A few weeks ago, the CEO of Mozilla was forced to resign because it was revealed in 2008, he supported Prop 8, California's ban on gay marriage. A bad law, yes, but 52% of Californians voted for it. Did they have to resign? Obama was against gay marriage in 2008, does he have to resign? Hillary came around just last year, can she be president? .............Hard to believe Maher said this

Wonder when he got the new writers.

But nothing bad said about MSDNC reporters.

Oh, everyone knows Obama was lying when he said that ... so it’s all good.

There's a lot of truth to that. And then didn't he announce that he was "evolving"? What a total crock. We are no longer a serious country.

Here is my question.
Was obama involved in a gay trist when he murdered those in Bengazi.
And did he change laws in any way so he could not be prosecuted as in DADT etc?
So when did he change the law?

It's easy to dismiss Maher by saying that a broken watch is right twice a day. But this more than just that. Maher is making sense here, and he's landing some hard punches on the radical left.

Yes, coming from Mayer, it’s hard to believe he is in view of the tyranny out there!

I have always believed that it will take the Democrats to tame this monster loosed on our country, or it will not happen peacefully at least, at all.

I am sure there are some among them who are starting to break with the trend, but courageous action against it is not their long suit. Hells bells, it’s not even our long suit. Yet.

My feeling, if he wasn't doing something, uh, untoward, we would know what he was doing by now. Silence equals guilt with this crowd.

Here’s one..so true....

The government consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office.
H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)

He tweeted horrible when he was drafted? Or when he shoved cake in another mans mouth and licked it out on national tv?

Obama isn't in the military.

People forget that Romney has been far to the left of Obama on homosexual issues, before it was cool.

Romney supported fully homosexualizing the military and gay Scout leaders, and full homosexual rights, 20 years ago and was campaigning on it, as governor he gave America gay marriage.

He made some good points but, after reading his entire statement, I see he is just in favor of cutting people some slack, instead of persecuting them, until they “evolve” to the “progressive” point of view, or are completely marginalized by “progress” and are rendered irrelevant.

Even while criticizing political correctness, Maher engages in it.

Bill Maher is a raging ***, and a liberal sack of crap to boot, but I will give him a hat-tip for being consistent to his own professed beliefs.

That’s a REAL rarity among the left, most of them don’t really believe the crazy crap they’re spewing, to them it’s either half-heartedly mouthing the latest gibberish prayers at the altar of political correctness, or a bit of clever misdirection to distract from their own racism and shady business dealings. In either case most modern liberals don’t have the slightest interest in actually being consistent or intellectually honest.

Maher though? At least he strikes me as an honest liberal, and I can’t recall the last time I saw one of those.

It is. But it really doesn’t count with Obama. Everyone, left and right, knew he was lying to get elected. So it wasn’t sincere homophobia.
