Being the butt of late-night TV jokes. Here's the least shocking part of an overall unshocking story:
Letterman, the Late Show host on CBS, led the pack in disparity, with 44 jokes at Romney's expense and just nine about Obama, who appeared on his show on September 18. He has openly invited (or challenged) Romney to come on his show, and with the GOP's continued refusal, Letterman has escalated his attacks. It's a bit of a chicken or the egg situation -- it's unclear whether Romney refuses to go on Letterman because of the jokes, or if the jokes are because he won't come on the show.
I wonder if Letterman's slanderous statement that Romney is a felon who didn't pay federal income taxes is counted among those "jokes."
