Bill Maher defends ripping Left for its 'goofy sh--': 'I'm a hero at FOX these days'
Fox News
"Real Time" host Bill Maher closed his show Friday night by slamming the left's silence on what he called the "goofy s---" that is making Democrats look bad.
"Now, some people think this means I've changed. I assure you, I have not. I am still the same unmarried, childless, pot-smoking libertine I always was," Maher told his audience. "Let's get this straight. It's not me who's changed, it's the left who is now made up of a small contingent who've gone mental and a large contingent who refuse to call them out for it, but I will." "I'm a hero at Fox these days, which shows just how much liberals have their head up their a--." "If you do goofy s---, wherever you are in the spectrum, I'm going to make fun of you because that's where the gold is." "It's not my fault that the party of FDR and JFK is turning into the party of LOL and WTF." "California just passed a law requiring large retailers to have a non-gendered toy section. … We need a law for that? Do you have to inject yourselves into everything?" "Democrats no longer possess the common sense to understand that not every problem in the world can be fixed with a regulation."
"That's why I'm a hero at Fox these days, which shows just how much liberals have their head up their a-- because if they really thought about it, they would have made me a hero on their media," Maher said. "But that can't happen in this ridiculous new era of mind-numbing partisanship, where if I keep it real about the nonsense in the Democratic Party, it makes me an instant hero to Republicans."
