Bill Maher on Bargain Karma

The “Real Time” host takes on Mother Teresa’s doubts, Obama’s “blackness” and the high cost of low morals in our bargain-crazed culture: “Let’s have a war and cut taxes, what could go wrong? Let’s give mortgages to the homeless. Sounds like a plan! Let’s buy toys from a communist police state, you just know they’ll put in a little extra love.”

Watch it:

Just give me someone who uses the ability to reason.
Faith is like the wind, it blows in whatever direction benefits the faithful.

SEE THE FAITHFUL HAVE NO FAITH.
And the higher they get in the faith the less they have.

Way to go, “THE YOUNG ARE HERE”! Good for you, never stop letting them know that. NEVER, even if like me you DO get old.

And just think, Bush had a big dollar hired brain thinking up all this stuff!
All this BS was shoved at us by the Christians and served to us on the Bible.
Thanks to Bill Mahr for all he does to help educate the flocks.
