August 16, 200719 yr Author Oh come on, I'm a Conservative and I love Carlin. Seen him live twice. BTW, Maher is NOT a funny guy, just a sad little man that wishes he had a sense of humor like Carlin's. George Carlin is an atheist and a complainer, and I won't waste one minute of my time listening to anything he has to say...
August 16, 200719 yr George Carlin is an atheist and a complainer, and I won't waste one minute of my time listening to anything he has to say...You're too serious.
August 16, 200719 yr Maher's line about Mitt being the only monogamous one was pretty funny. He bashes the right because the right is in the White House. I bet if you look back, he took ol' Bill to task as well.
August 16, 200719 yr Author Maher's line about Mitt being the only monogamous one was pretty funny. He bashes the right because the right is in the White House. I bet if you look back, he took ol' Bill to task as well. His comments on the left do not remotely approach comments on the right in viciousness or sheer numbers. Not even remotely in the ballpark... The only time I laughed watching the whole deal was when he talked about all the men calling their wives on the phone every time he is on a plane getting ready to take off...he nailed that one, most men are whipped bad, lol...

Either you watch a guy you can't stand all of the time or you don't see him enough to know how much he rips on the Dems. Which one is it?

I bet if you look back, he took ol' Bill to task as well. Oh, most definitely. Here are a couple: "A lot of people have warned President Clinton that Bosnia will turn into another Vietnam, which would be embarrassing for him because he'll have to go back to college." "A recent Washington Post poll revealed that sixty percent of Americans approve of the president's performance, although women in the 18-to-25 year-old category wish he would last a little longer."

That's taking him to task? LOL! :sssh:
August 16, 200719 yr Here's an interesting one from the same era (mid-90's): "And yet, matters of life and death now seem to many anapposite place for partisan politics - not that I can even figure out where the partisans line up. Take abortion, for example. It seems to me that pro-choice should be a conservative position. Conservatives are for unrestricted choice in everything: what school you can go to, what doctor you can pick, who you can pal around with. 'Get the government off the people's back,' Ronald Reagan said - but apparently in their uterus is okay. The message from religion is "Hey, life's okay, but things really get good when you're dead. But if they really believe that, why make such a fuss about hanging on to life for unwanted fetuses and the terminally ill? There probably is no way to really prepare for death, except to maintain the faith that in death, there awaits us something more sublime than we've known on earth. And it seems to me that for anyone who really believes that, there would be a greater tolerance for the issues of life that now divide us so much on earth."
August 16, 200719 yr Author ^^^A great example of why he's an idiot...He's railing against conservatives' making "such a fuss about hanging on to life for unwanted fetuses and the terminally ill."
August 16, 200719 yr I've watched Maher for a long time ... he really didn't turn on Bush and the Religious Right so much until the 2004 election.
August 16, 200719 yr He should have Ted Nugent on his show again....Bill did such a great job with him the first time..what kind of idiot allows his staff to book a man that can cut him to pieces at every turn!!! Maher is a moron! Bill Maher,Oprah Winfrey and Rush Limbaugh are the reason I read!! I have but one word to describe them and their ilk...DRIVEL. Pick up a book!

Carlin was always a favorite of mine. Saw him live at EKU back in the '80's. Always loved his Baseball/Football skit.
