Even a Blind Chipmunk…
Bill Maher
…Finds the Occasional Acorn.
Bill Maher, the political commentator on his eponymous HBO show, is usually spewing rewarmed Daily Kos Kiddie talking points delivered by a smug asshole. At least that’s how he comes across to me. He will say what’s on his mind, so I’ll give him that. As the title implies, he can’t be wrong all the time. So there’s this:
Maher: ‘We Should Blame China’ for Coronavirus, ‘Not Racist’ to Say Eating Bats Is ‘Crazy’
By IAN HANCHETT
On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, host Bill Maher stated that China should be blamed for the coronavirus and criticized those who claim that calling the virus the Chinese virus is racist.
Maher began by listing examples of diseases that are named after where they were discovered before wondering, “So why should China get a pass?”
He added, “Seriously, it scares me that there are people out there who would rather die from the virus than call it by the wrong name. This isn’t about vilifying a culture. This is about facts. This is about life and death. We’re barely four months into this pandemic, and the wet markets in China, the ones where exotic animals are sold and consumed, are already starting to reopen. The PC police say it’s racist to attack any cultural practice that’s different than our own. I say liberalism lost its way when it started thinking like that. … It’s not racist to point out that eating bats is batshit crazy.”

Jumping Jehosaphats, a shit bird liberal POS calling a spade a spade and not blaming the POTUS. Amazing.
Spade? That’s racist!
You folks on this site don’t watch Bill Maher’s show very frequently (if at all), do you? Sure, he doesn’t like Trump, but that’s in line with the opinions of more than half the American population. But he does not shy away from criticizing Islam, or Muslims in general, and has frequently derided Liberals for their extreme Political Correctness, especially regarding Islam. He’s been called “Islamophobic” by many Of the more Liberal news outlets, Britain’s “The Guardian” newspaper especially. And, as the article above cites, he has not been fond of the current regime in China either, and is not shy about saying so.
Well, I saw a clip from several months ago where he said he was hoping we would have a recession, cuz that would likely stop Trump from being re-elected.
You are correct, I do not watch him at all. I used to watch his show, until the nausea overcame me. Most important, he is not funny. I will put up with just about anything if it makes me laugh. On top of that his smug, oleaginous arrogance overstimulated my gag reflex. I also didn’t care for most of the guests he had on. He reminds me of Dick Cavett, another pretentious intellectual wannabe.
Who is Dick Cavett? *wink*
“oleaginous”
Had to look that one up. It fits. Almost like it was designed for him.
Apparently you’re not old enough to remember why he got shitcanned from ABC.
Sparky,
I’m old enough to have watched his show, but did not know he was cancelled. What was the reason?
Wait … Cavett or Maher? Oh … google says Maher.
Sorry — should’ve researched Maher before responding.

“We have been the cowards. Lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away, that’s cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building, say what you want about it, not cowardly.”
The little rat-bastard is the sole reason I cancelled HBO from my DirectTV device.
Keep in mind he made that comment within a week of 9/11.
Well, I would agree that “staying in the plane” was not cowardly. Were kamikaze pilots cowardly? “Cowardly” seems to have become a one-size-fits-all insult used against anyone that is disliked by the accuser. I’ve said it before (and caught heck for it) and I will continue to say it.
I truly do not care for Bill Maher but, sometimes, he will hit the nail on the head and leave out the political correctness. On this he did.
Every time I hear some fuckwit tells me, “OH, the Chinese have been doing this of using that for thousands of years. It must be great and it’s natural!”, I think what an absolute moron.
The only reason the Chinese have not killed themselves off by their eating and health habits is that their birth rate soared above the death rate for centuries.
Like many Asian cultures, they will eat every fucking thing they can catch…ANYWHERE. As cosmopolitan and modern as they want the world to believe they are, they still cling to the screwed up notions that consuming a particular animal will infuse one with their attributes. Much like Native Americans who believed eating deer gave you speed, eating bear gave you strength and power. When all they really did, was fill their fucking bellies.
But the Chinese and other Asian cultures take it to the nth degree. It is hard to believe they think a tiger’s penis will make them virile but, they do. Never let science get in the way of your eating habits you dumbasses.
Wet markets with bats, wolves, and everything else that swim crawl run walk or flies is testimony to a couple of things.
One, the absolute backward mental processes in the populace and two, their government’s complete absence in providing education to the masses. This is a government that disappears folks at the wave of a hand, controls their lives completely, yet will not close wet markets and other places that promote the rampant and fertile ground for such viruses to cross into the human population.
YMMV
I forgot…fuck the PRC!
Testify! My mileage doesn’t vary from yours Sparks.
The effing Chinese Communist Government started this crap, they own it, and they should take full responsibility. And I still say they were aided and abetted by the domestic enemies of this country. Remember the little me me cartoon showing Hitlery on the phone to Xi saying, “Impeachment didn’t work, release the virus.”? Connect the dots between her, Gates, Soros, Mitts, and the others that have their hands in the Communist Chinese Cookie jar.
Yes, Lars, Chicoms.
How ’bout this Trump ad about Biden (and China)?
They believe that powdered Rhino Horn has some magic attributes as well as Pangolin scales which has heavily contributed to the near extinction of that animal!
CHINA SUCKS!
Folk too willingly backassward to just get Viagra now.
My first trip to Taiwan, it seemed every dinner had something “good for you, for your…” After two weeks I asked how they ever got it up without all the weird foods?
I’ve been thinking the virus should be called “Fic-Piv”. Fic-Piv is the pronunciation for the acronym FCCPV, which stands for F&cking Chinese Communist Party Virus.
