He didn't call Hillary Clinton that now did he. Or Madeline Albright whom he's interviewed.
Palin is a egotistical, small world, holier than though *****. After the shooting in Arizona she tried to make it all about her.
And she is the brightest of the trilogy of terror, Palin, Bachmann, and O'Donnel.
Youre something else.....
Of course he didnt call Clinton or any other liberal that....if so you might feel differently on it then.
Palin didnt make the shooting about her, the liberals and the media did it. But I guess you were too busy looking for ways to blame conservatives for the acts of psycho, that you werent paying attention. Or you're just being your usual hateful self who ignores the truth.
Trilogy of terror? lol ok. God, I would hate to live in your idealistic, "perfect" world. What a friggin nightmare that would be.
Are you for leaving a aborted baby that is alive to die in a closet without anyone on a pile of dirty laundry an ok thing?
As a nurse at an Illinois hospital in 1999, I discovered babies were being aborted alive and shelved to die in soiled utility rooms. I discovered infanticide.
BAIPA sailed through the U.S. Senate by unanimous vote. Even Sens. Clinton, Kennedy and Kerry agreed a mother’s right to “choose” stopped at her baby’s delivery.
The bill also passed overwhelmingly in the House. NARAL went neutral on it. Abortion enthusiasts publicly agreed that fighting BAIPA would appear extreme. President Bush signed BAIPA into law in 2002.
But in Illinois, the state version of BAIPA repeatedly failed, thanks in large part to then-state Sen. Barack Obama. It only passed in 2005, after Obama left. Obama and Live Birth Abortion | My Dry Fly
Thats all well and good, and I disagree with the live birth abortion.
But what I posted was in response to....

So do you now agree that Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann want to force a woman to deliver a baby against her will? Even if she is raped?
This goes against everything the womans movement has fought for the last 50 years.
I am pro choice within the first trimester, and I'm for late term abortion when it endangers the mothers life and/or the baby is incapable of living even 10% of a normal life.
And just to be clear, when President Obama voted against that late term abortion bill, it was in the state Senate. If you look up the wording of that bill you'll see that it not only sought to end late term abortions, but it sought to end all abortions.

I'm not for a perfect world, but I'm for people making decisions with their own bodies. These women are against that, and one said she was a witch.
My point is this.
This thread was started saying that Maher attacked all women with evil statements. This is not true. He attacked what I perceive to be a moronic woman who couldn't even finish her term as Governor, and others who attacked an even more dense woman who has decided that Lexington and Concord are in New Hampshire, something that even my 7 year old knows is wrong.
Maher has Republican women on his show all the time, and he never calls them these things. Palin and Bachmann are just that stupid.

So you think its appropriate to refer to said women as c*nts and tw*ts? Wouldn't it be better if Maher simply pointed out where these women were wrong or where he disagreed with them? Why the ephitets? It would be like someone who disagreed with a person who happed to be Jewish by simply calling them a "damn heeb" or something like that, instead of pointing out where he/she is wrong.

Sure, people call me an a-hole and a male member all the time. Sticks and stones.
Would I call a woman that, no, but its freedom of speech. And he doesn't call all women that, only these few, who are obviously mentally challenged.

I was about to say what nightflight just said but I think he covered it well and to the point.
Look, you can say how stupid or moronic you think these women are. But Id gladly take my chances with them over the usual cast we get in DC. They arent up to their eyeballs in special interest groups. They are the last people I can see who would knowingly try and screw over the tax payers. They are clearly patriotic and have a strong belief in our nation and what we stand for. They also dont have a past littered with anti-Americans, people like Soros, Bill Ayers, etc. Their parents werent communists or socialists. They didnt grow up surrounded by socialistic or marxist type principles.
Are they Harvard grads? Nope and that sits just fine with me. We've seen plenty of the so called "educated" and what they can do. Ill take the person that can more resemble and relate to being an average American.
And I dont mean any of this toward ODonnell. I dont know her enough and dont know much about her background and such.

Does your 7 year old think there are 57 states like our current President does?

Oh believe me, if he added the word tw*t then he thinks she is too. Giving his opinion they are stupid is fine, but adding the word tw*t, he was usng it to degrade women.

Maher is a comedian - not a political commentator - whose show is on HBO, so he can say any damn thing he pleases. He has probably used the phrase "damn heeb" at some point in his career, along with many others that are equally as offensive.

Bachmann is in DC, and Palin is a half term governor whose main education was as a weather woman.
They are politicians.
If you want to change things, vote for someone who isn't ignorant, and isn't part of the system at all.
Saying that you think they are better than the people in Washington now only proves that you don't know what you're talking about, because Bachmann is a sitting Representative.

No, it wasn't appropriate, but Maher is a comedian. He gets his laughs a lot of the time by saying things that are completely inappropriate. He's also said on his show that he thinks it's disturbing that the most common baby name in the world is Muhammad. Maher makes his living by pushing the envelope, and I personally find him to be hit and miss on that front, but he does have interesting things to say sometimes. I don't watch him all that often though.
Where this thread goes off the rails is by taking his (and other comedians') inappropriate jokes about particular politicians and turning them into a general misogyny.

Reason: It wasn't appropriate. Not "it wasn't inappropriate."
