A perfect example of a “Do as I say, not as I do” liberal.

Why on earth would I fall for the scam of carbon offsets?

So because he was VP, he should get a pass on polluting the planet 21 X greater than us “regular folk”? Especially while preaching to the rest of us not to be wasteful?

I bet he buys carbon offsets for all of his traveling

Uh….yeah. What a swell guy. What an environmental savior he is!

He’s a comedian (debatable) and not a representative of the DNC. Who gives a rat ass what he says or thinks.

Anyhow, Brokaw is correct and that’s why there are so many cities that have signed up for the Cool Cities Agreement rather than rely on Bush and his gang of criminals to do something about global warming. Oh, and I don’t drive in a limo or a private jet, not do the vast majority. Do you think Al Gore should fly economy? Really? C’mon, that’s just ridiculous. He was Vice President of the United States. I bet he buys carbon offsets for all of his traveling…how about you?

Word,

There is so much utter BS in what Letterman said that I do not know where to start.

Sept 2001 (after the AQ attacks) I got married. I was an Army captain with an apartment, high taxes, high interest rates on loans and credit cards, a military which could barely pay for training rounds or OPTEMPO miles, and a convoluted and blind national intelligence system.

In June 2008, I am an Army Major with a house, lower taxes, lower interest rates on loans and credit cards, a new mini-van to transport all three kids, a military which is updated and fighting the enemy in their homes (not ours), lowest unemployment levels in decades, two children born and one due in a few months, an intelligence services able to better track what is going on in the world and try to keep it from our shores, pro-US leaders being elected in Europe, Islamic terrorists taking hits everywhere from the Phillipeans to Algeria, and no attacks on US Soil since 9-11 with no losses in freedoms.

So, no, I do not agree that “the guy just was a mistake” Mr Letterman or the rest of your elitist hack assertions. I do fully acknowledge that on many issues, the Republicans left conservatism for “democrat lite” and quit the party in 2005 in response. Maybe the RNC will wake up one day and see the folly of thier move. Too bad leftists like Letterman, living comfortibly with their millions of dollars in worth and mansions, will not see the effects of socialism (as it does not affect the leftist ‘elites’).

Another interesting exchange:

DAVID LETTERMAN: Guys talking about the President really can’t do anything about the economy. I don’t know if that’s true or not, but let’s give them that one, let’s just say “okay, the President can’t do anything about the economy.” Everything else has gone so lousy in the last eight years. I mean – and I’m a guy who doesn’t pay attention to much, as long as I got wresting and a TV dinner I’m fine – but even I am perceiving now that things are horrible in ways they shouldn’t be horrible. Now, we’re not going to impeach the guy. Could we get our money back? Honest to God, what, I mean [audience applause], just at least something.

TOM BROKAW: David, that’s why we have elections and we’re about to have an election and on January 20th he’ll be out of office. In this book, I write about 1968. Let me remind you that forty years ago this year, Doctor King was killed, Bobby Kennedy was killed, we had the Chicago riots, 16,000 people were killed in Vietnam, Lyndon Johnson decided not to run for re-election, the Kerner Commission said we are two societies – one white, one black, separate and unequal – we had urban riots and in the fall we had as cantankerous and as contentious and in many way as mentally violent an election as we’ve ever had – with George Wallace who was part of it.

So, we’ve been through these difficult times before and the way you work your way out of them is you get the two parties to nominate their best candidates and then everybody re-enlists as citizens and say to themselves and their family and their friends: “Hey, it’s time for us to get involved.” So that’s how I feel about it.

LETTERMAN: Well, if you’re confident, I’ll be confident. But don’t you agree, the guy just was a mistake?

BROKAW: Well, it’s ah [pause for applause] Remember it’s his tax return that your auditing, not my tax return!

That’s ok. I fully understand. Just want to make sure some of our more easily offended trolls do not feel they are being persecuted or that you get a “100% conservative free pass” ™ .
