This is actually kind of amazing if you're familiar with the history of the Pabst brand. It's value was next to nothing when it was bought back in the 90s. Basically a group of investor just bought what was a more or less defunct brand for peanuts. Then they smartly paid other people to brew the product and went around snapping up other old school beer brands. All the while increasing their sales without any investment in marketing.
Also, Clinton (and every other politician) lied, denied, and tried to evade the accusation. Dave came straight out and admitted it, and told the whole story. Even if he was cheating on his girlfriend (and who's to say she didn't know about it), he's being way more stand up about it than most public figures have been.
Hey, I like a good Clinton/Lewinsky joke from time to time - but did you need to post a picture of her that makes her look like she is merely a oral sex receptacle?
It should be said that the opening salvo of jokes about Letterman and this "scandal" came from Letterman, and it's unlikely that anyone will do a better job of making fun of the man.
"Would it be embarrassing if it were made public? Perhaps it would. Especially... for the women."
Uh. These aren't really Clinton jokes. These jokes all disrespect Monica Lewinsky far more than they disrespect Clinton. Clearly they mirror Letterman's contempt for the staff members he was abusing. Nice guy. Mr. Middle America, huh?
@BettyCrocker: Oh, there was a time Letterman ripped on famous women so much, Whoopi Goldberg actually came on the show and asked what his problem was.
I'm not seeing what the big deal is. So he had sex with his assistant(s) and cheated on his partner. Yes it's wrong, but it's not like it doesn't happen.
It's intriguing and fun to laugh at when a family-values politician does it, but Letterman is just a comedian. He's paid to make fun of people. It doesn't necessarily make it hypocritical.
Yeah. Stealing cars is wrong, but it's not like it doesn't happen. Yeah. Abusing puppies is wrong, but it's not like it doesn't happen. Yeah....on and on
