What did David Carr say during overtime that made him say "did I just say that?" I didn't quite catch it. Good show overall, it was pretty funny.

Bill was talking about how in NJ, it's not appropriate for politicians to dumbing poo poo down like saying how it's none of anyone's business whether I believe in evolution or not. It's okay in Kansas, Missouri, etc...

Carr asked him why he's ragging on Christie so much.

Bill Maher:
It's because of what I just said. I take it very personally that I got a nice public school education there and now there is a governor of that state saying things that I never imagined a governor of that state would say. Maybe it's false pride but I think New Jersey is more sophisticated than other states because I'm from there.

Carr:
I think if it's Kansas, Missouri ,no big deal, that's the dance of the low sloping foreheads, the middle places, right?

Pelosi:
It's okay. It's HBO, not TV. It's HBO.

Carr:
Did I just say that aloud?.

Bill really does get terrible audiences. He does blame them for hating some lovely jokes too much, but if you can't get a group to chant USA after a pro America discussion, what the gently caress. I'm not even American but he wants to retake patriotism from the right? Not a great way

Yeah it felt pointless. He/she is terribly uncharismatic and a boring guest. As much as I hate her, Ann Coulter is the best guest in a while. She's a humorless bitch normally but on Bill's show she seems to enjoy the sarcastic fun and attention.

The first half of this episode drove me up a wall. Two rightwing batty women interrupting everyone to spout half-baked ideology does not make a good show.

"The government does not create jobs!"
"Really? During the Great Depression the government didn't create jobs?"
"Ok yes... but they weren't job jobs!"

Ann Coulter is a loving troll, physically and mentally. She's the Jan Brady of politics, stamping her feet and shaking her head when people stop giving her attention for two seconds. Her politics are idiotic but her personality is even worse.



ugghhh Bill, come onnnnn, whaaaaat

edit: holy gently caress she claims on Overtime that we bombed Egypt and forced out President Mubarak? She is beyond stupid.

I got a good laugh at the Ann Cooter bit in Overtime that seemingly went right over her head....her constantly laughing head...

This week was a mixed bag overall---one of these days Bill needs to put a hidden cam in the Green Room before he hangs the show up just to show the world exactly how some of these folk play it off camera.

Chaz Bono was a waste of time. Maher and Coulter are too chummy. He wouldn't let anyone else come one there and spew the garbage she's allowed to. He made Chris Hayes look tough.

Oh my god, Ann Coulter has such a frightening laugh. It's like robotic, disingenuous and immediately makes you uncomfortable. And it's constant. Why is it that the high-profile right wing women have this strange laugh?


Oh yeah, and I think Ann Coulter has her own groupies or they loaded up that audience with nutjobs because there's no way the average Real Time audience would be cheering and supporting Coulter and whatever points she was making.

Episode was difficult to watch, mainly because I watch Real Time to escape the Ann Coulters of everyday life.

And yeah, Coulter definitely had some plants in that audience. There'd be a single guy yelling and clapping after everything she said, regardless of how idiotic, sensible or coherent it sounded. It was almost amazing watching her cleverly evade reason like water from a duck's back, and it seems like her particular brand of insanity is becoming more pervasive in this country :(

But you can't really fault Bill for taking it easy on her. If he eviscerated every right-wing nutjob on his show there'd be a straight liberal panel on week in and week out.

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
I can't tell if Ann was being serious or just trolling or both.

Also I did some slight research on here (since I've hardly heard of her before, and some of the poo poo she says is unbelievable.

"In 1960, whites were 90 percent of the country. The Census Bureau recently estimated that whites already account for less than two-thirds of the population and will be a minority by 2050. Other estimates put that day much sooner. One may assume the new majority will not be such compassionate overlords as the white majority has been. If this sort of drastic change were legally imposed on any group other than white Americans, it would be called genocide. Yet whites are called racists merely for mentioning the fact that current immigration law is intentionally designed to reduce their percentage in the population."

I mean what the gently caress? Should I get mad at this? Laugh at this? Face palm this?

She is a polemicist, arguing for things she doesn't believe just to get people angry. I dismiss her as an intellectual and put the bread in the oven to make dinner.

Whites are afraid of being the minority in this country because they know how terribly they treat minorities and are afraid they'll get what they gave. True story.

Was anyone else unable to see Overtime tonight? Wouldn't work for me. Certainly was a good episode, pretty funny and insightful overall. The nutrition guy in the interview segment was a little awkward. He was having trouble answering Bill's leading questions.

Wow. I am watching it right now and this interview with the old "i don't eat meat" guy is horrible. This guy has no sense of humor and he is totally eccentric and weird. He seems to be missing totally normal cues to let the audience in on what he is all about and maybe get them on his side.
