Did you get that million I sent you?

I'd take the Rovian route and just talk him up and declare him the winner regardless.

I really don't get this attitude. It's like he gave him the million for a right to complain and nothing else! (If he did - he might be joking).

oh wait a minute...why do i care what he thinks?

eww

Probably.

. . . and I think this is base, disrespectful, and just gross. The last thing I'd call it is 'humor.' I guess, if I was 9 years-old . . .

But the condescension is fun.

"Maybe old fogies who forgot their ex-lax don't think it's funny"

little nine-year-old Billy Maher made the millions of which he gave one million to Obama, because people think he's funny. You don't think so. Fine. But not only that, you want to crab at people for it. You live in a world of juveniles, it would appear. It's your nightmare come true, perhaps.

Like...totally so, whatever, Aunt Muriel...shaaa...ghaaa!

sort of like Maher, himself

And all of you out there...yes! You! Stop looking at all of our posts! Stop it I say.

. . . just realize and understand that Maher isn't entitled to a laugh, just because he poops from his mouth.

If you don't laugh, you don't laugh, or even become amused. And in the second, I said you wanna crab on it.

And now it's with the poop, already?

See? We're dragging you down into the terlet with us!

"Poops from his mouth" was funny. it was even in a whole South Park episode.

I like you bigtree, always have, and don't mean disrespect to you. You just have more taste and a higher level of comportment. And I do appreciate that.

And as we all know, what I like is all that truly matters here on the DU.

Bush a CHIMP? (He was, but that's not my point.)

Da8n, some people need to be force-fed the last 30 years of MAD magazine.

. . . occasionally comical, maybe.

He's not as much of an advocate, as he is an opinionist. That wouldn't be so bad, if he wasn't making a money-making career out of it, and, pretending that his tired, opportunistic, normally insulting dialog is 'humor' -- just to attract enough of an audience to keep him in the spotlight is just pathetic

I think Bill is smart and funny. Like John Stewart, he's a comedian.

Like any comedian, they miss (Bill's monologue writers in particular can whiff)

But I'm not going to get all offended when they take a (sometimes deserved sometimes not) dig at my side. Sense of humor is one of the things 'our' side is way better at!

Bill's best line last night was to Luntz: "see, that's the difference between rich conservatives and rich liberals - I'm willing to vote against my own best interest for the good of the COUNTRY"

boom

train wreck

Many are just outraged when the humor is about their guy. That's what you're seeing.

...I guess Maher (and quite a few DUers) missed the part where the viewers got to watch Romney lie about everything and repudiate all of his previous positions backed by the GOP right-wing/Tea Nazis.

Maher needs to grow a pair and keep the off-color personal comments about the Obamas to himself.

Comedian indeed.

Now Jon Stewart was funny.

All over my nice beige carpet, oh you just wait until your father gets home.

I think Obama himself would get a good laugh out of that remark.

Bet he is. Bet he's baked as a buttered cod.

A million dollars and he's gonna bogart the wad's worth.

Damn him. Damn it.

to make that comment.

The blindness of people here who don't understand that people expect someone to fight when they have made a significant commitment to that person - seriously, it's shit like this that keeps bringing me back to being angry about that weak ass bullshit performance from the debate.

I'm ready to move on, but only if people will accept reality and accept that there's work to be done.

This constant pretend spin that almost no one outside DU agrees with makes this like a cyber branch of a lunatic asylum.

It's not helping to keep trying for a re-do on reality.

We're better off dealing with the fact that our man read as "above it all" and their lying asshole came across as more energetic and wanting it more.

They criticized WHAT he said.

And they have every right to do so.

me? I appreciated his million dollars, and we sure as shit need it to combat the unlimited funds of the other side.

And Ikonoclast makes a good point as well.

So you're both good at this.

I suck. "What did the weiner say to the doody?"

See?

Obama by a landslide! Even the dumbest of the Right see through Romney.

Maher is a supporter of Obama. I think this is funny and expect some more funny jokes before the elections. Like poster above, I think Obama would find it funny too.

I'm probably one of President Obama's most ardent defenders on this board. But cmon. Lighten the fuck up.

I thought Democrats, even the centrist ones, still had a sense of humor and could laugh at their political selves.

Now humor is too far left?

So tired of hearing how and why Obama sucked in the debate. Yes he did.

But why are we crying over spilt milk? Let's move FORWARD.

.... ummm... I'm not allowed to say, took an oath and all...

Love in your heart and evil on your lips.

It's almost like a pleasure/pain thing...

Indubitably!

the quote is hilarious and points out humorously what most realists understand - the president was awful Wednesday
