Bill Maher on Larry King Tonight

[Sugarcoated]

Heads up

[Catherine Vincent]

1. ah, he's the guest host

Good deal.

[oasis]

2. Repug David Drier and former Dem senator George Mitchell.

[oasis]

3. David Gergen on too. It has the makings of an interesting show.

[oasis]

4. "If you purposely target civilians as a method of war, it's terrorism".

Maher says, citing the bombing of Dresden and Hiroshima WWII.

[CatWoman]

5. A distinct improvement over Larry, isn't he?

:D

[CatWoman]

19. they sound like DU now

debating the teachers having sex with their students.

The men: "Man, where were they when I was in school"??

[oasis]

20. "Sound like DU". Bill "politically incorrect" Maher is a 1,000 poster here

:P

[radio4progressives]

26. He is? what's his addy? NT

[oasis]

27. I kid, I kid. Look at the emiticon.

:P

[AllieB]

Bill is so much more palatable than that alien in suspenders

[oasis]

6. Maher seems annoyed that the Dems aren't moving to fillibuster Alito.

[Idioteque]

7. David Gergen is making the point that the Democrats blew it on Alito n/t

[Catherine Vincent]

8. That figures that Drier would try and defend that evil Tom Delay!

And I'm just waiting on him to say Dems took money from republican Abramoff!

[karlrschneider]

9. Wow! I just discovered that surfing channels! I never watch LK but this

might be worthwhile...GMTA
:D

[Zen Democrat]

10. Okay. Bill Maher definitely needs to replace Larry King -- permanently.

They all seem a little thrown off that Bill is not swallowing the talking points. I'm enjoying this.

[babylonsister]

11. Amen! He's great if a bit reserved. nt

[oasis]

12. Maher says muslims do "kooky" stuff and Mitchell quickly corrects him.

[WhiteTara]

13. Bill is such a weak willy

I am so sad that he can't stand up to ONE SINGLE LIE! Democrats were NOT part of this scandal!

[babylonsister]

14. I wish he had said something also, RE: Dems not being involved,

but he is 'playing' Larry King, so probably doesn't want to jeopardize that. He's still getting his digs in.

[renie408]

16. I couldn't believe he didn't refute Drier's

comment that "President Bush has been an incredibly strong leader for this country." And that the economy was going great with 4.9% unemployment blah blah blah. Why did he just let all that go by?

[ikojo]

18. Bill Maher is no wonk...I doubt he reads much outside the

corporate media.

[WhiteTara]

23. Bill's not a comedian, he's a joke

I'm sorry, he needs to be replaced.

[minkyboodle]

15. ahhh drier

that guy makes my skin crawl.... good thing bill lets him rattle off
a string of lies there before the end of the segment.... I feel weird
as an atheist saying this, but I wish Maher would expend a tenth of the
energy he spends making fun of religion on calling the Bush administration
on their bullshit. Oh well still entertaining and better than Larry
the Lizard.

[babylonsister]

17. Another instance I wish Bill had spoken up: that first caller lambasted

repugs, Drier full of righteous indignation, and no one said anything.

[oasis]

21. Atty. Mark Geragos rips Chimpy for going around FISA. Maher is taking

up for the Chimp "to keep us safe". :wow:

[babylonsister]

22. Blew my mind; Maher agrees w/wiretapping? WTF?? nt

[minkyboodle]

24. thats dissapointing...

so much for the libertarian angle...

[A-Schwarzenegger]

25. I get a kick out of DUers who still fall for Maher's bullshit.

He's a know-nothing jerkoff who's funny once in a blue moon
and right half the time, the same percentage as a dog pushing
a button to find a bone.

[Pryderi]

28. I'd rather see Franken.
