Freeman's Fire


If I'm such a prick for calling Bill Maher a bastard every week on my show, why do the majority of Americans agree with me? And why does he constantly prove my point every time he opens his mouth on that pathetic excuse for a show?

Before I rant any more, allow me to explain why I hate Bill's guts so damn much...

Quite frankly, I've hated Bill ever since I was a teenager. As a high school student, I watched an episode of Politically Incorrect with Florence Henderson, that wrinkled old bitch, as one of the guests. She got into an argument with some religious chick about Marilyn Manson and his effect on society, and the religious chick said something that implied Manson didn't practice Christianity. An obvious statement like that. Now, I couldn't care less if some religious broad hates Marilyn Manson or not, because this is a free country, and he has the right to make any kind of music he wants - that's not what pissed me off. Instead of just skipping over the religious chick's irrelevant comment, however, Florence Henderson responded with what is, to this day, the stupidest statement I've ever heard on a primetime talk show:

"How do you KNOW Marilyn Manson doesn't have Jesus in his heart? He could be closer to Jesus than you!"

I'm paraphrasing here, of course, but she said something along those lines. For the sake of an argument, the dumb bitch was willing to make a completely ignorant comment like that. I mean, hell, whether or not Marilyn Manson is a Christian was completely IRRELEVENT to the argument they were having, but Florence just couldn't let the comment pass without being contrary, and she came off (at least to me) like a total ass. If she had half a brain cell left in her Greg-Brady-seducing skull, she would have just said this:

"OF COURSE Marilyn Manson isn't a practicing Christian - that doesn't mean he's bad for society, though! Are you saying only Christians are good for society?"

Unfortunately, Florence isn't a smart lady; she's a dumb bitch who starred on a stupid sitcom and she had no business trying to debate anything. Now, if I was the host of Politically Incorrect, I would have taken Florence to task for her stupid comment, and I would have made her look like a fool in front of everyone - and I clearly remember sitting in front of my TV as a teenager and HOPING Bill Maher would do just that. He didn't, of course, since Bill doesn't have one ball in his drooping sack. Bill just laughed and let the audience applaud Florence's statement.

You see, Bill Maher is a guy who has made a career out of insulting the politicians and religious leaders who come on his show (which is cool), but he's never had the guts to insult any of the entertainers who come on. Why? Because if he pisses off Hollywood and the celebrities who come on his show, he doesn't have a show. That's just spinelessness on his part. I'd rather have no show at all than to kiss somebody like Florence Henderson's ass. It's easy to make fun of a politician (everybody already does that), but it takes somebody with some real backbone to insult Mrs. Brady to her withered face. Watching that episode, back when I was just a teenage kid in high school, I realized what a little bitch Bill Maher is. He's a Jimmy Durante lookalike who parades through Los Angeles, pretending to be some bad-boy aristocrat that he's clearly not, hanging out at the Playboy mansion and getting laid by chicks who wouldn't even talk to him in a bar if he didn't have cash. He's pathetic.

I vowed as a teenager that if I ever was given a soapbox of any kind, any kind of a forum where I could speak MY mind, I wouldn't bow down to the celebrities and sitcom stars who appeared on my show. I promised myself that someday, I'd become the exact OPPOSITE of Bill Maher. And quite frankly, I have... because my show might just be an "Internet program," but unlike that sniveling crybaby, I host an entertaining show.

See you next week.
