David Letterman - Bill Maher vs Elisabeth Hasselbeck

[fadi0143]

he don't know hes real father

[elsbymike]

him say some pretty "racist" things in regards to Muslims, Blacks, Asians, and Hispanics".Questioning their religions is not racist. Believing in superstitions and myths in order to segregate other religions is not racist to criticise. It was the mormons who seperated blacks and whites until 1965 when they were forced to changed.". One religion saying the others is wrong and they will be going to hell is not racist just superstitious nonsense. An aweful lot of people are going to hell.

[guitargold77]

he wussed on the view, he should have said as a republican you are dangerous, you are the enemy, the antagonist, the ones who time & time again choose money & business over human lives, the closest direct link to the confederates, the ones letting fracing ruin our water the FDA to be weak & the rich to get richer, blondie your lucky if all you got was a bad joke

[yaying404]

just imagine Elisabeth Hasselbeck face when she saw that

[MrMytake]

I saw "the view" that morning, Elizabeth H. tried to corner Bill M. and failed. She had an empty argument as she always does. Just because he made that comment about her she wanted to brand him as a woman hater. It was a smack on you Elizabeth, thats all it was.

[batgurrl]

they do not 'hate' each other - I watch both shows regularly. I believe he thinks she is an idiot (she mostly is) and not 'worthy' of his hate.,and she felt hurt and bullyed, but she probably comes close to hating him I don't get all these comments that he is racist. He make fun of and is critical of everyone.

[gomez19990]

I think Hasselbeck went a little personal on the view, and her saying that it didn't affect her was a lie cuz I wouldn't bring something up if it didn't influence me in any way.

[NexisFilms]

FUCK iPads !!

[xtinerox8797]

love u bill!

[vausteeny]

Friends of mine who've met him say he comes off as elitist and completely self-indulgent. Apparently he's nice to dogs, since they have no ability to challenge his dogma.

[soner5454]

hate the frickn commercial!!

[elm12976]

Bill maher is a RACIST!!!......a racist on people who are ignorant and who are full of batshit so im also a racist on ignorant people and batshitters

[D3r3ct0rsCut]

@elm12976 racist means having hatred for another race of humans... for being somebody against ignorance and "batshitters" you really aren't too smart

[graemeEf1]

@elm12976 That's funny because you're an ignorant batshitter who doesn't know what the word "racist" means.

[elm12976]

bill maher is one of the few liberals who says what he thinks and he is funny as hell

[radomu1]

"I felt like a teenage boy at Penn State" Maher has balls

[PhantomGhost25]

Good to see that racist, smart ass get owned. And by that I mean Bill Maher. Dude thinks because of what he happens to be or involved in makes him better than everyone else, which is why he constantly spews racist dialogue in the form of "jokes" on his show. I guess Liz isn't the dimwitted, wimpy blonde people make her out to be is she? She schooled Mr. Maher in the ways of respect and watching who's name you spew out of your mouth.

[truelieswow]

@PhantomGhost25 he's not racist at all. he's being ironic, he's satirising the political sensabilities. Elizabeth is entirely retarded, painfully so.

[PhantomGhost25]

@truelieswow

So when Maher and John Stewart rip on other people regardless of the reason it's only comedy and satire, but when Hasselbeck, Rick Sanchez, or others rip on them, they're either taking it too personally, didn't "get" the joke, or worst, dare I say...anti-Semitic? Okay, I see how that works. Maher has a record of hidden and undercover racism and sexism, but as long as he says it, it's all fun and jokes, right?

[truelieswow]

@PhantomGhost25 neither of them are racist. Stewart and Maher are being ironic and satirical, i've yet to see them ever be racist. I didn't claim that Hasselbeck was racist, I don't think she is at all. But, she disengeniously quotes Maher out of comedic context and acts with false moral superority. Irrespective of whether you found Maher's joke funny or not, it was a joke, not a serious statement of political intent. The problem is there's a lack of really funny right wingers.

[PhantomGhost25]

@truelieswow

Somehow I believe that a point was missed, and I'll clarify what I've been saying. First of Bill Maher is an undercover racist. I should know, I do watch his show. On to my point, I didn't get the joke nor did I think it was funny...sorry, it just wasn't. As for being taken out of context, maybe it was by Elizabeth H., but know this, If she doesn't like what he said about her she had every right to jab back at him, and she did just that. She also made it funnier than what he did.

[zip33111]

@PhantomGhost25 I agree, she had the right to confront him, however.. he was invited to talk about his book. I wanted to hear him, not her. He was a guest and he was disrespected.

[joeottoson]

@PhantomGhost25 You have to be funny to "rip" on someone. RIck Sanchez and Hasslebeck are not funny. They've never been billed as comedians and for good reason. You'd need a joke like Rush to pull that off.

[PhantomGhost25]

@joeottoson

Hasselbeck didn't have to be funny(to me she was, but that isn't the point) to tear into Maher, but she did indeed tear him a new one...again, TO HIS FACE. Not on a late night political comedy show like Maher did, she did it to his face.

[joeottoson]

@PhantomGhost25 I suppose. If throwing a tantrum with all the grace of a third grader constitutes tearing into someone.

[khart221]

@PhantomGhost25 the notion that he utilizes "racist dialogue" holds no bearing at all with respect to anything this man says or implies. I honestly have no idea what you mean; unless you were eluding to something else?

[PhantomGhost25]

@khart221

I do watch his show, and I've heard him say some pretty "racist" things in regards to Muslims, Blacks, Asians, and Hispanics. This isn't a case of me being sensitive or thin skin, some of his material is very racist, sexist, and unfunny. I tell you what, let a Black, Asian, or Hispanic comic get on the air and mention something about Jews, ovens, burned toast, or ashes, and lets just see how long his show remains on the air. How about that?

[khart221]

@PhantomGhost25 I think you mean to say he's very stereotypical with regards to his comedic material. I do not believe Maher is trying to imply that he is a racist through his dialogue. The man simply points out things that most rational people think about in today's state of affairs, but just lack the audacity to actually say out loud. Sure, some of his stuff can be considered discourteous, I can see your point - but racist? No, I can't agree with that.

[12Ominous]

I still like him though, Bill Maher appears to be America's only voice of reason aside from Ron Paul.

[12Ominous]

@junaidnoorim ................Obviously Not.

Bill Maher has an ivy league education, how is he ignorant?



[skidancin]

@12Ominous Someone like you, who appreciates Ron Paul, might say he's ignorant for his ability to gloss over economic libertarianism and accept liberal promotion of big government with no real responsive argument.  Well, maybe.

[junaidnoorim]

God, I hate both Maher and Hasselbeck. Both ignorant bigots.

[cararacs]

@junaidnoorim Maher is highly educated and not sexist nor racist so how is he an ignorant bigot?? You should probably look at the definitions of words you choose to insult people with.

[12Ominous]

@RackedRabbi I believe Bill know's Bill better than you know Bill, it's arrogant to suggest that you can know someone better than they know themselves.

[junaidnoorim]

@12Ominous Are you Bill Maher's lover?

[12Ominous]

@RackedRabbi That's a fallacy, Bill knows Bill better than you know Bill.

[12Ominous]

@RackedRabbi Why would you want someone to think you were anything other than what you were. Your statement is absurd and fallacious. People are who they believe are because who you are is ultimately who you choose to be. Our cognitive abilities are by a large the same, however some people value intellectualism and choose to explore it and some do not. I fail to see this distinction you're trying to make, it suggests that people don't know themselves as well as others know them?............

[RackedRabbi]

Maher is a legend in his own mind. He is certainly NOT the intellectual giant he wants everyone to think he is.

[klongyaw7]

I certainly hope that he's kidding when he says he really likes this woman since she is one of the dumbest people on the planet.

[soundbombin23]

Aside from her looks...why is hasselbeck on TV?

[thenfm]

bill needs to learn how to keep his cunts in check: MANHOOD101. COM

[jred414]

bill maher is a jackass

[JLoveBomb]

It's still not funny and it's still sexist, constantly remarking on women's appearances and saying even if one is a respected reporter and one is a babbling airhead, they are interchangeable because they are both blond and white and pretty. It was a stupid joke that also did a disservice to Logan.

I love Bill Maher, but as much as this guy gets paid, he can afford something more than cheap laughs.

[DarkFantasyvids]

Bill Maher wone the battle of not looking like the fool, because he's just making jokes while she was acting ridiculous and trying to make a fool out of him, but he's confident enough to not feel like a fool, so one can't be made of him by a bimbo like that, not that I like Bill Maher that much he's kinda cocky and rude, but he did Pwn Elizabeth Hasslebeck, not hard I suppose, she mostly does it to herself.

[shotsky94]

I didnt like the comments he made, but he handled this very well....

[3434aaaa]

I'm not from America. I'm from India. I just saw Elisabeth Hasselbeck on Google Images. I think she looks good.

[byroninwahroonga]

Small man, big hate.

Big nose, too.

[falpalemily]

Bill Maher is a dick.

[rar9518]

@falpalemily He isn't a dick he's just critical. All his claims are fair.

[lostallmymirth]

Elizabeth, like all good Christian, Republican, bird brains with no sense of humor, created a cheap straw man with her implication that Maher wanted her to be raped in place of the other chick leaving Egypt.

In the truth the reporter was raped several days AFTER he told the joke.

All true birdbrains love to create absurd scenarios, then attack them as absurd... as is the creationist favorite straw man:

“Waall, if Darwin said I came from a monkey…why are there still monkeys…huh..huh?

[mmjj2]

who said Bill Maher won, everyone i talked to thought she made him look like the ass he is!

[whitebunnyturbo]

@mmjj2 well obviously about 90% of the 115,522 people who viewed this thinks he won (do to the like bar to dislike bar ratio) also over 800,000 twitters said they thought he won. there are a lot of smart people outside of your retard friend circle, you should take a look around. naa im kiddin i don't care what you do...

[Neckromorph]

@mmjj2 Then everybody you talked is very stupid and probably supporters of that bitch. You heard very wrong.

[netoboss831]

if bill maher would say that mexicans eat tortillas i would just fucking laugh because its true! AND IM MEXICAN! lol this white bitch needs to learn how to take a dick up the ass. specially since shes a blonde lol

[12Ominous]

@byroninwahroonga.........Bill Maher is 55, most people outgrow visceral insecurities at like 20, you must still be in highschool cause you're clearly looking at this through a 14-19 year old lens. His joke wasn't even that offensive and clearly was not motivated by animosity, Elizabeth is the one who keeps bringing it up, he apologized sincerely like a year ago multiple times. If anything Hasselback is tired of her brainless douche bag jock boyfriend. This is 2011 after all.

[Water4Jeremiah]

I don't see why people are upset at Elizabeth. It's good television watching Bill Maher make fun of Elizabeth. The neo-conservatives are really quite smart. Convince a pretty blonde that all she needs is her looks and her famous husband to have any quality & then let the entire nation lay the brunt of the neo-conservative angst against her visually-superficial-self instead of the people behind the scenes feeding her lines.

That's why I'm torn. I like Bill Maher but neo-conservatism is genius.

[hellooooo000]

@Water4Jeremiah heh, are you doublethinking on purpose?

It's called "Thick Skin" not "Thick Skull"

[Masmosaic1]

Elizabeth suffers from "Cuntitis."

[amilcar60]

@zwiiyt Someone has to do it, plus there is always something new to look forward too.

[Zer0small]

Perfect bass riff timing XD

[SalCast7]

Bill Maher twitter post 17 Nov 2011:

"Speaking of distortions the Hasselbeck line on Real Time on Feb 4 came 11 days before we knew Lara Logan was raped - typical Republican conflation."

[MTVVH1sucks]

@SalCast7 true

[skidancin]

@SalCast7 So, what was the timeline then? You are saying Logan was attacked a week after Maher's comment? Seems to be, as it seems she was attacked on the 11th. Ok. But really, I notice Hasselbeck, to be fair, says Lara Logan "later," i.e. after Mahers comment, noted she was raped. So by that it seems Hasselbeck was accurate.

[jplztmtu08]

this is like Einstein debating a rock..

[kdwyer52]

Hasselbeck came off like the thin skinned sensitive teenager she is, as usual. At least she's consistent....

[HotPocketsBoy]

Elizabeth is a annoying bitch yes... but i'll smash that no problem



[byroninwahroonga]

@HotPocketsBoy ***but i'll smash that no problem***

Sure you will, Pockets. But for now, just stick to cuddling your Twilight poster.

[HotPocketsBoy]

@byroninwahroonga what? what does me wanting to bone elizabeth have to do with twilight? lmaoo

[cameronwick]

Bill's comment on the view was spot on. He said "I feel like I'm in high school sitting next to you"

[bistnenutte]

she wrongfully attacked him anyways.. she completely took it out of context., bill maher didnt even realize this himself. mostly cause he doesnt write those jokes himself, thats obvious. next time bill, write ur own dam jokes atleast be part of it when its being constructed instead of just reading them off and choosing which ones you like best to air for your show. he would have caught that she was attacking him for the wrong content since the timing was off on the event he was joking about,.

[allendista]

Bill Maher rocks!

[poweronia]

LOL

[tazerqueen]

Bill, you're a hopeless romantic

[Maxantium]

Elizabeth Hasselbeck got her ASS HANDED TO HER by Maher

[byroninwahroonga]

Poor Bill.

So little height, so much hate.

[jtw18]

@byroninwahroonga i hate you

[limwang75]

fuk up us econ the syrian situation who care about some our might be run by some rep extremeist no care about some self center blonde

[almightyfire1]

elizabeth is NOT intelligent, she is being spoon fed by the republican party.

[homeycdawg]

Lol "it just makes the sex hotter". Bill Maher isn't 'always' right, but he's always a badass.

[CRobbart]

Id like to put Hasselbeck and Teresa Giudice on an deserted island together.

[boomingpearl]

Elizabeth doesnt know how to work hard or do shit! hell unlike every one on that show who worked hard to be where they are elizabeth was on survivor thats it! shes pathetic and if they want a blonde republican or a republican on there get one that is educated, not a piece of shit!!

[ate2fiver]

The top comment has "butthurt" in it. It's amazing the things the Internet has given us.

[inti411]

Hasselbeck finally shows clearly her inmaturity, ignorance and stupidity. With her suspension today from the show is clear that Walters should be looking for a new face if she wants her ratings UP!!!

[rafareydelclay]

Maher should make more jokes about sanctimonious fags and welfare niggers. Now, that would be some funny shit, y'all!

[extrovertedthinker]

@rafareydelclay Please do the world a favor and drink some bleach. Thanks!

[TheRevolutionCanada]

Hasselbeck does know bill maher is a comedian right??? I guess its is true that republicans cant ever take a joke unless its at a democrat, Elizabeth get the fuck over it it was a joke, my god grow up

[sumguyx2x]

Why is Hasselbeck on the View? Most annoying person ever!

She had some bug up her ass! BAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH!

[CRobbart]

@sumguyx2x They keep her on because she is the only conservative out of the 5 ladies. She is of a different breed than the rest of them ( not saying in a good or a bad way, just different). Without her the show would be boring.

[sumguyx2x]

Why is Hasselbeck on the View? Most annoying person ever!

[freddythecanine]

Bill Maher and most liberals can dish it out but cannot take it....they refuse to see hoe hateful they are

[TheCoolMovement]

@freddythecanine After that nightmarish 8-year reign of Bush/Fox, liberals can be as brutal as their hearts desire.

[magikalsound]

@freddythecanine Pretty sure bill took it just fine. It seems like he doesn't even give a fuck.

[imcrazy85]

dude can you fire bill again wtf is in his head shit? why would he say that penn st joke now

[alwaysmoml]

No Bill you were right the first time... we all hate you! Did you enjoy that? As a comedienne my comment gave me an excuse to hide behind my nasty words. Something you are very good at. Oh and by the way, you are not funny either.

[andrewjacksonbr]

@alwaysmoml When you say "we all hate you!" who are speaking for?.....I'm a reasonable person who doesn't often agree with Bill or Elizabeth and after watching Mrs. Hasselbeck's childish behavior it is clear she was clearly unprofessional. Elizabeth calling him "Billy" and limiting her coworkers' ability to do their job is completely her fault. And its not the first time, Elisabeth has "abused", "attacked", or "strongly disagreed" with guests.

[topcat42]

@andrewjacksonbr

Are you for real or what? Those loons Behar and Whoopy go after every Republican that goes on the view. Now you have your panties all twisted up when a Democrat gets a taste of his own medicine? Priceless.

[StoneBeezt2]

@alwaysmoml He doesn't hide behind nasty words, he's on HBO, they give him the freedom to talk about whatever he wants uncensored, and the joke that hasselback was referring to about Logan happened a week AFTER he told the joke, its not like it happened the day before and he was purposely being hateful like she was making it out to be. If you don't think he's funny that's your loss, but I think he is and talks about real, relevant things.

[Xxorangelemon34xX]

@alwaysmoml I forgot you are the judge of all things funny. Im assuming your republican? Yeah bill oreilly is a box of giggles. There isnt really any far right republican comedians cause they always have something in their ass, but thats besides the point. Bill Maher is also a commentator besides comedian. YES, we ALL hate him. thats why he has an extremely successful show on HBO.  lame. common man.

[topcat42]

@Xxorangelemon34xX

Bill Mahr is an angry loon who can't stop talking about Republicans. When he left the comforts of his studio he was confronted about the shit he spews and he squirmed like the worm that he is.He was brow beaten by a female, bravo.

[26ronb]

I can't stand either of them. While they seem to be polar opposites (right & left) they are both similarly annoying. They are the worst of right & left!

Truth is, they are really rather alike & what they dislike in the other is really what they see in themselves!

[watch420]

Bill Maher made the EH/Logan remark on February 4th. The assault on Logan happened on February 11th.

Elisabeth is lying to gain sympathy ... it is shameful that Elisabeth is using an attack of another woman to lash out at someone else.

No wonder she was removed from The View the next day.

[CaptainRidley]

Why does anyone care? One dude makes a joke. Big deal. People are babies.

[Sweetp000433]

I get why Elizabeth is mad I'd be mad too if someone said that about me, it's something that's always in the back of our minds that we're afraid of, whenever we on the streets alone or while we're watching the news it's right there for us to remember....but I would have gotten over in like a day, it's just a joke girl.

[Twostones00]

That Hasselbitch got everything she asked for. Bill could have unloaded on that Pro-torture Christian and she would have never been the same. He just chose a calm path to keep the corn dog eating bitch from exploding. Good job Bill.

[paulagriffithpaulag2]

I don't like Elizabeth Hasselbeck but I do think Bill said a very horrible thing and she should be offended. If some guy told a joke that I should be traded to get raped and killed I would be offended too and it's not a joke or funny. He was just being mean and underline he knows that people don't like her so he was really pushing the line. She should have been more mature in how she handled it and just tell him it was hurtful and not to make jokes about her in that way.

[Bankallday]

@paulagriffithpaulag2 Walk it off...You'll be ok

[StoneBeezt2]

@paulagriffithpaulag2 The problem is, the joke he told about Logan, hadn't happened yet when he told it, it happened a week later, she's full of shit.

[BarbaraJD]

Bill Maher's joust with Elizabeth Hasselbeck on the view wasn't an act, simply because it would take a sense of humor on Elizabeth's part to do pull off something like that. Elizabeth, like most neo-cons, has absolutely no sense of humor, and never will. It's just not included in the neo-con DNA.

[lufflyness]

@BarbaraJD It would also require for the whole thing to actually be funny... which it wasn't. Bill Maher needs better writers for his jokes :/

[Lehmann108]

@BarbaraJD Don't even compliment her by calling her a neo-con. Her idiocy transcends politics: she's a fucking empty-headed moron.

[DarkFantasyvids]

@Lehmann108 It's like they just randomly picked some blond conservative bimbo with a fake tan to do the show, People like her don't really know anything about politics, or many subjects that they have strong opinions about for that matter. I'm sure she knows all kinds of fun stuff about being a soccer mom and doing her hair, waxing and tanning though.

[hellooooo000]

@DarkFantasyvids they do it throughout the newsmedia & panel shows etc - gotta show balance by havin an opposing viewpoint. Most of the time it just shows how the stupid ppl side think (aka usually Repugs) and prevents any real depth for any attempt at discourse - which is what actually entertains the viewer & keeps em watching.

[PapaMagnum]

Elizabeth Hasselbeck is quick to be butthurt. She gets angry and snippy whenever someone challenges her views because she's not used to it. Probably because she's a cute blonde and used to having her ass kissed her whole life, but whatever, I'm glad someone puts her in her place.

[CelineReneRC]

@PapaMagnum I KNOW!!! I fucking hate Elizabeth Hasselbeck! She's such a dumb twat. I miss Rosie O'Donnell kicking her ass in EVERY argument they ever had.

[MrRickywallace]

@PapaMagnum She didn't get "put in her place," moron, she addressed a rude, crude comment that he made about her. She's outnumbered by left wing bitches, so let her get her two cents in. Grow up, turd.

[oakaveli]

@PapaMagnum seriously, I've never seen a conservatard NOT get butthurt whenever their name is mentioned in a joke. It's as if their sense of humor was surgically extracted and destroyed

[heynow2111]

He said they were great friends just to set up "it makes the sex hotter" line and put another bug up her ass.

[TheFOOfighterFREAK]

@Dave Letterman 11-15-11 I Love BILL MAHER..funny guy. I'll be there for the Foo Fighters with Joan Jett TONIGHT! :O" YEE-HAW!" The show at the Garden on Sun. 11-13 was Brilliant, Spectacular, & with JOAN JETT (of The Runaways & also of the Blackhearts) was Visionary. You have to hear DAVE GROHL Scream :O" JOAN JETT" :D to appreciate it. See you after 'Sons Of Anarchy!' >> Love you DAVE LETTERMAN! You are the best.

[LiberalAtheistChick]

Poor Bill!!! Elisabeth is such a bitch!!

[Boobalopbop]

@LiberalAtheistChick I don't think she is in on the joke. He takes her bs in stride and she has a bug up her ass about some joke from back in February. She needs to grow up.

[LiberalAtheistChick]

@Boobalopbop No, I agree. She's a republican... they don't have very good sense of humors!! Lol.
