Bill Maher gets the honor he deserves


Last week during his TV show, Real Time With Bill Maher, the host, along with guests Congressman Barney Frank (D-Mass.) and former Republican congressman and current MSNBC host Joe Scarborough were discussing the hateful "Huffington Post" comments that were posted on a thread about a suicide bombing that took place near the vicinity of Vice President Dick Cheney while he was in Afganistan last week.

From Fox News:

Frank earned applause when he quoted bloggers saying the bomb was wasted when it missed Cheney. Maher asked the panelists whether it was wrong for blog host Arianna Huffington to remove the comments.

Quoting the blog, Maher said, "I have zero doubt that if Dick Cheney was not in power, people wouldn't be dying needlessly tomorrow."

Asked by Frank if Maher believed that sentiment, the host replied, "I'm just saying if he did die, other people, more people would live. That’s a fact."

Maher, pictured above while in a Halloween costume mocking the accidental death of the crocodile hunter, Steve Irwin, received a reward for his anti-American efforts, as Pam at Blogmeister USA reports. But he may have to travel to a cave to pick it up.
