Bills mistake during monologue

Please inform Bill that it wasn't Rush who said that statement about Al Qaeda and Obama in the monologue. It was a british reporter.

Bill, you really need a new 'skirt' on your show, a blonde, funny, sexy, smart -- Alexandra Wentworth. Yeah, before you take your extended vacation ... put her on and see how your audience reacts.
Ask her if George uses the 'Pet Stairs' to get up on the bed...
Oh, and while we're talking about guests, how about having my former classmate on - Rich Clarke, oops, Richard A. Clarke. Yep, he was a year ahead of me at Boston Latin School. A cute skinny guy, curly red hair, freckles -- not your typical Jewish kid. He's brilliant and loves to tell the truth.
C'mon Bill, a skirt and a truth-telling fegalah (oops, is this Don't Tell, Don't Ask, Don't Want To Know That...)
Last thing: If we melt all the fat out of Rush Limbaugh, we'd have enough biofuel to light up Washington for at least one night.
Cheers,
Mark

It is great that Obama is representing America so eloquently and with such class and civility. I wonder though if he is really representing America. He represents ME, but I'm not so sure I'm America. I am worried that America really is Bill O'Reilly-evil and Sarah Palin-ignorant. What if my fears are well founded? Can we put all who fall in that ignorant and/or evil category in Texas and let them secede??

1. I am a Christian
2. I voted no to banning gay marriage
3. My beliefs tell me that I am not the judge and jury
Those who voted to ban gay marriage quote the bible. If that being the case, why have they not petitioned to ban a divorced person from getting remarried? My evidence below:
Luke 16:18 Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultrey, and the man who marries a divorced woman commits adultrey.
1 Corinthians 6:8-10 Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders.
One of the ten commandments is thou shall not commit adultrey. Where are the bible quoters that voted yes to ban gay marriage? Why are there no marches against second, third, fourth, etc marriages.
It is terribly hypocritical!!!
I live by the words that is also a quote from the bible. Take the log out of your own eye before you attempt to take the sliver out of your neighbor's eye.
My own words: When my troubles cease, take on someone elses.

Dear Bill and Panel,
Why do many of the conservatives not value the future of earth on a timescale longer than their own existence? Do they believe Jesus died for their environmental sins too?

What would happen if Obama ended our overseas empire? Could we keep our guns and stop abortion?

shouldn't "change" start locally?

i live in sleepy little Rising Sun Maryland where the mayor and commissioners approved twice as many homes as their water and sewer infrastructure could handle until the state slapped a mortorium on their dumb asses. Now the town wants "stimulus" to help encourage their 'sprawl'. Do they deserve any obama bucks?

Mr. Maher,
first, thank you for the movie Religulous. You put on film what I've been saying for years.
I've noticed there are not alot of Conservatives on your panel anymore. Is this because you do not want them, or because most will not come on?
I would have loved to see your debate against Anne Coulter.

The people of the Middle East do not value education.
The defer to expensive clothes.
They are stuck is a sad, ancient, flat-earth rut

Dear Bill and Panel,
Many religious people are allowing the world to implode because of their belief that Jesus will come back and fix the planet. Shouldn't religious people be more like babysitters who want to impress the parents who come home to find that everything is in perfect working order?

What is it about a trip to the middle east that doesn't involve a visit to Israel, but does involve a trip to a concentration camp, that folks like Rush or Hannity don't understand?

Bill,
Knowing how much you and many others support Israel, how do you feel about Obama's strong statement against Israel's plan to continue to develop settlements in the West Bank?

I have NEVER seen an anti-abortionist with a house full of pregnant women,
paying for everything that the pregnant women need.
They are HORRIBLE people.
