The fact that mAnn is his BFF is quite disturbing. P. J. O’Rourke or Christopher Buckley as a conservative BFF I could understand, but mAnn?

I’ve been praying that Bill would start praying.

How can he spend time with Ann Coulter without a shield to avoid looking directly at her? I am assuming he smokes a lot of weed with her–he might forget to avoid her direct gaze and give a whole new literal meaning to the term ‘stoned’.

See this shed, out back here? The rickety shed that is entirely empty of any contents? This is the shed full of fucks-I-do-not-give regarding anything Bill Maher does or doesn’t do or say.

But isn’t professional political outraging a mode of spectacle which combines commentary with theatrical performance?, to borrow from Wikipedia’s language on a similar topic. Two performers can be friends, although one plays a face and the other plays a heel.

I can accept Bill Maher hanging out with Ann Coulter.

But for some reason if John Oliver were to confess that he hangs out with Ann Coulter, my head would metaphorically explode.

“This is an act. This is what we do. This is Hollywood.”

“I’m crazy, not stupid, Maher said.”

The current political acts are tired and stupid.

Coulter gives LongNecks a bad reputation…

OTOH…

is this Bill’s attempt to convince her she no longer wishes to live in a country that accepts her?

Being in the same room with Ann Coulter would make anyone pray. Please God, don’t let her kill me.

Seriously Bill, is this a bit? Something to make fun of your audience? Coulter? Even if her bit is just an act, it’s despicable.

Hahaha, no kidding…

This isn’t news,actually. In fact, they both have admitted that they used to date once upon a time (I think during his ABC time, or perhaps even before).

But even if you didn’t know that,it really should be no surprise. He has her on quite often, far more than any other right winger, and its perfectly in keeping for both of them. They move in similar circles, know the same agents, the same talking heads, etc. And both have that strain in them that loves to tweak everyone’s noses…just because.

In other words, you could or couldn’t care less.

Your head would figuratively or non-literally explode. Metaphorically, your head would go Trinity Site. (More esoteric than Hiroshima or Nagasaki, I admit; but I am sensitive to the feelings of others.)

Not ALL conservative women are verboten…after all, I’d have wild sex parties with S.E.Cupp, but mAnn Coulter? Even I have standards!

Well Bill, you’ve turned into a lying piece of shit to me. You don’t exist to me anymore

Correction: his BFF is the invisible sky daddy. Coulter-horse is just a friend with whom he supplicates himself to his hallucinations.

So Maher is not an atheist? Hmmm…so why do the movie “Religulous?” I was under the impression that he was out of character for the film, but that was my stupid assumption. Maher spends a lot of time bashing people of faith, when he is a believer himself. I mostly find that weird and creepy as a non-religious person. I know it’s “Hollywood,” but I can tell Colbert is not a conservative because he’s a satirist who mocks his subject by imitation. Maher mocks Christians relentlessly and hates Muslims.

That’s quite an act, being an atheist, but praying with Ann Coulter? Hate-mongers and demagogues pray to demons. I got it! Maher doesn’t believe in God. He prays to the devil. Ding!

Wow, some people will say anything to be on tv.

People, relax. This is Maher’s commentary on the conservative phony Ann Coulter is…and others, too, who have found an act and money-trough they can abide.

Dating Coulter is significantly and substantially different from praying with her. In the long run, however, Maher has publicly admitted he’s as big a hypocrite as the people he rails against.

Parties imply more that two people. I think you need to invite more people to have it be a wild sex party.

What’s with all the Bill Maher hate? I wouldn’t be without his masterful take-downs of the tea party and religious right, and his comedy specials are damn funny.

Oh, and people? He doesn’t actually pray to a portable Virgin Mary kit in a brief case. Consider the way far out remote possibility that a comedian would say a thing and not be 100% serious.
