Maher on Leno: Bush a 'Dolt' and 'a Gilligan Who Cannot Find His Ass with Two Hands'

To laughter, cheers and applause from the Burbank audience of NBC's Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Bill Maher on Tuesday night issued a litany of denigrating insults at the intelligence of President George W. Bush, as if his decisions are not in accord with many experienced experts. Maher pointed out how MSNBC's “Joe Scarborough did a whole week of panel discussions on whether he was an idiot.” Maher elaborated: “The people who were defending him were saying, 'well, he's just inarticulate.' But inarticulate doesn't explain foreign policy. I mean, it's not that complicated. The man is a rube. He is a dolt. He is a yokel on the world stage. He is a Gilligan who cannot find his ass with two hands. He is a vain half-wit who interrupts one incoherent sentence with another incoherent sentence.”

Maher appeared as a guest to plug his weekly Friday night HBO show, Real Time with Bill Maher, which returned last week to the pay-cable channel. On his program the Friday before the 2006 election, Maher warned his viewers that if they vote Republican then “you vote to enable George Bush to keep ruling as an emperor -- a retarded child emperor, but an emperor.” (NewsBusters item with video)

The comments on the February 20 Tonight Show, picking up after Leno insisted Democrats are no harder to make fun of than are Republicans:

Bill Maher: “Political comedy is effective in inverse proportion the competence of the leader.”

Leno: “Well, that's true. That's true.”

Maher: “In other words, the bigger the fool, the easier for us. And this man, come on, let's get real. I mean, Joe Scarborough did a whole week of panel discussions on whether he was an idiot [audience laughter ]. Seriously. And when you've lost Scarborough Country, I mean -- and I think the science is in on this question.”

Leno: “Yeah, yeah.”

Maher: “I mean, I think he is -- the people who were defending him were saying, 'well, he's just inarticulate.' But inarticulate doesn't explain foreign policy. I mean, it's not that complicated. The man is a rube. He is a dolt. He is a yokel on the world stage. He is a Gilligan who cannot find his ass with two hands [audience applause]. He is a vain half-wit who interrupts one incoherent sentence with another incoherent sentence [cheers and applause]. And I hope I'm not piling on, Jay.”

Maher soon added: “Okay, and this is the problem with the Democrats, is that the alternative actually would've been a better President both times. Al Gore would have been a better President. John Kerry would have been a better President. Not because they are Democrats. Because they read.”

I don't know what is worse...

I don't know what is worse...1. That so many people's politics are influenced by failed comedians (like Maher, O'Donnell, Behar, etc, etc, etc), or 2. That people/broadcasting companies pay failed comedians millions of dollars for these waste-of-time shows when they could be using the air-time to show things that cost less (like shows in syndication) or other high interest shows that appeal to wider audiences.

Maybe I should try to be a comedian...I'd definitely fail at that, would I get my own show then?

Gun Safety Tip #8: No matter how responsible he seems, never give your gun to a monkey. (www.imao.us)

Not as straight-forward as you may think....

Yes, Bill Maher isn't a great comedian, but he does sell out his comedy circuit. The same can be said of Dennis Miller. He is also a smart guy and he also sells out his comedy shows, but he is still better-liked as a pundit than a comic. The only difference between Maher and Miller is their political leanings. They are both bright guys who can get a little nasty when they lash out.

Ann Coulter and Bill Maher are good friends. Maher is also very close friends with Dennis Miller. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,257720,00.html

Look past Maher's Bush-bashing though. He's one of the strongest voices calling for a crackdown on Islamic militants. He is the among the strongest voices for slamming Islam and mocking the assertion that it is a "religion of peace". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EKOw7VoRiog

Bush is a social conservative, but he is not a fiscal conservative which is why he drives me nuts and he deserves a little bashing form time to time. Bush's foreign policy has also been a disaster, but don't take my word for it... take the word of the recently-departed William F Buckley Jr, a hero of mine: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/07/22/eveningnews/main1826838.shtml

"I think Mr. Bush faces a singular problem best defined, I think, as the absence of effective conservative ideology — with the result that he ended up being very extravagant in domestic spending, extremely tolerant of excesses by Congress," Buckley said.

People in this thread criticize guys like Bill Maher for advocating violence against Cheney (which he didn't, BTW http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGsHB7Hjpi4 - as you can see, he was speaking out in favour of free speech.. we *are* in favour of that aren't we?) and someone on this list actually suggested that someone should put Maher into the crosshairs of a rifle scope. Uhh, so you're against someone who allegedly *advocates* violence but you're in favour of the real thing?

Maher deserves a lot of criticism, but let's leave the smearing and hysteria and inaccurate information to the left wing who are better at it. We, on the right, can win any debate with the facts. Maher advocates a lot of things we don't agree with, but he does have a good strategy for fighting the war on terror. It starts with addressing our wasteful use of oil, stop turning a blind eye towards Saudi Arabia's deliberate radicalization of its populace, and to allow security services to adopt profiling. As he points out, an 80-year old grandmother from Duluth should not be receiving the same examination at the airport screening desk as a young male from northwestern Pakistan on a temporary visa who is fresh from a visit to Kandahar.

 Cheers! Mike.

Good 'Ol Bill

Bill Maher is about as funny and intelligent as... DC Cab.

When a liberal speaks, the truth is busy elsewhere.

You'd only get your own show

You'd only get your own show if you were a foaming at the mouth liberal with a bad case of BDS. If you're a failed comedian who's a republican....forget it.

Did Maher forget that Bush ma

Did Maher forget that Bush made better grades in college than Kerry? Just one of those "Inconvenient Truths".

Well, cobra, that's one of

Well, cobra, that's one of those truths that gets left by the wayside when......well, in a nutshell, why let truth get in the way of a good Bush-bash?

This canard is right up there with the one we were discussing here yesterday...the one that says Bush "killed" the Kyoto treaty. You know, that treaty that Clinton wouldn't send to the Senate because he knew it wouldn't be ratified. The one that the Senate, on its own in during the Clinton administration, brought to a vote and rejected 98-0. But to the Libs Bush is a dummy, Bush killed Kyoto; that's their story and they're stickin' to it!

I'm not a huge fan of G.W. Bu

I'm not a huge fan of G.W. Bush. He definitely doesn't have the influence or capacity as someone like Ronald Reagan or Abraham Lincoln. HOWEVER, I don't think he is as stupid as most liberals think. If he is so stupid, why is he in the White House for his second term? Why did he go to Yale? Why did he get accepted into the Governership of Texas? Why was he able to fly planes? Why does he stay in good shape when other politicians get soft and fat? Why has his wife stayed with him for so long? etc...

The liberal, seed-popping, San Francisco democrats will ALWAYS say G.W. Bush is an idiot because of his Texas/Maine/Southern accent style. Isn't this in of itself hypocritical discrimination????

Exactly, if Bush is a dolt, a

Exactly, if Bush is a dolt, a "retarded emporer", what does that say about both  Al Gore and John Kerry who couldn't beat him in two successive elections? An 'inconvenient' fact Maher overlooks. Personally, I found both  Gore and John F'n Kerry to be  heavily scripted buffoons who constantly slipped over words and at times, especially in the case of Kerry, were downright incoherent. The media knew it too but like anything resembling good news from Iraq, they deliberately ignored it.

Ph.D

Gee, I missed Maher's Ph.D.  What a total loser this guy is.  The only reason I can think of that libs ever watched his "show" (if you want to call it that) was that it was one large diatribe circle jerk.  I'd love to see this moron's bona fides and grades.

It is also always a chuckle t

It is also always a chuckle to realize this "retard" managed to trick or fool the smartest woman in the world (along with a large number of other super-intelligent Dumbocatics) into voting to authorize military action in Iraq.  If Bush is so stupid, what does that say about these people?

"A communist is someone who reads Marx.  An anti-communist is someone who understands Marx."  Ronald Reagan

Maher on Bush

  Very interesting, Maher calls Bush an Idiot etc. and guess what, no problem,nobody in the media,will pick up on that and comdemn Maher.

  Bush calls Barack Obama's  "Articulate" and the media is all over Bush for being a racist.

Maher and Rosie are of the

Maher and Rosie are of the same ilk. Childish name calling before a canned audience. Perhaps as a child, Maher was forced to eat too much dog excrement on the playground for being such an ass. Look at his teeth.

I always wanted to get into politics, but I was never light enough to
make the team.

"Maher and Rosie are of

"Maher and Rosie are of the same ilk."

Not exactly.

Maher gets his foreign policy expertise from his Playmate friends at the Mansion, but Rosie just wishes she could. 

Wait until Obama loses BIG ti

Wait until Obama loses BIG time. Then the media will have a "News Special" about how the nation is still hate-filled and bigotted. Yup, the Republican's will take the heat for not going easy on Obama and caused him to lose his affirmative right to the presidency.

yes

Ahhh, donsaliman, you've gotten to the cruxt of it.

 To parady: A mom heard a tremendous fight going on in her young sons' bedroom. She entered and demanded to know what had started the fight. One of the boys looked at her and said, "Mom, it all started when he hit me back".

Now, it also follows that in dealing with all this so-called "inarticulateness" and how it applies to those south of the Mason Dixon, there are very common speech qualities that apply to every locale and race. We all know what they are and to get into them would bring about charges of racism from some groups but it is OK to label a conservative with them. "It all started when he hit me back".

FURTHER, did (YALL) know that the greatest leader in all of history was afflicted with a terrible speech impediment? (No it was not Bill Clinton and his forked tongue). It was so terrible that he had to depend on his brother Aaron to do most of his talking.

His name was Moses.

Bigotry

Maher is merely an ideological bigot. He never engages in honest debate. He invites people of opposing views on his show, but never engages their arguments (I suspect he can’t grasp them), then he mocks their points of view with cheap shots. The he cuts to a commercial, to protect himself from any fair response. He’s the ideological equivalent of Archie Bunker.

I watched the first few minutes of his segment on Leno, then I did the only decent thing: I changed the channel. I used to subscribe to HBO so I could watch the Sopranos, and I’d occasionally forget myself and try to watch his program for a few minutes. Every time, I found myself going four or five minutes before his bigotry turned me off. I’ve since gotten rid of HBO, because I don’t want to subsidize that sort of nonsense.

yes

Well said, KC.

I seriously would like to pou

I seriously would like to pound Mahers head in with a hammer, if we lived in any other country in the world he would be under the gulag right now.. I just got done watching his blathering, hatefilled, gibberish, and I have came away from it wishing rectal cancer on he and his entire family.... I have always disliked the guy but I hope some unhinged maniac put the cross hairs of his sniper rifle right between Maher squinty eyes and pulls the trigger...

Truely, Maher is a total piece of dog shit on the shoe of the American zeitgeist........... What was equally as bad was the crowds cheering reaction to scumbag Maher calling the president a 'half witted, retarded dolt, who couldn't find his ass with his two hands' (etc, etc)......... America is sick.....Make no mistake, our great country is dying...... Listening to people cheer Mahers treasonous, filthy, garbage, makes me believe that our counrty has no hope for the future....

Don't worry about the audienc

Don't worry about the audience. I have been to these shows before while visitiing L.A. and New York. They all have a little RED sign that pops up above the live audience saying "APPLAUSE". Plus, you must remember, any good conservative would NOT be at the Jay Leno show when Maher was going to be around simply because he sucks. Also, any good conservative would be polite enough not to hoot and hollar like the moronic "Queen Latifa-Crowd" of the Leno show. I would be MUCH more concerned with why Leno had Maher on his show to begin with, considering Maher is no longer a comedian but instead is a propagandist.

Well Said Rex

Well said, Rex. I used to think better of Jay Leno but now I know better. He is just like Letterman. He lets all these stars spout off nonsense with no challenge whatsoever. Pathetic. And to the crowd who was cheering Maher's diatribe, I didn't see it, glad I didn't see it, and if I had seen it I probably would have cried, screamed, or thrown the remote at the television. There are a lot of sick, twisted, numbskull, nitwhit Americans out there who love anyone who tears the President apart. Very appalling. Probably those cheering are about as juvenile, immature lackwits as Maher is. I certainly hope this wasn't the majority of Americans who voted in the Dems. If it is, our country really is in serious trouble and not the kind that any fake politicians like Shrillary and Obummer can fix. Only these people can fix their messed up, hate-filled lives. Really just sad.

Maher is one of those few lefties that can really get my blood boiling....The guy is a nobody, a failed 'comedian' that is lucky in his hate of George W. Bush, lucky to have found a venue at HBO to vent his seditious and treasonous drivel.....I would welcome seeing  Maher lay his dick on the table and compare resumes with President Geroge W. Bush, I think tiny would come up just a 'bit' short......

Maher wants to push the absolute limit of gutter mouthing the President and presidency.....He gets on shows where is barely, if at all, challenged and brings on guest that can be booed into submission.....Maher is a coward, a fool, and a pathetic clown.....I would give anything to get in a 'real' debate with Bill, I think he would wilt like week old lettuce.... 

Let's see, Mr. Bush has a

Let's see, Mr. Bush has a degree from Yale, an MBA from Harvard, and flew the then advanced F-102 interceptor with the Texas Air National Guard, as well as being Governor of Texas and President of the United States of America.

So, how about Maher? English degree from Cornell. He has appeared in such movies as "Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death" and "Pizza Man." His nose is large enough to serve as a hanger for a B-52. So who's the idiot? Who's the fool? Who's the ugly wannabe that will be quickly forgotten when his time is past?

Plus GWB has a beautiful wife

Plus GWB has a beautiful wife and family, something Bill obviously lacks. You ever notice a lot of these liberals who are vicious against conservatives don't have stable relationships themselves? Besides Bill, another one that popped into my head was Janeane Garofalo. No one wants to get near them because they're so bitter, neurotic and dysfunctional, and they love to tear down other people who are successful and happy with themselves.  

Plus GWB has a beautiful wife and family

Where's he been hiding them? Must be with the Iraq WMDs!

gopgirl...Your post was a wel

gopgirl...

Your post was a well needed breath of fresh air. I can't remember the last time I heard someone say something kind about our president. I too like the man, and I like his family. In fact, with the exception of Jebs troubled daughter, I would ask any of them to hold a hundred bucks of mine for 10 years and feel comfortable in knowing that my hundred bucks would be waiting for me. All that to say I think they are good, decent, god fearing people!

Somewhere in this thread someone mentioned that the left hates Bush because he is a Christian (not verbatem, but close). I agree with this observation 100%.

I wonder, does this goof-ball

I wonder, does this goof-ball actually think it is funny to call someone a "retarded child?" Has he ever loved a child who is retarded? Apparently not. And apparently he thinks he is better than the retarded, to make jokes that imply it is something to be embarrassed about.

Mr. Wanna-be-a-comedian sure has no problem finding his hind quarters, nor does he have a problem presenting it for all the world to see. I guess it was 'show and tell' night on Jay Leno and I missed it.

"I wonder, does this goo

"I wonder, does this goof-ball  actually think it is funn to call someone a "retarded child?""

Good for you DJ..  this is a really good point and one that Leno wouldn't EVER have the stones to throw back at Maher.  BTW, you are too, too kind to refer to him as a goof-ball.  He's a totally despicable person.  IMO, his initials, BM, do wonders for me in describing his character. 

::: laughing ::: Oh, gosh, I

rimsky --::: laughing ::: Oh, gosh, I had not even noticed his initials. I guess he really is a walking talking "BM." Isn't he? hehe....

Ms. Smith, for once I agree w

Ms. Smith, for once I agree with you, and would like to elaborate on the first sentence of your last paragraph: Mahr has no problem finding his "hind-quarters" because his head is stuffed there 24/7.  If that were not the case, he couldn't find it with a topo map, a GPS locator and a hired guide.

"A communist is someone who reads Marx.  An anti-communist is someone who understands Marx."  Ronald Reagan

MikeB --See? I knew we could

MikeB --See? I knew we could find something that we agree on. :o)

Maher has used the "R&qu

Maher has used the "R" word before. Here's what he had to say back when he had his show on ABC:

"But I've often said that if I had — I have two dogs — if I had two retarded children, I'd be a hero. And yet the dogs, which are pretty much the same thing. What? They're sweet. They're loving. They're kind, but they don't mentally advance at all.... Dogs are like retarded children."

Del Dolemonte --Oh, my goodne

Del Dolemonte --Oh, my goodness! He is a terrible man!

And I bet he goes after people who make comments against homosexuals.

Something tells me that he is a hug-a-tree, save-a-whale, protect-a-homo, self-appointed judge of anyone who has a life outside of his little two-dimensional jack-in-the-box world!

Hyphenation Alert!

o-m-f-g-i-m-r-o-t-f-l-m-f-a-o!

bill maher

I often pray for the salvation of Bill Maher's soul.  I truly want him to know the peace of knowing Jesus.  He is so angry and so blind.  I know President Bush is not perfect, but neither am I.  I find great comfort in the fact that he is a born again Christian and I believe that he truly seeks to do what he believes is best for the USA.  I  believe the root of the problem that liberals have with President Bush is the fact that he is a believer in Jesus.

Sweet.

Lilly, you are the purest.  Unfortunately, I can't be that forgiving.  I pray each night that Satan will call his contract and drag him down into the fire and brimstone of an unending hell!  It is after all where he'd be happiest!

Billy Mahar

Rexzeitgiest (sp) and Marvyl (sp) both nailed it!

I'm as angry as a muslim! I'm ready to welcome a new view on violence!

If you stand up on TV and call our elected leaders names like that, especially in wartime, I'm ready to "not care" if someone hurts you. I'm ready, in fact, to celebrate your pain!

I'm tired of " The New Royalty", in other words, Famous People, getting rich on hating me and my country. In fact, I'll admit right here that my hatred for Bill M. is as deep as his hatred of GWB, Christians, most whites, and all of these "phobes." The difference is that GWB was ELECTED by America. Who voted for the celebs?

In fact, If some nasty terrorist were to start blowing up media outlets, like the offices of the producers of his show for example, I would not be suprised or really concerned. They made their bed by insulting most Amereicans and betting on the fact that we'll all continue to play by the rules and not call them on their treason. Now they can sleep in it.

So, in closing, I think I'm nearly ready for a new show on HBO:

"The Bashing of Bill Mahar's Face with a Ball-Peen Hammer Show!"

God almighty I would love to

God almighty I would love to run into Maher at the local watering hole on a tequila night....I would flush his head down the toilet, like a freshman on the first day of high school.......I can almost hear his high pitched squeal of fear when Maher realizes his body guard is crashed in the limo as I cinch him up by the nap of his scrawny neck and start dragging him toward the mens room........Ahhhh, one can dream.....

The 'Zeitgiest' (ie) is from a liberal blog I and my co-horts terrorized into submission, I keep that spelling here and at my own blog....the 'Politcal War Zone.blogspot'.....

  

Um... sorta like Kerry and 'e

Um... sorta like Kerry and 'end up in Iraq?'  Or 'What I meant to say...'.

But ...

He is a vain half-wit who interrupts one incoherent sentence with another incoherent sentence [cheers and applause].

Pretty much insert any politican's name for 'He' here.  But my currrent nominee would be John Murtha.  Hillary runs a close second and for the best would be John Edwards, hire/fire/hire/fire....

Maher may not be funny but he's articulate.

ACA

...

Hillary Clinton says: "I want to take those profits."

The problem is every liberal

The problem is every liberal can say anything they want, right or wrong and there is not a soul in the MSM or Hollywood that will call them on it. If GWB was re-elected, Robert Redford was going to move out of the country [he didn't], Asshole, er I mean Alex Baldwin was going to move out of the country [he didn't], and Hillary Clinton said that when she gave GWB the authorization to go to war she really did not think that he would. Liberals don't understand the concept of someone saying something and ACTUALLY MEANING IT. By the way I left out "I did not have sexual relations with that woman."

The Arrogant Bill Maher, born genius

Bill Maher is one arrogant arshole.  Haven't we evolved enough to stop calling everyone we disagree with stupid.  I think he proves himself no smarter than the man he disparages.

call

I have a friend who watches this site but chooses not to contribute. He just called me and was beside himself over this one.

 He said that some time back his mother-in-law, who is in her seventies, ran into Maher out in public. According to my friend, she politely admonished him about his crass and rude behavior regarding President Bush. He responded by sticking his middle finger in her face and telling her to ({paraphrasing} - go perform a sexual act on herself). This was all said in front of a crowd of people, including chidren.

What a man!

I would have given a years wages to have been present! I would have done my duty as a man and gladly accepted the consequences.

it's hard to understand

I find it hard to see why anybody ever watches Leno anymore??? Is it logical for us to vent all this spleen and then return to a Jay Leno show anytime soon? The obvious criticism of these rotten shows is EVERYONE'S immediate boycott, with a full announcement of the reason why. I don't think a quick letter to the Op Ed pages of any city newspaper is too much trouble, or even a paid classified ad, saying:

Never more shall my famiy and I tune into a Jay Leno program for any reason, not even if he invites the greatest personalities on earth. By having given a forum to the despicable Bill Maher and other gross and indecent guests Jay forfeits his claim to all the popularity he once had. This is hereby brought to the attention of Jay Leno's sponsors, whom we hold equally responsible. We feel the American mainstream public has put up with this abuse long enough.

there was a "thing"

there was a "thing" posted years ago on the internet that compared the educational background of bush and his administration with those of the celebrities doing all the name-calling ... it is hilarious.   http://www.fortliberty.org/smarter.shtml

the sad thing is that millions of americans sit and watch people like maher make such inane statements about this nation's president on a major television show without even the slightest repercussion.  how pathetic we must look in the eyes of the rest of the world ... the arrogance and ignorance displayed daily by celebrities (some of the most-watched people in the world) is a total disgrace.  the fact that the 3rd grade-level namecalling and scatalogical humor regarding our nation's leaders is considered "acceptable" is disgusting.  the irony is that i actually think some of these celebrities truly believe they could run this country ... kind of like the way football fans think they can coach because they're good at Madden 2006.

"at some point people need to realize that there is more to being an american than just exercising his/her rights" - me 

Maher

I believe the only way one can look at people like Maher, O'Donnell and their ilk is with the knowledge they exist and always will-- like cockroaches. Keep anything clean, such as your mind, far away from them and swat them whenever you see them. Instruct your children about them and continue to speak out. When the light of truth shines on them, they scatter.

NEVER,NEVER trust a liberal

Whose audience has the bigger collection of kooks, freaks, dupes, fools and idiots: Bill Maher's, Jon Stewart's or Stephen Colbutt's?

The liberal press has been de

The liberal press has been demonizing prominent Republicans for decades, from Ford to our current president.  This is nothing new.  Apparently, we are not "nuanced" or sophisticated enough to see that liberal policies, which have a history of failure, really do work while conservative policies, with a demonstrated history of success, are just the concoction of small minds.  Gingrich, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, etc....  The real challenge is to find a conservative leader who has not been demonized to some degree by the media.

"from Ford..."Don't

"from Ford..."

Don't you mean Nixon? Yeah, he was a son-of-a-b**** in his own right and pretty much demonized himeself, but he was getting results in Vietnam after Johnson had botched everything over there for 6 years.

I'm not even sure why this guy really matters anymore.  He's a loser.  Guys like Maher, Baldwin, Cloney, and girls like Behar, ODonnell and Queen Latifah won't even be a footnote in history.  Their audiences are nothing but brain-dead leftists who have no frame of reference or facts.  Just spew out the Bush-hatred so everybody can clap.  I don't watch his show because I know what I'm going to hear, plus it isn't even funny.  And BTW, the more he and his ilk continue their hate-mongering diatribes, the more it makes Bush look intelligent.  Will the real idiots please stand up!

Liberals are great at making

Liberals are great at making petty insults, calling people stupid, and coming up with hilarious and idiotic bumper stickers.  But when you put them on the spot for how THEY would do things differently suddenly they're remarkably quiet, or what they do say is astoundingly stupid.  (ie immediate "redeployment from iraq", or repealing those nasty "tax cuts on the rich", the same ones that are responsible for a very robust economy right now.)  It would "feel good" to redeploy from iraq for them, or "feel good" to repeal those tax cuts "on the rich" just like it "feels good" to call Bush an idiot.  It appeals to their emotions, yet would have very bad consequences in the long term.  Whatever.  This is just more of the same from liberals.

And the great thing that Bill Maher has done; and his success is what?  And what prize has he one; and he has been honored when.

I absolutely refuse to see any program that has BM on it after his remarks about the "commitment" the murderers of 9/11 had not long after that terrible day. That remark led to his being canned from his ABC show. It's apparent that if he'd make the same comment today, he'd probably get cheered...

<edit>

Here's the comment Maher made in early 2002

"We have been the cowards lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That's cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building, say what you want about it, it's not cowardly. Stupid maybe, but not cowardly."

Every time I see and/or hear something Bill Maher says I think to myself, "He's got to be the most disgusting Democrat supporter out there. But then when you think of Eleanor Clift, Rosie O'Donnell, Michael Moore, Keith Olbermann, James Carville, Paul Begala, Phil Donahue, Alec Baldwin, aaahhhh!!!!! there's so many that rival him!

Boy if a conservative went on Leno and called Bill Clinton "a retarded president" would we ever be swamped in MSM reporting!

It was always laughable on "Politically Incorrect" (insane title since Maher is as pc as you can get) when Maher would claim he's a libertarian and doesn't like either R's or D's. What Republican has this quarter-wit ever praised? And what Democrat has he ever criticized? (Hmmm, I'll concede that maybe he praised Jim Jeffords and criticized Zell Miller).

I really can't understand w

I really can't understand why
people like Mahar believe Bush is dumb. Think about it. Even though Clinton was president at the time, Bush was able to fool him into thinking Iraq had WMDs, even though he was only the governor of Texas at the time, and Clinton, who was president at the time, was the one who actually had access to all the classified intelligence. That tells me that Bush can't be all that dumb.

How does he and the other failures do it?  Keep coming back with the same old lame, disgusting, offensive and totally idiotic statements, recycled ad nauseum?  How do they justify their careers?  Unfunny, period.  He's an arrogant moron who deserves a major kick in the arse.  He and his ilk have pointed the nose of this country's culture down and set us into a tailspin.  George W. Bush is not perfect, but he's our president and has persevered through all the media and losers like Maher's vitriol.  We are at war with an enemy who lives with glee that there are those like Maher who help their efforts.

He wears like, three inches of make-up when he's on t.v.  What does that say?  Ignorant whore.

Maher... Pfffft

His show is so stacked to the far left that i really wish ALL conservatives would boycott appearing on (it). And the audience... uhhhhhh, Lemmings. I wish I could count how many outright LIES Maher has said on that show or let others get away with (all to thunderous applause, of course). If Maher wasn't famous, he'd never get into the Playboy mansion... being that he has the face of a sperm whale.

Tsk.  The reason this gillig

Tsk.  The reason this gilligan won the elections twice is because his henchman, Karl Rove, used his Rovian Mind Ray on all of the American plebians and we all obediently voted for Bush.  The great intellectual dough-faced, Maher, was not effected by the ray because he and all the other great moral thinkers in hollywoodenhead remembered to wear their tin-foil hats.

Can't this so-called pretend

Can't this so-called pretend to be man go crawl back under the rock he slithered out from?

Please.

Maher Is An Idiot

This man is just a pathetic piece of crap. His utter contempt for Pres. Bush is quite telling and reflective of the insanity that passes for Hollywood these days. These are the people who want us to kow-tow to them and who want us to think they are the EXPERTS. This man has serious issues and really, he doesn't even know the President and is projecting his own issues onto the President which is sad. When did name calling, and utter hatred pass for honest criticism of a sitting President? If you did this in an Islamic country (such as Iran), you won't live to get away with it. While this man graduated from Cornell, most of his ilk barely graduated from high school and let's face it, public education is not much of an education these days. I don't know why people "pay" to see this guy's version of "comedy?" I just don't get it. I've never found him funny and this just makes him even more hateful, biased, insane, and irrelevant. The only importance that Hollywood is now trying to convince us all they now have is their buying of a candidate who will spout their ignorant ideas: Obummer. It's a bummer that more people don't turn off the useless, alternative lifestyle friendly cable channel HBO will always be.

What's really telling is he

What's really telling is he says Bush is an idiot, right after saying "foreign policy isn't that complicated", lol. Well, Bill, I guess it isn't that complicated for guys like you whose solution to every problem would be to bow to the demands of everyone else in the world, no matter who they are, or what their demands are.

Seriously now, who is the real idiot here?

Reminder:

The gift that keeps on giving

Keep giving Maher a forum, so everyone can see. The more the better.
