I watched it and thought that Bill did a great job of ripping him a new ass hole. I do not know about you but by having somebody on your show does not give them credibility, it can expose them as the fake that they are.

Yeah. That's probably it.

JFK held that civil rights would pass because of assholes like him being out in the public so much.

... when I could watch and enjoy the fun.

Those days are gone. People like Reed have poisoned this country. I can't even look at a picture of those people, let alone listen to them.

This country is more fucked up than I've ever seen it... and I'm 70.

I want people younger than me to fight the good fight, but did you see the thread about how dumb America is now?

look at this

This week, Gallup released a poll showing 42 percent of Americans still believe God created human beings in their present form less than 10,000 years ago. Last week, the Carsey Institute at the University of New Hampshire published a study showing only 28 percent of Tea Party Republicans trust scientists.

It gets worse. More than two-thirds of Americans, according to surveys conducted for the National Science Foundation, are unable to identify DNA as the key to heredity. Nine out of 10 don’t understand radiation and what it can do the human body, while one in five adult Americans believe the sun revolves around the earth.

and have! First, you buy the pols. Next, you buy the media. With that, you can buy anything! Schools! Prisons! Human spirits! Anything! AND--now here's the best part--if you're a billionaire, you can even get RICHER in the process of doing all this shit!

Only in America...

The numbers are all over the place. 42% of Americans believe in Creationism yet the number of people who believe in Evolution has doubled since 1999? In the same poll? And frankly I can't find 5 people that believe the Sun revolves around the earth. Let alone 1 in 5.

If you download the actual survey methodology it shows you the questions they asked, the possible answers and the replies. Now ignoring the fact that the Q&A basically make this a push poll, if you read the actual results, not the graphs they created, you will see that the number of people who believe in Creationism is actually dropping at a rapid rate.

Americans aren't as stupid as we think. It's just that the stupid ones are the loudest.

It's hbo, naughty words, etc. I wonder if Reed brought a bar of soap for Maher to suck on after f-bombs?

The guy is as phoney as a three dollar bill. That includes his phoney "Christianity." He'll also go anywhere for the attention, even to Maher's show. Part of me hates that Bill lets crooks like Reed and his ilk on the show. But, he does us all a favor in having them there. It reminds us that these dirtbags are still around so we don't forget just how awful they are, and that they're still not in prison where they belong. Rather, they're back at at it, and people need to stay vigilant in trying to fight them.

But Reed implies that social security and medicare are responsible for this deficit.

See where his mind is at? He is a mainstream lying Republican that could care less about the welfare of human beings unless they are affiliated with Halliburton or KB&R. The goal is to get FICA contributions into the hands of Wall Street investors (criminal) so they can double and triple game the system. See, there is nothing holy about Reed. He is a modern day snake oil salesman.

As for what Maher's more socially conservative guests typically have in store, at best he approaches them as a devil's advocate. At worst, for them anyway, he has an ability to strip them naked of any self-righteous pretense or decency, and they often walk off not knowing what hit them. I wish there had been more time to cover a range of other topics. For example, Reed's long-standing apologetic stance on applying tried-and-untrue trickle down economics as a means to combat poverty, in direct contrast to what Christ instructed his followers to do. Ralph Reed is possibly the best (or worst) example of someone using religion and social wedge issues to drive an economic agenda.

It also reminds Mahers audience that filthbags like Reed haven't gone away. People need to be reminded that they are still out there doing the these that caused us to despise them in the first place.

Professes to speak for god.
God may have a surprise for this sanctimonious dipshit.

Ralph Reed is an utter fraud in every way, shape, and form. Maher let in him skate.

does what may be a bigger one.
-
too bad no one actively covers the USA political scams much/enough

... to make a difference in this world.

You should try it, VERY VERY SOON.

... unsurprised.

If you just want to be arrogant, then dont respond to me and dont communicate with me, i dont have time for that

... and then have the audacity to call me "arrogant?" Don't like Maher's guest line up? Don't freakin' watch the show.

I don't "have time" for hypocrisy. Don't want to hear from me? Then put me on ignore. I'll speak my mind when and how I please.

Indeed, I will NEVER speak to you again, GREAT idea

I STILL have NO idea what you are saying, first you say I should get away from the echo chamber then you defend the echo chamber

my god

we have NO chance of fixing this country with this kind of SHIT

attack me for no god damn reason at all, yeah, that will fix the problems

... interpret any damn way you please.


You will anyway.

that he does not deserve. He can act all holier than thou, as he always does. He is a genuine right wing criminal POS.

wormy words slipping through the slim lips of a viper.

He has those same shifty eyes that Geithner has.

Maher did well. And his show is always interesting to me.

Maher completely destroyed Ralph Reeds arguments about traditional family. It was pretty stunning.

hypocrite he is.

Once they got to the "literal interpretation of the bible" Maher beat him senseless, Reed was left stammering about the "New Testament".

I watch Maher weekly. Sometimes he's great and sometimes he's an ass. But he is never better then when he's going after religion.
