What a douche.

I love Bill Maher. It's distasteful, I know...I think a lot of people are gonna sport that as a costume this year. Just like Sigfried and Roy a few years ago.

Is he supposed to be like dead for 2 months as well, because if so, good makeup. If not, holy shit!

Who is that?

No, serious, who IS Bill Maher?

He used to be funny, but now he's just wrong on so many levels.

He hosts a show on HBO. Here's one of my favorite blurbs from him:

We demonize Mark Foley but ignore the industries medicating children and making them fat, and even open our schools to people trying to kill them -- military recruiters.

By Bill Maher


Oct. 13, 2006 | If you think the worst thing Congress doesn't protect young people from is Mark Foley, wake up and smell the burning planet. The ice caps are cracking, the coral reefs are bleaching, and we're losing two species an hour. The birds have bird flu, the cows have mad cow, and our poisoned groundwater has turned spinach into a side dish of mass destruction. Our schools are shooting galleries, our beaches are cancer wards, and under George W. Bush -- for the first time in 45 years -- our country's infant mortality rate actually went up.

Read the labels on your food. It turns out the healthiest thing you can put in your body is Mark Foley's penis. He was probably the first fruit those pages ever came into contact with that wasn't drenched in pesticide.

But that's America for you -- a red herring culture, always scared of the wrong things. The fact is, there are a lot of creepy middle-aged men out there lusting for your kids. They work for MTV, the pharmaceutical industry, McDonald's, Marlboro and K Street. And recently, there's been a rash of strangers making their way onto school campuses and targeting our children for death. They're called military recruiters.

More young Americans were crippled in Iraq last month than in any month in the past three years. And the scandal is that Mark Foley wants to show them a good time before they go? When will our closeted gay congressmen learn? Our boys aren't for pleasure. They're for cannon fodder. They shouldn't be another notch on your bedpost. They should be a comma in Bush's war. If I hear a zipper, it had better be on a body bag.

Why aren't Democrats and the media hammering away every day about who we're supposed to be fighting for over there and what the plan is. Yes, Mark Foley was wrong to ask teenagers how long their penises were -- but at least someone on Capitol Hill was asking questions. We're the predators. Because we have an entire economy built on asking young people what they want, making the cheapest, sleaziest form of it they'll accept, and selling it to them until they choke on it and die.

You know who's grabbing your kids at too young an age? Merck, Pfizer and GlaxoSmithKline, by convincing you they're depressed, hyperactive or suffering from attention-deficit disorder and so they must all get medicated. The drug dealers hooking your kids aren't in South America, they're in the halls of Congress handing out campaign donations to your congressmen. Mark Foley says he never slept with those kids, and I believe him, because American children are so hopped up on pills I doubt any of them could get it up.

From 1995 to 2002, the number of children prescribed antipsychotic drugs increased by over 400 percent. Either our children are going insane -- which we might look on as a problem -- or, more likely, we have, for profit, created a nation of little junkies. So stop already with the righteous moral indignation about predators -- this whole country is trying to get inside your kid's pants because that's where he keeps the money Daddy gave him to stay out of his hair.

I don't care if Mark Foley had been asking boys to describe their penises because I have some sad news for you: Your kid is so larded out on Cheetos and Yoo-hoo, he can't even see his penis. We live in a country where the ultimate consumer is an obese 16-year-old hooked up at one end to a Big Gulp and at the other to a PlayStation. So many of our kids today are fat drug addicts, it's almost as if Rush Limbaugh had had puppies.

In conclusion, we can pretend that the biggest threat to "our children" is some creep on the Internet, or we can admit it's Mom and Dad. When your son can't find France on a map, or touch his toes with his hands, or understand that the ads on TV are lying -- including the one in which the Marine turns into Lancelot -- then the person fucking him is you

The costume was wrong, yes. But as far as his views on America, I agree with him probably 95%.

HamsterHuey said:

He's one funny motherfucker. He's a comedian. Starred a few b-movies back in the day, and hosts Politically Incorrect.

Also, a great stand up comedia.

Has left-leaning views, but is more or less a practical purpose.

One of my favorite things he's ever said was on the Chris Rock show about Democrats: "Democrats are a political party being served by only slightly less scary special interests than the Republicans."

OMG is Bill Maher a person?????

Shut up my hair dressers husbands name is Bill Maher!!!

I wish I knew, I coulda totally made fun of him all this time!!!

I love Bill Maher. I agree with him on most subjects. His HBO show is INCREDIBLE! Is the costume a little tacky? Yes. Is it funny? No.

I couldn't even tell what the hell it was supposed to be. Shit looked like some kind of medieval tampon coming out of his chest.

is that a stingray??


that shit is spot on funny

amen sister.

purplerein said:

i figured you might disagree...

CarrieLee said:

People were dressing as Sigfreid & Roy? LOL, I know it's mean and all but thats damn funny

The Bill Maher outfit though, is kinda mean, especially since he really did die and left a kid behind.

Tom said:

Yeah when dude got attacked I saw about 10 costumes of guys with a tiger attached to their necks and blood everywhere. People jump on that shit all the time.

I don't like Bill Maher as a comedian. He is just not funny to me. I think it is in his delivery. His timing is all off to me and he comes off as full of himself (at least IMHO).

His HBO show is interesting, but not because of his comedy.

sure it's distasteful, but it's funny to me. And yes, I'd be upset if it was my father that died, but it wasn't, so it's funny to me. Judge if you want.

Again I ask, his face supposed to look like that, or is he just coked up or something....

VinnyM27 said:

i'd say its pretty accurate to the crocadile hunters.

although bill is just an ugly mug

SpisaRibb said:

He's all fucking red...maybe he is just wasted....is that wig supposed to look like the crocodile hunter, too?

Ace said:

!!!!

CarrieLee said:

Uhmmmm
All this time I thought; what are they on about. I just realised that is not a knife.

Indeed distasteful.

Ace said:

Norm MacDonald makes me laugh more and harder than any other comic.
