“If he once said I want to know how black Wayne Brady is – that chip on my shoulder says that rarely do you threaten a man and you should not fear anyone. Now, I’m not saying I’m Billy Badass, but if bill Maher has his perception of what’s black wrapped up, I would gladly slap the **** out of Mill Maher in the middle of the street, and then I want to see what Bill Maher would do. Now, Bill Maher would call the cops and he would have his lawyer – I’d get sued and lose my house and it’s not worth it for me, but the black man part of me would be so satisfied to slap the **** out of him,”

Wayne Brady Calls Out Bill Maher On Racist Statements [video]

I don't think I've ever heard white progressives call out Bill Maher for his racist and sexist blather.

Why is that?

I think it would be hilarious to see Bill Maher call Wayne Brady an "Uncle Tom" (either figuratively or literally) for being a non-threatening black man and then see Wayne Brady transform from Wayne Brady on Whose Line is it Anyway? into Wayne Brady from that episode of Chappelle's Show and go flat-out gangster on Bill Maher.

Oh, if you don't get what I mean:

Definitely more talented than Maher.

I'm a big fan of both Brady and Maher. I'm sure they both appreciate the publicity this "controversy" is generating.

It's "comedy", and conservatives don't understand comedy. Especially the incisive, nuanced, hilarious and often raunchy variety practiced by Maher.

Someone that indeed could kick Maher's ass into next week. But so could Marcia Brady.

Never heard of Wayne Brady either. I thought of the curly haired kid from the Brady Bunch, but then realized he was black.

Maher hasn't been funny since the mid-1990s and I wouldn't call him nuanced in the slightest.
