Rush and Beck and Rubes and Their Money

The Con Artists - Limbaugh, Beck, Palin, Coulter - Bill Maher quote  :   http://mariopiperni.com

The more complete Maher quote:

“And con men, like Rush and Beck, are one reason the Republicans are in such dire straits today because they don’t care about winning elections, they care about separating rubes from their money. They’ve discovered there is a fortune to be made by keeping a small portion of America under the illusion that they are always under attack from Mexicans, ACORN, or Planned Parenthood, or gays, or takers, global warming hoaxers. It doesn’t matter. They don’t want a majority, they want a mailing list. A list of the kind of gullible Honey Boo Boos out there who think there is a war on Christmas and that the socialist policies of our Kenyan president have been so disastrous that the end of the world is coming.”

If you missed Maher’s New Rules last week, take a listen. This one is a classic.

    Instead of being iconic,these swindlers decided that the con game was more profitable. I hope those sheepish followers will do eactly what Fox did and throw them out on their ass which is what they deserve. America has to stop enriching the adulterers,boogie men,thought twisters and baloney venders. I am hopeful that Americans will choose iconic provokers like Barack Hussein Obama.

    Let us grace laws like 1) gun safety for the sake of our kids 2) gay marriage 3) balanced budgets with rich paying their fair share 4) tax money in tax havens 5) immigration whch will increase taxes 6) violence to women act 7) Defy states that reduce services for abortion. We can be better than that.

    “It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled”. Maybe said by Mark Twain.

    The rubes will never admit to being gullible. They will just double down. It’s easier than admitting they were stupid, ESPECIALLY with rational friends and relatives having tried to convince them otherwise.

    Bill Maher tells it like it is — he cuts right through all the phoney, baloney bullcrap and gives us some great laughs in the process. Love it!
