They aren't up in arms about the comment...they are up in arms about double standards...

Myopic to assume otherwise...

I do believe that double standard is starting to crumble

I do too. But it is more palatable when it's directed at such an arrogant douche like Bill Maher
when people(liberal or conservative) are fighting the good fight against SJWs, radical Islam, and PC culture they're ok in my book.

I'm bummed he apologized

I hate Bill Maher a lot but I watched the clip and it wasn't that bad. Certainly not intended to be racist. Republicans getting up in arms about this are just as bad as the snowflakes



It's clear to anyone whose brain isn't infected with SJW disease that he wasn't being racist. People on the right might point out how a simple apology for inappropriate language while everyone acknowledges the good intentions of anyone who is conservative saying what Maher said wouldn't even remotely go over. The hysteria and character assassination and calls for career destruction would be intense.

Why did he apologize? Was it in a sarcastic tone? I know he's had a bit before on not apologizing because it isn't sincere.

Bill disappointed me by apologizing. His idol George Carlin is spinning in his grave.

I have not yet figured out how CNN and MSNBC are going to be able to blame this on NMPOTUS.

The biggest thing in his favor is that the steaming worthless turd Sharpton is on him. Sharpton is such a steaming pile of corrupt, race baiting, no credibility, lying piece of shite (apologies to shite) that for a piece of shite like Sharpton to attack you should be viewed as a badge of honor.

Now if we can just get blacks to stop saying the N word all the damn time, then maybe it won’t be stuck in our heads. Later Ma N-Words!!!! (ending with an “as” in place of the “er”)

At least he's not trying to blame someone else like Griffin.

Its not possible for blacks to be racist. Where have you been?

This is cause for upset, not what he actually said...

Surprisingly though, why haven't the left gone after Maher more, his stance on Islam is far more conservative American than even some Repubs
