Maher: Palin Would Kill Indians From a Helicopter
NRO ^ | August 3, 2009 | Tim Graham

Days before the 2008 election, HBO host Bill Maher expressed his hatred for Sarah Palin: "If there is such a thing as karma, let's hope that Sarah Palin comes back as a wolf being shot from a plane." Maher returned to the wolf-shooting metaphors on Friday night's Real Time as he discussed her farewell address in Alaska – except this time Maher suggested Palin would execute Cherokee Indians. Right-leaning humorist Joe Queenan set off the "joking."

QUEENAN: Are you blaming Sarah Palin for the extermination of the Cherokee tribe?

MAHER: I certainly am.

QUEENAN: Exactly.

MAHER: Not that she did it, but if she was around then, she would have – from a helicopter, like she did the wolves.

Notice how the logic collapses: Palin in a helicopter in the 1800s? That was not the only moment when the Palin mockery seemed a little mangled on the Maher show. This is how the bashing began:

Bill Maher cares more about the wolves then the victims of 9/11, he called the terrorists who killed them “brave” this guy is a NUT. He is showing everyone what liberals really are, if people haven’t figured it out already, these leftists are beyond sick. They should lump them all together and stick them in a padded room

You can dig up the dirt but Maher will gleefully wallow in it.

This guy is so over the top I cannot even begin. His logic, speech and morals mirror his taste in Women, in the Trash Heap.

A disgusting and pathetic specimen.

Bill Maher looks like what Cheryl Crow leaves on her one square of toilet paper after wiping vigorously.

I guess HBO has given him a show for the same reason they are running:

1 Hung, about a male gigolo with a big you know

2 Teddy - A tribute to Teddy Kennedy

3 True Blood (although I love the show) which regularly dumps on religion as bigotry

I’m sure I’m missing many other examples.

Her husband is an Indian. Maher from a helicopter is an idea, if there is pay per view available.

Grow up, Maher. You give snot-nosed, immature little brats a bad name.

I confess, I like TB also, but the rest of HBO’s schedule sucks ass. I mostly watch Starz or the others....

Palin is married to a Native Alaskan.

Now is the time to start calling Maher a racist for his attack on Native people. Start a recall petition. Stand in his audience and question his intelligence. File a charge with some civil rights commission. Call what he said a “hate crime.”

The time has long passed to be nice to these people. Personalize him; polarize him; and do the same thing to him that he wants to do to Sarah Palin. He’s got more money than Sarah, so he should be able to put up with it.

*****really really annoyed at this crap*******

Maher would insult Sarah Palin if she cured a million people of cancer.

Got that one topped, friend’s sister in Hollywood land wants to protect the trees because the Native Americans said trees contain a “noble spirit”.

Meanwhile, she is an angry aggressive supporter of aborting humans.

Wolves/Trees vs. Humans.

Indians, Bill? No. Probably not. Todd’s actually part Inuit. Tell me you knew.

Now, bloggers, on the other hand...

She needs to watch those poor wolves running down a baby caribou

In fact, maybe Bill Maher will be reincarnated as a baby caribou

Which party was it that did drive the Cherokees from their homes? Anyone?

This is not good! Some of my raging lunatic liberal relatives/friends get their news from Bill Maher.
