I Think that Bill Maher is a Jerk.....

but that doesn't stop him from getting on TV to spew his particular brand of leftist whining.

On the May 13 broadcast of HBO's Real Time With Bill Maher, he referred to the Army's recruiting difficulties by saying that "we've done picked all the low-lying Lynndie England fruit, and now we need warm bodies." This comment does a great disservice to the brave members of all the military services.

Maher's lack of common sense is comparable to Sean Penn's pre-war visit to his buddy, Saddam Hussein. These guys are hungry for publicity in any form, and honestly believe that their celebrity status makes them experts in world affairs. These two "famous" men are probably not capable of understanding the level of sacrifice it takes for a man or woman to enlist, train under unbelievably difficult circumstances, and go thousands of miles away to fight for their country.

I didn't like him then and I still don't like him now. I just find it difficult to be even mildly amused when I hear him speak. Why is this person on TV saying such things?

Bill Maher, host of HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher," says Christians and others who are religious suffer from a neurological disorder that "stops people from thinking."

Is this funny, insightful or just the rantings of a dim-wit? I just think that the guy is a dim-wit.

Said Maher: "When people say to me, 'You hate America,' I don't hate America. I love America. I am just embarrassed that it has been taken over by people like evangelicals, by people who do not believe in science and rationality. It is the 21st century. And I will tell you, my friend. The future does not belong to the evangelicals. The future does not belong to religion."

At least my nation is not run by morons like him and does not belong to people like him but all of us, including people that believe in God.

And of course,he also says things like this about the handicapped...

another controversial comment Maher made on Politically Incorrect when he compared mentally handicapped children to dogs saying:

But I've often said that if I had -- I have two dogs -- if I had two retarded children, I'd be a hero. And yet the dogs, which are pretty much the same thing. What? They're sweet. They're loving. They're kind, but they don't mentally advance at all.... Dogs are like retarded children.

Please don't watch this guys TV programs.
