Anybody else think Maher lawsuit is retaliation by Bushco

[saracat]

media for being anti Bush? Ugliest model I have ever seen and I find it hard to believe that Bill has to pay people to go out with him. I think it more plausible girls might pay him for the exposure! Payback for O'lielly too?

Political comic Bill Maher is being sued by a woman who claims he shook her at a party and welched on promises to marry her and buy her a home in Beverly Hills.
Nancy "Coco" Johnsen, a former model and flight attendant, is seeking $9 million and other unspecified damages, according to the action filed Wednesday in Los Angeles Superior Court. It accuses Maher of fraud, battery and assault


<snip>

According to the suit, Maher convinced Johnsen to quit her career and in return promised the two would marry and have children, that he would reimburse her for clothing and other expenses necessary for her to accompany him as a "power couple" and that he would support her for the rest of her life. He also promised to buy her the house in Beverly Hills where Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez once lived or give her money to buy a similar house, the suit contends.
But after she quit her job as Delta Airlines, Johnsen said, Maher "verbally abused" her and at a party last May he became angry and shook her, causing back and neck injuries.

5. ya right as much as i like the pig maher, he is a pig

and he has never been shy in admitting it and his disdain for marriage. lol lol lo llol i think this is just friggin karma going on as he points the finger at all wives of being exactly this and the woman he gets all tangled up with is exactly what he says women are. so see how we create our world,. maher creates this to be woman, karma wise exactly what he creates for himself

oh well reap what we soe

like the man on politics not on view of me

[saracat]

6. I think Maher is a pig, but this whore is a pig too. and don't flame me

using the word whore, becuse not all women are saints and if you read the suit,it is obvious she was trying to sell herself.Sorry ,I don't respect whores,male or female,political or otherwise!

[seabeyond]

7. kiss on cheek, whore, slut whatever, she doesnt sound nice

no flame from me. i could see bad in women as much as the bad in men. equal opportunity. they create their mess in their bad. i prefer not to live that mess. but nah, there are using women out there, that is for sure.

[Hello_Kitty]

16. Totally agree. I love Maher's politics but he's a sexist pig.

Which is something that applies to many men who are famous or in positions of power, regardless of their political affiliations.

[saracat]

12. I know. Check the other post!

[laheina]

9. I don't understand the appeal of being a *kept* woman.

Life is alot easier when you pay your own way, but maybe I'm an odd chick that way. I dunno.

[Kurovski]

10. Link not working.

But even I know Maher better than this woman.

He has always made clear that he is no fan of the little ones, and has repeatedly stated that marriage was not for him.

Sounds like a bogus charge on its face.

"Shook" her? So, what, does she have "Shaken Bimbo Syndrome" now?

[Warren DeMontague]

20. Gee, whiz, why didn't she file charges?

I mean, that sounds like assault, to me.

I'm sorry, but this smells like a garden-variety shakedown.. puh-leez.

[sam sarrha]

26. there is a word for a $9,000,000 garden. but it eludes me,oh!.GOLD MINE!

2. She's Not Ugly

do you honestly think a guy with an ego as big as Maher's would go out with "the ugliest model" ? There's another picture of her at a link in Lounge, she's a beautiful woman

[saracat]

11. Yes, she is. She looks like a guy to quote another poster!

I can't transfer the pix but it is in the original post.The topless pix is better but all she is is tits.She hasn't got a gret face.If she is a model it can only be for porn.

[otohara]

15. Whatever - Petty Post Nonetheless

[saracat]

18. It is meant to be! LOL!

I still think Bill is being set up.

[babylonsister]

3. What lawsuit?

Haven't heard about this...

[MsTryska]

13. You know.....

once a while back i knew this record producer guy. He offered me $300 a week to be his trophy girlfriend at industry parties, and he promised i wouldn't have to sleep with him for at least 6 months so we could get to know each other.



I'm not stupid. I turned him down.


Any woman stupid enough to quit the job BEFORE getting the ring, or the papers straightened out, gets no sympathy from me.


as for Bill - this just confirms my gaydar.

[Boredtodeath]

14. Could it be?

Is this the same airline attendant who came forward in the Chandra Levy case?

[rinsd]

17. No....

Why do you find it less plausible for a rich famous guy to lead on a young girl with promises of gifts and marriage vs. a young girl dating a guy for 17 months just to set him up for payback? Even more a Bushco operation doing so?

Now I will grant that Bill probably gets more ass than most but let's not go nutso because we like the guy's politics.

[saracat]

19. You think she is remotely plausible?

Wow! Did you read her filing?

[rinsd]

27. I'm not saying the suit has merit....

Just the Bushco control of such.

[saracat]

29. I just thought that the Bushco Idea was possible as they

did have him kicked off the air when he was on ABC becauses they didn't like what he was saying and the Dems were indirectly involved with the O'Lielly harassament incident via Dem lawyers. O'Lielly even claimed political motivation, I thought it possible this was payback. Maybe this is tinfoil hat but I thought it might be possible. They have done it before and we do not have very many voices out htere.We can't afford to have any silenced. Sexual inuendo is ,after all, their method of choice.

[dorktv]

21. Everything I have ever read on Bill Maher (including

that weird novel he wrote) points to him not getting married because he does not want to be restrained in his behavior in any way (or like me, having his heart broken 15 years ago made him decide to swear off love forever). And he might be a pig but he says you call the lady after you have sex with her. That is more then I have seen with other guys.

This is just some chick who he went out with, told her the truth and she refused to listen. While this should teach him the value of being in a relationship, I doubt it will do anything to change his behavior.

[Milo_Bloom]

22. What a joke...

So let me get this straight. We are supposed to believe that guy who openly talks about that he is never getting married, doesn't want kids made all these promises to her about getting married and having kids with her?

And Bill Maher, who does okay, but isn't among the fabulously wealthy celebrities, was going to do what... buy her Ben Afflecks old house so they could be a power couple?


LMAO

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

[dorktv]

23. I am reading the actual filing on The Smoking Gun

and I swear this is great comic reading!


http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1111041coco1.html


I am sorry but when a guy asks you to quit your job, you say You ain't going to get no Mmhmm until I see a wedding ring...or however that song goes.

[saracat]

24. Ain't that file a pip?

I think this should be laughed out of court faster than the Fox case on "fair and balanced" with Al Franken! Can you believe she wants to be paid for her dresses and makeup to go to parties with him? What he couldn't get someone else , who could provide her own clothes and makeup, like (gag) Coulter or Arianna Huffington? Like Bill needs this gal that bad? What? He can't get a date? Gimme a break!

[Bombtrack]

25. Actually Bill's house is Ben Afflecks former house

Affleck said on an interview I saw of him that he sold his house to Bill Maher. He was talking about the fact that he had his basketball court there painted with Celtics colors and logos before he sold it to Maher.

My feeling is that this chick is completely full of shit. She's way subpar for him. Every other girlfriend and/or f-buddy of his i've seen has been a ten, just stunning, and this chick looks like a tranny or something at least in the face and horrible boob job.

I don't buy her story for a second. But I also think it's preposterous to think that any politics are involved in it whatsoever. Just a slightly psycho obsessive ex with some vendetta hassling a guy with money.

[mountainvue]

28. No. n/t

[ibegurpard]

30. He promised to marry her???

Anyone even slightly familiar with Maher would have a tough time swallowing that one.
