Bill Maher: Rick Perry 'So Dumb' Republicans Are 'Even Considering Voting for a Black Guy'
BILL MAHER: Now I know they hate it when I say it, but the word for Republicans these days is promiscuous. First they fell in love with Trump because they remembered him from back in the '80s when they were young and happy and their penises worked. But the Donald turned out be a lot like his hair: ridiculous, difficult to control, and not very believable.

And she had some skeletons in her closet like her husband. So then they dropped her and convinced Rick Perry to run. Oh, yes, finally the conservative they were all looking for, but then something horrible happened: Rick started talking, and he sounded so dumb that now they're even considering voting for a black guy.

This was not the first time Maher used race to go after Cain.

In May he said, "Republicans say they love him so they're not racist - right"

The following month, Maher said of Newt Gingrich, "Let me put your unpopularity in context for you - you're a Republican and you're polling behind a black guy"

Maher sure seems fixated on the color of Cain's skin, doesn't he?

It seems to me that leftists generally seem overly concerned about skin color...




Hillwilliam -> RE: Maher a racist? (10/1/2011 8:45:23 AM)

I think Cain is the best one of the bunch.

He has his shortcomings but hell, everyone does. The problem is that he hasn't yet, that I know of, sold his soul to the religious right so he won't get the nomination.

Yeah, I've pretty much decided that Cain is my candidate.

It's got nothing to do with him being from Atlanta. Or being black.  Those are both just cool icing on the cake.

Of course Maher is a racist. Or, at the very least, a bigot.

His color doesnt mean anything to me, but I do like his 999 plan.

This seems to be a joke where Mr. Maher mocks both Mr. Perry and the alleged racism of the Republicans.
I do not see how this would apply to any alleged racism of Mr. Maher.
I do not know any of the people involved, I am just evaluating the sentence.

Best regards.

I wouldn't go so far as to say I "like" it.  I think it's acceptable and realistic for the moment, though.

Agreed.

However, some people believe that they are more pure and holier than others.  Maher is one such.

He stole that idea from a Dominoes campaign. The guy hasn't a clue.

He has connection with some of the very institutions that have fucked this country over. One being the Fed of which he says we don't need to audit because he doesn't think anything will come out of it.

He supported TARP.

He wins 2 polls..One in his home state and another in Florida where they moved the times up to keep 1500 from voting. More bogus crooked tricks from Florida as is the moving up of the deadlines.

You really want to support large medias force fed candidates?

More power to you bud.

Cain seems a nice enough fellow, my concern with a pure "busness" person (i.e., having no experience in politics) would be that Government/Politics are not run like a business.  Yes, Cain has some great business "turnaround" successes to his name, but coming in as a CEO and given COMPLETE CONTROL to institute any and all changes that you want to make within a company/corporation is NOT how the Government/Politics works -- the President simply does not have that type of power/control. 

Certainly there are many respects where Government can be run like a business -- and I think it should -- but I'm just not so sure a "pure business" person will be able to have the same impact in politics?!!  Thus, my concern with Cain would be effectiveness.  Granted, one could always argue that he (or any other candidate, for that matter) would be smart enough to surround themselves with advisors to help navigate the "political" waters, but that in itself would require a "learning curve" of sorts.  Obviously FAR too early to tell who'll be the candidate in 2012, but near anybody would be better than the current failure occupying the Oval Office -- regardless of the letter behind their name.

Exactly.

He's made some nasty connections that I pointed out earlier as well with the exact people you DON'T want.

As usual people don't have their thinking caps on and are going with ..I like the guy.. He has a good personality, good hair, makes my gina tingle and the various other bullshit reasons to pick someone to run a country.


I like the guy too but I don't trust his history nor his ability to run this country.





Lucylastic -> RE: Maher a racist? (10/1/2011 11:31:08 AM)

FR I like Cain as a "person" in as much as media has fed me his personality
WIll he win...nope
is Maher a bigot, as much as any other comedian is
Funny how we didnt hear about the "brainwashing of blacks" comments on this board so I think its got little to do with actual racism and more bigotism of the "left" because if limbaugh had said it, the shoe would be on the other foot and not complaining, and in fact would be backing him to the hilt.
Maher is an asshole, he is a comedian asshole, he is radical to a large number of people left and right.




NakisisaX -> RE: Maher a racist? (10/1/2011 11:31:30 AM)

much better for him to show it to where i can see it and deal with it, than to hide it and make me stupid and vulnerable.




Icarys -> RE: Maher a racist? (10/1/2011 11:34:04 AM)

Oh and yes Maher is a friggin racist. I'd like to strangle that bitch.

I would have to agree with that. It doesn't show that he's racist, it shows that he's a bigot.

Not very good either... would love to have someone in there that's had a foot in both the public and private arenas.  Romney has, but I'm not sold on him. 






willbeurdaddy -> RE: Maher a racist? (10/1/2011 12:25:33 PM)

Any tax plan that discontinues preferences for home ownership (for those that can afford to maintain/improve their property) is a potential disaster. Its a bit of social engineering that has become a pillar of the economy and removing it, especially when the housing market is still in correction, will ensure continuation of the recession.
