Et Tu, Letterman...Leno?

[billc]

Well, when you have lost Letterman...and all that. David Letterman, no friend to Republicans, sorrowfully admitted that obama had been...dishonest...in his comments about Romney and the GM. The weird thing is that he said it with liberal nutter Rachel Maddow sitting on his couch...the video is embedded in the article...

DAVID LETTERMAN, HOST: Here’s what upset me last night, this playing fast and loose with facts. And the President Obama cites the op-ed piece that Romney wrote about Detroit, “Let them go bankrupt, let them go bankrupt,” and last night he brings it up again. “Oh, no, Governor, you said let them go bankrupt, blah blah blah, let them go bankrupt.” And Mitt said, “No, no, check the thing, check the thing, check the thing.”
Now, I don’t care whether you’re Republican or Democrat, you want your president to be telling the truth; you want the contender to be lying. And so what we found out today or soon thereafter that, in fact, the President Obama was not telling the truth about what was excerpted from that op-ed piece. I felt discouraged.
RACHEL MADDOW: Because the “Let Detroit go bankrupt” headline you feel like was inappropriate?
LETTERMAN: Well, the fact the President is invoking it and swearing that he was right and that Romney was wrong and I thought, well, he’s the president of course he’s right. Well, it turned out no, he was taking liberties with that.


​

Added to that is the joke that Leno told about obama. It went something like, the President said the sanctions are wrecking the Iranian economy, and if anyone knows how to wreck an economy it would be President Obama...

Et Tu, Letterman...Leno...

...and if jokes from late night hosts meant anything about a person running for president, Mitt Romney would never have made it out of the primaries. So when do you start talking about real issues? Or is that too difficut now that Mitt is moving to mirror the president's view on an incredible amout of issues?
