Letterman Can Say What He Wants. And I Can Buy What I Want.
UPDATE: As I’ve said before, and I need to say in every post on this matter, the complete list of CBS advertisers at Hillbuzz.
My email to Kendra Walker, Press & Media Contact for Embassy Suites:
I want to thank you for having pulled out as a sponsor of the Letterman Show. You’ve become a corporate hero to those of us who feel that children should be off-limits- especially sexually, which is terrible that that needs to be said.
I just want you to know that Gateway Pundit, which was very recently listed as #17 on a Wikio list of the 100 Top Political blogs, which was featured on the website of ABC News has mentioned the fact that Embassy Suites pulled its advertising from the Letterman Show following the vulgar, obscene, and mean-spirited attacks on Sarah Palin and her daughters.
I have also mentioned it on my blog:

I met a fellow protester yesterday, “Ellen,” who was interviewed by Fox News (and had the dubious honor of being mentioned by Mtv). She told me that she was involved with the 9/12 project, that she was organizing a conference related to the 9/12 project, that she was arranging accommodation for the conference, and that THEY WOULD STAY AT EMBASSY SUITES.
I just want you to know that Embassy Suites’s actions are greatly appreciated.
Letterman can say what he wants. But I don’t have to patronize his corporate sponsors. We’ve still got that much freedom left.
“You know, she reminds me, she looks like the flight attendant who won’t give you a second can of Pepsi. No, you’ve had enough. We’re landing. Looks like the waitress at the coffee shop who draws a little smiley face on your check. Have a nice day.”
“She looks like the dip sample lady at Safeway. She looks like the nurse who weighs you and then makes you sit alone in your underwear for 20 minutes. She looks like the Olive Garden hostess who says, ‘I’m sorry, your table isn’t ready yet.” She looks like infomercial lady who says she made $64,000 a month flipping condos.”
“[S]he looks like the lady at the bakery who yells out ‘44! 45!’ She looks like a real estate agent whose picture you see on the bus stop bench. That’s who she looks like. She looks like the lady who has a chain of cupcake stores…”
“SHE LOOKS LIKE THE OLIVE GARDEN HOSTESS?” THAT’S QUITE A PUT DOWN.
WHY IS SARAH PALIN SO THREATENING? BECAUSE SHE CAN’T BE BOUGHT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, EVERYONE WHO SENT EMBASSY SUITES AND THE OLIVE GARDEN FEEDBACK. WE’RE LETTING THEM KNOW THAT WE’RE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE.
