the crazies are EVERYWHERE....heres another one:

> 5) Actor/comedian Richard Belzer, who plays "Detective John
Munch" on NBC's Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, charged Friday
night on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher, to loud audience
applause, that John Kerry is "running against the worst President
in the history of the United States! And that's not hyperbole."
Belzer cited "the demonization of gays, the repression of black
voters, the favoritism of Halliburton." He also dismissed the
terrorist threat: "We can't consume everybody's life with this
fear when we've been attacked twice in twenty years." To loud
applause from the audience, he denigrated Ann Coulter as "a
fascist party doll" and claimed she's "a repugnant person who says
the most vile things, she lies."

The hour-long Real Time with Bill Maher, produced at CBS
Television City in Los Angeles, is shown live at 11pm EDT on
Fridays on HBO East, and has re-runs through the following week.

Belzer appeared on the Real Time panel with retired General
Wesley Clark and actor Kevin Costner who claimed he was
"conservative" yet spent most of his time effusively praising
Ralph Nader and attacking Bush from the left.

In reaction to Costner urging those who like Nader to vote for
him and not consider the political impact of costing Kerry the
presidency, Belzer broke in to argue, referring to Kerry:
"He's running against the worst President in the history of
the United States! [audience applause] And that's not hyperbole.
That's not hyperbole. The environment, the demonization of gays,
the repression of black voters, the favoritism of Halliburton,
this unending war. Where are we going to get the troops? He said
that we're going to win the war on terror. Terrorism has been in
existence for thousands of year, there'll always be terrorists. Of
course we have to address them, but we can't consume everybody's
life with this fear [applause] when we've been attacked twice in
twenty years."

Later, by satellite, Maher interviewed conservative columnist
Ann Coulter. Just before she came on, Belzer smeared her: "She's a
fascist party doll."

Following the interview, during which Belzer took barely
audible, off-mike cheap shots at her, much of the audience booed
Coulter, prompting Maher to call for respect for differing views.
Belzer fired back: "She's a repugnant person who says the most
vile things [loud applause], she lies, she's a liar and you know
that."
