Letterman Kidnapping - Bush payback?
Did Frank Kelly have more motive than money for kidnapping Letterman's Son?

I was wondering if this wasn't some kind of payback for Letterman's lack of support for the Iraq war. Recall that Letterman caught CNN/WHitehouse in lies also.

Time to do some googling and see if he is an evangelical Christian or Bush supporter or both...

1. um. that's a stretch.
not everything is political.

Anyway, there are many celebrities with children who were much more vocal in their lack of support.

5. Poor Dave.. Now I know why all of last week was re-runs
Edited on Thu Mar-17-05 07:17 PM by SoCalDem
He's probably been involved in all the police crap.. He waited so long to become a Dad, and now this.. We'll probably never see another picture of or hear anything about little Harry :(

I know that celebrity has always attracted nuts, but Dave has had more than his share..

6. OMG...Thank G-D the acquaintance came forward!
Letterman will never be the same after this, as far as his son goes. He should keep an armed guard on the premises.

Remember that nutjob, wacko woman who stalked Dave for YEARS? :scared: Poor guy. Why him?

As for your question. I put NOTHING past KKKRove. This kind of thing is right up his alley.

13. There are sick people everywhere...glad that it turned out.
I see no connection to Rove or Bushit, except that the economy isn't the greatest and people, when desparate do stupid things, thats the only connection.
