Liberals are patting each other on the back after their great victory over… liberal Bill Maher. They got him to apologize for using words reserved ONLY for African-Americans in rap songs.
Bill Maher apologized Saturday for using a racial slur to describe himself as a house slave during a live segment for his HBO talk show.
Maher’s comment during his discussion with Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Nebraska, was quickly and broadly criticized after it aired on the comedian’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” show Friday night.
HBO said the remark was “completely inexcusable and tasteless” and the segment would not be re-aired.
“Friday nights are always my worst night of sleep because I’m up reflecting on the things I should or shouldn’t have said on my live show,” Maher said in a statement Saturday. “Last night was a particularly long night as I regret the word I used in the banter of a live moment. The word was offensive and I regret saying it and am very sorry.”
SO it was lack of sleep!!?
If lack of sleep caused you to say the n-word, Right Scoop’s slave-driving on this blog would have pushed me into multiple n-word offenses!!!
I just don’t think this is such a big deal. Liberals are screeching as if this is the worst thing ever and proves that America is racist. Whatever. He clearly meant it as a joke and not out of any malice. Trust me on this – Bill Maher’s jokes aren’t causing blacks to murder each other in the streets. And that’s a much bigger problem than jokes…
