The Swiss have concluded for some crazy reason that Roman Polanski might just skip out on bail if they grant it to him. Bonus: He might then be in this jail cell for a month or more awaiting US extradition,……

I thought there were anti sexual harrasment laws
for this kind of behaviour.

Even where i work i saw a video on the horrible men
and the evilness of their sexual desires.

So why wasnt some layer suing letterman?

Oh yea i forgot its all about the liberals
and their hypocrisy..

And by the way if any man tried to pull this stunt
(oh dear she was just a co-worker)
I will apologize on video

Im sure the wife would be so understanding..
As she beat the hell out of you..

They paid him with a check, which is rather odd. Extortion is paid in large cash ammounts or overtime in small ammounts. Never by check, which would definitely flag the IRS and Homeland Security.

You’re right. *haha I’m not savvy enough here, obviously!

I personally wouldn’t skewer all liberals on this, but I do agree with you that there are numerous contradictions in thinking right now within the new “progressive” group.

I had great sport with this topic, because the so-called liberals were absolutely obsessed with the fact that Letterman wasn’t married, so it “didn’t really matter.”

At first, I thought it was a few individuals pushing that silly meme. Nope. It was THE major apologist argument of the day. Heck, I heard it on CNN AND Fox.

Now, Fox….I get. But on a progressive blog? What’s up with all that traditionalism? Regina and Dave lived together, were in a long-term marriage, he always presented the relationship as stable….just not formal.

And “liberal” poster after poster informed me that marriage makes a huge difference, and obviously I was mistaken. Dave was single and just dating.

Now, I’m a liberal from way back on many, many issues. It floored me to read this. It completely dismisses Regina as even relevant. THAT’S not feminism. I definitely consider myself pro-women, to a fault. I really will give women more support, more elbow room for mistakes, etc. I’ll defend till I bore someone to death. And these new “progressives?” They haven’t a clue about feminism.

I definitely know what you mean, btw, about the neurotics. They are also contradictory in attitude.

They paid him with a check, which is rather odd. Extortion is paid in large cash ammounts or overtime in small ammounts. Never by check, which would definitely flag the IRS and Homeland Security.

I think that he approached Letterman, which is why he’s now in deep trouble; but I suspect it was going to be a case of “I’ve written a screenplay, based on fact, that you may wish to buy the rights, too.” I agree with you that taking renumeration by check doesn’t spell out extortion at all. It spells out “Let’s make a deal.”

He has a defense here.

And I definitely agree with you that there is more to this story.

I will bet, without watching, that the monologue was written by a team of PR people and NBC lawyers…or Robert Gibbs.

CBS, not NBC. It’s hard to tell the weaselly networks apart at this point, I know.

his wife should leave him and sue him for child support and take half of what he has. All this crap all over the news would be embarrassing to her. Dave is a pig!

She dated him for a long time and probably had a good idea of who she was marrying. She can divorce him now, but it’s likely that a lot of lawyers were involved in the pre-nup. She’d still be very wealthy but not get half.

Typical liberal male syndrome – the more left they lean, the more dysfunctional they are towards normal women.

Are leftist women like they are because of the leftist men, or vice versa?

Intelligent, right-leaning, normal women are very sexy. Leftist, not so much. ;-)

No need to fear about me straying..lol

You’re a good man!

Reprehensible behavior excused by the morally bankrupt left(the latter being CRIMINAL in nature)…

Wow, I didn’t know women were so forgiving. I guess I can pull that on my wife. I;ll have an affair, then just apologize. That’ll work.

Jeff, I don’t think it would be a good idea…it’s getting pretty cold in Wisconsin about now. ( :

LOL…I’m old and have no TV show…if my wife of 36 years wasn’t half blind and half deaf, I wouldn’t have anyone.
