Bill Maher: 'The Racism is Coming from Rush Limbaugh'

Did you know that the racism in our country is coming from Rush Limbaugh?

That's what HBO's Bill Maher said on Friday's "Real Time."

Not just that, but also the people who are buying guns and ammunition since Election Day are doing so "because they're afraid that Obama and his Negro army are going to come and get" them.

I kid you not.

Such offenses occurred in the following exchange between Maher and his conservative guest Andrew Breitbart (video embedded below the fold, relevant section at 2:37):

HBO gave Maher his own show based on his a ability to cram two eight-balls up each nostril while tossing a salad. This shameless creep passes for an intellectual on the left.

Homeliest man in Hollywood.

Second or equally dumbest man alive -- I tune both of these idiots out;

Wow I’m getting old, I remember when Bill Maher didn’t look like the crypt keeper.

[Yaelle]

He is even uglier inside than outside. I do not care to think about it; it’s too grotesque to imagine.

His projecting about Rush, who has never shown an iota of racism in his personal nor professional life, sadly can only be seen by those of us exposed to Rush.

Maher thinks that because he’s slept with black women, he is a proven non-racist. Yet by saying that conservatism doesn’t jibe with 95% of black people, and that’s how it should be, he is as racist as can be.

IIRC, wasn't this Maher guy accused of beating up a negro woman.........wonder if he used the "n" word while he was pounding on her........

Classic projection..........

Bill Maher and other liberals don't let trivia like facts or reality get in the way of their prejudices and stereotypes. The bigotry comes from Maher, actually.

[TooFarGone]

where can you start with this? I don’t know. They have stolen the language. And we have allowed it. And then they raise the tired old tattered race flag. How can you defend against the accusation of talking in a ‘code language’ ?

I guess they can then tell me when I’m being racist even when I’m too insensitive to realize it.(S) They now want to define my words and thoughts for me? Just add it to the list of all the things they want to do for me that I never asked for.
There is some well articulated victimology in this clip. This, it seems, is what passes for ‘debate’ in the MSM. Our marketplace of ideas has become a morass of emotion.

[Danae]

Maher is a racist.

[janee]

Why waste a single word on pathetic Maher!

[skeeter]

The attention this rodent gets is waay out of proportion to his talent.

[altura]

Maher’s trying to get some pub on Rush’s coattails. I hope Rush ignores him.

[genghis]

bill maher has a 110 iq and thinks he has 150
rush has a 150 iq and thinks it is 110.

[Finny]

My stars, I ADORE Walter Williams. I just adore him! My MAN!

[Secret Agent Man]

Bill, Bill, you’re projecting again.

Keep taking your meds, Bill.

[curth]

Can’t we organize some sort of campaign to get this idiot off TV again? It’s one thing to state an opinion, but this guy is nothing but pure hatred.

[Snickering Hound]

Bill Maher is projecting his beliefs on someone else...

If I had Maher's history of abusing black women I'd be looking for people to call racist too.
