No matter how dumb, the people who are questioning whether Obama was born in the U.S. could eventually cause real problems.

No one watches Bill Maher anyway...
AND YOU SUCK BILL!
We “must be stopped?” Sorry Bill - we do not have a police state yet but go ahead and try.
Looks like they are going even more mental.
Now we have Bill Maher and the LA Times talking about this issue, so it has really hit the mainstream. cool
Talk about idiots. Since when is America about killing arrant nonsense. I thought America has always been about freedom of speech and freedom of thought.
What a dumbA***
It’s so cute that Bill Maher still believes we care what he thinks....
Sure is...let experts examine the original birth certificate. Nice transparent attempt at marginalization however. Gibbs tried it too, with the DNA remark. You don't have to debate people if you can make their viewpoints seems absurd. Only problem is, that even Obama's own grandmother claimed he was born in Kenya...so what is the hang-up with the birth certificate, huh Bill?
Only if there is a "problem" in the first damn place, hmmmmmm?
Why is Sarah Palin's Hi School Diploma germane?
LOL, did you actually believe she wouldn't do this?
The sorcerer's apprentices, screwing up yet again. Sigh.

Communists like Bill always seek to control desent through the use of govt.
Oh, and he can go straight to hell!
Looked at Orly’s blog lately?
Nice pick up there - a little Freudian slip by Bill.
“could eventually cause real problems”
Clown Maher is having a tantrum because he cannot shut us up. Kudos to Lou Dobbs, Joe Farah and others for having the guts to keep this story alive. Lou Dobbs will not back down. I doubt CNN will fire him because his ratings are good.
BILL MAHER (from HBO’s ‘Real Time’): As conservatives get to call universal health care ‘socialized medicine,’ I get to call private for-profit healthcare ‘soulless vampire bastards making money off human pain.’ The more people who get sick and stay sick, the higher their profit margins, which is why they’re always pushing the Jell-O.
“Of course, capitalism is good. I am not a communist....But as a society, we used to understand that it didn’t have to go everywhere. You know, when capitalism becomes this religion- and it’s ironic, because usually it’s the- the people who are most religious in this country who believe- or at least treat capitalism like it is truly their God- unfettered- I would say capitalism is the correct economic system....But there have to be some dams and locks on the river.”
Sarah Palin as a presidential candidate...
Maher answered the she might have a future as such, but also took the opportunity to return to something he did during an appearance several months earlier on CNN- mocking the intelligence of the American people: “I don’t know about a presidential candidate, but I would never put anything past this stupid country- possibly. I think she certainly could get the nomination, considering what the Republican Party has become and where they are right now.”
WOLF BLITZER: Bill, a couple little clarifications, because we’re getting flooded with e-mail already. Earlier, Sarah Palin I asked does she have a future ahead and you say- said something to the effect, I don’t put anything past this stupid country. So, people are already complaining that you’re calling the United States a stupid country. I’m giving you a chance to clarify.
MAHER: I don’t need to clarify. It is.
BLITZER: Well, tell me why you think the United States is a stupid country.
MAHER: Because Sarah Palin could be president. Please, do I need to expand on that anymore? Yeah, I do- I think this is, in general- I mean, it’s a big country- that’s the great thing about it. There’s 300 million people here. So, within this large country, there are tens of millions of very bright, intelligent people- you know, the ones who are watching us, not the ones who are writing the e-mails. But, you know, in general- gosh, you know, this country just gets dumber and dumber by the day, and I don’t think I have time on your show to list all the reasons.
BLITZER: But you- but you- this country did elect Barack Obama president of the United States.
MAHER: Look who he was running against. Yes- I mean, look at the situation. I mean, this was after eight years of Bush, which was, you know, a- pretty much, a disastrous presidency. John McCain was not a very attractive candidate, and of course, he picked Sarah Palin to run beside him. And, you know, given that choice, I think Americans- you know, came to the fore on that one, but just because they elected a bright guy doesn’t mean they’re bright.
