(See, WE'RE good americans - He made US mad, too!)
I agree. I'm thinking he is now a handicap to the Liberals. I'm sure many of his attacks whether on Bush or on Conservative values, will look unpatriotic now. The Democrats know the polls show Americans are behind Bush and Maher's mouth can't be trusted.
I'll bet he's actually in trouble because he's offended a lot of liberals who want to join in on the show of patriotism sweeping the country and he doesn't fit into their current plans. If they can blame the conservatives for getting rid of him, so much the better as far as they see it.
Maxine Waters delivered a few statements on Crossfire's Town Hall the other day, that were somewhat 'patriotic' and they got overwhelmingly positive audience response. She was glowing and will certainly be looking forward to more opportunities to wrap herself in the flag. Liberals like her know how to work the crowd once they have polled it.
