Letterman's top 10 list last night
The subject was "Top 10 Things Overheard at Bush's Labor Day Barbecue"

The one that got the biggest applause from the audience was "I still can't believe that idiot is president."

1. My fave
"No, we haven't found the relish, but we believe in the existence of relish and we will continue to search for it"

3. Letterman has been taking some shots at the moron
I missed last night's (dangit), but I've seen a few recently that made my jaw drop - all the way back to where Dave was trying to get the imposter on his show before the 2000 theft, and when he finally did, Dave asked the liar how he'd handle some big issue, and the dumb Texas jerk replied, with his sneering snicker, "fake it." Letterman laughed and said, "and that's how you'll run the country..."

I think Dave's been on board since the begining (on board meaning recongnizing what a sad excuse for a pResident we have been stuck with).

7. Remember the tape he kept running of DimSon
cleaning his glasses on one of Letterman's staffers shirts?

But, what I like best was, a couple nights after Bush* had been on, Dave said to Paul "I looked into his eyes and said to myself 'My God, you could hold dances in there.'"

11. "The George W Bush Joke . . .
Edited on Tue Sep-02-03 09:58 PM by nedlogg
That's Not Really a Joke"

Did anyone see Letterman the night he had Rush Limbag on. It was a few years during the time that Hillary was on the cover of a magazine (Vogue or Cosmo, I forget which.) Anyway, Limbag had the magazine with him and and shows it to the studio audience and says something like "She looks like a hood ornament on a 57 Pontiac" or something to that effect. Dave retorts with "I suppose you're the most perfect looking human being in the world" with the Dave attitude (you know what I mean). He shut Limbag right down. It was great.
