Thank you Bill Maher for making that slime ball...

Bill Kristol look extremely uncomfortable last night... The Fact is that the Fucking MSM has not challenged any of the slime ball neocons who drove us into the war with the obvious unanswered
questions..

Do you feel that the elimination of a dictator whom the U.S.felt was a threat to the world with nuclear weapons ( proven untrue) was worth the casualties listed below?

Again, the fact that there has been practically no mention or questions asked of these horrors by our MSM in of itself, just adds to our Country’s shame and crimes!!!

The one I remember was his reply to Pubbies who don't want to raise the minimum wage. "That's fine. What we'll do is leave the minimum wage where it is, and then create a MAXIMUM WAGE, just to even things out a bit." I could hear the Richie riches of the world exploding now!

Kristol then starts talking about all the wars he has supported and gets laughed out of the room. A highlight.

I am sometimes critical of Maher having so many conservatives on his show but I'm eating my words after last nights show.

Not only did he ask about any war Kristol hasn't loved, he also asked Kristol if he has ever been right about anything. Pointing out all the horribly wrong predictions Kristol has made over the year.

Worth watching a few times.

than anyone else on the show. It never seems like their BS is challenged nearly as much and as forcefully as it ought to be. But, if it's as good as it sounds, maybe I'll check out this episode.

sectarian violence will not be a big problem in Iraq if American starts a war there.

I don't think he is stupid but he knows the line that he has to push and if the facts
aren't in line to what he is selling then that is no problem to him.

who picked Sarah Palin as McCain's running mate. And we're grateful for that. Look at all the entertaining moments she provides.

in pointless, wasteful wars of the kind he's spent his entire punditry career championing.

If there's a hell, Bill Kristol will spend eternity having body parts torn off by shrapnel over and over and over again!
