"I have a better idea. Let’s have an amnesty — from the left and the
right — on every made-up, fake, totally insincere, playacted hurt,
insult, slight and affront. Let’s make this Sunday the National Day of
No Outrage. One day a year when you will not find some tiny thing
someone did or said and pretend you can barely continue functioning
until they apologize.
If that doesn’t work, what about this: If you see or hear something you
don’t like in the media, just go on with your life. Turn the page or
flip the dial or pick up your roll of quarters and leave the booth."- Bill Maher
and
"Can we please stop the fake 'offended' routine. [Please] explain what was allegedly offensive about DeNiro's joke." - Ann Coulter
Please don't think you've stumbled upon the wrong blog. I can't stand Bill Maher for multiple reasons, the biggest being he's just not that funny to me. But that doesn't mean I want him taken off HBO. I just choose not to watch his show.
He's right, though. Coulter's right, too. They're both basically saying the same thing. Imagine that. Two of the people that many see as the most polarizing members of either party agree on an issue. There's hope for this country after all.

Couldn't agree more.
You couldn't pay me to watch Bill Maher but I have no desire to quiet speech I don't like or agree with. I just don't watch it. Simple as that.
Obama's staggering hypocrisy with Sandra Fluke vs Conservative women is annoying, but truthfully when is he NOT a hypocrite?
Yawn.
I couldn't agree more...about Bill Maher (I think he's repulsive) but that doesn't mean he's not actually right for once.
Despite having a BA in poly sci, I hate politics; but so much could be accomplished if people stopped whining and put their big kid shorts on :P
