David Letterman has done more than just alienate some female viewers concerned that the Late Show host has crossed ethical boundaries by sleeping with female staffers at CBS.

It seems David Letterman has similarly begun alienating Republicans - moth male and female.

Unusually hard on the GOP these days, David Letterman is beginning to face criticism that he is too Democrat-friendly on his long running and more popular than ever late night talk show.

The concern about David Letterman's recent anti-Republican comedic arsenal was heightened this week as the venerable comedian once again took aim at former Republican VP contender and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. In fact, David Letterman's recent "Top Ten Surprises in the Sarah Palin Book" still has people talking - particularly Republicans who think the Late Show host has gone too far in his Sarah Palin bashing.

Throughout the month of November, David Letterman has also raised the ire of some GOP hard-liners for presenting the recurring skit: "Things More Fun Than Reading The Sarah Palin Memoir." As one can imagine, that list includes some pretty outlandish activities, including being run over by an automobile.

Is David Letterman being too anti-Republican? You be the judge.

    I do think that those who oppose the Democratic Party, and the media does protest too much! So what if David Letterman is "Democratic Friendly," everyone has a right to their preference. For eight years those of us who opposed the Republican Administration, and especially Dick Cheney and George W. Bush, feel that we have gone through hell and high water, not to mention the year that the election was stolen by the Republican politicians in Florida. Republicans do like the Democrats did, regroup and get on with your lives. The outcome of the election was a matter of the people's vote!
