sarah Palin and friends who came out in support of third party Conservative Doug Hoffman running for the 23rd congressional district congressional seat. Democrat Bill Owens may succumb to an upset of minute [minewt] as in Bye Bye Newt, astonishment of mere percentage points according to studies. Hoffman goes back to the traditional Republican movement that has since disappeared in the more liberal Republicans that don the current White house congressional makeup. I believe that this country needs to go back to the roots of conservatism and core family values. Palin may be able to be the organizer of that movement.

Meanwhile in New Jersey GOP Chris Christie is currently holding a 2 point lead over incumbent Democratic Jon Corzine with some Independent undecideds who have had it with corruption. Wow, a typical well known Blue state tainted with red frosting may be just what the Doctor ordered. People are mad as hell and they have not seen the last year campaign promises come to fruition.
But folks here is my issue. Unless this country infuses rogue conservatives who put politics aside we are going to end up back to where we started before the 2008 election. Politicians need to be brave and hone up to their lucid backbone. But for now this election should be very interesting.
Health Care. While we as Americans need change in our health care: Like putting a cap on malpractice suits and allowing people within the states to shop insurance plans out of their respective states. Our country will go into a socialist debt ridden disastrous country if THIS plan as it stands is passed. And to Pelosi shame on you for burying the truth on what this bill is all about with your 2000 page as O'Reilly calls it, "mish mash."




Levi Johnston: Oh let me throw up now. What a disgusting pig who I pray to god his 10 minutes of fame is up. And a good place for him is the centerfold of a washed up sex magazine like Playgirl. I had no idea that magazine still even existed. And CBS morning show, is this a ploy to raise your decades of low ratings by interviewing this fruit ball? Oh who cares! Only that D list ugly red head broad Kathy Griffin.

Boyfriend of Saving the World!

Tonight was no different from any other night as of late. As soon as I got home it was a nightly walk with the dog and then a light dinner. As typical my TV was directly tuned in to The O'reilly Factor at 8PM. I forgave him a while back on his incessant need to have bleached blond guests such as Hoover and Weil. With the controversial White House feud, Grayson blunder, Health care and various other national matters O'Reilly is truly provocative and thought provoking. Laura Ingram was right on tonite in her opinion on the Obama date nite. She is one strong woman and I have to say I admire her. But something in tonite's show stuck me as very interesting and that is the possibility of a new political party, The Conservatives. With the upcoming election for various Congressional and Governor positions across the nation it seems in the New York 23rd congressional District race there is a Conservative Party candidate by the name of Doug Hoffman. Yes there is a Republican and Democratic candidate as well but with the downswing of the Republicans and their moving away from the traditional republican roots the Conservative Party is "moving on up" to the East Coast. Sarah Palin came out endorsing this candidate going against Republican candidate, Dede Scozzafava, who got the nod from New Gingrich. It was discussed on O'Reilly that we are in need of politicos and a President who has the guts enough to cut, cut and cut. Well the operative word here is GUTS. When was the last time anyone in a political position had Guts and did the absolute right thing where they were truly looking out for the PEOPLE.

Maybe the Conservative party is what we need. Conservatives do not like to spend. We need to heed to that advice and stop the damn spending. Wouldn't that be great if we could forget politics for just a moment and do the right thing. Stop the backslapping and empty promises and tell those greedy people in Washington to go shove it. I don't think I could ever emotionally handle being President of the United States. But if I was in power I would never succumb to playing into the hands of the greedy and grubbing. My problem is, like Sarah, I care too damn much about people, I want to make things better. But I am not a doctor of the United States. I am just a single woman looking for my break in life, like Sarah. Like my mom told me yesterday, "Robin, you cannot save the world, now go find a boyfriend." Thanks mom, maybe I do have a chance in saving the world, I have a better chance of doing that, then the latter.

Grayson, you are a Mooncalf

"Alan Grayson," this perpetual single woman says, "Shame on you." You are one big dunderhead and it showed by your bombastic idiotic selfish, despicable comment about Fed advisor, Linda Robertson. You publicly stated, she is a "K" street whore. {for those of you who don't know what K street stands for it is a Washington street where many lobbyists' have their offices. } Prior to that statement you stated during a congressional speech comparing the Republican idea of health care is like the Holocaust. Listen Grayson, who the hell are you? For someone who claims to represent the people of Florida you are nothing but a disturbing ignoramus.

You cannot even hone up to your blunders, you have to go through your press corp to make an apology to Ms. Robertson. You call yourself a man? You are nothing close to man, might I say you are a scared little chicken who has no guts. I wonder if the people of Orlando, now regret the vote they cast for you. As Bill O'Reilly would say, you are nothing more than a pinhead.

What is happening to our great politicians? So many of them have lost my respect. Politicians have never been perfect as they are human like anyone else but during the last several years politicians have really taken a nose dive in integrity and trustworthiness .

It is sad that there is really no one to look up to. When I was growing up there were a plethora of people that I admired and hoped to be like. But if I was a child in today's world I would have no one to admire, except maybe for Sponge Bob. Maybe admire is not the word, but envy. To live at the bottom of the sea away from such political mooncalves would maybe add a few years to our mentally draining lives.
