3. There's something wrong with Bill Maher
Disclaimer: I never saw the video, but I'll bet it's vaguely creepy and doesn't really make much sense.

That seems to be his M.O. Make sense for a long time, then do something really weird.

And why does he always attack white guys?

17. I'm a woman and this one really made sense to me
The whole clip. I keep referring to teabaggers as Klansmen, too lazy to iron a white sheet. He did the same thing with white guy penises and he really got it spot on. It was a smackdown on faux masculinity- you know, the kind that gets the ex Chimperor and Hugo Chavez beating their chests like silverback Gorilla's. Sound and fury, signifying absolutely nothing.

22. I saw the show.
I did not find it creepy. He was talking about he allegation that Favre tried to hit on some young women and was shot down repeatedly, and ended up sending her a picture of his penis as if that would turn her around and win her over. The topic was then linked to the sense of entitlement that Favre as a part of the dominant White Male power structure, has and how his actions are an microcosm of the recent craziness exhibited by the TeaParty which is primarily composed of White Men.

See, I know this is an over-generalization but, White men are actually a minority with regards to their numbers, but they have historically yielded power unequal to their numbers and actual abilities. The demographic shifts that are occurring in this country and the political and economic shifts occurring globally are freaking the traditional White Male power structure out. That is what Maher was getting at. It's called White privilege and it is being challenged, making some people extremely uncomfortable.

He concluded with a picture of Palin, O'Donnell, and Bauchmann, the three conservative MILFs as he called them, and stated that they are only popular because of White Men who have elevated them to such high status not because of what they are but because of what they represent. A throwback to a time when men were men, White men were in complete control, and women were as dumb as bricks and only good for one thing.

I agree that Maher can go over the top and his message sometimes gets obscured by his arrogance or smarmy delivery. This however, was hammer, nail, SMACK.

4. Maher is a sicko and he looks like Freddy Kruger
Maher is no friend to liberals or women, in particular. If people here don't get that, you're out of it.

18. So he's experimental?
He wanted to know how sex with an anorexic might be and at the risk of getting this thread locked, I'm quite sure he made sure she didn't have time to mouth off about the things she usually mouths off about.

12. +1 I wonder if he makes so many sex jokes because he's asexual
He seems so totally lacking in sexuality, I don't mean the organs, just lacking in interest or desire. Like he he has no sexual orientation whatsoever.

Which makes me wonder if that's why his attempts at bawdy humor fall so dead and flat...and are just plain creepy.

On the other hand, I've had a few beers
:beer:

14. He's like Pat from the old "That's Pat!" SNL skits.
He's neither here nor there.

26. are you male or female? the vibes he gives me are that he's quite interested in sex,
but probably of some perverted creepy variety.

11. It was pretty funny
IMHO. Favre deserved it. What he did was far more offensive than anything Maher said about the incident.

13. It started out funny but it got tiresome after awhile
And just a little creepy.

After yammering about Farve's schwanztucker for what seemed like 10 minutes Maher had to do some real comedic gymnastics to bring Palin and O'Donnell into the bit and I didn't think he made a very skillful segue.

20. It made sense.
The rant was about how rich white guys are angry because they are realizing they are in the minority now, and they are scared.

They like Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann because they want to go back to the days of the stupid housewife, is what he said.

I think he was right. Rich white guys (which he stated as "white penises") feel threatened.

They can't dominate women and minorities anymore on the basis of sheer numbers.

28. Maybe Brett Favre sent a pic of his dick as a message for her to fuck off
That was the first thing I thought of. Not as some attempt at seduction, because that doesn't even make sense.

30. I guess you've never received a pic of somebody showing you that
he's a real "hot and horny guy"? Lucky you!

29. As someone who has been on the receiving side of unwanted penis pictures
Edited on Sun Oct-17-10 02:20 PM by BuelahWitch
I think Bill hit it out of the park. I don't understand why guys think pics of Little Willy sent over the intertubes will thrill us all to hell, but it never worked for me.
