When asked by a caller how we could get Southern voters to vote for a democrat again, "Comic" Bill Maher just went on the following tirade against the South, Christians and Second Amendment patriots:
You know, that's a sore point with me in the South, the way they have a stranglehold on the electorate because... excuse me... and I love playing the red states, because when I play the red states in my stand-up act, you know, I get all the people who don't usually have someone like me come to their state, so there's a great bonding. And I feel for them, because there's a lot of smart people in the South. But in general, it is the dumbest part of the country.
Excuse me. It is. And also, they're the super patriots - the one part of the country that ever actually seceeded. The one part of the country that ever actually committed treason. And they seem to lead in how we are supposed to think. Because they are more religious. They are more "patriotic". And... umm.. I think it's just a a disservice to our...
Larry King: You think in modern day America, you can still claim a whole region is dumber than another reigon?
Maher: They lead the region in dumbness, yes they do. Because they, there's too many people that just think every problem can be solved by either more guns or more Jesus. And like I said, I'm with the people who are following their compass; not with the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken. They are the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken.
Are you trying to prove his point for him?
Now THAT would be fun. A new Survivor series maybe.....Southern Survivor...or would that be Hollywood Survivor?"
Na, I wouldn't walk across the street to see her either!! But maybe that's because I'm a girl, LOL.
"Mahers political leftwing schtick(spelling?) as made him richer and more popular than he ever was being a stand up comedian."
Dude...you nailed schtick and then misspelled has....lol...only joking.
By the way, can anyone tell me how to get these pasted quotes into italics. Every time I paste, it turns the text back to normal....work with me I am relatively new to Free Republic.

After this bigoted hate-bait tripe, bill will get a serious ass whippin' if he shows his face in the South! I'd like to expound on some data that refutes this POS, and his racist philosophy...
Number one, the South OWNS SPACE! We build the ships, we test the ships, we troubleshoot the ships, and we launch the ships. Speaking of ships, we build the finest that the American Navy can envision!!! We also are home the largest Air Force training facility in the U.S. (Biloxi, Mississippi), and Gulfport, Mississippi is home to one of only two Sea Bee bases in the U.S.
We grow most of the food that this POS eats, and we grow the cotton that makes the textiles that this girly-boy wears beneath his metro sexual attire. We refine and transport the gas he burns in his German import, and the shrimp that he eats in his appetizer is straight from the Gulf!
The most exciting auto racing is of Southern heritage, and the fastest boat racing takes place both in the Gulf, and on our beautiful inland waters!!! We have wonderful cities such as Miami, Daytona Beach, Orlando, Mobile, New Orleans, Memphis, and NASHVILLE to name but a few (and birthplace of Country Music, and the Grand Ole Opry). All are deeply rich in culture and art.
We are the birthplace of Rock and Roll, claim Elvis as one of our own, and Bay St. Louis, Mississippi is the birthplace of the ATM that we all use daily. We are the second largest gaming destination in the U.S. Meridian, Mississippi boasts the largest electronic music equipment manufacturer in the world, and Sevierville, Tennessee is home to one of the largest electronic communications equipment manufacturers in the U.S
. and is also the home of Dolly Parton. We pioneered the cable super station, and cable news was born in Atlanta. We have the BEST race relations of any section of the country, and share a common belief in GOD and Freedom.
We have one of the lowest crime rates in America, and we believe in the Second Amendment
and most of us are armed if we are awake. We have very little gun crime, but when we do, it is not unusual for citizens to be among the "first responders".
We mean what we say, and we say what we mean. We LOVE GOD, AMERICA, our women, and our hunting dogs... and you had better not mess with any of the four!
We did fight a Civil War, and we did harbor an evil institution in slavery. We have struggled hard over the years to erase those mistakes, and when OUR COUNTRY calls out in trouble, you can bet your ass that a Southerner will be at your side in that battle. I dare to say that without the South, America (as we know it today) would not exist.
We are somewhat like Marines, as there is no better FRIEND that a person can have than a Southerner, and no WORSE enemy!
Mr. Maher, you have just made MILLIONS of enemies!
LLS
Like Jeff Foxworthy says- Southerners are as bright as anyone else. We just have trouble keeping the dumbest among us off of the television...lol
.
I vote for belly girl.
Yea and with any luck the people you're following are going over a cliff by now, and you're next.
....not with the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken. They are the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken.
Does anyone actually know what this means? Does the Big BM even know what it means? I was born in the South and am still here and don't recall ever seeing the inside of a chicken. I have heard however that you have to cook yankee butthead liberals on a slow cooker, otherwise the meat is tough.
You've got mail!
And when he goes on vacation, the average IQ doubles.
Time for Nugent to kick your ass again.
And BTW, this Californian thinks Bill Maher is an ignorant, trash-talking, elitist bigot who isn't worthy to lick clean the shoes of our fine Southron cousins.
Hey pup; I think Mahr could use a shot of your poetic wit.
Would you wann eat anything he'd flipped?
BULL @#^#!!!!!
You can't be libertarian and a gun grabber. Maher's a bigtime gun grabber.
If HE doesn't like us, let HIM and his ilk secede. We'll let him and the other liberal enclaves depart in a heartbeat ... I'd even help him pack.
Re the dumb Southerners - outnumbered 3 to 1, our lands and homes destroyed, our armies in rags, it STILL took them over 4 years to defeat Southrons, and even them only because they attacked our women and children.
Re our religion and patriotism, he's just jealous. HE might think he evolved from a piece of slime, we were created in God's image.
What an incredible moron, I bet he was even kicked off of DU.
Excactly! What if he'd said blacks, jews or muslims were the dumbest people on the planet? He wouldn't even have his stupid TV show to go back to the second that came out of his mouth. Southern white Christians are the only people these day who it is politically correct to make fun of.
And they still can't figure out why it ain't over yet.
