It merely means that Maher really is as naive as he seems.
"A lie told often enough becomes the truth" - Lenin
LOL. Maher is somehow on cable, in the far far background. He might as well be assistant manager at Joe’s Taco House. at least more people would hear from him. He is the poster child for “irrelevance”. Schmuck.
Bill Maher would love this. I wouldn’t give him the ink.
Didn’t both men support the “withering of the state”? Yep, same as the Tea Party! Bob
What this means is that Jonah Goldberg has gotten inside Maher’s head.
Banning religion, forced abortions, take over of business, no personal property, no gun ownership. Yup sounds like a conservative to me.
Terror is fear, Poel Karp, February 8th, 2011

...The 1918-1920 civil war has been forgotten, but today’s terrorism stems from it. Some say that Abramovich and Berezovsky started the war against the peaceful, accomplished Bolshevik revolution, but they were not around back then. The Tsar would never have give Abramovich or Berezovsky any businesses to manage. Back then the Ryabushinskys and Putilovs were amassing all the wealth, and they were not guilty of the civil war, either. Of course, the Bolsheviks seized power in Petrograd almost peacefully, and made all those wonderful promises that the Tsars never would make: the Land Decree and the Declaration of the Rights of the Peoples of Russia. Most importantly, they held elections to the Constituent Assembly, which the Provisional Government found necessary to delay since only a quarter of the electorate would vote for the Bolsheviks. So, they dispersed the Assembly, and because of the civil war no legitimate government ever appeared in Russia after the revolution.
To Russia’s great misfortune, the Assembly members were mostly civilians who could not stand up to the well-armed Bolsheviks. Deninin resisted, as did Yudenich and Kolchak, but they were not considered members of the Constituent Assembly. The civil war was between a dictatorship waving the flag of democracy, and the Tsarist system, and between the two, the Bolsheviks and the Tsarist rump, Russia was consumed.
Along with the war, however, terror began. It was not a Tsarist officer who shot Vladimir Lenin and the others: they were killed by fellow revolutionaries, by members of Peasant Party, which also used terrorism against the Tsarist government. The Peasant Party, by the way, received most of the popular vote in the Assembly. The Bolsheviks had been trying to introduce a grain surplus appropriation system in the villages, and declared attacks by the peasants to be the work of the Whites, and responded with the Red Terror. The Bolsheviks, betrayers of everyone, feared that the peasants would turn against them, and so they agreed to a compromise: the New Economic Policy (NEP). For a time, terror died down.
By 1922 Lenin was saying: “We retreated for a year. Enough.” A punitive system was invented, ready to transform the peasantry into the agricultural worker class, and in 1927 the Soviet state began practicing mass repression in grain procurement, and became a terrorist state. The exile of millions of peasants from their homelands frightened tens of millions into abandoning farm work. Mutual terror ended, and one-sided terror began. In 1929 the NEP compromise could be abandoned...
Either Maher is extremely ignorant of philosophy and ideologies or he is extremely evil, because he embraces a lot of the secular atheism that spawned all the most vile leaders in all of man’s history. All leftists—like Hitler. Totalitarian regimes are all on the left.....anarchy is on the right. Our Republic is in between the extremes which is where virtue lies.
The term Right and Left came from England’s Parliament and was all about where people sat. The left has used it to confuse people....by calling the socialist Hitler and Mussolini on the Right....ya, right.
Why are the leftist retarded clowns always trying to impress other retarded clowns? There must be a clown city with Bill Maher as their mayor and he drives a clown car to work with all the canned laughter and applause on the radio that he thinks is for him.
He’s a royal fool.
In another life Bill Maher would be Madame Defarge, crying “Guillotine!”
The National Socialist German Workers' Party (German: Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei, abbreviated NSDAP), commonly known in English as the Nazi Party (from the German Nazi, abbreviated from the pronunciation of Nationalsozialist[5]), was a political party in Germany between 1919 and 1945. It was known as the German Workers' Party (DAP) prior to a change of name in 1920.

National Health Care: Medicine in Germany 1918-1945 [Nazi health care]
Does the Modern Bureaucratization of Medicine Risk a Return to the Horrors of National Socialist Medicine?
by Marc S. Micozzi M.D.
Today we are concerned about issues such as doctor-assisted suicide, abortion, the use of fetal tissue, genetic screening, birth control and sterilization, health-care rationing and the ethics of medical research on animals and humans. These subjects are major challenges in both ethics and economics at the end of the twentieth century. But at the beginning of the twentieth century the desire to create a more scientific medical practice and research had already raised the issues of euthanasia, eugenics, and medical experimentation on human subjects. In addition, the increasing involvement of the German government in medical care and funding medical research established the government-medical complex that the National Socialists later used to execute their extermination policies. ..."

Michael Moore (quote), from his website, April 14, 2004...
"The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not 'insurgents' or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy.' They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win. Get it, Mr. Bush?"

The Communist Party USA (CPUSA):
"We are a party of unity in action. We are an integral part of every struggle and movement for change to eliminate poverty and joblessness, against racism and for full equality. We are participants, initiators and leaders of every movement to make life better now and much better in a socialist future." Yeah, so they supported an oppressive dictator, like the Repubs and Democrats haven't? The CP is still around, has apologized for that whole Stalin thing, and has a quickly growing youth section.
