'I Don't Trust Americans...They're Just Too F***ing Dumb!'

[The Wolf <rayh<spam>@iol.ie>]

HBO's Bill Maher was spewing some extraordinary hatred for his fellow countrymen
again Friday night, this time claiming that he doesn't "trust Americans to do
the right thing or make the right choices" because "[t]hey're just too f***ing
dumb."

Why does he feel this way?

Because not everyone is going to vote for Barack Obama.

Yes, folks, if you don't vote for the Messiah, it has nothing to do with the
issues, or whether the junior senator from Illinois isn't qualified, or even
because you think John McCain is a better candidate.

According to Maher, if you don't vote for Obama, you're "just too f***ing dumb."
At least that's what he told The Atlantic's Andrew Sullivan who fervently made
the case on Friday's "Real Time" for folks to vote for the Democrat ticket in
November (video available here [1] courtesy our friend MsUnderestimated [2]):

BILL MAHER, HOST: I don't trust Americans quite frankly...

ANDREW SULLIVAN, THE ATLANTIC: I do trust Americans.

MAHER: Well, 'cause you're not American. If you lived here as long as I
have...

SULLIVAN: I lived here 25 years.

MAHER: I know, I'm kidding. But I, I honestly do not trust Americans to do
the right thing or make the right choices. They're just too fucking dumb. I'm
sorry. I know I'm a bad guy for saying that.

SULLIVAN: Churchill got it right. Churchill said, "Americans always do the
right thing after they've exhaused every other alternative." And, and, and they
will.

MAHER: And that's when, back when Americans were smarter than they are now.
I, I mean, I do not trust, I don't know how, I certainly can understand why some
people in this country now are saying, "Well, McCain could win," and they are
making preparations, and when I say preparations, I mean for leaving the
country.

That's fine, Bill. Your ilk has been threatening this since 2000. Why don't you
just do it and make the country a much better place?

Somebody once said that the good thing about the US people was that the only
way to get them to do bad things was to lie to them, but the bad thing about
them was that it was that it was so easy.

As someone involved in the propogation of lies to the US people and others,
you will be only too aware of, and grateful for this fact.

Why do republicans so consistently act the same way?

Be fair. They only elected him the second time.
