Maher: Palin Would Kill Indians From a Helicopter
NRO ^ | August 3, 2009 | Tim Graham

Days before the 2008 election, HBO host Bill Maher expressed his hatred for Sarah Palin: "If there is such a thing as karma, let's hope that Sarah Palin comes back as a wolf being shot from a plane." Maher returned to the wolf-shooting metaphors on Friday night's Real Time as he discussed her farewell address in Alaska – except this time Maher suggested Palin would execute Cherokee Indians. Right-leaning humorist Joe Queenan set off the "joking."

QUEENAN: Are you blaming Sarah Palin for the extermination of the Cherokee tribe?

MAHER: I certainly am.

QUEENAN: Exactly.

MAHER: Not that she did it, but if she was around then, she would have – from a helicopter, like she did the wolves.

Notice how the logic collapses: Palin in a helicopter in the 1800s? That was not the only moment when the Palin mockery seemed a little mangled on the Maher show. This is how the bashing began:

Look how childish the left has made so many people.

You're so right. I've never met a group of people so immature as liberals. You can spot one a mile away when they stamp their feet and whine "It's not fair!" (seems to be their anthem.)

Over the years, I've had to work with gaggles of the little creeps. High drama, pity parties and finger-pointing. Makes one want to tan their butts and sit them in time-out. Perpetual children. All of them.

I like the fact that these liberal nuts are coming out of the woodwork, they are showing EVERYONE who they really are. Anyone with a shred of common sense looks at them and says “Wow, so these are the people Obama associates with”

I say anyone with an ounce of intelligence would have investigated Obama's background before voting him in. Reminds me of all the people (women mostly)who voted for Clinton. "But he's so keeeeeeeeeeeeeewt!", was their reply when told of all his short-comings and shady past. *sigh*

The hard left will NEVER abandon Obama, it will be the Independents who will see him and his “people” for what they are. Most of the people who voted for Obama voted for him because the media told them to. I have heard it from them, “The media told me to” they went like sheep to the polls because the media convinced them that Obama was super cool and would give them whatever they want

Scary, isn't it? Reminds me how my ex's mother used to quote from her AARP newsletter. At least she had the excuse of being nutz. *chills*

I can’t believe I wasted time reading this (expletive).

Gov. Palin, by the way, is NOT exterminating the wolves.

She is thinning out the number of predators to maintain the prey-predator relationship.

Stupid liberal morons.

I had some nasty karmaic thought myself but thought better than to post them.

Palin is married to a Native Alaskan.

Now is the time to start calling Maher a racist for his attack on Native people. Start a recall petition. Stand in his audience and question his intelligence. File a charge with some civil rights commission. Call what he said a “hate crime.”

The time has long passed to be nice to these people. Personalize him; polarize him; and do the same thing to him that he wants to do to Sarah Palin. He’s got more money than Sarah, so he should be able to put up with it.


Unfortunately, Maher is exempt from the charge of racism here because his targets are considered less equal than others.

Eskimo, misogynist, illegitimacy, Downs Syndrome, and redneck jokes about the Palins will pass PC muster without a hitch.
