Stephanie Birkitt giving Letterman that special look

Letterman’s audience power is enormous but is it because people are waiting to see the fall

The fun about Dave Letterman’s problems is that there is no way out.

The latest on camera admission is that he has serious problems to deal with on the home front. “She has been horribly hurt by my behavior … I’ve got my work cut out for me,” the “Late Show” host said.

Go figure. Your man has cheated on you many times and confesses on national, no international television. Regina Lasko must be feeling 2 feet tall about now. She’s been fooled, tricked, cheated.

Just another Letterman staffer, she was his girlfriend during many of those affairs.

Virginia Lasko

Regina became David Letterman’s girlfriend in 1989 and moved in with him in 2001. The couple are madly in love and live in North Salem, New York. They married in March, 2009.

Lasko is formerly a production manager and colleague in show business. She has light brown hair and an average build. He does not like to talk about her. Once on the Letterman show while grilling Demi Moore about her latest romance, she turned the tables on him prying into his personal life with Regina Lasko. He squirmed and said “”Nobody cares. I feel like I’ve been punk’d” RightCelebrity

After the shock, it will start to dawn on Lasko that he is not a trustworthy man. She will compare herself to all the other women.

Am I better looking or not? Wittier or not? More or less fun to be with?

The divorce lawyer gets the next call to check the pre-nup.

Everybody was cheating in this deal. Birkitt was living with the CBC producer who allegedly tried to extort money from Letterman.

Birkitt’s angry ex-boyfriend, Robert (Joe) Halderman, delivered at least one of her “Dear Dave” letters to the philandering funnyman as part of what prosecutors call a $2 million shakedown plot.

Halderman, who has been suspended from his producer’s job at “48 Hours,” is charged with threatening to ruin Letterman’s reputation by revealing that he slept with staffers.

Birkitt moved into Halderman’s house in Norwalk, Conn., four years ago, after his bitter April 2004 divorce from the mother of his two kids.

It was not clear when Birkitt wrote the letters. Halderman began to suspect his girlfriend was sleeping with her boss at the end of 2007, the sources said. NY Daily News

That will make for an interesting trial with Letterman being cross-examined on cuckolding Halderman’s girlfriend.

The stories about Letterman’s hypocrisy have started. Letterman made his stock and trade tearing down politicians who cheated on their spouses or had sexual issues like President Clinton, Eliot Spitzer, John Edwards, former U.S. Sen. Gary Hart, South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, Florida Congressman Mark Foley and the list goes on.

Letterman will be the scorn of other talk show hosts and late night comedians until his name is in tatters.

It will be like watching Tammy Fay Baker protest her innocence. After awhile it gets tedious.
