David Letterman Declares Chris Christie ‘Fat’ Man Who ‘Welcomes’ Pie Attacks

video
» 22 comments

Will this mean an end to any Late Show visits for New Jersey governor Chris Christie–or a lively and entertaining back-and-forth battle? In David Letterman‘s monologue Wednesday, the comic suggested the pie attack on Rupert Murdoch has public figures “tightening their security” so they don’t become the next victim–all but one, that is. Yep. You see, Christie loves pie attacks! Or baked alaska attacks, or ice cream sundae attacks–you name it, just throw food at him!

And to put a blunt bottom line on it, the segment ends with a picture of Christie with the graphic: FAT.

Watch it here, from CBS:

    Oh yeah, classy photoshop you did thar. 

  • Harry Flashman

    Can we get a picture of an aged, unfunny, adulterous, and bitter old man whose only qualification in life is that he has a late night television show, and a poor one at that?

    Just asking.

  • ImNotBlue

    Letterman is a comedian (not a very good one, but that’s not important at the moment)… and he did a joke about a politician on his program.

    So why is this news worthy?

    Because Leftist @sshats hate Christie and it’s Mediate and their leftist crew’s mission in life to further all leftist character smears against everyone they disagree with.

    i wonder if Chris Christie’s wife is as hot as Murdoch’s?

  • Anonymous

    Letterman has no class and no material so he goes for the very lowest stuff. Not very funny.

  • The Real Royal Emperor

    Amazing. No sense of humor at all. By the lot of you. A bad joke is still a joke.

  • gordonbloyershow

    Poor Dave, he thinks he can get Babara Walters in bed talking like that.

    Stay classy Dave and keep f*cking the help. ;)

  • Harry Flashman

    Yeah. Read your reply.

    Why is this even a topic?
    Dave is a comedian, he is allowed to make fat jokes.
    South Park has been making fun of fat people for years (Michael Moore, Rob Reiner, Sally Struthers).

    People are getting too picky.

    murdoch’s wife isn’t hot she looks like an asian skeletor

    So… let’s see, bashing someone who suffers from headaches by suggesting porn, someone getting a divorce and using her a$$ as the punch line (way to knock someone already down) and an overweight public official who somehow would welcome getting attacked by food- because he is fat. Rich material there Dave, very mature.
    So in that vein here are some suggestions…

    Dear Late-Night script writers:
    Can we see an enchilada thrown to Michele O or perhaps french fries? Or a giant gavel thrown at Pelosi, or Joy Behar eating kittens, or a bunch of interns throwing condoms in Letterman’s face, maybe have Obama throwing spare change to the poor as he flies by in AirForce One on his way to the golf course?  

  • JohnS

    It’s okay to make fat jokes IF you pretend you’re being ironic.

  • JohnS

    It’s also ok because obesity is perceived to be for the most part a prole affliction, and the people who write Letterman’s jokes are all private school twerps from upper class families.

  • JohnS

    Liberals are supposed to be compassionate whereas Conservatives are supposed to be chaste.

  • JohnS

    He’s not nearly as funny as he was 25 years ago. Maybe it’s the context of the culture, but that just wasn’t very funny. It was just mean.

    I cannot
    believe how many right-wing bund members get so upset about a comedian picking
    on Christie; yet have no trouble pointing out Letterman’s not-so-perfect
    history. The truth is Christie has a serious problem with saying “no”
    to the “cookie”. Christie himself created a situation where he
    invites such attacks. The truth is Christie, and his cabal, have no trouble bullying
    others when it suits them, but these same mudslingers cannot stand it when
    others pick on them. If you cannot stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen!

    Sorry,
    it is funny…and probably true. Get a sense of humor.

    It is so
    funny how upset right-wingers get when they are the brunt of the jokes, yet the
    entire right-wing agenda is about picking on liberal pundits and politicians.
    Total hypocrites!

    Letterman is smug and pretentious, and unfunny. And he has so little to be pretentious about.

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_VOEOXKUKCZ4BWPVVJAXP3EXS7M JOHNO

    Letterman is attacking Christie because of the policies he has implemented in New Jersey. However, the people in New Jersey, who pay godawful taxes, support Christie. So, Letterman can’t attack him on the issues, so he does cheap-shot personal attacks.
