Bill Maher slams Democrat 'impotence' on Jay Leno [“They couldn’t sell a cubscout to a pedophile”]
Irish Central ^ | February 6, 2010 | Jane Walshe

Bill Maher took another swipe at President Obama when he appeared on Jay Leno’s show on Friday.

The comic was appearing on one of the last Primetime shows in current form. From February 12, the show will air at 11.35, not 10pm.

Maher said the president’s new populist tone worried him. “He’s not a populist,” Maher told his host, “he’s an elitist, that’s what I like about him – he’s smarter than the rest of us.”

Maher criticized Obama’s trip around the country where he is taking on the middle class concerns about jobs. “He’s demanding to see his own birth certificate!” he laughed, continuing: “I just don’t want to see him start bowling again. Remember that, when he hit a 37? Anne Coulter offered to lend him one of her balls.”

He complained the Democrats were cowardly, though he singled John Edwards out for ironic praise. “They are so impotent – not John Edwards, of course – they’re so pathetic.”

“They couldn’t sell healthcare. This is something that the American people wanted. This is something that would save lives, save money. And they couldn’t even sell that. “They couldn’t sell a cubscout to a pedophile,” he added.

Maher praised Obama’s State of the Union address, saying he liked his attack on the Supreme Court’s decision to allow unlimited corporate funding of political campaigns. “People say why is the system broken ... I’ll tell you why, money,” Maher asserted. “It’s exactly this kind of stuff, money. There’s too much money in the system. Everything works backwards.

"If the first primary was in Vermont we would be putting maple syrup in our cars.”

Maher also teased Leno about the recent furore between his show and that of Irish American frontman Conan O’Brien.

“When this show went on the air, liberals were still behind Obama, Tiger Woods was still a role model, and having something exploding in your underpants was a good thing,” Maher joked.

“Now you can’t argue with me, now that you’re Mr. Vulnerable,” he later said.

Clasping Leno’s hand, he said, “You’re holding up so well, Jay. Isn’t he holding up well?”

NBC recently switched Leno’s Prime Time show to a later slot, and in response O’Brien left the network.

Never mind. It is HBO and I tried to send an email protesting Maher and got a "we had a technical problem with your submission" response.

Boycotting HBO seems like a possible response.

“They couldn’t sell a cubscout to a pedophile”

The things that come out of the mouths of progressives/liberals are as obnoxious as the agendas/policies they plan to inflict upon the average American. Sodom and Gomorrah America are dems. Playing Robin Hood in earnest with the taking the hard earned money of working class Americans and distributing it freely to the entitlement-demanding government-subsidized class of America are also dems.

Bill wants a mommy....or a transvestite hooker.

He has probably had one of those already.

Denying an ex-girlfriend's legal claim that he used racial slurs and assaulted her, comedian Bill Maher has fired back at the woman, describing her as a would-be extortionist who launched a campaign to embarrass and humiliate the HBO star after the demise of the pair's ten-month relationship.

In a $9 million palimony lawsuit, Johnson, a centerfold model and former flight attendant also known as Coco Johnsen, claimed that Maher also promised to marry and have children with her, support her financially, and purchase a Beverly Hills home. Portraying himself as Johnson's "latest victim," the 48-year-old Maher contends that the woman's "modus operandi" is to try and shake down former consorts.

Bill Maher: "The women that like me are smart."

Maher holds the record for the most Emmy losses, having lost 22 of his nominations. 11 of these nominations were for Politically Incorrect, while nine were for Real Time. The other two were losses for two of his HBO comedy specials: Bill Maher: I'm Swiss and Bill Maher: The Decider

If Obama was so smart he would have seen the backlash coming and tried a different tactic than jamming it down our throats.

Give the bong a rest, Bill. Which American people?

2DV: I've seen a lot in my time and I have begun to conclude that people like Maher literally say things even they know is screwy just to get headlines and subsequent revenue from a lunatic fringe market. (Ex.: The Rev. Jesse J. & Cousin Al; John Edwards & John Kerry; Big Al Gore!; Obummer... the list is enormous)...It's pretty much free markets at work. The sad part about this method of earning an income is that it is like earning a living from feeding cancer cells - you get paid, but kill people doing it. That would make Mr. Maher a mercenary. Let him pander to his economic and political base and keep aware of those about who would sell our freedom for an income - they don't all look like Mr. Maher...

"Who did Bill Maher blackmail to get to where he is."

His father is/was a big noise in media on the west coast.

No one would give this cretin the time of day otherwise.

Good point. It makes me wonder about what kind of thoughts Maher harbors about Cub Scouts.
That guy is one creepy individual.

Today’s democrats are so incompetent they couldn’t sell a corrupt liberal to Massachusetts voters.

Few things in life would give me greater pleasure than to beat Bill Maher to a bloody pulp with an baseball bat. Never have I ever heard a more vile, loutish and unfunny man as he. Honestly, he needs a punch in the mouth.

Isn’t Maher from Canada? Wouldn’t the little twerp feel more comfortable pushing his socialism and global warming fanaticism there? Or maybe they’re getting fed up with it too?

I will agree that Obama is likely smarter than Maher.

That's not saying much considering both their IQs are around the duh range.
