Bill Maher Mocks WWII Vets
This guy would have to duck to walk under a rattlesnake, but the hepcats think he's cool.
http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Hollywo...aher-WWII-vets
On Friday evening, enraged at World War II veterans who had the temerity to move aside President Obama’s barricades to visit the World War II Memorial, HBO’s Bill Maher launched into a broadside against the brave veterans, labeling them dumb.
"The other thing that apparently was so important for the Republicans to keep open was the World War II Memorial in Washington. That was closed, so a bunch of the World War II vets knocked down the barriers and stormed it,” Maher said, to the laughter of his audience.
“And then I loved this, they posed for pictures with Michele Bachmann who showed up. Michele Bachmann, one of the people most responsible for shutting the fucking thing down. They're the greatest generation - nobody said they were the brightest generation."
Of course, that was a lie – the House Republicans voted to restore funding for the National Park Service, but the Democratic Senate prevented a vote on that measure in order to heighten suffering surrounding the shutdown. In fact, the Obama administration reportedly rejected the World War II veterans’ request to visit the memorial before the vets moved aside the barricades. The administration then reinforced the barricades after the incident.
For Maher to slander World War II veterans as stupid for not kowtowing to despicable shutdown tactics is reprehensible. Before the war, they endured tremendous poverty during the Great Depression.After returning from World War II, veterans worked to establish the nation’s greatest companies in the private sector and infrastructure projects in the public sector; they were the driving force behind the growth of the planet’s best system of higher education.
World War II-generation men and women built America into the unchallenged hegemon on the planet. But then again, they didn’t have a show on HBO.

Plus, his ratings must be slipping. He needed to generate some "action".

I wouldn't call WW II vets defenseless.......A WW II vet in KY recently shot and killed an intruder in his home. The vet was unapologetic and all but sang "Another One Bites The Dust." The WW II vets who recently "stormed the barricades" did something that very few private citizens today would have the balls to do. Particularly in D.C.
Maher is not a fool, but a damn fool. He is half Jewish and has apparently never visited the Holocaust Museum. When you walk into the foyer you see the divisional flags of all of the U.S. Army divisions that liberated concentration camps at the war's end. The one Holocaust survivor that I knew growing up loved the U.S. Army and repeatedly told me that the greatest day of her life was the day Sherman tanks rolled up to the wire of her camp. Those tanks meant that she'd live. World War Two veterans clearly fought and defeated evil in its purest incarnation. Maher should have his ass kicked by a 90 year old vet.

I would have liked to have seen him interview Bob Howard on his show.
Maher should have called him a coward to his face.

I rarely take comedians seriously.
Freedom of Speech (and in this case, HBO) gives us everything from Band of Brothers to cheap shots from comedians. All in all, it works. The comedian gets forgotten and everyone is still buying the DVD sets of Band of Brothers. I think most of us get it right in that regard and most of us appreciate and honor the Greatest Generation for their hard work and sacrifice. Those who don't? Not worth my time or attention.

Now that would be the one time I would watch his show.
Isn't he the same guy who said 911 was our fault?

A week after September 11th 2001, Bill Maher sat down with his panel on ‘Politically Incorrect’ to discuss 9/11 but little did he know that his comments on this show would eventually get the show cancelled. During a debate about terrorists, Maher refused to call the terrorists cowards, Maher said the U.S was lobbing cruise missles from thousands of miles away and he thought that was more cowardly.
Maher’s comments sparked a huge controversy and soon advertisers began to pull out, in the show’s final months it struggled to find support but was eventually canned. In retrospect, I’m not sure Maher was looking at all sides of the issues. It takes balls to fly a plane into a building, but killing innocent people? Sorry, I can’t find a way to call that brave. There’s no doubt that America should not be lobbing cruise missiles from thousands of miles away but that’s no way to justify the killing of 3,000 innocent people.
“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, it’s not cowardly.”
This POS is just another prick willing to say anything to try and get his ratings up. He’s nothing but a sorry washed up loser.
