Real Time with Bill Maher 10x14 (HDTV-KYR)

bill's "white guys dance like this, black guys dance like this" joke was about
20 years past its expiry date. worst yet, he knew better, but did the shitty
joke anyway. hopefully the writer's strike will end soon so bill can get back to
better material.

i totally agree.. that was so cheesy..

well, i'm just very glad this show is upped every week; only way i can watch
this in my country.

and one lame old joke won't change that.

thanks to bill my perception of americans is now that not all of them are
ignorant
fools.

oh, is this coming from a "great" britian where 25% of its population think
winston churchill is fictional and sherlock holmes is not?

no.

actually, it was over half of those polled that thought sherlock holmes was real.

i always find it so laughable when people act as if all americans are idiots, or
as this guy said "ignorant fools." it's the people who think like that who are
the ignorant fools themselves.

since, no one person knows everything, everyone is ignorant to some things in a
sense. i'm neither american nor british, it is a fact that at least one third of
americans are mentally retarded^1 (pretty good odds, though still potentially
another 200 million that are not). on the other hand, while the world sees a
more cultured stereotype of the british (hard to argue there), there are many
brits that may be even as retarded as their american counterparts.

america may have bush (too bad he's not eligible for a 3rd term or he'd be
re-elected - again), but at least they still have a gram of freedom left (for
now i should add), not being under total surveillance^2 by their police state.
