New Rules: Bill Maher to the Teabaggers - The Founding Fathers Would Have Hated Your Guts Updated at 11:32 AM
Edited on Sat Jan-15-11 11:19 AM by kpete
MAHER: Now I want you teabaggers out there to understand one thing. While you idolize the Founding Fathers and dress up like them and smell like them, I think it's pretty clear that the Founding Fathers would've hated your guts. And what's more, you would've hated them! They were everything you despise. They studied science, read Plato, hung out in Paris, and thought the Bible was mostly bullshit.
....
They were not the common man of their day. Ben Franklin studied scientific phenomena like lightning and the aurora borealis, and were he alive today, he could probably explain to Bill O'Reilly why the tides go in and out.
James Madison was fluent in Greek and Latin, and could translate Virgil and Cicero. John Boehner can't translate Fareed Zakaria. And Thomas Jefferson was an astronomer and a physicist who founded the University of Virginia, played the violin, and spoke six languages. Or as Palin would say, "all of them".

25. geeze that was funny.
one day i'm shaking my fists at Bill and the next I think he is just perfection. lol. what a guy.
If the founders returned and saw what we have to done their country they would be amazed by the technological advances we have made. At the same time they would be disgusted with what our govt has become.
They would be sickened that an entire class of people is dependent on govt for every need in the land of freedom and opportunity they created. They would be mad that the tea party is something new, and not an organization that was started 100 years ago or more to protect the vision they had for this wonderful country.

I thought we were going to "tone down the rhetoric?" Guess not. I think it's pretty clear Joseph Stalin would have loved the crap out of Bill Mahr.
I can't be the only one to notice:

Yep, the gentlemen that wrote the Bill of Rights would be all about an all powerful central communist state.
The CDP members in good standing are really going bonkers to an ever smaller audience.
"The utopian schemes of leveling, and a community of goods, are as visionary and impracticable as those which vest all property in the Crown. {these ideas} are arbitrary, despotic, and, in our government, unconstitutional."
I actually saw something different looking at that Picture of Maher..You my friend, have a great eye. :cheersmate:(http://www.conservativecave.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=54095.0;attach=2501;image)

Dear Bill,
You ****ing idiotic tool:
Patrick Henry: “It cannot be emphasized too clearly and too often that this nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religion, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason, peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here.â€
John Adams: “ The general principles upon which the Fathers achieved independence were the general principals of Christianity… I will avow that I believed and now believe that those general principles of Christianity are as eternal and immutable as the existence and attributes of God.â€
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
John Quincy Adams (on the 4th of July): “Why is it that, next to the birthday of the Savior of the world, your most joyous and most venerated festival returns on this day? Is it not that, in the chain of human events, the birthday of the nation is indissolubly linked with the birthday of the Savior? That it forms a leading event in the progress of the Gospel dispensation? Is it not that the Declaration of Independence first organized the social compact on the foundation of the Redeemer's mission upon earth? That it laid the cornerstone of human government upon the first precepts of Christianity?"
Benjamin Franklin: “God governs in the affairs of man. And if a sparrow cannot fall to the ground without his notice, is it probable that an empire can rise without His aid? We have been assured in the Sacred Writings that except the Lord build the house, they labor in vain that build it. I firmly believe this. I also believe that, without His concurring aid, we shall succeed in this political building no better than the builders of Babelâ€
Alexander Hamilton (on the Constitution): "For my own part, I sincerely esteem it a system which without the finger of God, never could have been suggested and agreed upon by such a diversity of interests."
John Jay: “ Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers, and it is the duty, as well as the privilege and interest of our Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.â€
Chew on that, bitch!

Watching the video of him saying this stuff is interesting, even his audience was a little reluctent to cheer his bazaar interpretation of the founders.
The part about the founders only wanting elites to control the country was astounding, as anti-american as it gets.
I'd say he's our (the TEA party movement) best friend, we could not look better with such a troglodyte against us.
