Letterman: 'I Don't Make Jokes About Obama Because I Don't Want FBI Tapping My Phone'

DAVID LETTERMAN: Have you folks been paying attention to what’s going on in Washington? Neither have I. It’s crazy. In a matter of, like, six weeks, three big scandals, and it looks like President Obama and all his buddies in the White House may go to prison. Finally, some good news for the Romney campaign. Yes! It’s about time. People always say this to me, they say, “Hey, Letterman,” they say. “Why don’t you make jokes about Obama?” And I say, “All right, I’ll tell you why. Good question. Oh, you want to know why? Okay. I don’t make jokes about him because I don’t want the FBI tapping my phone, my phone. That’s why.”
