    “democracy is a function of the redistribution of wealth”…um equal distribution of wealth is the the foundation of Marxism. Karl Marx is not a U.S. founding father.

  2. jazzbo66zz says:

    Miller lost his sense of humor when he became an ideologue. It seemes to me that he is neither as literate or as sane as Mahr. He tends to see forces embodied in individuals as being ahistorical and comes up short on the perception of structure. Most of the abstractions Mahr jokes about go right by Miller. For Miller politics is a measure of individual rectitude or wickedness. Miller seems to have no idea that democracy is a function of the equal distribution of wealth and power not the reverse

    Ichiro Ozawa of Japan is just Hitler. In Japan today, the Democratic Party (Nazi Party actually) are going through the gag. We would have lost the public an opportunity to speak freely. If, if people are interested in the maintenance of democracy, politicians in Japan (such as Ichiro Ozawa) that focus on the brutality of Japan want to help now.I hope not allow the Hoover Moratorium.

    Miller is a poopoo mouth nazi!

  5. Spike20TRILLION says:

    I like Bill Maher. Sometimes I like him, there are times I dislike him!! Seeing this upload I like him again. I don’t agree with 90% of the things he says, but I do agree with him on this country has become so politically correct. And It goes both ways not, just liberals are giving a hard time for they’re liberal beliefs, but conservatives aswell.

    Who doesn’t?

  7. MongoloidBabyUSA says:

    Ron Paul attracts a lot of real creeps and bigots

  8. MongoloidBabyUSA says:

    he has a daily radio show that has the same views as Rush,

  9. MongoloidBabyUSA says:

    Yeah, he acts like O’Reilly’s chorus. It almost seems like he is mouthing half the stuff so he can throw the same simple minded crap that all the other neo-con talk radio types. The political points of his radio show are so banal and typical

  10. bucnomore11 says:

    by arrogant did he mean elitist views? but i dont know wtf an arrogant view could be

  11. bucnomore11 says:

    I’ve seen miller speak out against the imus firing.

    but jimmysmers likes to pull evidence out of his ass. notice how bad it stinks

  12. bucnomore11 says:

    joined fox? he contributes once a week for like 3 mins… lol

  13. bucnomore11 says:

    he used to be a libertarian. he still holds on to a couple of those views but for most part took a big leap to the left

  14. bucnomore11 says:

    I have no problems with one choosing to be a vegan and wearing black. i didnt even know they wore black.

    What makes them dangerous is they are a bankrolled org. that tries to push radical ideals on the rest of the population that either diminish invidual liberties or threaten our standard of living or both.

  15. bucnomore11 says:

    Lol you have no evidence that suggests this. You just pull it out of your ass. You absolutely have no clue what goes on.

  16. Kensingtonlondon says:

    So you agree total freedom of speech does not exist end of story.

  17. DidyaM says:

    I love Bill Maher’s voice..it’s so calming

  18. xxironballzxx says:

    i miss the old dennis never missed a show when i was a teenager.

  19. fakeplasticme says:

    There are laws with respect to harassment, stalking, public nuisance, and mischief…those are actions, not words. Words are one thing, ACTIONS are something else. People outside my house would be subject to trespass laws.

    Also, don’t confuse criminal law with civil law. Libelous or fraudulent speech is a civil matter, not a criminal one. Anti-free speech people want the saying of certain things to be made punishable in the criminal courts…I say that’s dead wrong.

  20. Kensingtonlondon says:

    @fakeplasticme No if you have total freedom of speech it takes away peoples freedom not be be harassed or goaded.
    Would you allow people to right to shout abuse at you all night outside your house. No, so in other words there restrictions on freedom of speech. You can be sued for libel, so in other words another restriction. There is no such thing as total freedom of speech. If i i claim my product can cure cancer t\when it cannot i will get sued. There is no total freedom of speech,.

  21. surnamematt says:

    that’s the way democrats and republicans should talk, calm and respectful

  22. slantedeskimo says:

    @hypermonkey24 Exactly, all ‘news’ networks in this country do is reaffirm that which you already believe/agree with.

    There’s nothing wrong with Miller supporting the republicans, but the difference between Miller on HBO, and Miller on Fox is that he used to bring up specific legislation and the like to criticize. Now that he’s on Fox it’s basically a mindset of ‘everyone blue is a pussy and wrong’ kinda mentality without actually dissecting what he disagrees with.

  23. maddingo12 says:

    Excuse me, do you know me personally? How do you know anything about my politics? What? Because I don’t agree with the neo-conservative, evangelical, crass populism shit which dominates the Republican Party? I’m not a conservative because of that? Ron Paul is probably the last of the true, old school conservatives: Small government and personal freedom. The GOP no longer stands for that, the GOP stands for legislating “morality” and funding nation building projects abroad. Makes me fucking sick

  24. hypermonkey24 says:

    Libertarian conservative my ass.

    Dude FOX NEWS has a place man. All the rest of them are tainted with a liberal bias.

    Dude there is nothing wrong with an entertainer supporting a political party. I think it is naive to assume that he doesn’t pay attention to “the facts”.

    He is a comedian and a “political hack” if you want to call him that.

  25. maddingo12 says:

    You don’t think FOX news does not edit or review his rants on their channel? Or that Miller does not write his rants according to what they want to hear? lol c’mon!
