He should consider himself lucky. I thought Ben Affleck was gonna kill him.
agree, I thought Ben had a raging, hysterical, irrational tantrum over Bill's comments. Not uncommon behavior for the left when they disagree with anyone. No one else but them is right or should be Allowed to have another opinion.
The guy has been ripping on Christianity for years but it isn't until he gets in on Islam that people really freak out?
Good point. Both Islam and Christianity have always tended to be color blind. There are blacks, whites, Asians--pretty much everything under the sun--in both. But it's not until someone criticizes Islam that it becomes an attack on 'brown people' (as lefties often phrase it).
Maher uses Islamic radicals as part of his continual attack on religious belief. Thats fine, its what he does, he is paid to be controversial.
I agree that the Islamic religion is young, and they do terrible things in the name of their God. That said, 95% of the Islamic world just wants to live a normal life without anyone else telling them what to do, just like 95% of Americans. We aren't that different in most ways. We are all people. We just want to have a family, have love, have freedom, and a good life for our children.
World Public Opinion: 61% of Egyptians approve of attacks on Americans

62% of Jordanians approve of some or most groups that attack Americans (21% oppose)
42% of Turks approve of some or most groups that attack Americans (45% oppose)
A minority of Muslims disagreed entirely with terror attacks on Americans:
(Egypt 34%; Indonesia 45%; Pakistan 33%)
About half of those opposed to attacking Americans were sympathetic with al-Qaeda’s attitude toward the U.S.
A petition to remove Bill Maher as commencement speaker at Berkeley had 2200 signatures as of Tues morning.
Bill Maher is finding out what conservatives have known for a long time: if you don't march in lock step with the left, you are going to be labeled a 'bigot.' Kirby Wilbur, who used to be a radio talk host, then was chair of the Washington State Republican party, said (parahphrase): "the definition of bigot is a conservative who is winning an argument." We need to update this. It turns out that a bigot can be a liberal who is winning an argument as well.

98 or 99% of conservatives don't belong to or agree with the KKK or other such organization but that never stops liberals from broad painting them all as racists
Bill Mayer speaks out against Islam extremism and is branded as racist, conservatives or anybody who speaks out against illegal immigration are branded racists, fact is progressive liberals use the race card to stomp out real conversation on topics. Progressive liberals are not proponents for free speech, they are in fact very controlling and far from the dictionary term of "liberal".
I suppose liberals go easy on Muslims and look for any reason to put down christians because of the thought of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".
