Canadian funny man (?) Martin Short
Why would Short dis the South? Especially when the aging actor/comedian depends on ticket sales from his upcoming film “Jiminy Glick in La La Land”, I mean "La La Wood" opening May 6th..what was Short thinking?
Critic, DAVID GERMAIN, from the Associated Press fires a shot at Short and "Glick":" a painful bore that leaves plenty of time to ponder how many favors Short called in (and what bridges he may have burned) to snag Steve Martin, Susan Sarandon, Sharon Stone, Kevin Kline, Kurt Russell and others for cameos in this fiasco.... Despite such comic talents as Jan Hooks, Elizabeth Perkins, Janeane Garofalo, Linda Cardellini and John Michael Higgins (a veteran of Guest's ad-libbed "Best in Show" and "A Mighty Wind") line after line of outrageously delivered dialogue lands with a thud."
"Watching these gifted performers bluster through Glickland is like seeing an endless parade of earnest kids do stinging belly-flops off the diving board at their school swimming pool. You really feel for their suffering." A Gold Circle Films release,rated R for language and crude sexual content.

Well, now he's been over, he's had the pot-roast. But he's getting drunk—[laughter]—Idiots. Not only has Bush not had a drink in like 20 years, he's likely more intelligent that Maher and his audience put together.

One Goober of a Low-Brow, southern Jesus Freak checkin' in.
Sorry, I draw the line at handling those demon creatures from hell... but I could sure dump a barrel of rattlers in Shorty's lap in a hurry.

If all these guys have is this petty regionalist name-calling, it must be pretty bad for them. Heck, let them vent in front of a bunch of like-minded people, all their heads bobbing in unison. They're only digging a deeper hole for themselves.

I hope Steele learned something from this appearance in the lion's den.
On another note, who do the libs and MSM constantly cite the President'a 'approval numbers'? He's not running for re-election in 2008. Talk about meaningless polls......

I hate to inform Short that unless a person is a member of one of these snake handling cults, every Southerner thinks they're nuts. Leave it to a Hollywood type to think that all religious Southerners are like that.
To: fight_truth_decay
A lot of Southerners would just as soon remove Bill Maher's and Martin Short's heads and defecate in the holes, were it not for the simple fact that they're already full of crap.

Two more so-called "FUNNY MEN" of th eleft. Their Careers are ending prematurely because they are really NOT FUNNY! There A$$-HOLES!! AND nothing more. Like Franken and Garafalo, they are only funny because the other A$$-Holes told them they were funny.
Short played himself in the movie "Captain Ron" and A$$-Hole!

Those two are so far on the other side that I think one would prefer they say bad things about you.
You wouldn't want Hitler bragging about you would you? It would be terrible if Satan said he loved you.

WHY WHY WHY??? I love Martin Short and always have. Why did he have to open his mouth and insult me? I don't handle snakes for a religion, but my grandfather's family did. (and he always thought there was no need for snakes to love God and moved away from them) I was born and raised in Georgia and while we have our share of dumba&&es down here, there is no need to insult southerners.

Maher and Martin Short Dis the South: "Goobers, Snake Handlers, Low Brows and Jesus Freaks"
I wonder, do they include Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter amongst that number?
