When live “comedy” television shows are produced, especially in front of a live television audience, those in attendance don’t always get the joke or the punchlines unfortunately fall flat. But not to worry. B-roll shots of the audience cracking up and audio laugh tracks can be easily edited-in to make the host and, in the case of a show like HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher”, selected panelists look like all are in full uproarious agreement. Conversely, audio groans and boos can also be added in post production to make those chosen look real bad.

The Coronavirus has taken that audience support dynamic totally out of the mix so someone like Bill Maher now has to enter his own forum without the benefit of post-production cosmetics. When he interviewed Texas Republican Congressman Dan Crenshaw, a former United States Navy SEAL officer, Maher showed the nation just how flatfooted he really was when only armed with liberal talking points and no like-minded panelists and studio audience to laugh on cue.

After this episodic, you know Bill Maher is secretly hoping for the #LockDown to end so things can go back to normal, and in the case of “Real Time”, loaded in his favor.

Last Saturday’s HBO program was no exception.

What Bill Maher closed with, regarding Democrats getting over their “Trump fatigue”, is very important.

If the Democrats can do that and win, this country might stop being as divided as it is, because underneath maybe we’re not so divided.
— Real Time with Bill Maher, 8/3/19

He’s basically implying that had the American people had the good sense to elect Hillary Clinton, there would be no real visible division in the United States. His closing remark could also be construed as a veiled threat.

Do you think there would’ve been any kind of potentially violent conservative Republican #Resistance had Hillary won? Probably not.

Do you think a United States congressman and others would’ve been shot at a baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia by a Bernie Sanders supporter? That’s up for grabs but probably not.

Do you think conservatives would’ve called for the denial of service and harassed members of Hillary’s administration in restaurants or held loud protests in front of their homes? That’s not really in the Republican decorum playbook.

Do you think, given what we’d never know, conservatives and Republicans would be allowed to cast any kind of question as to the legitimacy of Hillary’s presidency? We’d probably see very few “Not my president” signs on election night or after and the media would suggest we get a life.

Do you think #Antifa members would’ve found something else to concentrate on while living at home off their parents? Probably so as watching anime and playing video games takes a lot less effort than getting out of bed to take the streets.

Do you think celebrities would be happier since they didn’t have to leave the country as promised, even though they never do when the Republican wins? Maybe their publicists would have to find other reasons to make anything all about them.

If Donald Trump is reelected, we can all justifiably expect more of the incivility the left has to offer. Trump’s nominees can be smeared and/or falsely accused, federal law enforcement officials may again attempt to undo the Will of the People using all the tools at their disposal, his cabinet members (and Republicans in general) can be harassed, students can be frightened into acts of defiance including violence, Antifa can get on with 2.0, Democrat politicians can declare half the nation as “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic—you name it”, online platforms can practice political discrimination against anyone not 100% liberal, senators can be violently attacked on their front lawns, and the media can continue to shed any notion of impartiality, let alone sanity.

So, we’re only a divided nation when a Republican (especially like Donald Trump) wins but we’re united when a Democrat wins with that subtle “Let the wookie win” warning hanging over your head.

Got’cha, Bill.

Everyone’s going nuts over Bill Maher’s latest use of the phrase “house nigga” on his Real Time show on HBO.

Daily Beast Bill Maher Drops the N-Word on ‘Real Time,’ Sen. Ben Sasse Laughs

Some liberals are the first to applaud the use of racial epithets when it politically and/or financially benefits them. For example, the movie Pulp Fiction won the Palme d’Or at the 1994 Cannes Film Festival, despite its very liberal use of the word “nigger”. In fact writer, producer Quentin Tarantino has made quite a lot of money for Harvey Weinstein’s Miramax Films with his exponential use of that word. Has anyone boycotted Tarantino or told Weinstein to avoid any Democrat Party fundraisers over their use of the word, no.

Maher has been cavalier with his use of the n-word in the past and survived because it was in the context of smearing Republicans.

Now, if you take Malcolm X’s definition of the term “house negro”, Bill Maher was absolutely correct in his embrace of the title. Yes, we know Maher’s a Libertarian on paper but we also see how he rolls and with whom.

Bill Maher took to last night’s Real Time to verbally shred the “liberal purists” for not voting for Hillary Clinton over Donald Trump in the election.
— Fansided, 5/6/17

Think about it: Liberal Democrats work in the fields and they’re consistently unhappy at their lot in life. The DNC’s activities to abort the rise of Bernie Sanders created a rift that stopped Hillary Clinton from unifying the party prior to the 2016 election.

Then you have the house nigga, Bill Maher.

He lives in the best part of massah’s house in Los Angeles. He eats near massah. He goes to events near massah’s house and vacations where massah vacations. He even gives his own money to massah’s events so he can ultimately keep in his good graces and keep his show on massah’s channel. And when the field negroes get mad at massah, Maher finds Republicans he can bring on Real Time to publicly humiliate in front of the field negroes and massah.

Don’t get mad at Bill Maher’s honesty and he apologized only because his meal ticket was at risk. In true liberal fashion, all that was left is the historical whitewash.

Bill Maher apologized on Saturday for using the N-word during his HBO show the previous night. The network also said in a statement to THR the use of the word would be edited out of future airings of that Real Time episode.
— HBO statement to The Hollywood Reporter, 6/3/17

Bill Maher told us, not only who he truly is, but what his purpose to the Democrat Party is. He may not be a registered Democrat, but he can come in the front door to liberal massah’s house as he’s serving his purpose just fine.

With that, how many others on the left in academia, entertainment, and the media fit the “house nigga” definition…?

But let’s not forget, Bill Maher lives and works in Los Angeles (Hollywood) and works in the entertainment industry where screwing the young has a long tradition and the powerful usually get away with it.

People don’t care about sex.

Monica Lewinsky was an adult. Foley went after boys. Actually, I wasn’t terribly taken aback by Foley. He was like a college professor, in a job where every year there’s a new wave of fresh meat. He would look over the field and decide. He probably had pretty good radar to know which kids were amenable. From the evidence we have, he tried to do something only after they were out of the page program. If a 19-year-old gay kid wants to go out with an older guy, why not? The guys his own age are probably dumb doofuses.

Look, I’m a 51-year-old man, and I go out with girls in their early 20s. I’d be hypocritical if I said it’s ridiculous for a gay man to do that. I’m very libertarian about love. I’m the only guy I’ve ever heard who defends Mary Kay Letourneau.

I believe in the double standard. If a 28-year-old male teacher is screwing a 13-year-old girl, that’s a crime. But with Debra Lafave (another teacher who had sex with a student) screwing her 14-year-old boy student, the crime is that we didn’t get it on videotape. Was he being taken advantage of? I wish I had been taken advantage of like that. What a memory she gave him! I would think he’s a champion among his friends. Are you kidding? Even with Michael Jackson — I’m not defending him, but I do believe his case has a nuance that makes it different from other child molestation cases–not that I’m saying he necessarily did it, but come on. Jackson’s worst accusers never said he did anything brutal, like bend them over a table and ram them–you know, like a priest. The worst they said he did was a little grabby-grabby under the covers. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a crime. You shouldn’t be able to grab a kid that age, but when I heard about it, all I could think of was my being brutally beaten up on the playground when I was 12–a kid punching me in the face while another held me down. If I could go back and trade that experience for being gently masturbated by a pop star, I would do it in a New York second. Frankie Valli could jerk me off. Bobby Sherman could. Marvin Gaye could.
— Bill Maher, Playboy interview, 4/17/07

Most people in the business wouldn’t survive statements like the one above and going back a decade, but again we are talking about liberal Hollywood where standards only apply to those they disagree with.

If Bill Maher worked for a channel that had to produce programming advertisers felt comfortable paying to put ads on, he’d probably have been fired like he was from ABC for basically saying we brought 9/11 on ourselves. Again, as most cable subscribers are subsidizing channels like HBO, their employees will say whatever they want, produce whatever they want and will face no recrimination.

Then again, no one believes Hollywood lives in the same world we do so elitist adults screwing children is something only the vast majority of us will have to answer for.

Sorry. It’ll never happen.

Aside from sports and news channels, many channels would be in serious financial peril if their customers had “choice” but are saved by the very progressive, wealth-distributive approach to entertainment. Basically, you pay regardless of the quality or value to you of the programming.

While you run those cable remote laps and click past channels you never have (nor ever will stop to watch), remember you’re still paying for it. Production companies, and some of their icky “actors” and “comics” will continue to be handsomely paid, no matter how provocative, partisan, juvenile, racist, unfunny, gory, unoriginal, and intentionally insulting they decide to be as long as We the Consumer have no choice but to pay for their cable and satellite channels, whether we watch them or not.

Imagine if we only paid for the channels we wanted?

With the cheapest cable package (leaving out the obscure), you have A&E, American Movie Classics, Animal Planet, Azteca America, Baby First, Baby TV, BBC America, Believer’s Voice of Victory Network, Black Entertainment Television, Bloomberg TV, Boomerang, Bravo, BYU Television, Cartoon Network, CBS Sports Network, CCTV (China), Chiller, Christian Television Network, Church Channel, Cine Latino, Cine Sony, Cinemax (East and West), Classic Arts Showcase, CNBC, CNN, CNN En Espanol, Comedy Central, Cooking, Country Music Television, C-SPAN, C-SPAN2, C-SPAN3, Daystar, De Pelicula, De Pelicula Clasico, Discovery, Discovery En Espanol, Discovery Familia, Discovery Family Channel, Disney Channel, (East, West, Jr., XD), DIY, E! Entertainment Television, Encore (East, West, HD, Action, Black, Classic, Family, Suspense, Westerns), ESPN (Alternate, Deportes, 2, News, U), Eternal Word Network, Food Network, Fox Business News, Fox Deportes, Fox Movie Channel, Fox News, Fox Sports (1, 2), Free Speech TV, Fuse, Fusion, FX, FXX, Galavision, Game Show Network, GetTV, Golf Channel, Hallmark Channel, Hallmark Movies and Mysteries, HBO (East, West, 2, Comedy, Family, Latino, Signature, Zone), Headline News, History, History En Espanol, Home and Garden Television, Home Shopping Network (1 and 2), Impact Network, Independent Film Channel, Inspiration Film Network, Investigation Discovery, ION, Lifetime, Lifetime Movie Network, MLB Extra Innings, MLB Network, MSNBC, MTV (2, Live), NASA, Nat Geo, Nat Geo Wild, NBA League Pass, NBA TV, NBC Sports Network, NBC Universo, NewsMax, NFL Network, NHL Center Ice, NHL Network (Alternate), Nick Jr., Nickeldeon / Nick at Night (East and West), Nicktoons, Oprah Winfrey Network, Outdoor Channel, Oxygen, Pursuit, QVC, QVC+, Reelz, RFD-TV, Russia Today, Science, Smithsonian Channel, Spike, Sundance, Syfy, TeenNick, Teleformula, Telemundo, Telemundo Oesta, Tennis Channel, The Learning Channel, The Movie Channel (East, West, Xtra), The Blaze, Travel Channel, Trinity Broadcasting Network, TruTV, TBS, TNT, TV Land, Univision (Deportes, Este, Foro TV, Oeste, Novelas), USA Network, Velocity, VH1, VH1 Classic, Weather Channel, WGN, Women’s Entertainment, and many more.

With that….

If the average family could choose ONLY the channels they wanted, think about how many you’d actually deem worthy of paying for? Personally, we’d keep ESPN (only for NFL pregame shows, Sunday Night Baseball, and Monday Night Football), NFL Network, C-SPAN, Food Network, Fox Business, American Movie Classics, Turner Movie Classics, Home and Garden and that’s about it: a couple handfuls of channels we’d watch on a consistent basis and the rest wouldn’t be missed.

What really sucks is that we’re forced to pay for channels many of us NEVER watch and some we couldn’t be paid to watch. There are many channels that include what is referred to as “soft porn”, so-called documentaries on “family” channels that are nothing less than blatant liberal indoctrination aimed at children, kids’ network with obnoxious know-it-all punks and stupid adults, and numerous reality formats that would not be in existence if not subsidized by millions of captive subscribers.

If ESPN were solely reliant on advertisers, many would hear from those who identify with Curt Schilling’s common sense assessment of the proper, traditional use of bathrooms. ESPN might have had to think twice before making such a snap judgment in firing him.

But the entertainment industry is devious and liberal, they love forcing the public to do things against their best instincts, pushing their ideology unchallenged, and best of all: getting us to pay for it whether we want to or not.

If we ever get “choice”, we will all save a lot of money and the intolerant, politically correct may pay the price for a change!
