Bill Maher's Non-Apology on the pope
HBO via YouTube ^ | April 18, 2008 | Bill Maher

Posted on 04/18/2008 11:47:59 PM PDT by Saint Reagan

"The pope was not a Nazi. When he was a teenager, he was in the Hitler youth, which meant he said the oath directly to Hitler and not to the Nazis ... which is sort of worse, okay."

The Pope never attended a meeting and as I understand it, he had an Uncle or Cousin or some relative fill out the requisite paper work for him at the time.

This guy disgust me. I won’t turn his show on.

The Hitler youth program was a very large organization. Weren’t almost all German kids in it?

I don’t see how that satisfies. Maher should be fired or HBO
boycotted.

What else can one call bestial freaks like Maher, Olbermann, and those like them, but subhuman?

I watched HBO and Bill Maher tonight and was even more offended by his non apology and his ignoramus guests.

I have not had respect for Maher for years and even less so after his last arrogant stunt.

God help me but liberals are dangerous to America.

Has Bill said anything as bad about Mohammed?
Of course not—he’s a typical anti-Christian leftist coward wholly dependent on the adulation of those who hate the good in America.
He has free speach rights but I will take a razor wire enema before I ever watch HBO again.

It was the near mandatory Boy Scouts of Nazi Germany—to eschew the organization not only endangered the child’s future but his family’s present.
But Maher knew all this—he and his bud Chris Hitchens are just common Christian haters.
Hell is full of such imbeciles—but they will make room for two more.

I'm certain pledges to sacrifice for the Earth and ceremonial commitments to serve our enemies are familiar to all school kids in the USA.

That's what I thought. Thanks for the response.

Maher is a reprehensible excuse for a human being.

I seem to recall something about his followers being braver than Americans because they were willing to fly planes into buildings, while the cowardly Americans cravenly invented technology which would minimize civilian casualties.

The only one I felt bad for tonight was Ayaan-Hirsi Ali.

She rode along quietly while the rest spewed their sh**, but something must have tweaked her cus' she had this 'WTH am I doing here?!' look on her face by the end the show that I've Never seen from her in Any interview..

REALLY uncomfortable.

Absolutely agree with you on Maher too!

His "I go after Islam too" reference to the burka fashion show he did last season was pathetic!

Try talking sh** about Mo' or some big-time Imam like you did the the Pope, tough-guy.

Honestly, who does this punk think he's kidding?!

Refusing on principle to join the Hitler Youth would have meant a one-way trip to Dachau not only for young Ratzinger but probably for his whole family.

As an all-round liberal superstar; and therefore an Israel basher, jihad apologist, and peacenik subversive; Bill Maher is far more complicit in today’s version of Nazism than the Pope ever was in the original.
Far worse, Maher is a grown man and his life is not at risk; he does it for money and power alone.

Maher is filth.

So Maher does find some good in at least one religion.
Gee,and I thought he was an equal opportunity bigot.
My God,who are this creature’s audience?

I’m not familiar with Ayaan-Hirsi Ali. I looked up a photo, but didn’t recognize her.

You touch on something that I have long wondered. I don’t think everyone on the left is vile. Some folks were born Democrats and they’ve never changed ranks. What baffles me, is don’t they have moments when the hear what the left is doing, and have that come to Jesus moment, where they can’t swollow what the left is peddling any longer? It sure doesn’t look like it.

I have seriously had it with regard to the Republican party. I simply cannot support where it is headed any longer. Don’t other people have their fill too with regard to the Democrats? I sure don’t see it.

Yeah right. He goes after Islam. That right there should tip you off, he thinks they’re on equal footing. He’s a well grounded guy huh.

I think he’s kidding himself. Judgement day looms...

asking Maher to apologize gives him importance - who cares what the little non relevant said.

Bill Maher is as pretentious as they come. He characterizes himself as “politically incorrect” then proceeds to “satirize” safe, out of date targets like “neo-nazis” or the Klu Klux Klan. When he’s really feeling reckless he could always blame a bridge collapse on Bush.

But there comes a time when even a no talent , unimaginative “satirst” just keeps getting lamer and lamer. Now he’s a desperate man in on a frantic mission and comes up with a plan! After a full day of rehearsal he’s got it down. The new Bill Maher strides to state center and .......... CALLS THE POPE A NAZI! Wow he must think that he has really outdone himself now! Only you could have gotten at least as good “shock jock” stuff as that anyday last year by tuning in to Rosie O’Donnell (before her audience got bored silly with her).

Lenny Bruce had talent and craft. He talked about some tactics of last resort for no-talent comedians: walk out on the stage with your fly open, pick your nose, make fun of someone’s name, etc. In a skit the end of the line for one guy like that comes when he performs at the Palladium in London and can’t get a laugh. Out of frustration he starts yelling “Screw the Irish” at his audience and to his horror a race riot ensues. At the end he’s throwing up in the toilet and the manager is trying to find a way to sneak him out of the country.
