Bill Maher tonight made it easier for big-name GOP donors looking for candidates to back by presenting a “billionaire buyers guide” for which of the “corporate ass-lickers” running for president is the right choice for them.
He ran the gamut from Rick Perry to Mitt Romney and everyone in between. For example, Maher played up “asshole” Ted Cruz who likes the Keystone XL pipeline because “he also oozed down from Canada to Texas.”
Maher didn’t have much to say about Rand Paul and Mike Huckabee, but he had a lot to say about Dr. ben Carson. He told the former neurosurgeon, “You’re an insane paranoid liar who will say absolutely anything, or as Fox News puts it, ‘When can you start?’”
I thought this was quite well done, but if I had one criticism it is that Maher suggested that Rand Paul has real hair that he styles to look like a toupee.
that deep bench is full, but the combined intellect is nominal. bullies, crackpots and bored billionaires is not a bench - it is a sad collection of mirrors of voters and donors that are completely out of touch of reality and see a future that to the rest of us is neither enlightened or feasible.

ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Republican presidential wannabes, this is what Mike Lupica wrote in his NY Daily News column today about a certain wannabe:
ReplyDelete"Somebody tell Sarah Palin that she’s supposed to be the star of “Real Housewives of Alaska,” and not the next Presidential campaign."
But she never was a 'housewife,' and she is about as real as Grimm's Fairy Tales.
ReplyDelete7:53 AM Sarah Palin wouldn't fit in with ANY housewife in Alaska! The majority of them have jobs and care for their husbands and children!
ReplyDeleteThe same is true for the majority of housewives in NJ, Atlanta, and even Beverly Hills.
DeleteThe crazy-ass "Real" housewives are horrible people, terrible wives/mothers. They are all attention-seeking scumbags. Sarah Palins fits in perfectly with that crew.
Have you guys noticed? Very, very little coverage is being given to Palin (on national media) vs all the others that gave speeches in Iowa. She's really IS the 'bottom' rung of those that appeared!
ReplyDelete'The man can only ride you when your back is bent': Sarah Palin 'rambles incoherently' in Iowa after teleprompter freezes... a day after she declared an interest in 2016 run
ReplyDeleteFormer Alaska governor and tea party darling gave confusing address at the Iowa Freedom Summit, rambling after her teleprompter froze
The Republicans' 2008 VP nominee had previously said she was 'seriously interested' in a 2016 presidential bid, but sounded not-ready-for-prime-time
Head-scratching lines included: 'The man can only ride you when your back is bent'
Called President Obama an 'overgrown little boy, angrily shouted 'Screw the left in Hollywood!' and yelled that jihadis should 'get the hell out!'
This is hilarious especially about Palin:
ReplyDeleteGOP Summit—The Good, The Bad And The Absolutely Crazy
GOP presidential contenders flocked to Iowa on Saturday to try out their pitches on the unofficial beginning of the Iowa Caucus. Hint: Sarah Palin has lost her mind.
"And even as she ended it, one sensed less a crescendo than the specter of a gong, a hook to pull her off, or—a sincere thought I had—an ambulance to take her… somewhere."

Dr. Ben Carson endorsed a scam medical "cure."
ReplyDeletehttp://www.mediaite.com/online/ben-carson-reportedly-hawked-drugs-for-shady-medical-company/
The original write-up appeared in the National Review.

A lawsuit in Texas was settled in 2009
"The agreement further decreed that Mannatech employees were prohibited from saying “directly or indirectly” that their products can “cure, treat, mitigate or prevent any disease,” and banned the use of customers’ testimonials making those claims."
But Dr. Carson continued to connect himself with the company up until Spring of 2015.
These articles came out just a couple weeks ago. Things don't look good for Ben Carson.
Anon@ 11:15, maybe there should be some research done on how those who underwent his surgeries are doing post op? There has to be something wrong with this man.
DeleteI haven't spent much time thinking about Rand's lovely locks. So what do you guys think? Is it real or is it roadkill?
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 12:23, Roadkill. Like the other one, who just blew it in Iowa.
DeleteAnother wig that would be fun to pull off when walking near him. Same as to Sarah Palin! Her, even more so!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for the RNC. Gonna be truly funny and popcorn worthy. It IS like rubbernecking an accident. Trump's not going to have it easy with all the other crazies. He started the domino effect and ruined Atlantic City's Gaming industry, still doesn't believe POTUS is merrican. The one I want to see explode is Chris Christie. Boom! To the moon Mary Pat!!!! Then we have the "Les Griz". I hope they all mix up their wigs
