H/t reader Harry S. Imagine that a prominent media conservative jokingly hoped, in any way shape or form, that a member of the Dem presidential ticket would be shot. How long until the MSM and various others demanded he be fired, a Secret Service investigation launched, etc?
But when Bill Maher jokes about Sarah Palin being shot? Silence, except for the raucous laughter of the studio crowd. Maher offered up his violent fantasy on this past Friday's Real Time on HBO in a regular feature devoted to exploring foreign countries to which people might consider moving in the event of a McCain victory. India was the subject of the week, which led to Maher's invocation of recincarnation, and his "hope" for how Sarah Palin would come back . . . .

Sure hope BM doesn't OD!!
Bill Maher and the left....GARBAGE!
None at all, especially if they think we're all like Maher.
“Our country is sick.”
Double down on “sick.” What passes for humor is sick. And the double standard is too.
What if a Conservative had said, “I hope Barack Obama is reincarnated as a baby about to be aborted”? It would demand non-stop coverage, and townhall meetings.
Yeah, he's reptillian.
You have Democrat operatives on television openly calling for the Republican candidates to be killed, you have people actually shooting at the Republican’s campaign vehicles, and yet all we are hearing about, a week later, is an anonymous shouted comment that never even happened at a Palin rally.
I think you're exactly right...my mom always told me that sarcasm was the lowest form of wit!

Do not make the same mistake as the GOP has been making for 40 years -
these people are NOT the “loyal opposition”.
THEY WANT US DEAD.
God, look at the proboscis on Maher! He looks like one of those Proboscis monkeys. And if he’s so rich why doesn’t he have nose reduction surgery?
Maher is one ugly piece of crap!....
Honestly I think these idiots are so open-minded that their brains fell out.
His nose gets in the room two minutes before his face!.....
Everytime Maher opens his mouth bashing conservatives and religion, I donate $25 to a cause that damages his nastiness. The count just for this month is $575. One more comment and I’ll break $600. His hateful mouth is costing him more than he knows.
“Why use a horse? Id use an Ass.”
Wanted to punish him, not please him...
All of these supposed wildlife lovers live in the big city where the only predators are themselves and other perverts (of course they don’t consider themselves predators and perverts). If they lived in the wild they would be confronted by some dangerous fur-bearing, four-legged creatures.
Maybe next time Maher can come back as unused tisse paper.
Still angry and bitter, Maher tries for another 15 minutes of irrelevancy.
