bobbo, once again missing the whole point says:

RLF==and I disagree. If there are “so many lies” that you are surprised anyone listens to one of the stand out funny and insightful social comedians/commenters of our time then it should be exceedingly easy for you to give an example or two.

I won’t hold my breath waiting for anything specific from you, but I would be interested in what you might come up with.

You are correctly lumped in===all conclusion, no facts. I’ve already met you more than half way with my own two examples. Show me wrong, that you actually have something substantive to say. Just bad gas otherwise.

Mr Ed==you are describing both of us. But you have bought into an invalid premise==or atleast one that is just alleged without facts. IN CONTEXT what Bill is talking about is who is most likely to be in favor of racial profiling and against Ellen Degeneres (I didn’t note the last half of the segment for his other issues) and in those two cases, the people that are against illegal immigration and who are against Ellen Degeneres and who go out an demonstrate or make the news==may indeed be mostly old white guys. but thats a lot of conditions to whittle the total population of the USA down to.

Does Maher think all old white men are racists, homophobic, or anti-immigrant???—as is suggested by the non-responsive loud mouth got nothing LIEberTARDS on this thread???

Who knows. Everything gets blown out of proportion and out of context when you are a comedian or a blow hard.

Matthew Continetti–Weekly Standard
How neo conservative can you get? Fat lipped jew

#40 If waycism is such a pwoblem, mebe you should move to the south. We have more diversity than that Northwestern liberal enclave you inhabit. Experience is the best education.

Fuck Bill Maher

The problem with this country and in the UK as well is a man named Rupert Murdoch. He is running America into the ground via Fox News, and he’s doing the same in the UK because he owns 40% of the newspapers there.

I won’t shed a tear when he finally shuffles off this mortal coil.

bobbo, writing original comedic material is hard says:

#43–Woody==I can’t really tell from your post. Are you agreeing or disagreeing that Bill Maher selects Yes Men who only agree with him to be on his panel?

Fuck Bill Maher? Ok, Why?

#44–Rolf==you are of course free to do as you wish===like criticize someone with a general conclusion and then not provide any facts at all to back it up==or not.

“You Know” I enjoy holding all of my opinions. Like children they are to me, stuff of my own creation. And for each one of my kiddies, I am proud to have 3-4 facts to back them up, kinda like my kiddies names so to speak. Who are you people with strong opinions but no ideas????? Must be part of that highly diversified Southland we got going here.

#46–Animby==you give the general nature of your dissatisfaction but can you favor us with how exactly Maher went too far with his humiliation? I saw the movie and remember it as “ok” but nothing great or insightful but quite unusual in our religiously oriented culture? I tend to recall and Bill said himself he did not go out of his way to embarass his targets==he just put them on camera and let them embarass themselves.

Highly refined sensibilities you have there Animby. “Tough Crowd” as Bill might say.

If anyone cares to pull and idea or a fact out of their butts, extra credit if you share with us whether you would rather watch a Bill Maher show OR — any of the various preacher shows on the tube? In other words, do you favor wit and criticism you disagree with over mind rotting stupidity, or just the opposite?

RLF says:

Bobbo
I’m reminded of a story I heard about him.
An employee left his coat in the control room. It was about two hours after the show and everyone had left–well, sort of.
To his horror Bill was out on the stage, totally nude, having hot passionate sex. He was stroking, moaning, and screaming out obscenities.

Then with a thunderous crash the tumultuous scene abruptly ended–Bill’s mirror had fallen and shattered.

It was the only funny thing I have ever associated with him.
Just my two cents

“So here is the challenge: rather than restate your conconclusions, for our education, what exactly did/has Bill Maher said that you disagree with and why?”

He’s a smug asshole, is often offensive (in my opinion), and has his own TV show. I don’t need to write a research paper explaining why I don’t like the guy.

Bobbo offers no facts yet remains tedious says says:

I claim others offer no facts while I do pretty much the same. I like to type my missives with the occasional all caps EMPHASIS to prove how passionate I am. Occasionally I’ll throw in the word “context” to show how erudite I am.

I’ll continue to bloviate again and again until you prove that Bill Maher is a comedic genius that I KNOW him to be.

bobbo, writing original comedic material is hard says:

#52–brm==too general. Again nothing specific. You see, “anyone” with an opinion could be described as you do. Where’s the beef?

#53–C’monadoor==Homework? If you’ve done it, why not share from your crib sheets?

#54–Bobbo==incorrect, wrong, on EACH point you make and GENERALLY off point, but still funny. Thanks.

#55–Pedo==god bless ya Pedo. You will always be my favority. Hang in there.

Actually since Bobbo took the least amount of effort possible, and its obvious no one posting on this thread understands or is up to the task of actually responding to a question, let me demonstrate by matching an idea with an opposing idea and support.

I claim others offer no facts /// go thru the thread and quote the “facts” you by implication claim I gloss over.

while I do pretty much the same. /// Facts are not required to ask a question. Questions are used to receive facts. Nonetheless, I did give two examples of what a more specific complaint might look like.

I like to type my missives with the occasional all caps EMPHASIS to prove how passionate I am. /// Rarely passion. More FOR EMPHASIS to help my sort attention span opponents along.

Occasionally I’ll throw in the word “context” to show how erudite I am. /// No, trying to limit the wild rides off on a tangent. In CONTEXT, don’t you think a statement made by a comedian is different than the same statement made by a candidate running for office, or found as a chapter heading in a BOOK on the subject and so forth? How can the same words, the same “idea” be different? Context.

I’ll continue to bloviate /// I’ll cop to that although “if” you agree with me, or seek to weigh the pro’s and con’s of the opposing factors I include when present and recognized, or rise to a strech goal===could be music.

again and again until you prove that Bill Maher is a comedic genius that I KNOW him to be. /// I called him a “stand out” comedian of our time ((anyone with his own show is)) and one I often disagreed with. He’s no George Carlin, short of Genius.

I had a work colleague who invited me to go to a George Carlin Concert with his wife and him. It was very good. Lot’s of “f*ck the government” and a few anti-religious comments thrown in. My friend and his wife did not like it at all and said they did not realize how foul and disrespectful his live act was. I said–yea pretty much. Their displeasure was real and easily supported. They weren’t the type to go onto a blog and whine like little LIEberTARDS about the issue though. They were honest thoughtful people.

Gosh, its rather sad. Full of sound and fury signifying nothing.

# 47 bobbo, said, “Animby==you give the general nature of your dissatisfaction but can you favor us with how exactly Maher went too far with his humiliation?”

Nope. Sorry, Bobbo. I watched it. I know how it made me feel. And I’ve no great desire to watch it again to document my disgust. However, if you’d like to host a little koffee klatch and video review with several of our friends here, I’d make an exception and offer my opinions as we go. I take my coffee strong and black but I do like dainty little finger sandwiches.
