What an ignorant asshole. I'm no Bush fan, but this is a stupid, purposeless letter.

gtrietsc · September 16th, 2005, 12:48 PM

Yea, like people should listen to Bil Maher. He called the 9/11 hijackers "courageous" a couple years back. images/smilies/rolleyes.gif

Go Bill! That made my morning.

As for the comments, yikes man, thats the best you can do? A misquote and a personal slam. Poor Bill, his audience really is getting smaller. . . when did this country become so millitant about differing points of view?

I know, I know. I'm from California so I'm not really an American (yes, I have been told that more than once). I'm beginning to agree, California would be a much better place if it left the unuion.

a personal slam

Maher's letter is playground hate speech. This type of thing is a loser's last volley in a lost battle, and it's the only thing the far-left has left to say these days-- drawing false conclusions, making personal insults and placing blame on the republicans.

Maher neither has the intelligence nor the balls to actually DO anything about what he complains about.

I'm not a Bush fan, but I seriously dislike the "hate and divide" attitudes of the both extremes, right and left, right now. There's nothing good coming from this.

Ultra_Kool_Dude · September 16th, 2005, 06:04 PM

Bill Maher annoys the hell out of me.

gtrietsc · September 16th, 2005, 06:11 PM

^^^ agrees with kanderson ^^^

As long as we are talking about misquotes, its disingenous to say we lost four airliners under Bush. Just because terrorists failed to destroy the WTC in 1993 doesnt mean it didnt happen under Clinton's watch, right?

There is no black and white on anything, so its overly simplistic to blame everything on Bush.

kanderson · September 16th, 2005, 06:26 PM

Terrorists don't care who the president is. Both WTC incidents were being planned long before they occurred. It was under Clinton that the 9/11 pilots entered the country and got trained.

jayjaya29 · September 16th, 2005, 06:27 PM

Essh thats a harsh letter.

Viper007Bond · September 16th, 2005, 10:12 PM

Have we actually confirmed that he wrote that? I find that 90% of the crap sent via e-mail is made up.

Regardless, Mahr is funny as hell. I love his TV show, almost as much as The Daily Show. images/smilies/biggrin.gif

BlaRo · September 16th, 2005, 10:45 PM

Oh, please. I thought it was hilarious. Factual, probably not. But funny, yes. Especially: "Turning the space program over to the church. And Social Security to Fannie Mae. Giving embryos the vote."

Bill Maher is a dipsh!t. And yes, he gave that speech at the end of his show last friday.

tranceshakeel · September 17th, 2005, 01:17 AM

I think Bill, who ever he is, Knows what he is talking about !

Z Draci · September 17th, 2005, 01:24 AM

Even Bush is smart enough to excuse this letter as plain trash.
Do you think Bush will even take this guy seriously?
