Default Maher: Why Didn’t Rush Die from Drugs Instead of Heath Ledger?

Don't really like using Newsbusters as a source, but they DO have the video (which seems to be in a link I can't format...Couldn't find it on YouTube)...

Maher: Why Didn’t Rush Die from Drugs Instead of Heath Ledger?

Quote:
The hatred from supposedly compassionate and open-minded Hollywoodans is something to behold, isn't it?

After all, just imagine despising a radio talk show host so much that you would suggest, on national television, that he should die of a drug overdose.

Alas, such was the case Friday evening when HBO's Bill Maher actually asked guest P.J. O'Rourke, who was talking about Rush Limbaugh's use of the prescription drug OxyContin.

Quote:
BILL MAHER, HOST: Why is it, I was asking Amy this, why is it that the Republican establishment, I guess it is, have so much disdain, not just for McCain, but for the other guy who's still in it...Huckabee? They don't like either one of them.

P.J. O'ROURKE, WRITER: Well, I think a couple of things are going on. It's the it's the twilight of the radio loud-mouth, you know? I knew it from the moment the fat guy…

MAHER: …You mean Rush Limbaugh and Sean..?

O'ROURKE: …from the moment the fat guy refused to share his drugs (audience laughter). I was, you know…he never called, he never wrote. I'm ready to party, you know, come on! No, I think it's kind of over for those people. So…

MAHER: Right, you mean the OxyContin that he was on?

O'ROURKE: Yeah, exactly. I mean, that stuff's good!

MAHER: Why couldn't, uh, why couldn't have he croaked from it instead of Heath Ledger? (small audience groans)

O'ROURKE: Yeah, yeah.
Don't you just love it when you disagree with someone so much politically that you wish death upon them?...

Kinda like when Huffington Post took down their comments section when too many members were disappointed Dick Cheney wasn't killed a few months ago in Pakistan...

Ahhh...Gotta love the peaceniks who hate the Republicans for defending our nation in a way they don't like...

Allah is pleased...
