Bill Maher's Advice
To Dubya
4-18-6

"Mr. President, this job can't be fun for you anymore. There's no more money to spend--you used up all of that. You can't start another war because you used up the Army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people.

Listen to your mom. The cupboard's bare, the credit cards' maxed out. No one's speaking to you: Mission accomplished.

"Now it's time to do what you've always done best: lose interest and walk away. Like you did with your military service and the oil company and the baseball team. It's time. Time to move on and try the next fantasy job. How about cowboy or space man?

"Now I know what you're saying. There're so many other things that you as President could involve yourself in. Please don't. I know, I know. There's a lot left to do. There's a war with Venezuela. Eliminating the sales tax on yachts. Turning the space program over to the church. And Social Security to Fannie Mae. Giving embryos the vote.

"But, Sir, none of that is going to happen now. Why? Because you govern like Billy Joel drives. You've performed so poorly! I'm surprised that you haven't given yourself a medal. You're a catastrophe that walks like a man. Herbert Hoover was a shitty president, but even he never conceded an entire city to rising water and snakes.

"On your watch, we've lost almost all of our allies, the surplus, four airliners, two trade centers, a piece of the Pentagon and the City of New Orleans. Maybe you're just not lucky.

I'm not saying you don't love this country. I'm just wondering how much worse it could be if you were on the other side.

"So, yes, God does speak to you. What He is saying is, 'Take a hint.'"

I love Bill. I loved his show Politically Incorrect.

Why doesn't Bill Maher run for President?

Until he's elected as President, I guess he'll have to wait for his turn to run the country

Yeah, too bad lil ole w can't take a hint, a mack truck running over him may have some affect, but hints - definitely not.

Bill Maher's an idiot. Who try's to discuss intelligent issues with celebrities? Like they have anything intelligent to say.

Who would you suggest anyone discuss any issues with??

Secondly, what kind of idiots listen to Paul about seal hunting????

It goes both ways, so either its okay for him to talk to them, or it's not okay for bono to tell canadians what to do for africa....

Bill Maher is great.

He has big enough balls to actually say what many people are thinking, regardless of how 'correct' it may be. Like his comment after 9/11 that cost him his show. Difficult to swallow at the time, but 100% accurate.

I wish it was easier to see his stuff in Canada without a US dish...

Wow since when are one of us? Can I reserve a burger for you at the next 4th of July BBQ?

By "us", I am refering to everyone in the western hemisphere, seeing as your pal dubya has opened up the U.S. doors to 3,000,000+ illegal mexicans/yr. (not too mention your garden variety muslims, of course none of them are yer nasty teeourist types), I figure everyone in North Am can be lumped into the same boat. Anyway, thanks for the invite - I'll pass on the picnic, you can save a couple of burgers and heuvos rancheros for the wetbacks tho...

I have an American buddy who is thoroughly convinced that Dubya is a KGB agent sent to the States to destroy its sole-superpower status. I shit you not!

When I go to a concert, I go to be entertained, not to hear what this celebrity or that has to say on world affairs. Just shut the @#$! up and sing for me.
Rant over

Driving Rain you said it best.

I don't pay them to tell my what they think, only to entertain me.

Scary that I agree with you.

What's so scary, that both you and I were taught to think for ourselves? Just because at times we come to different conclusions on matters of world importance shouldn't scare you Nark.
Keep your head down over there buddy.

Should the fact that he's a celebrity prevent him from expressing his opinions? If you show up at a Bill Maher event and don't expect to hear his political opinions, then you're from a VERY shallow part of the gene pool.

If you don't like, don't go. Being able to choose is a great thing, isn't it?
