The Top 10 Most Obnoxious Quotes From Bill Maher

You may find this surprising but I used to enjoy Bill Maher, back in the days when his show was called Politically Incorrect, and it was found on Comedy Central. But as his show made its way through ABC before landing on HBO, Maher went  from funny political humor to acerbic vitriol that is neither funny or enlightening--- just nasty. He went from someone who would poke at both sides, to someone whose venom was only directed toward the GOP, conservatives, and people of faith.

Some of my friends such as Andrew Breitbart and Dana Loesch have appeared on Real Time, his HBO program and I give them much credit. While it can be fun to have a reasonable debate with people who disagree, trying it with people who have no desire to debate, only to drag through the mud cannot be much fun. Thankfully Andrew and Dana have the intelligence and grasp of the facts to top Maher and his liberal guests, for the rest of us it would be a skirmish in which we would loathe to participate.

Bill Maher is neither a TV Host nor comedian, rather he is a misanthrope and a bully.

In honor of HBO renewing Bill Maher’s ignorant, pseudo-intellectual hate-fest,“Real Time with Bill Maher” for a 10th season, my friend John Hawkins created a list of  the top 10 most obnoxious Bill Maher quotes which he has allowed me to cross-post below.


After you have enjoyed the list, allow me to suggest that to say thank you to John for his hard work, you go visit his site, Right Wing News, read a few posts and click on a couple of ads. 

Now as promised the below is what gives Bill Maher his AAA Rating,  The Apex of his Acerbic Ass-hattery, the official Right Wing News list of the top 10 most obnoxious Bill Maher quotes:
