True to his liberal nature, Letterman has repeatedly mocked Alaska's conservative, former Republican governor, [[Sarah Palin]], since she came into the public eye as a 2008 vice-presidential candidate. In June 2009, while Palin was attending a benefit for those with autism in Westchester, New York, Letterman escalated these attacks in a particularly degrading fashion, describing Palin as having a "slutty flight attendant" look and claiming that her fourteen-year-old daughter, Willow, was "knocked up" on the field at a NY Yankees baseball game.<ref>http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/1832149/letterman_palin_has_slutty_flight_attendant.html?cPager=2</ref> Although Letterman has since claimed that he meant to insult and demean her eighteen-year-old sister, Bristol, instead, observers have pointed out that Bristol wasn't at the baseball game in question, giving lie to this claim. CBS has since kept its' production contract with Letterman, giving him a continued venue for his liberal rants.

At least Palin has only been married once and is still married. And, she'd never lived with a second husband for 23 years before she married him, nor did she lose a first marriage to personal infidelity.
