http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x26e6mv_not-a-real-problem-to-america_news <-- videoJust a few months ago, polls show Americans were sick of war. They had enough. They were anxious to stay out of the Middle East. Then they saw two beheadings and overnight they were like, oh war, we cant stay mad at you.
. . .
Monsanto who we recently learned puts an ingredient in RoundUp, their ubiquitous crop spray, called Polyethoxylated tallow amine that is far more toxic than anyone realized. Folks, ISIS isn't going to kill you. Things like Polyethoxylated tallow amine, that's what's going to kill you. But try selling that idea to the United States of Pantshitters.
. . .
I'm not saying that there aren't people out there who want us dead, I'm just saying there are much more likely killers right here. But for us, it's only real when it on a video that Anderson Cooper warns us not to watch and then shows it ten thousand times.
. . .
But you know what, climate change doesnt stand a chance because you cannot capture rising sea levels on a six-second Vine video. What we need to do is to get a polar bear to punch someone in an elevator.

(46,301 posts)1. Bill Maher is a total asshole.
He's anti-vaccinations, anti-science, and a demagogue.

...a lot more good than harm, regarding the Media, right-wingers, race plus bringing some fairly knowledgeable people on his show.
Sometimes we like people in spite of their faults.

...he NAILED it, and often does. Nevermind the times he's an asshole and pisses me off. When he's right, he's right.

Than you are to be killed by Isis.
