| Bill Maher says "I am different from Rush Limbaugh" but defines himself as a political pundit. This is his own book cover. |
In an interview with Jake Tapper of ABC News last week, Bill Maher went on the attack, justifying his use of the words "cunt" and "twat" in his mindless attacks against Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Michelle Malkin, Laura Ingraham and, well, just about any Democrat lackey he is not sleeping with at the time.
In the interview, he makes a statement that happens to be absolutely correct :
“The First Amendment was specifically designed for citizens to insult politicians. Libel laws were written to protect law students speaking out on political issues from getting called whores by Oxycontin addicts.”
Too bad his president and the One Worlders in power, today, do not agree. They obviously believe that the first Amendment, if it counts for anything, protects them, the protectors of truth, against the onslaught of the encroaching conservative hordes. Card Check, a socialist inspired legislative idea that would stifle the secret union votes, the so-called "Fairness Doctrine," another proposed piece of legislation, designed to ultimately silence Conservative Talk Media (Fox, Limbaugh/Hannity/Levin/Hewitt, and the thousands of local conservative talk shows aired each day). The radicalized white/black anti-capitalist cabal has talked about making it illegal to discuss "creationism" in our schools or to voice conservative/religious opinions in the federally financed public square. Obama has even hinted at limiting political speech that he deems "lies and mistruth" in one of his many commencement speech, two years ago (2010).
Whether Limbaugh slandered Sandra Fluke or simply concluded that only a slut would jump in the sack three times a day, everyday, for three years, well, you can be the judge of that.

Maher goes on to say, "
I’m a comedian – not just a guy who says he is, like Rush, but
someone who – well, you saw me do stand-up last year in D.C. There’s a
big difference between just saying you’re a comedian and going out and
getting thousands of people to laugh hard for 90 minutes.

Actually, there is no difference between what Maher does and what goes on during the Rush Limbaugh show . . . . . . no difference at all. Maher is not nearly as funny as he thinks he is, and is considerably more serious than his defenders pretend him to be. Maher is every bit a political pundit, an entertainer using events of the day and the social venue of the day, as he spews his version of truth to all who will take time to listen.
The Left has defined Limbaugh as the unofficial head of the GOP. Of course, he is not, but the Left loves to define its own reality and then, pretend it is, ahhh, reality.
The idiocy of Maher's defense, is obvious. A "comedian" is not one who only does "stand up." And Maher should try to comedy/political talk for three hours a day, five days a week instead of 90 minutes, every once in a while.
Finally, there is the question as to whether Sandra Fluke is a private citizen or a political operative. Of course, "Joe the Plumber" was very much a private citizen when MSNBC and CNN began hounding him, investigating every aspect of his private life but no one on the Left gives a care about that fact.
The curious reality in all this, is the fact that the Lefties are getting their One World Rumps kicked into the next life during this particular news cycle.
