Letterman on Spitzer last night

[WolfMan]

Figuring Dave Letterman would be all over the Spitzer news last night, I taped the show.

 

First words out of his mouth (Keep in mind he tapes this at 5:30pm, not even four hours after the story broke) were "Do you, do you think it's too soon to be hitting on Mrs Eliot Spitzer?"

 

I did laugh - feel very sorry for her though (and the kids).

 

The Top Ten was pretty lame, but again they had less than four hours (some were good though!):

 

Top Ten Eliot Spitzer Excuses

 

10 - Oh come on, like you were never involved in a prostitution ring

9 - Hookers is fun

8 - Just trying to help the economy

7 - Have you ever been to Albany?

6 - It's part of my new MTV prank show "Spitz'd"

5 - Haven't been myself since Roy Schieder died

4 - Uh, tainted beef?

3 - Whether it's a hooker or your wife, you're always paying for it -- you married fellas know what I'm talking about

2 - Wanted to be known as the Charlie Sheen of politics

1 - I thought Bill Clinton legalized this years ago

P.S. Jim Carrey was on. I am not a fan of his, but he was pretty darn hilarious last night (especially with his papparazzi talk).
