Dear Governor Palin,
One week ago tonight, I made a few (sure, off color) jokes at your expense. One about you looking like a slutty flight attendant and the other about A-Rod 'knocking up' your daughter at a ball game.
I still chuckle a little thinking back on them, but that's not the point. The point is that I would like to publicly and without hesitation offer you my most sincere and heartfelt... thanks.
Seriously, have you ever watched my show? (I'm told you can see it from Alaska!) It's 2009, and I'm still making sex-in-the-White-House jokes about Bill Clinton, for pete's sake. How can you be shocked at what you heard Monday night?
No, I'm not advocating statutory rape-- not any more than I'm serious that Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor has 'been known to bust the glass and steal Twix bars from the courthouse vending machines,' as I mentioned in a recent Top Ten List.
The truth is, they're funny jokes. More people laughed at them than didn't, and in all honesty, you DO kinda look like a slutty flight attendant. (And it's probably why at least a few thousand men voted for you in November.)
Anyway, just wanted to say, 'Thanks.' My ratings have never been better, and I'm actually beating Conan, so...yay me! Speaking of whom-- did you catch his 'married to a Jewish woman' comment last week? Wanna talk about inappropriate....sheesh!
Please give my best to your daughter(s)...and sons...and grandkid. And be sure to tune in tonight-- Jack Black's on. He kinda reminds me of a slutty flight attendant, too, now that I think about it.
Best wishes,
Dave
