Why was Leno nominated for an Emmy and not Letterman?



Leno is a shill for the RWers and Dave has more class in his little finger than Leno will ever expect to have. I don't get it.

1. Leno gets more Hollywood-ish guests

3. I really get tired of hearing that Leno is a shill for the RW.
He and his wife give money to the Democrats, not the Republicans. Leno grew up in a blue collar family in very liberal Massachusetts. His wife is an activist for Democratic causes. He describes himself as an Independent.

5. I always read that about him and his spouse.
Hope it's true, but very often his actions betray his background.

4. This won't be a popular post, but it will at least keep with my posting

record so far this night.

I'm surprised either of them were even considered for Emmys.

Letterman - throw shit off a building to watch it splat - looks like Beavis

Leno - ask dumb people dumb questions - looks like Butthead
