"Letterman Performs Show For Soldiers In Iraq

Host Asks If Anyone Is From Out Of Town

POSTED: 6:02 pm EST December 24, 2004

CAMP TAQADDUM, Iraq -- It was The Late Show with David Letterman in a city far from home. Letterman and his crew put on a Christmas Eve show for Marines in Iraq.

The Marine Corps Web site reported that he asked the crowd at Camp Taqaddum if there was anyone there from out of town.

He also said, "If I wanted to face insurgents, I would've spent Christmas with my relatives."

Letterman was joined by his musical director Paul Shaffer and stage manager Biff Henderson. The show included comedian Tom Dreesen and the band Off the Wall.

Some band members scrambled for cover when a controlled detonation went off. Letterman has also entertained troops in Afghanistan and Baghdad."

1. So, when do Charlie Daniels and Ted Nugent leave for Iraq?

Surely, the U.S.O. would jump at the chance to have two REAL AMERICANS entertain our troops!

So how about, Charlie and Ted? Will you put your money where those gateways to hell called your mouths are? Hmm?????

2. Why does it seem that only those damn Libruls who hate our troops go to

Iraq to entertain them? Al Franken was just there too.
Anyone read any stories about Rush or Sean or Bill or Tucker or any of those other bigmouth idiots being seen anywhere near Baghdad????

3. Bruce Willis went. Arnold Schwarzenegger too, but that with

Schwarzenegger there was an election incentive.
