George Will Slaps Down Bill Maher on 'This Week'
http://www.associatedcontent.com ^ | May 03, 2010 | By Mark Whittington

Bill Maher is a snarky fellow who has a half "comedy" half public affairs show on HBO in which he gets laughs by saying stupid, offensive stuff. "Republicans are racists." "Sarah Palin is a ding bat." "Barack Obama is a calm black man." But when he appeared on "This Week" Maher found out what happens when one says stupid stuff in front of George Will. For information purposes, Will is correct that Brazil is a heavy oil producer and consumer and Bill Maher, as usual, is full of--er--stuff. And somewhere David Brinkley is rolling his eyes and saying, "And I though Bill Clinton was a bore!"

Bill Maher is the one who teaches the liberals how to spew lies and make it seem like the truth.

Bill Maher talking about how both parties are the same when it comes to the war. Well when will he start making jokes about the calm black man being a racist war monger?

A huge percentage of twenty somethings get their news from Comedy Central and this idiot.

As someone who grew up with some pretty major broadcast Journalists sharing my dinner every night, I have to laugh at these lightweights that inhabit the network news departments.

“What is Maher even doing on ‘This Week’ ?”
That’s what I asked yesterday.This is the equivalent of, 50 years ago, Milton Berle co-anchoring the Huntley-Brinkley report.
Today, all that’s needed to qualify you as a serious commentator on the corrupt media is being a big mouth leftist.

Since I know very little about Brazil and its oil output was Will correct?

This Week not only brought on Bill Maher to voice its opinion, but brought on slugger AL Sharpton as clean-up.

I wish Maher had told Obama Brazil was off oil before he gave them 2 billion.

As Americans were suffering from high unemployment Obama’s Puppet Master, George Soros boasted about having a “very good crisis.”

As Americans face higher gasoline prices following the oil spill in the Gulf, Soros stands to make money:

”The United States, through the U.S. Export-Import Bank, has issued a ‘preliminary commitment’ of $2 billion and more if needed” to Petroleo Brasileiro SA, a Brazilian government-owned oil exploration and development corporation known as “Petrobras.”

The Soros Fund Management, LLC has $900 million in Petrobras as of December 31, 2009.

In other words, not only does Soros make money from the offshore oil production in Brazil–we taxpayers helped finance it.

Will didnt smack anyone down. He couldn't - this was the The View with suits & ties. Maher was never in any danger of being challanged 'cause he was one of three bigmouthed libs (I'm not sure who the bald guy was, he didn't utter a word).

Will looked like a LaCrosse player at a rugby match.

I wish Will had remembered that! Obama gave them two billion for offshore drilling and yes, Soros was involved.

The Left does that often. They throw out outrageous "facts" and numbers about things the average person could not be expected to know off the tops of their heads and they get away with it. No body ever comes back and calls them on it and their lies are considered truth.

Soros buys Petrobras stock. Obama then reveals he will give PetroBras 2 billion as a start plus whatever they want in the future. I am sure Obama warned Soros ahead of time and it was not coincidental. Obama’s taxpayer funded insider trading.

Now George Soros funded Moveon.org and huffpo want all drilling stopped. Sooooooo, Ya’ think this might be a setup or a crisis abused so Soros makes a killing selling oil to America? This appears orchestrated to me.

@barackobama did you alert your Pal Soros so he could buy stocks? http://bit.ly/bIL2P5

George Soros funded moveon.org asks Obama to stop drilling.http://bit.ly/bKD4ue

Watch the entire segment. Will, who has more brains than the rest of the panel combined, couldn't get a word in edgeways. The rodent Maher went on to accuse all conservatives of being racists, and then clarified it by gneerously stating he would never accuse all REPUBLICANS of being racists. He was basically supported by the others on the panel & Will turtled as anyone in a similar situation would do.

Anyone with a right-of-Stalin POV is a mere foil on this kind of show. I dunnon why he agreed to go on with a sophist tool like Maher.
