When asked by a caller how we could get Southern voters to vote for a democrat again, "Comic" Bill Maher just went on the following tirade against the South, Christians and Second Amendment patriots:
You know, that's a sore point with me in the South, the way they have a stranglehold on the electorate because... excuse me... and I love playing the red states, because when I play the red states in my stand-up act, you know, I get all the people who don't usually have someone like me come to their state, so there's a great bonding. And I feel for them, because there's a lot of smart people in the South. But in general, it is the dumbest part of the country.
Excuse me. It is. And also, they're the super patriots - the one part of the country that ever actually seceeded. The one part of the country that ever actually committed treason. And they seem to lead in how we are supposed to think. Because they are more religious. They are more "patriotic". And... umm.. I think it's just a a disservice to our...
Larry King: You think in modern day America, you can still claim a whole region is dumber than another reigon?
Maher: They lead the region in dumbness, yes they do. Because they, there's too many people that just think every problem can be solved by either more guns or more Jesus. And like I said, I'm with the people who are following their compass; not with the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken. They are the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken.
I could have sworn that the area in the nation with the fewest number of brain cells per capita was Hollywood/L.A.
Perhaps a combination of both?
Let's face it, Bill. If the Crusades had succeeded, 911 would never have happened.
A Southern man don't need him around anyhow....
The most racist people I have ever lived around were in the Northeast.
"... there's a lot of smart people in the South"
There ARE not there IS. moron
Maher, get over yourself. You don't matter. You're just one half of a two holer's daily product.
Lets see if you can get your big intellect around that concept.
Let him go ahead and think this.
It may keep out all the riff raff!
Maybe they will all stay away! Please Lord!
,,, Bill, you're what came out the end of the entrails.
Yes...and who were the South's political leaders at the time...Republicans or Democrats....hmmmmmm?
This is not about the south but I was just on that other site to see if there were any polls listed. One of the posts was that if President Bush wins then Montana will become a free country! Any of you from that state?
Since Maher is so opposed to "treason," doubtless he defends the loyalty oaths of the Fifties. Right? Good thing the Hartford Convention didn't succeed in pulling New England out of the Union during the War of 1812 or he'd be talking about them this way!
They lead the region in dumbness, yes they do. Because they, there's too many people that just think every problem can be solved by either more guns or more Jesus. And like I said, I'm with the people who are following their compass; not with the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken. They are the people who are reading the entrails of the chicken.
My, those stupid white Southerners who believe in J*sus. Good thing all those Blacks Mr. Maher supports so much aren't like that! But does this mean that a Third World shaman who actually reads chicken entrails would be ridiculed by Mr. Maher? What European cultural imperialism!
I would challenge Maher to a battle of the wits, but I refuse to fight an unarmed man!
Need a Girly Man alert on this 'un
Say it again!
Maher is a dumbass.
When Mrs Felis moved to TX, she was amazed at how bright Texans are...30 years of lies on yankee TV had her fooled.
When her mother met some of my AL relatives, she was equally amazed. Yup, they walk, chew gum, and can keep up with y'all just fine in conversation.
I think Bill's been smoking too much o' that medical marijuana in his electric car.
And we have nice manners to, bless our hearts.
