For example, Maher showed little regard for America by stating (emphasis mine): “You know, this country is, I've said this before, I'm going to keep saying it, it's a pitiful, helpless giant.” Think he was kidding? Later, Maher elaborated: “Again, because it's a stupid country with stupid people who don't pay attention.”

But Maher was just warming up.

One of the things I don't like about religion is I think it is arrogance...I think religion is usually, especially in this country, it's arrogance masquerading as humility.”

'A Stupid Country With Stupid People’'

[A CA Guy]

Must be referring to his applauding audience.

[rhombus]

Did someone say arrogant?

[Pitmaster]

[OldFriend]

Anyone care what these two have to say....to each other, or to us?

The same areas where the democrat get out the vote effort will be working overtime this November. Check out Philadelphia and Camden NJ for more information.

Pasty?

has Mahr looked in the mirror lately?

[Talking_Mouse]

“They're bad at sex..."

If we're so bad at sex why do we have more children than Democrats?

[Brilliant]

And he should know!

[Thebaddog]

Isn't Maher a classic case of media nepotism?

[sweetliberty]

He should know. He looks in the mirror every morning at one of their leaders.

[mylife]

He's a classic case of something!

"I am grateful that he doesn't have a teaching position at some liberal arts university."

Yet.

And the proof is that Bill Maher still has a tv show.
