HOW you interpret what he said is up to the listener. He was not, however, misquoted.

Not may article. Not my title.

How can you justify saying that he called the military cowards after you read his quote and his clarification? I'd LOVE to be able to fry is butt over a statement like that, but he didn't say that. People (you can even see it on this thread) don't care about the truth, they just want his neck.

Care to answer any of my questions in the previous post or this one? Or are you, too, so out for Mahr's neck that the truth doesn't matter?

How can you say I'm trying to justify anything? The gist of my first reply is that he is at the mercy of the viewing public and he rolled the dice and took his chances. My second post merely says that he was not misquoted. Misunderstood maybe, but not misquoted.

Maher's a coward and a sycophantic libertine piece of crap. He's getting what he deserves and even though this particular incident may not warrant it. The irony is delicious. It could have all been avoided if he had spoken the truth, that Clinton was a coward and guilty of lobbing missiles at came;s asses to cover his own ample derriere. LOL

Why anyone would defend an idiot like Maher is beyond me. Maher was not misquoted and his statement said exactly what it has been interpreted. Maher is a spineless little liberal who hides behind the lable of libertarian. Like most liberals, he is not honest about who he is.

Maher deserves everything he is getting from this and nothing more or less.

As others have pointed out, did this writer (or anyone at Cornell)defend Jerry Falwell, Dr. Laura or John Rocker when they were being crucified in a similar manner? I doubt it.

It's OK for liberals to attack but when it happens to one of their own, it becomes "a warning sign for an impending repeat of the Red Scare".

How can you justify saying that he called the military cowards after you read his quote and his clarification?

AND his clarification? Well, pardon me while I worship the most patriotic American of all time (while he tries to cover his little pink rump).

I've seen a transcript, but I can't seem to locate it at the moment. However...

Bill Maher on the Defense: "We have been the cowards. Lobbing cruise missiles from 2000 miles away, that's cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building, say what you want about it, not cowardly."

Are you seriously trying to convince people that BM was comparing the brave terrorists - that actually stayed in the plane - to our politicians - that ordered others to actually perform the deeds? PUHLEEEZE...

Let BM exercise his First Amendment right, by purchasing bumper stickers and protest signs -- just like the rest of us!
