"When we see crazy, senseless deaths like this, we can only ask why, why, why couldn't it have been Glenn Beck?"
So joked Bill Maher Friday evening on HBO's "Real Time."
During his opening monologue, Maher addressed John Bedell, the man that was shot and killed Thursday when he attacked the Pentagon.
For some reason, the comedian used the incident as a vehicle to go after the Fox News host (video embedded below the fold with transcript, h/t Ed Morrissey, file photo):

>> Beck should immediately lawyer up and sue his a$$.
We can depoliticize and illustrate the depravity of Maher’s comment by substituting Maher’s wishful crime by another type of violent crime using any innocent victim other than Beck.
It would be immoral and uncivil to make such an analogy, and of course none should be made.
Maher should be shamed, not sure about civil or criminal prosecution.
He could probably just say, “Kill Conservatives” and they would laugh.
There, that's fixed!

Nicely done.
