Bill Maher Mercilessly Slams Hillary's Crying Game (updated w/video) By Noel Sheppard | January 12, 2008 - 19:00 ET

A truly extraordinary event happened on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher" Friday evening: the host, in the first show of the new season delayed as a result of the Hollywood writers' strike, began the program bashing Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) for faking a teary moment in a New Hampshire diner Monday.

Maybe even more astounding, Hillary's charade was a central focus of Maher's monologue, as well as the entire program during which he questioned the sanity of voters who bought into her crying game hook, line and sinker.

Readers are cautioned to hold on tightly to their seats, for this was how Friday's show began (video available here courtesy our friend Ms Underestimated):

And they said ‘Nothing good can come from Bill Maher’...

Seriously, they’re working together Doug, they travel in too many of the same donors and advisors. Trust me.

Broken clock.

Stopped watch.

(I am really getting to enjoy this writers strike. Intellectual charlatans like Maher are actually being forced into rational thought!)

And nothing good does come from Bill Maher.

Guy went over the hill around ‘04, he is sort of wacko now...and not really “sort of”....

Remember, her current ‘meme’ is that she is being ‘piled on’ by fat obnoxious white men.

It’s all part of the liberal game to get her sympathy.

What's truly amazing is that Hillary's tear was enough to float a raft of Massachusetts supporters to vote in New Hampshire.

Now that's (d)empathy.

Yes but notice the laughing in the crowd gets less and less as he rants. I believe the audience was offended but too polite to boo. Guess it would be too much to ask for if this rant ended Hillary’s campaign and got Bill Maher canned. No way but its a pleasant thought.

Can see the need to hold on as the truth is spoken; if only because of 'who' is speaking it. . .. .

Is it only a few in Hollywood that recognize the poverty of Hillary's acting abilities.

Well, he’s right to call into question people who bought into the tears. But something tells me he wouldn’t bring it up if he didn’t support another candidate. Mercenary humor.

For his next trick, he'll discuss the Aristotelian-Ciceronian basis of Barry Goldwater's The Conscience of a Conservative in a forthcoming show.

As long as they "spell" her name right...
