Bill Maher

[GoldenRivet]

I caught up with most of an episode of Bill Maher's show at the home of an acquaintance of mine (he is quite liberal, and the only liberal in our "group"). I had to watch it there, because really, he has never appealed to me...

and frankly, I'm not really sure who this Maher guy is supposed to appeal to.

it seems that he and his writers spend most of their time coming up with little nick names for groups he disagrees with.

One, which was a particular turn off to myself was "Snake handler".

his comment was something about "All these crazy snake handling christians..." being opposed to something. For someone who tends to try and appeal to the left, he sure congers up a lot of hate speech.

I have heard him repeatedly refer to the TEA Party members as "Tea Baggers" with all of the obvious implications of the phrase to anyone in the know these days.

....and lord only knows what other nonsense has spewed from that massive hole in his face.

i lump him into the same, raunchy category as many might place Dr. Laura or Imus. He, like a couple of other show/radio hosts... has nothing worth while to contribute to discussion or conversation. He is constantly on the attack, particularly using derogatory terminology to describe those who he opposes.

I found him to be a disrespectful, spiteful, hateful little man.
