Liberal Hypocrisy.....
So, Bill Maher is truly shocked at how Bill O'Reilly treated President Obama. Always interrupting, not treating him very respectfully and so on. Well, from what I saw in the interview, President Obama continued to give the same old tired responses that he has given on numerous other interviews. Bill O'Reilly doesn't do that. He pushes harder than the "soft" Libral shows and interviewers. He's not going to let Obama get away with those response and he is going to challenge him on it. And you know, interrupting is a two way street. I have heard countless Libs talk about how O'Reilly interrupted Obama, but nothing from them about how Obama tried to speak over O'Reilly. "But he's the President!" is the excuse I most often hear. My response, SO WHAT. Other Libs have said "well, I wanted to know his answer". Have you NOT ever watched the news? You Libs watch the Liberal network news and CNN and all the other Liberal cable news all the time, and you've never heard his answer to that specific question? Really? Please! Use your brain for something other than hair fertilizer.
The most shocking thing, though is that Maher thought that Obama was treated disrespectfully, and he'd "never seen a president treated with such disrespect." Really? Ok, let's review that.
In a Column on Salone.com on 9/8/06, Bill Maher referred to President Bush as having an extra chromosome. In the same article, he also states that President Bush is incoherent. Ok, not as disrespectful as he claims O'Reilly was to President Obama, but, it's not exactly flattering to say President Bush had an extra chromosome either.
How about Senator Harry Reid, in speaking to Elementary School Kids, calling President Bush as "dumb" and "stupid"? Disrespectful? Yes. And the commotion from the Left? You heard nothing but crickets. Seriously.
How about Dan Rather going forth with a news story about President Bush having gotten out of the Texas National Guard? Now, Dan Rather, being an experienced newsman, you can't tell me he doesn't know what he's doing. So, he put a story that was ultimately proven to be a fabrication, on the air and spoke about it as though it was fact. Ok, so he claims he made a mistake. Fine. Then, that would simply indicate, you're incompetant. I can go with that. It would actually make sense to me. Don't tell me you didn't know it was false. You've had how many decades as a newsman, and you put THAT stoy on the air being fooled into believing it was legit? Please!
How about all the times that Libs inferred that Bush was a Nazi, and Hitler, and a blood sucking vampire? This was all quite evident in San Francisco, Nancy Pelosi's district oddly enough. And did she denounce it? No.
How about Paul McCarthy, who should really stop singing by the way, when he talked about President Obama stating "finally we have a president that knows what a book is." Actually, President Bush was quite literate and constantly read.
So, there has been disrespect before Bill. You choose not to see it. The difference between O'Reilly and my examples are that my examples are not all newsmen. Irregardless of that though, the disrespect that Maher complains occured with President Obama, did, in fact, happen with President Bush. Comedian or not, there was disrespect. Stating that someone has an extra chromosome is not funny. I challenge Bill Maher to test that joke in front of folks who find themselves in that position and lets see if they think it's funny.
Truth be told, Bill Maher is a man trying to find his meaning. He is fading into obscurity as we speak. Sure, he has a good following on his show on HBO, and he had some success with his movie Religiosity, in which he mocked religion. This is a guy who does what he can, for attention. He is desparately seeking relavency in a world in which is kingdom is limited to HBO. Has he criticized President Obama? Yes. Why? Because he wasn't to the Left enough. That's the kind of thing that gets him attention. Attention he desparatly seeks. "Look at me, look at me! I still matter." Actually Bill, no you don't.
