Bill Maher gave an unsatirizable interview on Tuesday evening’s "The Situation Room" on CNN, spending a large portion of his ten-minute interview attacking, among others, General David Petraeus, Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker, and Iraqi prime minister Nouri al-Maliki, labeling them "stooges" for President Bush....

...Blitzer first asked the HBO host about the congressional Democrats’ lack of action on the Iraq war. "Is there more that they [the Democrats] could be doing? Should be doing?"
Maher’s answer:
Yeah, I guess there is. But, you know, what can you do with a situation where there's one man who stubbornly has the power and will not relinquish it? And he's such a liar, you know? I think that -- if he would just be straight with the American people, instead of saying things like, 'The people who are attacking us in Iraq are the same people who attacked us on 9/11.' What a blatant lie....
Blitzer then asked about General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker.
BLITZER: You listen closely to General David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker.... They made the case effectively for President Bush that the U.S. should continue this strategy.
MAHER: Wait a second. He put the words in their mouth. That wasn't the Petraeus Report.... It was a White House-written report. We know that. Bush has an interesting little scam going. He also quoted in his speech on Thursday night, Maliki. And he said basically that the Iraqi leadership is asking us to stay. So, in other words, he puts words into his stooges' mouths, and then, he quotes them.

Maher! WHAT A MA-ROON!
“Maher is an amusing little man.”
Perhaps the modifier “amusing” does not belong there. (And of course, I do not refer to Maher’s physical stature...only to his diminuitive mental one.)
What a self serving bunch of expletives. Of course the media and the dem pols and the protesters want the war to go on. What would they do without it...work at real jobs?
Bill Maher has figured out that the only way to salvage his career is to suck up to the political Left.
We should ban all Maher references here and everyone needs to stop watching him.
I completely agree. He is nothing but an agitator. BTW - How does an English Major from Cornell and crappy comedian get to be a political talking head?
errrr,.... be a Fellow Traveler LEFTIST LOON?
He is an absolute A$$hole!
I didn’t mean he was funny. I meant that he is amusing because he is so self-important. I wasn’t referring to his stature either. Big people can be very short in stature and little people can be very tall in stature. I referred to him as little because he is too self-absorbed and self-righteous to see beyond his own nose. How dare he so flippantly dismiss someone like General Patraeus.
Well, CNN always puts Maher on a pedestal; did Woffie even attempt to correct maher’s blatant lies? I didn’t think so.
Woffie/CNN/Maher/NBC/ABC/CBS....all organs of the DNC. There are NO patriots left at any of these organizations; they are just hateful people wanting to lose a war so they can blame President Bush. The BDS has gone from bad to extreme.
What’s his DU screen name?
Maher is truly a smarmy little p@ick. I would like to see him spend one week in Iraq with General Petraus.The hate filled anti American sthick act of his is really getting old. I guess if you have no talent, you have to try anything.In his world, General Petraus is a puppet, and Bill Clinton is a hero. We are truly experiencing bizarro times.
I get confused. Is President Bush a complete dope or a master manipulator who is able to fool everyone except Bill Maher? The President’s intellect seems to rise and fall as it fits liberals.
Well, President Bush has gone from an AWOL village idiot to an evil genius. Again.
