Credit Maher for handling this well, even if he did forget to ask them whom they’re voting for.

And speaking of Truthers…a little OT here…but FOX News, if I’m not mistaken, has now labeled Ron Paul a “top tier” candidate

Ron Paul is not a Truther. Ron Paul thinks Truthers are wrong. He does not believe that the government staged the 9/11 attacks. Can we please kill this erroneous "Ron Paul is a Truther" meme already? He's denied it on national television [2:30-3:33] and has never once said or implied that the government was behind it.

I don’t believe this for once second. I believe it was a total setup to make Maher look good after all the idiotic things he’s been spewing.
I do not trust this scum.
Look how he plays the “hero”.
I’m not buying bull***t today. Maybe tomorrow. Not today.

I don’t think Maher handled it well. It got angry fast, used expletives, and generally lost his cool at a couple of hecklers. If he was such a comedian, and a sharp wit, how come we didn’t see it? A real comedian knows how to deal with hecklers until security resolves the problem. He lost it from the get-go.

I’m using the single word separated by periods:
What. A. Great. Comment.

I was just thrilled to see Matthews lumped in with Shelia Jackson Lee — which is right (left?) where he belongs. (Did anyone else notice him trying to edge over and put more space between himself and her? He’s thinking, “Jeez, I’m gonna be photographed with her, and I just know she’s gonna use it on some campaign materials when she runs for…somethin’.”

Mahers is a tough guy when he’s backed up by security.

Lee is the queen of insanity in the House. One nasty,racist, anti-USA nut job that keeps getting elected based on her skin color. That table looked looked like a meeting of comic book villains.

Did you notice NONE of the people on the stage had a clue what to do or say? Reagan gets interrupted, and he says “Aw shut up” without skipping a beat. The four of them cannot speak an original thought. COMBINED!

And when Fred! at that debate last time, “That’s your opinion Christopher” Chris was at a complete loss what to do.

Not an original thought, or the ability to deal with anything unexpected.

Is it possible that the whole thing was a setup by Maher for the publicity?

OK, maybe I’m venturing into ‘truther’ territory with that.

Nevermind.

Are you suggesting that it was “conrolled imposition”?

People, please don’t give credit to this guy, Maher. Just because he has a quick wit does not give him credibility. Plus, his conscious theatrics of charging down to “kick some ass” is preposterous. As Mojack420 pointed out, he knows there are several burly security guys there so there was never much chance of an actual encounter.

I have long noticed that that Maher fancies himself as some sort of macho intellectual. He tries to act tough but, using a phrase of my father, he is actually a “little weed of a man”. He confuses the fact that because he is known as a “ladies man” about town that somehow this translates to a Clint Eastwood type of character. Bill, the women you get use you for your money, duh! Seriously, he looks so ashen and pale I think he is a vampire. So, stay the course and don’t get taken in by this, this, oh you fill it in…

And where WAS security anyway? That NEVER should have gotten that far, unless they really do not like the man.

~~Heh. Maybe a bit slow on purpose?~~

~~Glad to see the truthers get that for which they were begging. Funny to see Maher on the receiving end, too; indeed, reaping what he has sown.~~

I think it is unfortunate that Maher did the right thing. It shows that Maher, and probably a few other Progressives are actually smart enough to see that Truther Idiocy and other General Unhingedness and BDS are more than enough to cost them 2008 as well. As such, folks like Maher are now actively trying to quash the Nuts wing. I think we will see more of this, and a mandate from on high to get Matthews, Olby, to calm down, etc. Too bad, I was really enjoying watching them implode on their own.

But there is still hope, because the entire ideology of the left is based on emotion and irrationality. So there’s always plenty more.

I say this was all staged just to make BM look like a tough guy.

Which I seriously doubt, your not Billy bad a$$ if your rushing into the audience when you know 4 or 5 security guards are already there escorting the person out. And if you were really a tough guy Bill you should have went out back and did the a$$ kicking on your own.

This doesn’t elevate BM in my eyes once a p**k always a p**k.
