Former Human posted:I would vote for Howard Stern before Amy Klobuchar. As would I. Not only because Howard Stern is actually intelligent and understands human behavior, but because he hasn't committed himself to a ridiculous ideology of extremely measured incrementalism to counter the revanchist and psychopathic Nazis in the GOP.

Stern trolling Bill was pretty fun. E: Former Human posted:I would vote for Howard Stern before Amy Klobuchar. Man you aren't kidding. I didn't know much about her but I don't remember her being this terrible. Good lord. Grand Fromage fucked around with this message at 02:22 on Oct 13, 2019 |

Bill said he liked Klobuchar because she treats her young staff horribly, and this was very early in the primary before the recent "you know who I'm looking at..." remark. I did enjoy Stern giving him a hard time in between the mutual kiss fest they were giving each other. Funny, in the 90s Maher was a self described Libertarian, and Howard Stern ran on the Libertarian party ticket for New York governor (to the disgust of John Laroquette, then only known as the lecherous lawyer on Night Court). I've never been a fan since I can't stand shock jocks, he was a radio troll pre-internet and I never found his racial humor funny. And he lived down the street in the same predominantly black area of Roosevelt Long Island as members of Public Enemy. But on this episode Maher said they were both lefties, just not one of the crazies. His past enthusiasm for Sanders is now a dismissive "yes, we love Bernie too, :smug eyeroll:" But now he's railing on and on about being center left and "Republican Classic". Yet no one he supposedly supports wants to do anything that he rants about in his final New Rules every week. I also laughed when Maher complained to Stern about Maher's own audience. I wanted Stern to tell him "well, its because your jokes just don't land. Don't get mad at the fans." Too many entitled comedians these days rail against the audience when they suck, including Maher, or he tells them that it "went over their heads" or "um...that was a joke" like in his opening monologue. The crowd is too afraid to "ooooo" when he says something actually cutting or burns someone because he confuses it with booing. Talk about being overly sensitive... We all know how much he hates kids and complains about their activism (not just the politically correct safe spaces on campuses), but he at least is leaving Greta Thunberg alone. I watch Maher now for the same reason I used to watch William F. Buckley on Firing Line or The McLaughlin Report...which is really sad. And as I've said in the past: his guest list is getting shorter and shorter: I'm recognizing fewer and fewer panel guests other than the usual suspects such as next week's: Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Tyson: it resonates with the... Maher: resonate, whats that mean? (!!!!) Tyson: its a physics word... Maher: sounds like an Amos & Andy word... *canned laughter*

If Tyson isn’t better than he was on Joe Rogan a few weeks ago, I really hope he finishes fading into obscurity. It legitimately may have just been his first time getting high or something, though. Edit - ing to es Super Deuce fucked around with this message at 20:19 on Oct 13, 2019 |

Fun to watch Stern wrap Maher around his finger and manhandle him without effort. Stern knew exactly how to stroke Bill’s ego so that he never even heard half of Stern’s cuts.Gimmedaroot posted:I also laughed when Maher complained to Stern about Maher's own audience.

The crowd is too afraid to "ooooo" when he says something actually cutting or burns someone because he confuses it with booing. Talk about being overly sensitive... Of course Bill doesn’t get that “ooooo-ing” isn’t booing. That would have required him to watch some ~poor people~ comedy.  It’s pretty dark that even his audience doesn’t find the news funny any more: the dead silence at half of his “jokes” is what I’ve been waiting for: people to get fed up with it all...

Given Tyson's other Big Thing lately is a thing with Shapiro of all people, thinking it is beyond safe to say the man has lost it after the accusations and then some---Maher is only getting closer to that circuit than not of late.

punk rebel ecks posted:Bari Weiss is such an intellectual heavyweight, she got manhandled by Joe Rogan: Going back to look for when Krystal Ball was on and laughed in Bill's face about him thinking Klobuchar would be best to win the general election, but god drat. This is such a good clip, hahaha. I love Jimmy Dore and his audiences. Immediately everyone groans when they see Bari's dumb mug on the screen, lol. edit: Super Deuce posted:Bari Weiss is a moron, but Jimmy Dore’s opinion of her shouldn’t matter at all because he’s somehow dumber. To be fair, I don't think Jimmy even says he's particularly smart; he's just not an evil Nazi. He's a dumb guy and it's easy to win him over on most issues if you don't have, as the basis of your opinion, 'hey how about we kill all of the...' Which actually puts him, morally, above about 80% of politicians and people in the media. Apoplexy fucked around with this message at 13:52 on Oct 18, 2019 |

Talk of impeachment goes on month after month and year after year. TV shows still talking like Trump is an existential threat every single day. This guy might the most impeachable POTUS we could see in the next 500 years.  are they waiting for? It's bizarre.Trump would've been fired hundreds of times over if he had a normal vocation. Spineless Ds and intellectually dishonest Rs. We're beyond the point of embarrassment here.

Zogo posted:Talk of impeachment goes on month after month and year after year. TV shows still talking like Trump is an existential threat every single day. This guy might the most impeachable POTUS we could see in the next 500 years. We're IN Impeachment, but the senate has to commit to doing something with it, after the house does. With Mitch in there, it's always still a gamble if he'll even let a vote go through. He's already said he'd hold a trial, but that's even a maybe if he decides to change his mind. He can always just half rear end it, say he did it and just bin it. Trump's still a threat, not just because of all the poo poo he does loudly, but the poo poo he's doing quietly. He's filling up Judge Vacancies with conservatives, which are life time appointments. He's ripping back EPA, Civil, and work place protections. He's pulling rights away from people. All of this, to get reinstated, might have to go back through the senate to get reinstated, and if we still have a republican senate that can just block everything, we may not get those protections back for a while. They need to make the Impeachment SO blatant, so horrible, and a very easy story to present in the trial, that if the Senate leaves it on the table, blocks it with filibuster or votes it down, they look bad to their constituents.

National polls, which don't actually matter because how the gently caress can they with their methodology, show Biden beating Trump as well, but individual state polling shows Bernie beating him by more points.

I skipped the vaccine bullshit because, well what’s the point. Though the panel starts by saying Trump is actually a political genius. Why the gently caress do people keep saying this? Cheating and lying isn’t political genius. It’s cheating and lying. We know he did it. These fucks need to stop glorifying it.

Prager is the worst of the right wing radio assholes because he has no sense of humor. Limbaugh produces something entertaining once in a while. Evil, but entertaining. Hannity was friends with Opie and Anthony. Laura Ingraham is literally publicly a Nazi, which is funny, though not "ha ha" funny. But Prager? Unlistenable. He's just a oval office.

I was wondering what Bill meant when he said Howard Stern has "weird ideas about health." Stern eats right, exercises, doesn't drink or smoke, etc. Stern loudly criticizes idiots who don't get vaccines or vaccinate their kids, so now I assume that's what Bill was getting at. So stupid.

You'd think Maher would, at minimum out of self interest in preservation outright, have leveraged a far greater portion on proportion of the show to lean in hard on the raging Cali fires, the crooked power outfit, etc than continue to tilt at his damned dilapidated windmill on anti-vaxx/me-too/some Prager idiot/etc. All these years of folks consistently telling him this stuff is madness save for the occasional, grasping idiot pulls for guests and the panel to egg him on while things just about literally burn down around him.
