First, we can add Bill Maher to the growing number of liberals who are not happy with Obama’s handling of the BP oil spill. Maher however, decide to express his unhappiness by letting fly some racial stereotyping. This is how Maher thinks a black president should handle BP.
HBO's Bill Maher: "I thought when we elected a black president, we were going to get a black president. You know, this [BP oil spill] is where I want a real black president. I want him in a meeting with the BP CEOs, you know, where he lifts up his shirt where you can see the gun in his pants. That's -- (in black man voice) 'we've got a motherfu**ing problem here?' Shoot somebody in the foot."
Oh, so all black men are supposed to go around with guns in their pants threatening to cap people in the ass, is that it?
Chalk this up as more of that white liberal racism that the so-called "leaders of the black community" ignore or explain away with “nuance”. If a white conservative ever utter such a thing, these so-called "leaders" would be breaking out the torches and pitchforks. But since white liberal Bill Maher said it, all we will hear from them are crickets.

yet another Hollywood hypocrite perpetuating stereotypes they accuse Conservatives of holding.
he's such a scuz.
Bill Maher is a bitter, spiteful little pr*ck, and I wouldn't shed a tear if he fell into a wood chipper.
I know that's not very Christian to feel that way, but I can't help it.
The first joke was funny ("I've been briefed on your pain."). But Bill Maher has never been a guy to stop before things get tasteless, so he just had to continue with the whopper.
And you're absolutely right, Clifton: it wouldn't be right for a conservative to say such a thing, because it isn't right to say such things, period. Maher is safe from worry from disapproval, though.
How many more examples of this crap from liberals do we need before people start calling them out on it?
I was hoping that you were going to comment on this. I had it Yesterday, but did not post it. Glad to see that you did:-)
Yes, def a double standard when it comes to Racism. The party of Racism can say or do anything with no harm, no foul, while they ook for anything to twist into an accusation of Racism when it comes from a Conservative.
The lame stream, teacher's assoc and Dem party go to great lengths to hide the historical facts behind their party's racist past and current traditions.
Maher is just so disgusting. I think he must suffer from a brain disorder which causes inhibition. He just can't seem to stop himself from saying outrageous and offensive nonsense.
BTW, some of the most racist people I've ever met are also very liberal.

For as long as we keep acting like the problem is only coming from one side, you'll continue to see it from both. Let's stop putting blinders on and justifying our "side's" actions, let's call it what it is. The right does it, the left does it, all that's left to do is to let both of them know that we won't watch it go on any longer.
Wow this is stunning...
Real wonderful... what a great job...
To be completely honest, I was more insulted by the insinuation that GWB was a racist than by what the post topic was about.
I do agree about the double standard thing- but this is comedy and satire. I say that just about anything should be allowed in that area.
What this does show, going back to the double-standard thing, is that the media will skewer someone if they are on the wrong side of the political fence, and provide defense for someone if they agree with their general political views.
Bill is a bitter atheist whose personal and limited knowledge of everything clouds him from speaking like a man with a brain.
He mocks at Obama because everyone else already did, he'll only look more like a kiss ass if he doesn't say something.
I remember watching him before the 2008 election and his fear and unconditional love of Obama, a man he hardly knew, was beyond that of a fanatical zealot.

for BM in particular, talk of "double standard", "hypocrisy", "liberals is as liberals does", etc. are just too gentle to convey his utterly revolting track record of political and cultural devolution... BM is nothing less than an abject disgrace. I feel sorry for his mom.
