WHY Jay Leno is so unreasonably down on Sarah Palin

By Dennis Marcellino –

I’ve usually enjoyed most of Jay Leno’s monologues. (I stopped watching David Letterman long ago because of how liberal he is). But lately, even up until last night, Jay has been saying some really unreasonable things about Sarah Palin … saying outright in cleverly comedic ways that she is dumb. He’s basing this off of her comments about Paul Revere and 1773. As it turns out, Palin was historically correct on both counts and the mocking and scoffing media and comedians have turned out to be the dumb ones.

But knowing Sarah Palin, his comments are SO unreasonable that I had to wonder why he would want to mock her. It’s not like Jay to be that unreasonable. This is especially puzzling, given that he gave Obama a pass on the dumbest comment I’ve ever heard a politician make, when he said before the 2008 election, “It is wonderful to be back in Oregon. Over the last 15 months, we’ve traveled to every corner of the United States. I’ve now been in 57 states? I think one left to go, Alaska and Hawaii.” (Maybe he was thinking of the fact that there are 57 states in the Organization of the Islamic Conference – OIC).

Regarding Jay, I got my answer as to why he is taking this hard stand against Sarah when I read his Wikipedia page. That page led me to be curious about his wife, Mavis … someone who we never see or hear anything about. So I went to her Wikipedia page, and here’s what it said: Mavis Leno is “A leading feminist in California,” (She was born in San Francisco), “as well as in the United States and internationally, she keeps a low profile in comparison to her husband, choosing instead to work behind the scenes of the non-profit, politically-charged groups she supports and runs.” In 1999, she and her husband, Jay Leno, donated $100,000 to a feminist cause that she chairs. So it makes you wonder how much support they’ve given to other liberal causes. And it makes sense that that influence would spill over into Jay’s humor, both what he speaks for and against.

So my conclusion is that Jay’s wife is influencing his stand against Sarah Palin, who feminists abhor, but who normal men and women find appealing. In fact, that is the case for a lot of the “mainstream” media in this country. They don’t like Sarah Palin because she’s a normal, happy, healthy, religious, conservative woman who is concerned about the very damaging direction this country has gone in morally (including the moral bases for the economic decisions). Therefore, those who have promoted that direction are down on her and use the typical liberal tactics to try to stop her: name calling and belittling. They use those tactics hoping that those sound bites will be parroted by people and become the vox populi and in the process will discredit Sarah Palin. (And unfortunately that works to a degree, which is why we must counter it). They have to resort to those tactics because goodness, truth and social statistics aren’t on their side. Therefore they can’t make their case with calm reasoning. Instead they mock and scoff and make jokes.

But instead of feeling threatened by Sarah Palin, it would be nice if the media and comedians could see it the way many of us see it and how Dennis Miller sees it, when he said on Bill O’Reilly’s show why he likes Sarah Palin, “She’s normal, she’s happy to be normal, and she makes me happy to be normal.” And that ultimately is good for women, as well as men and children and the country in general.

Obama obviously wasn’t correct with his 57 states comment, and yet was still elected president even though on this issue he wasn’t “Smarter Than A 5th Grader.” And the media and comedians are guilty for aiding and abetting that tragedy, as they push their very unhealthy and dysfunctional lifestyles and philosophies.

So it’s good to be informed enough to see through the smoke screens as to what the underlying truths and motives are. And we could certainly use Paul Revere now to say, “The liberals are coming! The liberals are coming!”

    You may be right: Jay lived in my old Nichols Canyon neighborhood before he was famous and I met both he and Mavis many times. She is very quiet, but has a profound effect on him. He definitely listens to her. I too have wondered why he is so down on Palin, but then high profiles are easier targets than those lower on the totem.

    Adrian … Ahh, Lakeport. My wife and I used to vacation at Clear Lake every summer in the mid ’60s. Maybe I should also say, “Ahh, the mid ’60s” :-)

    Not only is Jay Leno’s wife a liberal feminist but he works for NBC and we all know how they work!

    Just like Glenn Beck is leaving Fox to go out on his own to SAY AND DO what HE wants, without some network telling him what he can or can’t do, so Jay Leno has to toe the line or NBC – or his liberal wife- will tell him to take a hike.

    • WASP

      True enough! He’s a typical hollyweed left-coast liberal who HAPPENS to be funny-sometimes. Can’t say how much of this is Jay Leno and how much is his libtard writers/staff.

  • Donald Barnes

    POOR JAY , HE WILL STILL BE DOWN ON S. PALIN
    EVEN WHEN SHE BECOMES PRESIDENT !

    • BUD

      JAY IS NOT ALLOWED TO THINK FOR HIMSELF.

      • DBak61

        Behind the scenes Mavis influences Jay, like he really needs it, to help drive the liberal agenda: Dumb down America. For get the facts; Palin is stupid. That’s the libtard mantra.
        They don’t want people actually searching for facts and knowing real history instead of their revised and edited for agenda version: old white slave owners created this evil country on a constitution of flawed assumptions.

      • Rocky

        I agree.

      Sarah will become the next Senator from the Great State of Arizona.
      She bought a house here and will be a good offset to RINO Sen McNugget

  • NoBHussein

    Jay is gay and his wife is a lesbian. They have a marriage of convenience. That’s why they have no kids.

    As a comedian, Jay Leno isn’t too smart by his insults (not jokes) towards Sarah Palin. Calling her an “airhead” made me lose a lot of respect for Leno.

    He continues his bashing of GOP Presidential candidates with Tim Pawlenty, be demeaning him as dull and unimpressive. Leno should talk — as he himself is dull and unimpressive — and instead of humor, he can only prevail with raw insults. He is even making a very dry David Letterman, as an alternate choice, to change the channel to his show. Letterman does not display the callous attacks presented by Leno.

    • Leithel1

      Jay Leno isn’t a comedian. Comedians are funny and make me laugh. Jay Leno makes me throw up. David Letterman just makes me sick. I had rather watch the inside of my eyelids than either of them.

      Actually I always thought Letterman was meaner, which is why I stopped watching him years ago.

    Have you all read where the atheist George Soros, Obama’s advisor, has donated so much money to over 30 media outlets that he has bought their allegiance?. Soros is the 13th wealthiest person in the world…not the U.S., the world. There have been cartoons on the net that show Soros as the puppetmaster and Obama as the puppet. If you are not familiar with George Soros, type in his name at research or “The Man Who Broke the Bank of England.” Jay Leno probably works for a media controlled by Soros.

    • Patty

      You know how he broke the Bank of England don’t you? He used their ATM’S LOL

  • waldo

    Used to prefer Jay over Dave but lately there is no reason to change the channel as the results are the same. Bashing Sarah is pathetic. She is such a good person and misunderstood that I actually hope that she doesn’t subject herself to the cruel nightmare of politics. She should be congratulated and blessed for her contribution. The left wing amoral democrats hate her because she represents something they will never have or appreciate: Love of life and morals and faith, and commitment upon which this country was built. It is going to be a bumpy road in 2012.

    • alan g

      I will give Jay the benefit of the doubt, if he comes up with a counter to the idiots who investigated the emails. If not, Jay is toast to me.

    • Stagemgr

      I find very few in the Hollywood scene that aren’t of a Democrat’s mind. That is why the state is broke. And…they never learn!!!They still do the same thing over and over and think it will change. Too many of them influence too many in Washington. They don’t learn either.

      • Sickofthe BS

        You can’t fix stupid!

      • Jerry Rieker

        You are right. Most are liberal in California. That is why they are bankrupt, can’t pay their bond obligations, and businesses are moving out. We in Arizona are starting to see a lot of them and Texas a lot more. We are both right to work states. I like Jay Leno but unless he lays off Sara Palin I will E-mail his bosses 50 times a day to fire him. I will spread bad rumors about him like the Democrats do against Republicans. So Jay you better clean up your mouth. Understand?

    • Darcey

      They don’t misunderstand her – they’re afraid of her, just like the devil is afraid of the light. All demoncraps know the difference between right and wrong, they’ve just selfishly chosen to sell their souls for a short time and a few bucks rather than be accountable. Eternity is FOREVER, and their fame and fortune is less than a split second, comparatively.

  • http://bluelight.com Barry

    To me, it’s a shame that Mavis led (or, is leading) him astray. As a car/motorcycle guy, he’s on the right side of the tracks. As far as his wife’s political views, (if true) leave them in his wife’s purse, along with his balls. I suspect that in divorce proceedings, she could rival George Soros, “the spooky dude” in wealth for social justice causes. (if true)
    Political and religious jokes just don’t impress me, especially when they are slanderous. (fact)

    • Patty

      I think Jay has been sucking in too many fumes from all his cars exhaust pipes.

  • TEDEUM

    Who is Jay Leno?

    • Patty

      • Leithel1

        Who?

  • Frank Bates

    I have not watched Jay Leno in years, have always considered him a poor model of Johnny Carson, who I consider the father of talk shows, I consider his death a tragedy and will thank him for the humor that he has brought to television. I don’t stay up that late anymore anyway.
    Like to watch “The Wheel” and “Jeoperdy: and the news. Frank

    • BimBam

      I never could stand Jay Leno, you know the face. Sort of like Jason Scott Lee, can’t stand the face. Ughh!

      Looks count ya know. You just gotta have the “look”.

  • Julie

    I find it, let’s say “interesting” that Leno talks bad about Palin … One of my friends confirmed that Leno dates her niece when he’s in town. Seems the Obama peeps hate people who try to be upstanding and moral. Just take a look at Obama’s requirements to be in his cabinet, etc. The more you donate, or the more evil, immoral … just plain vile, he will find a place or create a new position in the government for you.

  • http://yahoo.com tod

    He’s Barry’s buddy ,a leftist all the way.And never had any real talent,I could never figure out how he got the job in the first place.Now it looks he got the job from Soros.

  • JimMe

    Excuse me. Who is this Jay Leno you all are talking about? Dave Letterman I know. He runs a bowling alley in Waukegan I think. My favorite late night host is Steve Allen but I haven’t seen much of him recently. Nor that Hi Ho Steverino character.

    • Barbara

      Steve Allen was the first and possibly the best.
      Johnny Carson was better than the current crop but not as good as Steve.

  • BimBam

    Why do liberals hate Sarah Palin.

    Liberals cannot stand anything WHOLESOME! Especially good old American wholesomeness.

    To rub salt into the wounds she is a real true-and-blue American, she is an American beauty and she is successfully an American! Can anything get more wholesome that that?

  • wanda

    who is leno,who is leno,who is leno???????? LOL

      Don’t know who he is but I do know what he is not. He is not An American. He is a Canadian that could not make it up there so he moved to California where everything unAmerican is funny.

    JAY LENO IS A LET DOWN. HE IS NOT WHAT HE PRETENDS TO BE. I DON’T KNOW WHAT HE IS. BUT HE IS NO BOB HOPE ON THE FRONT LINE. HE HAS THE CLOUT TO HELP THE TROOPS BUT THE CUP IS EMPTY. THERE IS AN UNDERLYING MESSAGE BEING FOMENTED BY THE MEDIA THAT SARAH IS DUMB. BERNIE MCGURK ON IMUS IN ONE 4 MINUTE SEGMENT DEFENDING SARAH SAID THREE TIMES SHE WAS DUMB.

    GET READY TO TAKE YOUR COUNTRY BACK. TONIGHT THE COMMUNISTS ARE SORTING 25,000 EMAILS AND PLANTING A FEW TO STOP A WOMAN WHO MAKES A GOOD MOOSE STEW. PROTECTS CHILDREN WITH DEEDS NOT SCRIPT, LOVES HER COUNTRY FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA AND IS JUDGED BY A BALD HEADED LIBERAL SIDE KICK OF A DOPER WHO PUTS WOMEN DOWN AND SEEKS THE FAVOR OF AL SHARPTON, HE SAYS SHE IS NOT TOO BRIGHT. I THINK IF I COULD TURN USD 100,000 INTO TWENTY-MILLION IN TWO YEARS PEOPLE WOULD CALL THAT GENIUS. IF SHE CAN DO THE SAME FOR THE US.GOV.THAT IS A HOME RUN. BERNIE PRETENDED TO DEFEND SARAH BUT THREE TIMES HE INJECTED SHE IS NOT TOO BRIGHT. BY WHOSE STANDARDS? JUST BECAUSE YOUR HEAD IS SHAPED LIKE A BULB BERNIE DOESN’T MAKE YOU A 60 WATTER.

    IF I WAS ON THE BATTLEFIELD AND I HAD TO PICK SARAH OR BERNIE TO GO GET AMMO. I’M PICKING SARAH. TO IMUS WHO BRAGS ABOUT BEING IN THE MARINE CORPS AS A BUGLER I ASK. WHO TOLD YOU THAT WAS A BUGLE?

    I HAVE TO SIGN OFF NOW THE OBAMA TRIANGULATION TRUCK IS STOPPING IN FRONT OF THE HOUSE AND THE LIGHTS JUST WENT OUT. REMEMBER ELIAN GONZALEZ. GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME A CORN BEEF ON RYE. I’M DATING ANTHONY WIENER’S THERAPIST

  • Eric Miklas

    Not to mention the pass EVERYONE has given Odumba on his recent unemployment comment. You know, the one where he blamed unemployment on automation technology (in particular ATM machines)! This is one of the most idiotic things to come out of his mouth in recent time and portrays his TRUE intelligence (in his case, lack of intelligence)! I wonder if he’d like to see Front-End Loaders and Bulldozers done away with? It only takes one person to run them but they replaced 100′s if not 1000′s of workers! He’s not just dumb, he’s completely unaware of his true ignorance on sooooooooo many subjects!

    • Darcey

      That’s exactly the reason the mulatto muslim monster and his minions are so intent on taking our country down – it’s all about jobs!! The moron who occupies the Oval Office (when he’s not too busy wasting Americans’ money on vacations) says we Americans must be more shovel-ready and faster! Forget the front-end loaders and bulldozers, the marxist dictator can order his peasants to toil with earth-friendly shovels!!

  • rose

    I think Sara Palin is one of the best in this country .All of the old whore women and and the filth that ride them ,know how stinky& EVIL they are .Why don’t they throw that lousy soros out of this country he’s no citizen.JAY ugly stinks, talk about dumb most of the hollywood freaks are to stupid,the DEVIL had to help them with the money situation,wait till they pass from this world.I notice cheapo leno never helps the troops & neither does UGLY letterman .Most of hollywood sucks!They’re the most GREEDY SELFISH BUMS living !

    • BimBam

      Wow! The dog won’t play with you today, huh?

      But that’s ok, you are right on the money. I don’t know why the assos get like that, but they do. Maybe too much undeserved adulation?

      I don’t care much for Leno or Jason Scott Lee, one of the most unattractive actors I have ever seen. Sort of like Ray Milan. You don’t care too much too see them.

      Letterman, is ok if it weren’t for his buckteeth.

  • thomas d

    I quit watching leno and lettermen years ago. There is no humor in either man. Johnny was a true entertainer. Sarah Palin is ten times the American those bums will ever be.

    I quit watching Leno years ago.
    Pandering to the liberals may prove to be a drop in ratings. At least Carson always did it in a “funny” way and everyone laughed no matter democrat or republican, it was done in fun.
    Time for real writers, not the libs sarcasm for which they have an intolerance for anyone who disagrees with them. They accuse conservatives of racism because its the last thing they have against the truth of God’s existance. Some people in Hollywood are making a film that God is Evil. Some churches are now saying that God is evil. If your church starts saying that, get the hell out, They are part of the great falling away and you don’t want to go where they’re going.

    A mentor of mine once taught me that when you judge another – you define not the person you are judging, but rather yourself. So now we know who and what Jay Leno is. He should also check out the Bible, “Judge not, less ye be judged.” Leno should get smart and resign to join the Obama Administration for another person hired. Incidentally, I have never wasted my time or damaged my health staying up so late to watch a show where Jay Leno appears. FCS

  • Wayne Bauer

    Why try to makes (news) journalism out of something that isn’t. To waste any time on Leno’s opinion of Palin is beyond sick. The performing whores latch onto and abuse everything of attention they can. They don’t have any moral judgement and hardly any common sense so to try to make ma subject of Leno’s thoughts on Palin, a person of real character, the 2 don’t belong on same page.

  • Stockbroker

    I find it ironic that last night Leno made a joke about Newt Gingrich being led around by the nose by his wife. It appears that he has a ring through his nose and Mavis has a firm hand on the rope it’s tied to.

  • http:Windowslive kcatt

    Well you don’t want my slant on Jay Leno.. Never liked him as a comedian or a talk show host. And he appears to be a tight wad to boot. Sure likes to be decadent with all his antique cars etc. too. And his wife Mavis is { to my idea} a liberal rebel rouser and homely to boot. No wonder she dislikes pretty Sarah. I don’t understand why Palin would even entertain the idea of appearing on his show. I’d snub him . He’s the dummy ;;;;if you ask me,,, as well as being just plain petty and stingy as far as charities go. Rather put his money into worthless causes such as his mates Liberal causes. And as for Obummer’s being stupid? He sure surpasses Sarah in that dept. Makes you really wonder about the idiots that voted for him… Hmmmm?

  • George Sullivan

    One of Jay’s buddies is Bill Maher. Need anymore be said. I to refuse to watch Letterman. Schmuck is the word for him. I refuse to watch anything that Garofalo is in. Punt is the name for her!!!!!!!!!!!

  • anton

    The fact that he demeans Ms. Palin is sickening enough, but when the audience laughs along with him makes it too much for me to bear.

  • http:Windowslive kcatt

    Oh and Thomas/// ditto about Johnny;; a true showman and was really funny to boot. There hasn’t and probably won’t ever be anyone like he was. And I wouldn’t waste my time watching boobs like Lettermen and Leno. Letterman acts like an old letch. And leno is just plain yucky!

  • CBT

    Before Jay took the earlier time slot, he made jabs about his network. I think that he had to make a deal before he got his old slot back. Since then I no longer find him funny nor do I like some of the guests that he has on. I like some of the musical guests and only watch the show when one of my favorites will be performing. He should leave the show before his reputation is totally ruined.
