watched this new bill maher special last night (HBO). it's a scream. its so funny that its not funny because its all too true. a must see!
Airing live from the Berklee Performance Center in Boston, this one-hour special features Maher's acerbic takes on a wide range of social and political issues, including the follies and foibles perpetrated on America by President George W. Bush. http://www.hbo.com/events/billmaher/index.html

I am quite proud of the fact that I cast my ballot against him every time I had a choice!
I'll take someone who sees a killer rabbit, then spends decades devoting himself to housing the poor and saving thousands from disease, over a poorly spoken moron destroying our country any day of the week!

6th Gen and skunk are having a viewing party?No you tree hugger (and you can't deny it
), I am having a viewing party, and that is that;-). Oh darn, I am too cheap to pay for HBO. I didn't even know he was still on TV.Beach Fanatic

Yea, because swatting at a rabbit is the only thing Carter screwed up. Unless you count a benign foreign policy, a lack of the most basic understanding of economics, and a lack of hope in the American people? Steven Hayward wrote one hell of a book on the subject. Here is a Q&A.

Also, Chickpea, no sh** the mideast doesn't like them. Catholic priests don't like it when the alter boys run their mouth either.

I tried to watch the Maher thing Saturday night, I couldn't get into it. I'll give it another shot cuz I sometimes like his show. But, don't tell 6thGen, I sort of agree with his post about Maher being really smug while being really wrong...kinda like Lou Dobbs on the other side.

On the other side of Dobbs? Dobbs is left of O'Reilly, who's barely right on the spectrum. Both are pompous populist windbags, and although I can't stand Maher, he's a hell of a lot more intelligent than O'Reilly. My disdain for Dobbs and O'Reilly is about equal.

Me too! I want someone to wipe that disgusting smirk he wears all the time off his face. What the hell he is smug about?

i think he wears that smirk because he has utilized his depends and he enjoys wallowing in his on feces. i only say that because everything he touches...

Bill Maher's personal life is a trainwreck. He's an O'Reilly clone.

perhaps. but he's got some real humor. and he's a sicko. I like his take on "the moral and values" group.

His personal life is not a train wreck - he just NEVER wants to be married and only dates models.... what is wrong with that????
Beach Fanatic
at least he is honest!!!

I prefer this over a cheating husband. Divorce is much more of a train wreck than Bill's life seems to be.

That he is and I am sure it makes many people in red america cringe and me
all the more!! I love the fact that he makes some uncomfortable. Agree or disagree with his vitriole, he is sharp, smart and witty (and IMHO, this is a hard combination to beat in a man!!)As far as I am concerned I think he speaks about marriage and commitment the way many feel but do not dare utter in public. I DVR'd his show on HBO and cannot wait to watch it! I miss his new rules since his show is off the air till August and am looking forward to getting my Maher fix.

Doesn't red America just need more understanding?

What red america needs is education! So they don't vote against their own interest.

Exactly what interest is that? And are you saying that Republicans are poorly educated?

Educated...... If you live in a single wide, if your teeth number in the single digits, if you have no health care, if your working for near minimum wage, and your children find the military to be an escape plan, then you need to change your thinking! Your big issue isn't gay marriage! You really don't need more religious control over your life! You really don't need a tyrant to protect your interests.... His interests are not your interests! You have no business being a republican!

Rush fans say the same things about their man.
Maybe the middle way is a way we ought to consider.

Can't we all just get along????

OK. Tell me what plans the Dems offer that would benefit them more. I'd like to address it point by point.
Beach Lover
Please......... ! I'm sure you can spin facts to not reflect reality, but save it for others. I have lived long enough to know better. The only agenda of the republicans is to fool the masses to vote for them on single issues so that they and friends can be way more wealthy when done! The thread is about Maher. He is good. As for the smirk, doesn't anyone notice the smirk on the face of the guy who is lying to you and stealing your rights as he does?
