Just watched Bill Maher...Christopher Hitchens is the
biggest d*ck there ever was...he was flipping off the audience because they dared to question Bush and his policies.

Can't have that now can we?

What a rude guest.

1. Me thinks Chris be "done" for this season.

Cleland, a true american hero, looked at that drunken sot with such disdain.

I think The Hitch hoofed-it out before the audience rushed him :rofl:

2. Yes, it did appear...
that he left immediately. No sight of him when Bill went over to shake hands with the others. He was a major prick.

3. Sntichens has left the jolly drunk stage behind altogether
Now he's just a bitter boozer.

What were they booing him about? Not that they needed a reason, mind you.

I heard he said FUCK YOU as he left. I have no cable, so won't be able to confirm.

5. wow.
what does he expect, really. He's got that thing where whatever he says sounds good no matter how ridiculous it is but I think people have finally gotten past that. I wonder how many years he's got before he's a wet brain...I know that David Brock said he drank like a lush at dinner with him around 5-10 years ago. I can't remember his exact words, something like 'I've never seen such a display of self-destruction" yada, yada, yada, so it must have been really repulsive to witness.

10. You can download iTunes and get the podcast of the
show about a week after it airs on HBO. It's not a video but you get the audio. Hitchens was flipping off the audience because they booed or hissed about Bush.

4. As clueless and self-obsessed as Bernard Henri-Lévy
Edited on Tue Aug-29-06 02:12 PM by Fenris
But without the tanned physique and air of mystery.

9. Bill Maher Is A Waste Of Time
His show has become lame, and he's too conservative for my tastes.

I think he tries to have it both ways. Kisses up and plays nice with his conservative guests, because he wants to make sure he continues having conservative guests.

It's to the point that he would rather give benefit of the doubt to a conserv. guest, while belittling someone like Max Cleland.

He may be more liberal than most, but he's still too much of a suck up for my tastes. I get sick when he gives King george credit for something, which he seems to do more frequently each passing year.
