Video: Even Bill Maher getting tired of the “Occupy” nonsense
“As I watch them on the news now, I find myself almost in agreement with Newt Gingrich, like, ‘You know what, get a job.’ Only because the people who originally started it, I think they went home. Now it’s just these anarchists stragglers. And this is the problem when your movement involves sleeping over in the park. You wind up attracting the people who were sleeping over in the park anyway. And I think this is where we are with the ‘Occupy movement’” Maher said on this week’s broadcast.

I wish they would hear about this and go and occupy his mansion in protest.

Him and Ann Colter need to retire to Fiji together. I don’t care i he makes sense on occasion, he should have been a national after thought a decade ago.

He found out that they were the ones downloading his crappy movie for free.

Ah yes, but he perpetuates the fantasy that the origional, virtuous, founders magically disappeared and the current occupation has nothing to do with the origional.

Still a puke

Maher’s just the latest liberal to figure out that the longer OWS goes on into 2012, the more it becomes a hindrance to Obama’s re-election hopes, since it’s more likely swing voters will remember OWS and the president share the same class warfare instincts. Better to cut them loose now than have to revise and extend your remarks in the summer, when the OWS loons descend on the convention sites to try and recreate Chicago ’68.

Ah yes the Democrats had hoped to gather all their special interest groups under one big protest and compete with the grass roots of the TEA Party. They tried very hard to paint the TEA Party as an astroturfed dangerous violent radical group. The Occupied movement is based on criminal acts and was astroturfed by the Democrat Party. The truth when presented in such stark contrast can no longer be hidden so it is time to reinvent the coffee party or No Labels or whichever the new leftist astroturf will be to compete with the grassroots that the TEA Party represents.

Suze Orman is an idiot for claiming that New York is warm because of global warming. Doesn’t she know the difference between weather and climate?

We’re all simply tired of Bill ‘pseudo-intellectual snob’ Maher.

I’ve never heard Bill Maher go after Obama the way he denigrated Bush. I wonder what he is afraid of?
