A little bit of free advice I was thinking about...feel free to chime in to the contrary (or in confirmation!):
Letterman: STOP making jokes about the joke you botched. You thought you were making a crude joke about an 18-year-old; you ended up making a crude joke about a 14-year-old. But, either wya, your real intention was to insult the mother. And you've done that. You called her appearance slutty and you suggested her daughers are easy. You once again showed that it is perfectly funny and OK to sexually disparage conservative women. And the complete non-reaction of the so-called feminists to your joke once again shows with crystal-clarity that non-liberal women are not really "women," at least the "women" deserving of the outrage and advocacy of purported women's interests groups that claim to stand up in the face of inappropriate sexualization of women. But please STOP acting as though the indignity has been done to you.
Palin: STOP overreacting. Stop acting like you don't know that he got confused about which daughter he was making fun of: we all know that his joke-writers thought you were with Bristol, not Willow. That's what was supposed to make the joke "funny"--that your daughter who got pregnant outside of marriage supposedly has "loose morals"--not that your 14-year-old would actually sleep with a professional baseball player.
And stop acting like this is considered over-the-line. Regardless of whether you agree with it, in our society, this is not considered over the line. This is the risk you run by being a conservative woman in our society--you are going to be de-humanized, objectified, and hyper-sexualized, because the left has absolutely no idea how else to handle women who aren't "their" kind of woman. And, it is considered perfectly OK to put your daughters on the targetboard to acheive this.
At most, your response should be: "Well, it seemed like lame joke, honestly. Look, I know he doesn't have anything against my daughters. I am the target. The joke was just the usual liberal, ironic drivel that amounts to nothing other than misogyny toward conservative women wrapped in the acceptability of anti-conservative bashing. Liberals don't like me, so they call me a slut because I try to look attractive and call me a bad mother because my child experienced a difficult life challenge. It's easier than going head-to-head with me about my policies and principles. But that's the best they've got: name-calling me by victimizing my kids. Come to think of it, though, I don't really care to take advice from a party that holds Bella Abzug out as their example of the feminine and produces a President that says he supports abortion rights because he wouldn't want his daughter to be 'burdened' by the mistake of his own grandchild." Then never speak of it again. Please.
