Real Time with Bill Maher: Amy Walter, Rep. Jack Kingston

[toverkleet]

@SteelTownBrutha maybe because the Republicans are killing everything that the Democrats try to do...

[toverkleet]

Yeah Kingston seems like a nice guy, like something just not quiet politician even though he is. (the Hussein comment wink wink.) But he even acknowledges that. Too bad not more Republicans are more like that.

[2001Horatio]

Every time I watch this (and I like Maher) I thank God I don't live in the US any more... the level of political discussion is so juvenile! And not just on this show.... you have the other comedy channels - Fox NewSS. LOL

[Relbl]

I swear, David Frum sometimes can sound lucid and reasonable and other times it's like he's on a funny-farm. Maybe he's generally medicated and goes off it sometimes?

[Kaalec]

As a Canadian, I want to apologize for David Frum. His mother must be spinning in her grave.

[xjlmt]

@Kaalec Thank you. He is a shitbag.

[waste0fspais]

Bill srsly run for office already do it, fuckin schwarznegger did it you can do it 2!!!!

[halflifeproductionz]

david frum is a cunt.

[maj1kninja07]

THe flag is the symbol not wearing it.

[MaskedMarvyl]

Who is this toad on the left side of the panel?

"What a FOOLISH thing for Obama to say about wearing a lapel pin".

"I think there's a missing piece of the story there", regarding the fact that the Dallas police didn't bother to keep checking for weapons.

No, dude. It was all there. I looked up the archived story and read it. The Dallas police didn't do their job. Wonder why?

This jerk must be pulling his hair out that Obama won.

I would like to point out that I think Canadians and Americans are pretty different... but ya, when it comes to at least understanding American patriotism, we know just as much about the U.S. as the average American... all of the most popular shows and a lot of the news we see is about the U.S.

[nural666]

to all arab: boycott american product because she support israel massaker in gaza

[DaHonestAbe]

Molly Ivins had a great quote. I'd rather have someone burn the flag and wrap themselves in the constitution, then burn the constitution and wrap themselves in the flag.

[alizee2010]

@DaHonestAbe

Awesome aphorism.

[wovokanarchy]

Frum is a Canadian Jew. What does he know about American patriotism?

[harveystewart]

I get the Canadian part-- but what exactly about being Jewish makes someone unpatriotic to America?

[jkjl234]

what are you saying? Canadians and Jews know just as much about American patriotism as anybody else. Its not like Canada and the US are that much different buddy.

[linzzyy]

as a canadian, i must disagree

[linzzyy]

with your last sentence

[jkjl234]

@linzzyy i understand that you obviously have a more legit opinion on this matter than me, as a canadian yourself. but i would say that we have more in common than not. im from buffalo, ny so i know a good number of canadians and i have travelled to canada throughout my life. in many ways its a much nicer place than the US.

[BeardShorts]

@jkjl234 You are aware that a great many Jews are American right?

[jkjl234]

@BeardShorts yes. i think you misunderstood what i wrote. i was saying that American Jews DO know what it means to be american.

[Orwellxx]

You are an average american sloth, what do you know about being a decent human being?

[sarith21]

Canadian, alright... what's unAmerican about being Jewish?

[lennycaprino2]

David Frum Bang Bang Obama is President........and you and your Republicans are an endangered species!

[TheAntinode]

@lennycaprino2 and your still a fool

[SteelTownBrutha]

@lennycaprino2

Whos an endangered species Now? Stupid fucking liberals, they can be on the right side of the issue 90% of the time but so pompous, arrogant, and pretentious that they cant hold on to a house majority for two years, Thanks alot democrats, now for the next 6 years NOTHING will get done and the American people have to pay for it! THanks for nothing Dumbshits

[ph03n1xamb1t]

@lennycaprino2

if only that were so

[possessed289]

I had not heard about the Dallas Secret Service not searching folks during some of Obama's appearences. That's pretty interesting when you watch the footage of one SS commanding another SS to back-off from the JFK motorcade right before the shooting.

Don't know the details on the current Dalls-related SS thing, but if it's true, it's rather curious!

[MaGGoTh696]

The hell... I thought that was Demi Moore.

[frustratedlogician]

did he call him patrick duval? my governor's name is duval patrick, and i'd expect that dude to know that...

[Trablo]

Remember, kids: You're not patriotic just because you put a flag or yellow ribbon bumper sticker on your car.

[MaNiAcaLunchBox]

indeed. a sticker or a flag does not make you a patriot. the truest patriots of this country are the men and women who despite all the bullshit still enlist for active duty to support and protect their country.

[JamesWachter]

your absolutely right

[HarveyRex23]

A white redneck Republican not wearing an American flag lapel pin? Holy shit!

[phantasmbunny]

"I stole the line from Patrick Deval" ... ? Does he mean Deval Patrick or is he talking about somebody else entirely?

[popecorkyI]

hooked-nose kike

[darwinkilledgod]

I wonder if Bill will apologize to the Republicans because they didn't make Obama out to be a muslim black teenager on cocaine? Could anyone point to a single Republican that suggested any of those things?  Anyone?

[tgoodfella]

No they tried to make him out to be a terrorist. And a muslim early on his campagining.

[lolman105]

they also criticized Obama for smoking pot when he was young.

[bolderr]

AMY IS SO PRETTY AND SMART!

[ggghockey]

well... we can see that Maher knows his politics, he got the right wing playbook down pat.... today being three weeks until the election, Obamas had to go through all the bullshit lies an ties placed on him

[terrymaco]

So afraid of change. Only to a incongruous dolt would a lapel pin be more indicitive of patriotism than a man's word and deed. Bill, get on these guys for intelligence sack.

[mcbeth917]

Georgia 1st Congressional District Democratic candidate Bill Gillespie and State Party Chair Jane Kidd were in Savannah early last week fighting for vet benefit increases and challenging Republican John McCain's lack of support on veteran issues. Way to go Jane and Bill, our troops need all the help we they can get. Its time to start taking care of our veterans when they come back and provide them the educational opportunities and medical care they deserve.

[DizzyUnicorn]

Love Bill.

[ProjectCC]

Love You.

[mamacal123]

I think Bill and Obama are right..it takes more than a lapel pin for patriotism (it's temporary)..God Bless America. Though i do believe we should express it through hanging our flag (permanent)
