Straddling the 2 George's, both hilarious AND acerbic.

This is the only guy posting there who begins to understand Carlin.<BR/><BR/>"You know, the thing about George is, I probably don’t agree with him on anything, but he has his own opinions, totally apart from traditional liberals or conservatives. At least he’s consistent. To paraphrase R. Lee Ermey, George has no bigotry. Everyone is equally worthless. He hates everyone, despises all. He’s a misanthrope. Which is cool, in a way. In fact, I’m quite certain the only human beings he likes are aborigines. He’s that hermit that in the 1800’s would go and live out in his hut and trap and fish and escape from society. He’s Thoreau with hostility. And I hate to admit it, but it’s kind of cool."<BR/><BR/>otcconanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-80977430404805158432007-10-25T21:46:00.000-07:002007-10-25T21:46:00.000-07:00If Maher should punch anyone, it's Tucker Carlson ...If Maher should punch anyone, it's Tucker Carlson or Tony Snow the next time they get on his show.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-29956696071706448502007-10-25T17:39:00.000-07:002007-10-25T17:39:00.000-07:00^I don't doubt he could have kicked asses if he ne...^I don't doubt he could have kicked asses if he needed to!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-60544580188858144422007-10-25T17:20:00.000-07:002007-10-25T17:20:00.000-07:00^ I wanted to see Maher throw a punch!^ I wanted to see Maher throw a punch!Undercover Black Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08704721024820668555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4486244714643027014.post-47167762993190916782007-10-25T16:57:00.000-07:002007-10-25T16:57:00.000-07:00^ Speaking of Maher's show, did you see the last e...^ Speaking of Maher's show, did you see the last episode where he helped throw out some rabble rousers?
