Bill Maher --- In general, it is the dumbest part of the county [The South]
CNN/Larry King Live | 07/22/04 | Bill Maher

Posted on 07/22/2004 7:11:49 PM PDT by conservative in nyc

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.

Absolutely!! It is part of their innate arrogance which is the reason for their "democrat" fervor. Always superior to the "little people" (Martha?)they feel the need to control everyone's life through the almighty government.
I soon as I can retire, I will leave this "Democrat heaven" away from their senators, their killing taxes, the friking snow, the potholes, the crowds, the overpriced housing..lousy highways..lousy restaurants..lousy malls..and stinking democrats (Mr. Maher).
LORD,give me the south any day!

I watched this jerk with my mouth agape. The popous tone he takes is patently offensive. Who the bloody heck does he think he is?

Also if you want to separate the italicized quote from your statement just put a P in between the two pointy brackets. That will start a new paragraph for you.

"And yet all of FR's Libertarians disavow Maher and say that he isn't really a Libertarain,even though that's exactly what he ALWAYS says he is.They think that they are better able to say what he is,than he is? LOL "

Yep. The fact remains that the most famous Libertarian alive is a 2nd tier "comic".

Which isn't as odd as it may seem at first glance. Personally, I find all Libertarians "amusing".....(grin)

Not relevant, just amusing.....

re: And half this country wants to kill a chicken and read the entrails like they used to do in the old Roman Empire)))

Am-A-zing characterization of Christianity...amazing because he's so cheerfully free of conscience while displaying his own liberal-KKK entrails. Bet he wouldn't feel so free to tell the truth about Islam and Mohammed as he is to spread this vile mixture...

They're either dying out or brightening up a bit.

Bill whore monger Maher, "They(the south) are the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken."




seconds later Maher say, .....now if you'll excuse me for a minute. I need to make a phone call to one of my favorite brothels. They have the best end trailing transgendered escorts I've ever paid for.

I know one thing is for certain, Maher is one of thee most singularly vile male chauvinistic PIGS known to humanity.

I know I've been called a yankee before on FR, but I want tell my fellow freepers from Dixie to take heart. Maher doesn't know what he is talking about and usually doesn't. Maher is not as funny or as clever as he thinks he is. And he probably doesn't care much for people in "fly over" country where I reside either.

The funny thing is, Bill, there's too many people outside the South who think that every problem can be solved by less guns and less Jesus.

We're all fighting for some ideal and Maher's is a nation of disarmed, godless humanists. He has no understanding of the ethic on which this country was founded and simply ridicules those who still hold dear to it by calling them "dumb".

Ah yes, Bill, you're all so enlightened and "hip" aren't you? Suits me. The less of his type that moves down here, the better.
