Bill Maher to tea partiers: The Founding Fathers would’ve hated your guts
Hot Air ^ | 1/15/11 | Michael van der Galien

Talk show host Bill Maher once again displayed his ignorance for America’s history and founding by telling Tea Partiers that the Founding Fathers would have “hated” their “guts.”

As you’d come to expect from Maher he constantly referred to members of the Tea Party as “teabaggers” – which would probably be an insult coming from virtually everybody else. When Maher uses this word, however, the Tea Party should wear it as a badge of honor. Next he told Tea Partiers that the Founding Fathers were “nothing like them.” No, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, George Washington and all the others were profoundly different.

This is just more confirmation that the Left is terrified of the Tea Party. Good!

It is Maher that would be vilified by the Founding Fathers.

The left has come compleely unhinged. Americans can have no common ground with Pelosi, Ried and the Tucson shooter.

Or that dope.

The Founders would have been disappointed in the Tea Party, until they met people like Maher and then the Tea Party would have looked pretty damn good by comparison

I teabagged Bill Maher, and he liked it.

The Founding Fathers to Bill Maher ...
"When in the course of human events it becomes necessary to disavow the comments of a drunk, stupid liberal who has no friggin' idea of what we think, we hold this truth to be self-evident ... We hate Bill Maher.

This little bomb-throwing punk should get no attention. That’s all he wants. Let’s not give it to him.

I sure wish that Billy Maher would drive around in a Ford Pinto with brakes that would lock up when driving at highway speeds in front of a fully loaded semi.

Ain't that the truth. I saw him interviewed once, it was so vile I actually turned the TV off. I've never listened to him again.

If crazy Billy meant the Founders would have found Tea Party members to be too liberal for them then yes he`s correct.

"Pay as you go" Pelosi is one really screwed up babe. Either she's a congenital liar or has some serious mental issues.
Truly unbelievable what comes out of her mouth.

And also that they don’t know a thing about our history or our founding fathers.

The founding fathers would have that scum taken out and hung.
