Some of the best work advice I've ever received was shortly out of school, and a female co-worker was being very flirty with me. An old hand watched this from a distance, pulled me aside, and shared some very sage wisdom with me: "Don't **** where you eat".

That's a play on my farmer Grandpa's old saying..."Pigs don't **** where they sleep".

Indelicate, but accurate. You don't mess up where you have to live.

Pigs are smart.

Something to be learned from them.

Nice. David Letterman was on his tippy toes on the high horse when Spitzer's story came out.

Dave isn't any better.

"Even so, Letterman has joked about others' infidelities. Numerous jokes and at least two of Letterman's famous "top ten" lists highlighted South Carolina Gov. Rick Sanford's extramarital affair. Letterman included the "Top Ten Surprising Facts About Mark Sanford" and the "Top Ten Gov. Mark Sanford Excuses" during the days after the governor admitted to having an affair this June."

This is no surprise.

He's a pig, obviously.

But what do you expect from someone who cracks underage anonymous insemination and impregnation jokes.\

Oh, about Republicans' children.

So for those who still watch him (I gave up when he stopped being funny), how are they going to deal with his junior high school level sexual innuendo jokes in the future? There's none he can make that won't come back on him.

David Letterman (a man) had sex with multiple women... and it's the enitrely women's doing. Yeah.

It takes two to tango, buddy. They didn't force him. (At least, there's no evidence so far that anyone on either side was forced.)

Very good advice

Several years later I was working at another job, and there was a woman in the office who was pretty hot and would flirt outrageously with every guy there, except when she started trying to rub up on me those words came back and I got the hell out of there. She was fired for cause and two weeks later filed a sexual harrassment lawsuit and everyone in that office except me and a guy who was like 90 got rolled up in it.

This statement here makes you feel so sorry for him!!!

"This morning, I did something I've never done in my life," said Letterman. "I had to go downtown and testify before a grand jury."

Personally, I don't see what's the big deal about it. I don't really care.

He had sex with other women, so what. He was only married for seven months.

I think there are more important things to be worry about.

How about putting that blackmailer in jail.

When Letterman has the ability to pass legislation that will have a bearing on my personal life, then I migiht care who he sleeps with. Otherwise, I don't really think it is any of my business.

I'm wondering if there is more to the story..

Letterman said the blackmailer had proof that Letterman did "Terrible things"...

By today's standards this doesn't seem to fit the bill..

I'm wondering if Letterman had sex with the Blackmailer and there was a threat of Dave being "Outed"??

Unfortunately (and maybe for Letterman) the sexual harrassment laws can throw a wide net - in NJ, if you are telling an off-color joke and someone eavesdrops or overhears you, they can claim that you contribute to a hostile work site. Of course, there was a time when one wouldn't tell an off-color joke in the presence of ladies but now there are no boundaries, it's anything goes anywhere until you dig up some comprehensive legislation and slap someone with a lawsuit.
It may also be bad news for Letterman that the man who was arrested has pleaded not guilty, which means that, barring some unforeseen occurrence this will go to trial and Letterman will likely be expected to testify.

I read that the blackmailer was a producer for the CBS show "48 hours."

I disagree because his reputation (what little is left of it) reflects on not just him, but his staff, his network and his fans. Turning the initials CBS into "Cheating Bastard Station" does affect more than just Letterman himself, it affects his shows advertisers, his staff, and everything associated with that.

This doesn't affect just one person. This affects Letterman's wife, his kid, the women whose names are going to be dragged through the mud with his when this dog and pony show winds its way through court and the damage from all of this has barely even begun.

Consider this: if his show gets cancelled because of scandal (and it might if enough sponsors decide they don't want to advertise with a womanizing cheat) a bunch of people lose their jobs and it doesn't look good on a resume' to list a job where people slept with the boss (unless you're applying to be an intern for Bill Clinton).

What's REALLY bad is this is a double whammy for CBS because the guy who's being charged with this extortion is CBS producer Robert "Joe" Halderman who's done work on "48 Hours", several documentarys and news stories, and now CBS' news team looks like it's been run by a greedy crook who doesn't care about taking dirty money. This from a network still dealing with the Dan Rather discredited story and a lawsuit that just made the news this week?

CBS is taking a beating. They really, really didn't need this.

No but the irony is delicious



“Gov. Mark Sanford disappeared…and it turned out he was in South America. And then it turned out he was down there because he was sleeping with a woman from Argentina. Once again, foreigners taking jobs that Americans won’t do.” –David Letterman
“Ladies and gentlemen, here is great news. Senator Larry Craig from Idaho … is looking for interns. What parent doesn’t want to hear, ‘Well guess what, Dad, I got accepted into Larry Craig’s intern program’? But if you’re interested, Larry Craig is now accepting applications from interns. Just slide your resume under the stall.” –David Letterman
“But did you hear about this? Senator Craig from Idaho plans to fight a disorderly conduct charge. He wants to change his plea to ‘not creepy.’ … Earlier today Senator Craig said he’d like to turn over a new page. I believe his name is Kevin” –David Letterman
“Several prominent Republicans are calling on Sen. Larry Craig to resign. And a couple are asking for his phone number.” –David Letterman
“The guy was arrested for lewd behavior in the men’s room, and I’m thinking, ‘Well, hell. I’m lucky if I can get a hand dryer to blow’” –David Letterman
“There’s another scandal in Washington. One of the senator’s from Idaho, Larry Craig, was arrested in airport men’s room. Gives new meaning to the word caucusing.’” –David Letterman
“Sen. Craig said he made a mistake by pleading guilty. And I was thinking, maybe that was your second mistake.” –David Letterman
“The way I look at it, anyone who spends more than two minutes in an airport men’s room is guilty of something.” –David Letterman
“My idea of getting lucky in the men’s room is when the motion censor works on the faucet” –David Letterman
“David Vitter has admitted he dates hookers in Washington, D.C., and also in Louisiana. He said in his defense he always selected the girl who made the lowest bid, so he’s fiscally prudent.” –David Letterman
“There’s another one of those prostitution scandals down there in Washington, DC. Louisiana Senator David Vitter admitted that he’s been visiting Washington area prostitutes. And I thought about this, ‘Whoa, wait a minute, a politician, paying for a hooker? I didn’t see that comin.’” –David Letterman
“They have prostitutes in Washington D.C., and it now turns out that senators and congressmen and important, powerful people are dating the prostitutes. … And there’s a senator from Louisiana, David Vitter, admitted he’s been dating prostitutes. And he was very generous with one girl, he paid her with a new highway project in her home state. … One thing I’ll say for this guy from Louisiana, this David Vitter, at least he went to a professional and left the congressional pages alone.” –David Letterman
“How about that Florida congressman Mark Foley? Whoa. At least the Democrats wait until the interns are 18.” –David Letterman
“The Republicans reacted quickly. They transferred Foley to a different parish.” –David Letterman
“Have you all been following this scandal in Washington with ex-Congressman Mark Foley? Well, a couple of days ago, he checked himself into rehab. … It had gotten so bad he had to go out and develop a drinking problem.” –David Letterman
“The ex-congressman, if nothing else, is contrite. He says when he gets out of rehab, he wants a fresh start and to turn over a new page.” –David Letterman
“I read this in the paper this morning: New York City has a priest shortage. So you see, there is some good news in the world. … To give you an idea how bad it is, earlier today in Brooklyn an alter boy had to grope himself.” —David Letterman
“It’s sad. Spitzer said there is so much left undone — Amber, Ashley, Rhonda.” –David Letterman
“Eliot Spitzer was a Hillary Clinton superdelegate. … Also, Spitzer was on Hillary Clinton’s vice president list, possible running mate. Boy, she can pick ‘em, can’t she?” –David Letterman
“Bill Clinton’s official portrait was unveiled at the White House yesterday. Don’t kid yourself, there’s already trouble. Yesterday, Clinton’s portrait was caught hitting on Dolly Madison’s portrait.” —David Letterman
“Here’s a nice thing. You remember President Clinton, he had the heavy-set girl thing. He had a dog Buddy, who sadly died a couple of months ago. Well, President Clinton has gotten himself a new dog. You know, I think it’s changing his life, kind of brightening him up. He’s teaching the dog to sit up, to beg, to roll-over, you know, just like he did with the interns.” —David Letterman
“President Clinton may be getting his own TV show on NBC. He could be the first president to ever be both impeached and canceled. They’re going to pay the guy $50 million. And that’s not all. If I know Clinton, he’s going to be getting a little something extra under the table.” —David Letterman
“President Clinton wants to buy a condo here in Manhattan. I’m thinking, just pray to God he doesn’t buy the place above you. In the middle of the night, you could hear that 200-pound intern drop to her knees.” —David Letterman
“You know who was in town this weekend, went to a Yankee game? Sarah Palin … One awkward moment, though, during the game. Maybe you heard about it, maybe you saw it on one of the highlight reels, one awkward moment for Sarah Palin at the Yankee game. During the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez.” –David Letterman

It occurs to me that we are only hearing one side of the story from a man that happens to have a nationwide venue to spread his message from. Does is seem like he is trying to strike first in order to have some control over public opinion? He's spoken about it twice now.

He may have only been married for 7 months, but he was with the women who he is married to for like 20 years.......
