Kurt Russell: Bill Maher Is a Fake Libertarian
breitbart ^ | 12/22/2015 | John Nolte

Posted on 12/22/2015 10:20:38 AM PST by DFG

Out promoting his new film “The Hateful Eight,” longtime libertarian Kurt Russell opened up again about his politics, this time to the Daily Beast, where he pointed out an obvious fact: that Bill Maher is nothing close to a libertarian. “I’m not a Bill Maher libertarian,” Russell said. “That’s faux-libertarianism. He doesn’t know what it is. I like him, and he’s a nice guy, but seriously, that’s not libertarianism.”

The other thing I've found is that a lot of liberals in Hollywood are faux-liberals, and a lot of Republicans in Hollywood are faux-conservatives. When I was a young guy, I was finding myself not quite being able to . . . . buy into a political culture. . . . I finally said, "Why don't I go back and see what the Founding Fathers were all about, and see how that stacked up."

Good advice. I've always liked Kurt Russell.

He is a libertine, if anything. Also a dirtbag.

The word “Libertarian” at the end of the headline serves no purpose.

BTW re: the attached video - nice reposte by Breitbart.

And a lame defense by Maher - 'I'm not afraid to say European socialism works'. Which is no kind of response at all to someone who just called you a fraud.

Breitbart went on Maher's show before he died.

He told Maher that his pretense of being a libertarian was BS, that it was obvious he was just another typical leftist statist pretending he was something else.

I don't watch Maher, it seems he likes to dominate conversations, but he was left speechless by Breitbart. No defense, just silence.

Unmasked. Totally unmasked.

Maher is a full-out liberal douche-bag.

If he was a libertarian he would be against what the democrats are doing far more than the Republicans.

Russell is correct about Maher...but I doubt one in ten Americans knows what a Libertarian is. I am not one, but Libertarianism is the only viable alternative to conservatism. And, of course, they merge (or should merge) on many issues.

Today's version of liberalism is more fascism than liberalism.

We all should remember Bill Maher donating $1 million dollars to Communist Obama and his Super Pac.

I admit I watched to see Andy not PeenFace. Now I most go flog myself for going back on my vow “ never, ever watch PeenFace”.

BTW the only reason he was half way decent to the black young lady is that Peen craves black ladies. Sort of like the Kardashians in reverse
