If you can’t stand up to Chris Wallace, can you stand up to the terrorists, or the Republican Party?”

This from a guy that stacks his panel with 3 libs (plus him) and one conservative.

“If you can’t stand up to Chris Wallace, can you stand up to the terrorists, or the Republican Party?”

Heh, can’t disagree with Bill Maher, here. In the past I used to watch him during business trips, late at night. I found his dry wit and libertarianism entertaining and sobering. He’s lost it lately or caters to a lunatic audience. But he is a talented guy and in his own way has courage.

Nothing Billy says will ever negate the fact that he was in D.C. Cab.

Actually, I got a kick out of that movie, but it wasn’t exactly a training ground for political pundits.

I’m sorry, I didn’t catch the whole thing, I walked out in the middle of it.

I predict, before this year is out, Maher will play golf with limbaugh, praise cheney, embrace coulter and become a staunch conservative republican …..

Hey.

Isn’t ‘wussies’ lib hate speech for the ‘eff-aggot’??

I’m outraged.

Well Maher’s dead on. It’s too bad he can’t be that honest with his personal critiques of his beloved John Edwards. At least he called them out though on their “pussyiness”(can I say that here? I feel dirty;) and how it doesn’t just have implications for TV debates.

According to nndb.com, Maher and Coulter were once a romantic item.

“Dems are wussies.”

Gee, ya think so? Thanks for the update, Capt. Obvious. Tell us something we *don’t* know.

But the real reason Dems are wussies is that they wanna surrender Iraq to al-qaeda. Just like they surrendered Somalia to a tribal warlord.

[...] That’s how Bill Maher characterizes Democrats who have pulled out of the Fox debate – I wonder how many of the Republican candidates would show up for an Air America debate? [...]

I completely understand your animosity toward Maher but his point at the end is spot on.

SouthernDem on March 13, 2007 at 9:54 AM

My same thoughts exactly. Maher is a POS, but like a stopped clock that’s right 2x per day, his point at the end regarding the dems is as you say – spot on.

I too would love to see a televised national debate with Bill Maher’s question:

Moderator: “Senator Edwards, are you a pussy?”

Frankly, as a voter, I’d like to know.

At the end, Maher separated terrorists from Republicans…hmmm…I thought that crowd equated the two.

Also, has Maher ever been on Rush’s show? I don’t listen to Rush, so I’m not sure if that would work for Rush’s format. However, sitting across the desk from Larry talking tough about how Dems need to stand up to Repubs isn’t exactly gutsy. If Maher took his own advice and sat across the desk from Rush, I’d be impressed.

So, is it more credible coming from a Leftie Liberal to confirm that Ann used the “faggot-word” to denote “loser/wimp?” Just as she said, just as most people interpreted it. Glad to know that it takes four conservatives to match the word of just one Liberal Left.
King didn’t look too happy. Maher spilled a lot of beans, when all King wanted was the usual pro-Left puff interview.

I’m sorry. No I’m not! If we can see over and over again in the media how AC called TheBreckGril a “faggot” why can’t it be posted that Maher called the Dems “pussies”?

I find it offensive that this guy is actually on a news show as if his opinion actually mattered. Who the F cares what Billy boy’s has to say about ANYTHING?
He’s a stand-up comedian fer cryin’ out loud.

Larry King Live is not a news show, it’s primarily a liberal lovefest. My disgust for Larry and Maher is on par with you, but I avoid watching them by punching a button on my remote control.

Suppress your anger, change the channel. It’s therapeutic.

Wow, that actually felt good to hear.

He is 100% right on the money though. I would love to see a televised national debate with Bill Maher’s question.

Sometime in the future, I can hear it now……

Commentator: Senator Edwards, why did all of the Dems drop out of the Fox News debate. If you can’t handle Fox News, how can you handle the terrorists?

Edwards: Well…Let me just this national audience that the question that you just asked is WHY we didn’t do it

Commentator: Senator Edwards, that question was posed by Bill Maher.

He shoots!!! Scores!

Or it would be if he had identified the correct source of the Dem’s fright. And it’s true. If the Dems can’t stand up to the nutroots, how can we expect them to stand up to terrorists?

But I agree with his point about Coulter. Her joke was about calling him a wuss, not a homosexual.

I can’t believe he has lowered the discourse like this. The “P” word just makes it harder for the rest of us to get our message out.

It is good to know that , according to Bill Maher, Dhimmicrats consider the Republican party to be a much larger threat to their existence than “the terrorists”, as he says at the end. Dhimmicrats can stand up to neither of those entities without wetting their panties and crying for their mamas.

So I guess this means the Republican party is a force for good in this world, however wimpy they are in its defense. Press on, then. To Victory.
