Bill Maher: “It was like, wow, I will send (Obama) whatever I have to to keep this snarling b***h out of the White House.”
Posted by Dirty Harry on Monday, September 8th, 2008
Always appreciate the emails, and got a ton of them after Maher referred to Sarah Palin as a “stewardess” on his HBO show, but the “stewardess” crack wasn’t outside the lines for a comedian. It was tough, biting, and a little further than a Jay Leno or David Letterman would go, but not out there. I didn’t laugh, but that’s because I don’t like Maher. Now, had George Carlin said it…
This, however, was not Maher speaking in a comedic context. This was an interview:
Comedian Bill Maher says he’s not normally the type to make political donations, but he was so moved by the words of Republican vice-presidential running mate Sarah Palin that he immediately cut a cheque - for her opponents.
Maher, in town to support his new film “Religulous” at the Toronto International Film Festival, has based a career on political humour and eagerly ripped into Palin when the topic was put before him.
“I tell you I do not ever make a habit of giving money to politicians, but when I saw her make that speech I ran to my chequebook and sent money to Barack Obama,” Maher said.

You can say that again.
Bill, I think your best approach is to continue attacking Palin with lies and personal insults.
I remember a poster once described him as a gargoyle. That seemed very appropriate.
Gotta disagree, he's three-quarters of a fag at the VERY least.
What? Was Harry Belefante not available?
Rosey O’Donught?
Danny Glover-Chavez?
It’s just Maher’s turn to be the useful idiot mouthpiece.
Oh, what a relief! Ma-whore is giving a bundle to Obama to get him to leave Michelle at home!
I have not had HBO since Maher had remarks about the Pope...I hope more follow your lead on FR to cancel HBO. The FL Federation of GOP women boycotting Oprah, the US Magazine subscriptions that were dropped over Sarah Palin cover and even Tyson being boycotted worked and I believe a lot of Freepers led the way.
I don’t get how the ability to appeal to a small segment of the population when it comes to so-called “entertainment” equates to brilliance in the political realm.
In other words, we don’t give a darn, Bill!
It sent a whole bunch of US running for our check books, too!
“snarling b*h?” I don’t see it.
Also, I don’t see anyone trying to “shove their religion down anyone’s throat”.
However, the wicked often see any symbols of religion, or even people trying to live their own lives righteously, as “shoving religion down their throats” because any such thing is a visible reminder of their own failings.
And they HATE to be reminded.
Someone should post that pic of him drunk on his butt wearing that embarrassing halloween costume of the then, recently deceased, Crocodile Hunter.
He is such a hack.
Saving this country is the priority, but the side-benefit of the wailing and gnashing of teeth from rock stars and bill maher will be a nice cherry on top.
Dear Mr. Mahr. I am a fan and would like a picture. You know the one with the ball in your mouth and the lady with all the leather beating you. That one.
Sarah could beat this lefty, light-weight bigot in arm-wrestling, debating, wise-cracking—whatever the challenge.
You should say he's a quarter at best. The expression derives from the Italian phrase mezzo finocchio.
The literal translation is half a fennel, but it is also a common slang term meaning roughly "not even man enough to be considered a complete sissy", finocchio being the slang term for a sissy or a fag.
Next time you watch "The Godfather" note the scene with Brando and Al Martino who plays his godson Johnny Fontaine.
Martino: "Oh Godfather, I don't know what to do...
Brando: (slaps Martino)You can act like a man! What's the matter with you? Is this how you've turned out? A Hollywood finocchio who cries like a woman?"
I'm not of Italian heritage (my grandparents all came from Greece) but it's a very common expression in New York City where I grew up.
That lie was disproven by the 10th posted comment, which found he has given $1000.00's to the Democrats is previous years.
Don't these guys know about the internet yet ? For all they're so smart, they've yet to figure out that they can be easily fact-checked. They're throwing their own credibility away by the bucketload, and soon will be completely on the ash-heap of pre-internet history.
I've never had a flight attendant who was a snarling b***h.
Non-snarling, sure, but snarling, no.
So which is it?
Ms Maher isn't even worthy of the title bitch. She's just some testosterone lacking balless sad sack of pig slop hiding behind a camera who would fall on the ground shaking like a deprived alcoholic if confronted by a strong woman.
You go girl! Continue to make an ass out of yourself. Signed, not just “a” bitch, but “THE” bitch. Jesus loves ya! :)
Wow. As close to a textbook case of projection I’ve ever seen.
That funny look is because his parents were related before they were married.
