While flipping channels on the t.v. I ran across Bill Maher on a talk show. This cracked me up: "Michele Bachmann is for people who find Sarah Palin too intellectual." |

Hahahahaha! That's a good analysis, though. It frightens me to think of the people who listen to her because they identify with her..."she's just like us".

I like Mahr, but his calling Palin a "twat" was just rude and out of line. Fuck you, Bill.

I agree to a point, but think of the moolah that Ann Coulter et al have made with their crude insults. Humor and commentary are very rough these days. And as much as I liked George Carlin, I think he was unnecessarily crude on occasion. Besides, sometimes I think of Palin as a 'twat' myself when she makes a spectacularly stupid remark, although I don't have the audience that Maher does.

"And as much as I liked George Carlin, I think he was unnecessarily crude on occasion." Steer clear of Frankie Boyle and Doug Stanhope then. |

I once went to a George Carlin concert in Pittsburgh (I want to say Brain Droppings tour, mid- to late 1990s) and was pretty put off by it. I love Carlin, generally, but I guess I was only previously exposed to his HBO specials and the like. In concert, the language and excess began to get in the way of his insights, which is what I liked best about him. As for Palin, I think calling her a twat is totally out of line. Its an egregious insult to vaginas everywhere to be compared to her. |

Considering some of the egregiously stupid things Palin has said and done calling her a twat was a kindness.
