Real Time with Bill Maher - Page 23 - OOTV -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

I've never seen Milo talk before. What's so scary about him? Bill's way of handling him is much better than boycott. Show was awful except for New Rules.

Why the **** is Milo being invited to speak at universities? The guy will disappear if he stops getting attention. His opinion will matter as much as Otto the garbageman if libtards stop giving him publicity.

I would imagine it is the Republican clubs on campus doing the inviting, knowing it will get publicity/get a rise out of others.

Last week that comedian told Piers to go **** himself and this week we had that exchange.

Going to be a wild 4 years.

I don't even get why conservatives give a **** about this guy? He isn't that witty, or smart. Do they like him just because he angers idiot liberals?

Basically. He is a troll and gets under the skin of the far left (see the Berkley riots) so he is a HERO to conservatives. He is also gay which gives them cover for sharing similarly intolerant views to their own.

I don't think he's bad or a coward, I think he's a self righteous idiot. Sure he's done some good work, but canceling an appearance over a guest he disagrees with (and thus bring more attention, not less, to it) is idiotic

Milo guy is annoying and has some odd/wrong ideas, but ~half of his points have at least some merit and people should engage with ideas they don't auto agree with.

That he lead a harassment campaign against a trans person because he's afraid for women and children in bathrooms doesn't need engagement. It's the marriage of a right wing talking point with dude-bro a**hole-ism

Some comedian will eventually figure out how to do "Colbert" of the left. Milo sure hasn't.

If one is truly interested in who/what milo is, I suggest one of his Joe Rogan Experience appearances. (there are 2)
He's an internet troll that feeds off the 'SJW' backlash. He has no actual intellect to argue, no beliefs, no point of view. Needless to say, many Roganites eat up his schtick.

CPAC revoked Milo's invitation. Guess they don't believe in free speech either.

Yes, it's a violation of Milo's First Amendment rights not to get paid gobs of money to preach his conservative gospel. Sad to see that the Conservative Political Action Conference has totally caved in to the PC nonsense.

Maybe Milo should have put a stupid "/s" at the end of his statement.

I don’t think he frankly knows what he’s going to say half the time, or knows what his philosophy is. But to see him as this monster is a little crazy. You know what he is? He’s the little impish, bratty kid brother. And the liberals are his older teenager sisters who are having a sleepover and he puts a spider in their sleeping bag so he can watch them scream.

The woman in the middle of this week's show was one of the dumbest and annoying guests he's ever had. I liked when she told MacFarlane she had researched the voting patterns in his hometown. What a psycho. Issa sounded reasonable in his interview. He must be worried about his re-election next year.

She did try to make an interesting point about dealing with people where they're at though. Even if they're absolutely wrong and can't understand facts, they still get a vote. The side that embraces them will definitely get that vote over the side that calls them an idiot.

Expected Seth to be the 'entertainment' guest at the end when I saw the lineup announced rather than the main panel but man, he killed it, especially during the overtime segment. Just very articulate and well informed and sane. Hope he comes back as a panelist again in the future. Everybody else was bad, although Ithought Issa was pretty reasonable during his interview. Actions speak louder than words though so we'll see if he actually conducts a legitimate investigation of Trump.

I really wish Paul Fussell was around to berate Duke University and Kyrie Irving. Because those dopes didn't do a great job.

"that Vanity Fair lady" = I'm officially old

Kyrie was trolling.

Quote:

Irving said the following to ESPN about his “the Earth is flat” comments:

“I think people should do their own research, man. Then, hopefully, they’ll either back my belief or throw it in the water, but I think it’s interesting for people to find out on their own. I’ve seen a lot of things that my educational system said was real and turned out to be completely fake. I don’t mind going against the grain in terms of my thoughts and what I believe.”
