Maher is nothing more than a very low IQ elitist who is NOT a comedian.

I do think some of the things he says are amusing, I will give him that. (although when he knocks Trump, he gets my hackles raised). However, if he were the only man on earth I would take a vow of chastity. He is so gross. My description of him: "Separated at birth: Bill Maher and Hugh Hefner" and the similarity was astounding. Hugh was mega gross to me in every way imaginable. Maher is not an elitist unless he thinks he is. He is just another hack rebuking traditional America. Boo.

While I wouldn't enjoy having dinner with Maher either, he has said quite a few sensible things that go against the Leftist mainstream: about the idiocies of transgenderism, about the failures of the CDC, and about the 'whiteness' phobia, about carrying on as if racism in America is at an all-time high and we haven't made any progress there, which he has called "Progressophobia".

So called black victimhood was making a good change until Obama came in office. He set race relations back to pre-1960. The Geo Floyd debacle was the most disgusting thing I've seen in my entire life. The man was a criminal, didn't obey the police orders, was full of drugs/narcotics and died as a result. There is an autopsy to prove it. A white man sits in jail for doing his job. Clearly his knee was on his shoulder. The Floyd family got millions, he had gold casket, was treated as a martyr, etc. etc.,and it is just all abominable to me. You all know the rest of that story.

Personal note... My oldest daughter tends to be intellectual because I allowed unlimited questions with both of my daughters on discussing God Church theology politics etc. Even though she has many strong friendships with evangelicals partly because of her deep involvement in homeschool basketball she sometimes frightens them cuz of her far-ranging ideas. She likes Bill because he can rationally and quietly discuss opposing views and I have enjoyed listening to him from time to time. On Bill's new book tour he stopped by my favorite late night host Greg gutfeld.

I've been a Maher fan on and off for a long time. I think he's actually honest. That is not to say he is sane; Maher is clearly a loony when it comes to The Orange Man and FJB, but I think he really believes what he says. I would love to handcuff him to a chair and force him to look at all the evidence - actually, calling it evidence is wrong; it is PROOF - of the grand theft that was the 2020 election and see if that kind of intervention would cure his TDS.

IF we can beat the cheat and get our boy where he deserves to be, the first order of business needs to be the destruction of the democratic party, root and branch.

As an aside, as reasonable as Bill Maher appears to be lately, he is just trying to move himself and his show closer to the political center so he has an audience left after the reckoning. But as far as I’m concerned, he, Stewart, Oliver, Colbert and that ever more detestable Jane Fonda, need to be put up against a wall.

After a short trial of course. These assholes have rights!

I'd begin with the Republican Party - we KNOW what the Dems are, but the congressional Republicans cannot be relied on when absolutely needed.

Bill Mahar’s new centrist approach is to hold on to as many independents as viewers as possible. He helps to confirm their growing concerns of things spinning out of control but keeps them rooted to democrats.

Frankly, it is better marketing than what the DNC has been using.

I try hard to extend kindness and compassion to those who deserve it, not to those who want to tear out the beating hearts of all Trump supporters like the Aztecs did during their sacrifices. I guess I have to work on those Bible teachings on forgiveness. It isn't in my Scottish blood.

A quick perusal of the links on CFP this morning and I come across (1) the interview of Anderson Cooper and Bill Mahar complaining lawfare hasn't worked well enough, (2) some BS ad from Martin Sheen claiming Republicans have introduced over 100 bills to destroy and control future elections that destroy "democracy", and (3) an interview with Jim Comey saying Trump will totally destroy and rebuild a corrupt FBI and DOJ if elected. The depth and breadth of the putrid, vile, evil corruption in our government and their media allies is overwhelming and very close to ending America's reign at any cost. They're just pissed they didn't start earlier on the lawfare.

While I get re-energized at the small victories we get, I have no kindness or compassion bones in me to try to live in a civil manner with these people. Civility against the satanic is exactly what the satanic want. The Democrats - whatever they have become - are a cancer. We either totally remove every cell of it or it will return and kill us all. By every cell, I mean every person in government or Hollywood or media who has promoted the cancer of the democrat strategy. Nobody gets a mea culpa.

Trump's four years will only be a small start on this large undertaking. The VP choice will be the one to do the heavy lifting if they can continue the 12-year run that starts with Trump in 2024. The VP choice may be the MOST important decision Trump will make for his next term.

I agree - VP has to be smart and tough, not just a vote magnet. So I’ll be disappointed if Scott is the choice. Nice guy, not smart enough to have confidence in when he’s being sold something or scammed by the bureaucracy.

If they asked me - and there was no residency conflict - I would pick Rubio. I don’t think DeS is smart enough (he chooses wisely and keeps working to goals) and V, although very smart, has the attention span of a gnat. Lots of ideas, hard to keep him focused. Rubio has a lot of raw brain power and I think now understands the stakes. His family history of Cuban dictatorship helps. But he’s very smart. And pretty likable.

When DJT was President, the world appeared at least “tamed”. All the malign actors in the world were, for the moment, subjugated. Even the glimmers of a peaceful Middle East for the first time perhaps ever seemed possible. There truly was peace and prosperity, and hope for a brighter future.

Because these things ARE POSSIBLE.

During that time, however, his enemies, here in his own country, were working continuously to thwart all his efforts at every turn. Because evil never rests until it is thoroughly subdued.

Eventually, and through acts of sheer chicanery, they managed to seize power from him, and rushed headlong into destroying, not just all of his accomplishments, but far further, in a concerted effort to trample every principle, value and virtue this country has ever stood for. And it was a worldwide effort, aided and abetted by nearly every western power, now all aligned to change the entire world into some crazed new alien and inhuman entity.

So, here we a find ourselves, just four short years later, our country barely recognizable, and the world in flames.

Let’s say there's about a third of the world’s population that is all in on this effort at mass destruction, one third who are vociferously opposed, and about a third either sitting on the fence or with their head buried in the sand.

It is that last third, the fence sitters, the fearful, the ignorant, and the indifferent who will be held most responsible for the downfall of this country. It is they who need to be called out, and held to account.

The evil doers will pursue their evil, the good will fight the good fight, but those who sit on the sidelines and convince themselves they have no dog in this fight could not be more wrong. They will determine which way the pendulum swings, and they must be made aware that their very life and the life of their children and grandchildren depend upon the choice they make, a choice they must make before their very ability to even choose is stripped from them.

Nope -don’t feel kind when someone wants to destroy civilization. Don't feel like being gracious. Best I can do is avoid encountering those (formerly friends) who can not behave. That includes not supporting activities, organization and businesses that promote evil behaviour by others.

Radicals of all stripes aren’t interested in learning from experience: they are driven by the drive for power over others. If one experience or tactic is unsuccessful they will try another but the objective is the same - defeat those supporting civilization.

So - nope, no kindness.

I haven't been fonda Jane since she was posing with my enemies while we were in Vietnam.

"Racial integration is praised but only in one direction." The curious thing about this is that many white people seem to think this is a good idea. May I humbly suggest a counterpoint or two? Rhodesia.

South Africa.

And let us not forget some historical examples of how white people fare when blacks take over, like Haiti.

This is the result when "racial integration" is forcibly imposed; it never stops with mere integration. It illustrates the pendulum principle, which decrees that the swing will never stop in the middle, but will continue until it reaches nearly the opposite side. Or, as I always like to point out, the slave never wishes mere equality with the master; he wishes to be the master.

It was not enough for the do-gooders on the Supreme Court to simply declare all invidious discrimination based on race to be unconstitutional. No, they had to declare that its opposite, i.e., "affirmative action" was acceptable, legal and even preferable. So here we are, living in a land where race is declared not to exist, yet it is the most salient factor in social and career advancement; where discriminating against someone on the basis of race is declared illegal, unless it is blacks discriminating against whites; where white celebrities who live in gated, exclusively white communities and whose children attend private schools where they never encounter a typical black or hispanic student get to harangue the rest of us on the evils of racial discrimination; where black millionaires get to lecture the rest of us on how hard it is for a black to get ahead in racist America. Next time, please, let's pick our own cotton.

Expand full comment

Please excuse my vernacular, but you are pissing down a rathole. Haiti will never climb out of the black hole of neediness that it is. It features the worst combination of tyrannical, kleptocratic government (to the extent there is a "government") and a population that is remarkable only for its stupidity and ignorance. Its only parallell in the modern world is to be found in the "Palestinians." Benign neglect coupled with very tall and unbreachable fences is the only proper reaction to either, but I am afraid the opportunities for mutually beneficial graft exists to such an extent that things will never change until the inevitable collapse occurs. God help us.

Plus, Haiti has quite a dark religion, that makes it a treacherous place to engage with. I remember back at some point when we had US troops there for a short period (was it under Clinton??). There was a remarkable, unusual, number of suicides by US troops.

Many articles were written about it, speculating as to why. I believe it was a type of mental curse or attack (stemming from the Vodoun religion, also known as Voodoo) which is something that does occur and can impact one negatively if they are not spiritually alert and stably grounded in light.
