BILL MAHER, HOST: Listening to people like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck these days, I cannot figure out whether these right-wingers are more dangerous when they're in power or when they're out of power. Because when they're out of power, their paranoia goes off the charts. This Glenn Beck guy, I wouldn't even give him the time of day except he's a big star now on Fox and a lot of people believe him, and he's talking about FEMA concentration camps. He says, "We are headed towards socialism, totalitarianism beyond your wildest imagination." But apparently not beyond his wildest imagination.
ANDREW ROSS SORKIN, NEW YORK TIMES: Did you see what he said about that? He said, "I can't prove these FEMA concentration camps, but let me tell you about them anyway." It's, you think it would be the opposite. KEITH OLBERMANN, "COUNTDOWN" HOST: Can I quote Madeline Albright? MAHER: Please. OLBERMANN: He's nuts. (wild audience applause). MAHER: But you know, look, I, I, I would never be the person who says you have to watch what you say because some borderline, no really, I'm not for that. But that's an argument that's given a lot: you can't say this because a borderline person might take it and do this. I'm sorry, that's the price of living in a free speech country, and I do want to live in one because I make my living at it. Okay, but you know, I must say, Tim McVeigh in 1995 if you recall, this was the same kind of talk that made him blow up that building. OLBERMANN: The guy who walked into the church in Tennessee said in his statement to the police that he did this because he could not shoot the liberals who were on the list from Bernie Goldberg. And Bernie Goldberg has proceeded to come out with another list of liberals, and this time I'm on the list, so this is even more vivid in my mind now. So, yeah, you're absolutely right about that. [...] MAHER: The person who I think is irresponsible is Roger Ailes, the head of Fox News for putting him on, or Rupert Murdoch who's his boss. I mean, you know, they know that this is not responsible stuff, and this kind of stuff... KERRY WASHINGTON, ACTRESS AND ACTIVIST: You think people take it seriously? OLBERMANN: Yes. WASHINGTON: I mean, to me he seems like a conservative Jerry Springer. SEN. BERNIE SANDERS (I-Vt.): You have not gotten the e-mails at my office lately. People take it seriously. MAHER: You know, remember when Obama said that the people out there who are bitter and cling to their guns? Yeah, he was way off about that. I mean, it's those people who I worry about. I do think that this increases the chance for people, you know, to take horrible action. I mean, you know, already Obama has more threats than any president ever. WASHINGTON: Are we surprised about that fact? MAHER: No. I am not surprised. No, I am not surprised about that. I'm just saying this stuff doesn't help. Makes one wonder if this was required by him to appear. After all, he clearly never wants anyone around to challenge his views. Such was important Friday evening as Olbermann compared Beck to the Depression-era Father Coughlin: OLBERMANN: You know, in the last major, economic crisis of this nation, we spewed forth Father Coughlin. Well, this is Father Coughlin with a crew cut. This is Father Coughlin on TV. |

How about the chnces of horrible action against Maher or Olbermann?

I would have loved to have been able to roll a grenade on that set.
What a cast of cretins! |

Jealousy is a bitch. ...and so is Bill Maher. He was quite smarmy and condescending in Religiulous...At least Hitchens and Dawkins are capable of being professional. |

Quoted: ...At least Hitchens and Dawkins are capable of being professional. Who are they? I don't see those names in the OP. |

Maher & Olberman are both a couple of the biggest phonies I've ever seen.
Doesn't surprise me. |

Liberals fail at radio left and right and are have a hell of a time on tv.

Well, if Obama were to die, it WOULD mean the end of Maher's and Olbermann's sex life.

I'm not arguing their content - I'm just saying Maher is far more of a condescending prick than Dawkins could ever hope to be. |

And then Olberman and Maher sucked each other's dicks. LOL |

Why some atheists here practically worship Bill Maher is beyond me.

Well, he starts off lying about what Beck said about FEMA camps. Beck specifically said he thought it was bs.
|
|
There is no doubt about the hate for Obama.
Beck is not about hate, Limbaugh is. A lot of people think the Obama hate talk is benign, I see an agenda. If there is an act of violence against Obama or his family, we the gun owning populace will be in the sights of new prez Biden, Congress and the media, and most likely lose our guns and worse yet, our rights. If you are a gun owning Citizen and believe in your RKBAs, speak and write hate crap about Obama, then you are a MORON! |

Communist party damage control, too many people are waking up.

I saw that Maher prick in person when I went with a group of people to see the taping of the show. It really sucked and I booed a couple of times but the people I was with had went there to see a particular actress that was on the show and they did not want to get kicked out. This was like 8 to 10 years ago I think. And yes he does only bring on guest that will agree with him, he likes to bring on idiots that are supposed to be conservative but are shills for the democrats.

They'll use any tactic, any trick to silence Consertive Talk Radio. Its like a small crack in a dam or dyke; they drive a wedge and a small trickle of doubt begins.........
Wake up, America! We must see them for what they really are and understand their agenda if we are to turn the tide back against Socialism! |
|
Its really too bad when people that give a shit about this country are labeled as "right-wing" or "extreme". Since when was it right wing or extreme to be a Constitution honoring patriot? Its really too bad whats going on right now. Scary.

Quoted:

Because their anti-religious zealotry is on par with the zeal that many hard core religious fundamentalists display on the other side of the equation. This blinds them to all the other repugnant things Maher says or does, because radical atheism trumps all to their way of thinking. |

For all the talk about Obama being harmed or assassinated, I guarantee absolutely nothing will happen to him from a person with a right of center political philosophy. If something happens to him, it will be from someone who is mentally ill ie. schizophrenia. |
|
I guess making movies and pontificating about baby Bush's assassination was all in fun? I really want to take Olberman, Maher and Mathews duck hunting in south GA. "It's just one of those things officer. We were hunting ducks when my Uzi starting jumping all around and went full auto."
|
|
I wonder if Beck's monster ratings on Fox and CNN/MSNBC's tanking ratings have anything to do with this vitriol?
Their guy won. Their party is in complete control. And the whole system is falling apart. These dickheads, if they want to be relevant, should stop attacking people pointing out the obvious and start putting pressure on the people in power who are fucking up. |

|
|
Bah,....that's just a liberal circle jerk. Nothing more, nothing less. |
|
I don't see them losing any sleep over all the horrible actions perpetrated on a daily basis by Obama supporters against less equal citizens so they'll have to excuse me if I don't lose any sleep over this. |

I'm so sick of people cowering down to these leftists. Screw Obama and his leftist agenda. Anyone who DOESN'T speak out against his socialism is just asking for their rights to be infringed upon. ETA: Rush isn't about hate in any way. |
