Jeff Foxworthy, the father of two teenage daughters, says David Letterman's joke was flawed.

The best-selling comedy recording artist in history paid a visit to CNN's "Larry King Live" to talk about Letterman's gaffe.

"As a father of two teenage daughters, it was a flawed joke," Foxworthy said.

Letterman joked last Tuesday that Palin's "daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez" at a recent Yankees game, stirring up an angry reaction from the Palin family. Letterman has since apologized twice for what he called "inappropriate" humor.
