A week after calling former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin a "dumb t***" vulgar insult for women, comedian Bill Maher went all the way and called Palin the c-word, adding, "There's just no other word for her."
The Dallas Voice (The Premier Media Source for LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transexual) Texas) reporting on Maher's appearance Sunday night at the Winnspear Opera House Sunday night, cheered Maher using the crude sexist slur against the 2008 Republican party vice presidential nominee as an act of "fearlessness":
It’s that fearlessness — he acknowledged that some people would probably be uncomfortable with some of his remarks about religion, not to mention calling Sarah Palin a “c***” (“there’s just no other word for her”) — that makes Maher the most dangerous person in comedy.
The audience at the Winnspear was descibed by the Voice as "largely gay (and certainly gay-friendly)", which might explain Maher's fearlessness in attacking a conservative, Christian, married mother of five in the most vulgar, personal and sexist way.
When Maher was first being criticized for calling Palin the t-word, Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters asked:
Is the universal media hatred for this woman so pervasive that it's now acceptable for a man to call her that?
Can the dreaded C-word be far behind?
Sadly, it didn't take long for Sheppard to be proven right.
Last month, Slate Magazine was caught slyly calling Palin the c-word in a headline. Slate's editor apologized after being being called out by Big Journalism.
Don’t hold back Bill, tell us how you really feel. Still beating your wife? Try anger management.
100 posts. I trust these are 100 people who don’t watch HBO or pay for it, or who have notified the company (and its parent company) as to why they have cancelled.
“Maher is taking his “act” on the road, he’ll be here in Springfield, Mo next month. ..Wonder how ticket sales are doing?”
I’m in Spfld too. Hope no one buys a ticket. But judging from the ‘opinion’ comments in the newspaper, I’m sure there will be some. We do have some token community agitators.
Were I Todd Palin, Maher would sound like he was in puberty for the rest of his life. That is, assuming he actually has testicles.
there is something seriously wrong with this person. His whole entire persona beginning with his face shows what his insides are made of and how void he is of anything decent or constructive. Perhaps someone should come out and just constantly hammer him on his looks and his ugliness and his lack of a soul. He certainly needs help and he is such a mini weasle. Pity for him...total pity because making fun of a woman and an intelligent one at that surely tells us how afraid and how inferior he feels towards women.
One thing’s certain — the wuss Maher would never say that to her face. ....especially if Todd were nearby.
Go figure.
thanks for the link.

I’m disappointed that the Winspear would have someone like him. I thought it was a classy, respected place. Guess I thought wrong.
Could Maher be envious because he doesn’t possess female genitalia? He’s obviously obsessed with it..
I can name quite a few....
I doubt he possesses a male genitalia either. Has he ever had any kind of normal relationships? I think he’s sexless and depressed and acts out his hostility on the stage.
Sarah must really get under Maher’s skin. The more she ignores him, the more irritated he becomes. Good for you, Sarah! Don’t waste an iota of energy on this irrelevant cretin.
His ratings must be in the toilet.
Let’s keep them there by continuing to ignore him. :D
feh...
My wife is repulsed by that POS. She says if she and Maher were the last two people on earth, the human race would die out.
A sexless interpetation of menopause may frustrate “Mom” Maher.
Maher might recover if he ever gets over puberty. .................................... LOL, does that mean he already reached it? He acts like a 1st Grader, not a real grown up person. He certainly can’t be considered a gentleman. I’m surprised he even has an audience.
