Ah, I think you have pinpointed his principles! I would add though that I think he has become a bit more exposed to the right’s point of view (on some issues) and is conflicted a bit - (not enough to change his mind of course) but it is nice to see the small changes...

Dammit, that’s twice he’s been right!

It's 12:00 o'clock twice a day, still broken.

Maher is your typical bedwetting liberal pond scum.
He couldn’t change enough to satisfy me although in many
cases I welcome those who see the light. Personally, I
am not even bothered by conservative athiests. But there
is way too much slimy factor going on, here. Stay where you’re
at butt nugget Billy. You wear it well.

I think the LA pig-pickin’ (where he had to ventilate the boar) was part of the turnaround... he enjoys shooting now!

I am curious what effect Broadway playwright David Mamet has on these folks since his revelation in 2008?

Is Bill feeling okay? He seems to have caught a case of the Common Sensies. Hope his eyes are being opened to the truth.

And all of the billions of bullets being purchased by the government can penetrate the flesh of left wingers as easily as they can that of conservatives.

That’s how the liberals are. They will cheer it on until it starts to affect them personally, just like in Martin Niemöller’s poem . . .

"Hey Maher - It is your buddy whose ass is sitting in the Oval Office."

Of course i agree with your thoughts, but in a moment being provocative, . . .

Do you think the actions of the Boston Police or any other metropolitan police department would have been different under a George Bush? Or a conservative leaning President?

I don’t know who David Mamet is. I’m afraid I’m a redneck Texan... sorry.

...there IS a little hope for him now!

For a moment there, I thought you said rope, and was about to enthusiastically agree with you.

Your point is well taken

The story of Clarence Thomas and playwright David Mamet bear that which you say.

"I don’t know who David Mamet is. I’m afraid I’m a redneck Texan... sorry."

LOL. Nothing to be sorry for. I would rather have a good ole boy watching my back than anyone else.

Mamet is a award winning playwright, essayist, screenwriter, and film director. The Verdict, Wag the Dog,

Mamet has also wrote the screenplay The Postman Always Rings Twice, The Untouchables, Hoffa, Ronin, The Edge and Hannibal

In 2008(?) he wrote a wonderful piece of why he is no longer a brain dead liberal. The New York Times has gone out of their way to destroy him.

Correction: I know who David Mamet is now. Thanks.

I wish Baldwin didn’t appear in so many movies I like, such as The Edge. I just despise that mf.

Well Billy Boy, just wait till it becomes a tyrannical police state.
The local county sheriffs are the last line. Lots of them refuse to participate.
Like the movie..we should all support a good local sheriff.
