Seems to be exposing the hypocrisy of the Left/dems/obama is having the intended effect. I mean really, how can they justify the "outrage" over Rush, but then totally ignore and condone the behavior of vile leftists like Maher AND take his money as well?

David Axelrod bails on HBO's Bill Maher amid controversy - POLITICO.com

Quote:
The Daily noted this when reporting last Wednesday that, according to an HBO spokeswoman, Axelrod was scheduled to appear on Maher’s show in the coming weeks.

Axelrod’s cold feet are not the only sign that the right’s attacks on Maher seem to be gaining some traction.

On Thursday, The Daily Caller reported that the Alabama Democratic Party had scrubbed its website of an announcement for its upcoming fundraiser headlined by Maher.
When will obama's SuperPac return the dirty, uncivil money?

Axelrod is a trip! Obama was barely in the white house that first winter and they had a dang good snowstorm, and good 'ole Axelrod let us know the truth about the liar, early on.

BO had said during campaign season that he would be careful with electricity in the white house. I saw him say it and yet it's so vague as to exactly what he said....something about turning some lights out or something....just too dang vague.

Axelrod said and this is not quite a quote..."he's got it so hot in there you could almost grow orchids!"

heh heh....yeah, I like Axelrod and thought that goof of his and so early in the administration's reign might have gotten him put out of a job.

While it would be nice to see the left actually pay for their hypocrisy for once, I'd really rather let both Maher and Rush both just say what they want and keep the first ammendment intact. As long as no laws are being broken, if you don't like what is said on a show then don't watch the show. Trying to stop people from expressing themselves is un-American.

Yes, that's all fine and good to stop the "Government" from limiting free speech. That does not extend to private citizens who choose to boycott companies who support those that espouse views they believe are vile. Rush can say what he wants, people are free to organize boycotts of who they want.
