Palin to Letterman: You Owe an Apology to Women Across America

Sarah vs. Letterman

David Letterman made a joke earlier this week that ‘Sarah Palin’s daughter got “knocked up” by New York Yankee third baseman Alex Rodriguez during their recent trip to New York.’

Sarah Palin, the Alaska governor, appeared on NBC’s “Today” show Friday, continuing a feud with David. She told the “Today” show that ‘David Letterman owes an apology to young women across the country for his joke about her daughter.’

Sarah told host Matt Lauer, “I would like to see him apologize to young women across the country for contributing to kind of that thread that is throughout our culture that makes it sound like it is OK to talk about young girls in that way, where it’s kind of OK, accepted and funny to talk about statutory rape,” she said. “It’s not cool. It’s not funny.”

Palin said that it was ‘time for people to rise up against Letterman’s form of humor.’ She thinks that these kind of jokes give girls ‘low self esteem.’

Sarah said, “No wonder young girls especially have such low self-esteem in America when we think it’s funny for a so-called comedian to get away with such a remark as he did,” she said. “I don’t think that’s acceptable.”

Rihanna’s Sexy Trapezey Act Not Flying in Malaysia

A serious news source; FOX News, has reported that a “Pan-Malaysian Islamic party (PAS) claims Rihanna’s performance, planned for Kuala Lumpur on February 13, would be an insult to Asian values.

Rihanna

The Malaysian government has strict rules when it comes to female performers, and artists are required to cover up from their shoulders to their knees. This would be a problem for Rihanna because she is known for skimpy outfits like belly-baring corsets and knee-high boots. The PAS organization, which has launched protests against the U.S. over its support of Israel in the ongoing struggle in the Middle East, has also warned that ticket buyers are contributing to the United States’ economy.”

These guys are T.O.’ed!
“PAS youth wing leader Kamaruzaman Mohamad tells Malaysian newspaper the Star, “Whether Rihanna realizes it or not, we know that the taxes she has paid also contributed to the war in Gaza.”
Mohamad claims the event would be “akin to insulting Eastern culture, belittling local artistes, internationally causing losses to the country’s economy and supporting Israel’s war policy, which is supported by America.”"

So, does Rihanna know about this? Do her peeps know!!!???
“Pineapple Concerts, the promoters behind the show, maintained Rihanna’s management is “aware of the country’s regulations and the difficulties of doing a show.”"
