Bill Maher: It’s strange how someone can be so spot-on about Islam and Israel, yet so wrong and so utterly loathsome on everything else. But, hey, you know about the broken clock’s rate of correctness: twice a day. Everything Bill Maher says here is sooooo predictable and such complete BS.

As we all know, the shooter at the Tucson Safeway massacre, Jared Loughner, was a lot like Bill Maher-an atheist who liked to watch MSNBC and say obnoxious things-not like any of ...

Bill Maher: The Rhetoric Of The Right Is Wouldnt It Be Fun To Kill The People We Disagree With
The folks in the audience for Jay Leno’s safe-for-all-audiences Tonight Show clearly would’ve rather had a visit from some cuddly zoo animals than what they got: an extended and at times awkwardly tense visit from HBO’s Bill Maher.
Talking about the shootings in Arizona and Fox News chief Roger Ailes‘ reported instructions to his staff to tone down language after Tucson, Maher argued it would never happen, as “that’s the Rhetoric they love. The Right Wing love...
Bill Maher: 'I'm So Tired of the Second Amendment'
Comic and HBO "Real Time" host Bill Maher has always been good at stirring the pot, and his comments about Gun Rights on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" Tuesday night are certain to stir up something! When Jay Leno asked Bill Maher for his take on the Tucson Shooting Spree that killed six and wounded more than a dozen people last weekend, Maher responded to the Tucson event rather indirectly, but was quite direct as to how he feels about gun issues in general. You must login to comment. The Fox...
911 tapes log harrowing chronicle of Tucson shootings
Tucson, Ariz (Reuters) - A calm male voice surrounded by haunting cries of pain tells a 911 dispatcher of multiple Shooting Victims outside a Tucson Supermarket and of wounds to Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords.
"There was a shooting at Safeway at Ina and Oracle where Gabrielle Giffords was, I do believe Gaby Giffords was hit," the male voice says, with almost animal cries and groans of pain in the background.
"At the Safeway sir? ... Was somebody shot there sir?"
"It looks like a guy had a sem...

Glenn Beck THINKS I'M A PSYCHOPATH
From the Open Letter posted by Glenn Beck on his Web site:
All evidence points to the fact that the assailant from this weekend was severely mentally disturbed. His belief system was not rational by any modern political standard. He was an atheist, believed George W. Bush was responsible for 9/11, feared a global currency, cited the Communist Manifesto as one of his favorite books and thought the Mars rover landing was staged. These are not the opin...
Bill Maher is a loon
In case you had any doubt, allow this to remove it once and for all:
Anderson Cooper took a very different tack last night in trying to make sense of the Arizona shooting tragedy from the weekend. While many on Cable News were turning down the partisan Rhetoric, AC360 producers booked comedian Bill Maher, who was unafraid to compare the imagined mindset of alleged assailant Jared Loughner with Fox News host Glenn Beck, while at the same time calling for responsibility in the media. Huh?

Bill Maher says Glenn Beck's nutty and like the Giffords shooter, Jared Loughner
Bill Maher says Glenn Beck’s nutty and like the Giffords shooter, Jared Loughner. It is now open season beyond the shadow of a doubt on all Conservatives, at least from the standpoint of many liberals. Each day after the Gabrielle Giffords shooting has brought with it increasingly shocking Defamation by liberals looking to turn the murderous tragedy of Giffords’ shooting into a poorly calculated political opportunity. The latest shameless liberal to jump on the desperate attack...

News Flash: Most Americans Believe there is No Link Between Rhetoric and Reality!
The answer to the big question of why we behave the way we do was provided by two social scientists, Professors Donald Snygg and Arthur Combs, a long time ago. Their answer: Because we think we should behave that way . To wit: "All behavior is rational at the time of the behavior to the behaver." It's really that simple.
So the question of why Loughner shot 20 people at the Safeway Plaza in Tucson is not a mystery. He shot those unfortunate human beings, killing six of them, because he believ...
Enough AlreadyIt Is Time for Sheriff Dupnik to Go
Since he first opened his mouth on Saturday night to address the nation about the terrible shootings at a Tucson Safeway, Sheriff Clarence Dupnik has been inaccurate, deceptive, and completely biased in his handling of the case.
Sheriff Clarence Dupnik must resign.
Never have we witnessed a prominent public figure so inaccurately and viciously politicize a national tragedy like Sheriff Dupnik did this week. And in all of his statements he has either been wrong or misdirected. This bitter part...

As I predicted, this one has been a no-brainer from the instant that bumbling Pima County, Arizona Sheriff Clarence Dupnik first opened this trap blasting Sarah Palin, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, political debate and our democratic republician form of government in general as being solely responsible for the Safeway s...
Report: Loughner's Online Musings Bizarre, Sad
With all the evidence against the suspected Tucson shooter Jared Loughner, a Guilty verdict could still prove very difficult. Jan Crawford reports on the latest details of the case. Though Jared Lee Loughner's parents were "completely surprised" by the news of the Tucson shooting, former friends and classmates of Loughner's were not. Ben Tracy reports on the troubled past of Jared Lee Loughner. Doctors at Tucson's University Medical Center are increasingly optimistic about Ariz. Democratic Rep. ...
Can we retire the "if everyone has guns, no one will need guns" theory now?
Can we retire the "if everyone has guns, no one will need guns" theory now? Gosh, who could have predicted that the Tucson shootings would revive the Gun Control debate yet again? Instead of paying attention to the frustrating cuts to Mental Health services in Arizona and elsewhere, we have the Villagers all focused on guns and gun control. Conventional Village wisdom goes like this: In situations where a bad guy has a gun and is shooting everyone in sight, a good guy with a gun will ...
How We Enable Crimes of Insanity
The deranged expression on the face of Jared Lee Loughner in the Mug Shot released by the police—taken within hours after he allegedly killed six innocent people and wounded 14 more, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords—suggests that we may never fully understand whatever illness afflicts him. The law requires us to assess his mental state and motivations, but we might do better to analyze our own craziness.
That doesn't mean trying to determine whether events like the Tucson massacre...
Palin talks "accountability," doesn't take any
It was all very careless and confused. They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.
-- F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby
Sarah Palin is a Daisy Buchanan for our time -- a careless person, indeed, who tosses around words or images with nary a thought as to their effect, before she retreat...
The New Age Assassin
ABC has interviewed Zach Osler, a friend of the Tucson shooter Jared Lee Loughner. If you're trying to decipher Loughner's worldview, Osler's comments offer two important clues.
First: Osler flatly rejects the theory that the killer was driven by the political Rhetoric found on Cable News and AM radio. Loughner, he says,
did not watch TV. He disliked the news. He didn't listen to political radio. He didn't take sides. He wasn't on the left. He wasn't on the right.
Second: Loughner turns out to...
AZ sheriff knew in advance about Loughner
Even as Arizona Sheriff Clarence Dupnik launched into yet another rampage against Rush Limbaugh yesterday, new information has emerged showing that the sheriff knew in advance about Jared Lee Loughner and the danger he posed. According to a special report, Pima County Sheriff's Office records indicate that deputies had been called numerous times to the Loughner residence to address complaints by neighbors and others who were clearly frightened by Jared Loughner's growing anti-social, psych...
