Excuse me. Maher said nasty things about Governor Sarah Palin every time he opened his mouth. Maher's mouth seems to have been formed for the purpose of saying foul things.
I only remember one particularly nasty epithet. Which is why people here can source it.
I think Sarah Palin deserved respect because she's a human being. I don't understand your fascination with adding "Governor" and "candidate for the second highest office in the land." I think Sarah Palin deserved respect because she's a fine and decent person and a woman to boot.
I'm curious - do you think she deserved extra respect because she was "also a candidate for the second highest office in the land"?
I hope not. I made a lot of jokes about Joe Biden during the election, and I said a lot of rude things. I plan to do so if he's on the ticket in 2012.
