Dinesh D'Souza was on Bill Maher, and of course he got trashed by Maher. Dinesh was having none of it, though, and it must be noted that his appearance showed Maher what a stupid horse's as he really is...my apologies to horses' asses everywhere.
Interesting items in this thread. First off, the OP by Lucy Goosey which prompted everything:

Dinesh D'Souza's "2016: Obama's America": The Five Most Hilarious Lowlights
A really funny review of Distort D'Newsa's movie - it doesn't even pretend to take it seriously, which is the only appropriate response other than ignoring it completely.
The movie of choice this week for people who hold the beliefs that A) America is the strongest, best-est country that God ever virgin-birthed and B) that that nation somehow just isn't strong enough to survive eight years of centrist Democratic leadership, Dinesh D'Souza's 2016: Obama's America actually does not touch on 2016 much at all.
Instead, it distills the anti-anticolonialist jeremiads of D'Souza's books—which already were to academic argument what fruit snacks are to fruit—into a eminently fast-forwardable travelogue through Nairobi, Kenya, Indonesia, and a magic-hour D.C., where D'Souza slumps about Droopy Dog–style in contemplation of the monuments and where flags are forever dancing on winds that we must presume are the world's most exceptional.
For what it's worth, his thesis concerns the reasons Obama returned a bust of Winston Churchill to the British Embassy early in his presidency. The only answer D'Souza entertains: that Obama is a Mau Mau anticolonial revolutionary driven to impress his dead, absentee father, a Kenyan who dared to write in 1965—two years after his homeland achieved its independence—that government regulation might sometimes be needed to rein in private industry. You might object, "But Obama has spent almost zero percent of his life with that father, and something like 75 percent of his life in the same private schools and Ivy League universities and institutions of power occupied by every other president of either party in recent American history." D'Souza's counter is to brandish Obama's memoir and proclaim, "Notice it says Dreams From My Father, not Dreams of My Father."
Yep, the same old libshit. No response to its substance, laughing around the edges. So let's start with how the sensitive, diversity-worshipping caca-bits from DU welcome the presence of our Indian-heritage fried:

Bill Maher interviewed this douche bag on "Real Time" (HBO) last night...
What a sleazy, slimy, smarmy waste of skin he is!
edit: typo
Oh, my... btw, glad you fixed the typo so you could make damn sure we all see your wonderful, kumbaya sensitivity!

Wasn't he a creep? n/t
That's not racist! He didn't say "join the PGA!"

The kind of creep you wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley...
Really ugly facial expressions and body language.
That's not racist! He didn't say "food stamps" or "Chicago" or "Hold the Fort!"

Maher did a great job exposing D'Souza for the weaselly **** he is. Must-see TV.
Oh, yes... get your jollies off by having a solid commie host rip a Tea Party "ferriner" in front of your commie DU audience types!!

Bill Maher asked D'Souza, "How far up your ass do you have to go to pull that out?"
Archae's GD thread has the link to the video:

You thought the freaking LIES were good?
Translation: "WHAT THE **** DID YOU JUST SAY???" Looks like Are_You_Serious is going to be on someone's short stick. He just got questioned by someone who has over a 100,000 posts! That's a lotta cheetos, cokes, and skank stains on his mom's basement sofa...

I am glad I saw Bill Maher's revenge
on Distort DeNooza last night as he worked magic by stringing him along and then going in for the kill, much to that snake's chagrin.
YES! The perfect antidote to the RNC convention!

People like D'Souza are just cashing in.
They are nothing but Useful Tools who found a way to earn money without having to actually work; they are the hired help of the Oligarchs, no different than one of their maids or groundskeepers, paid to do a job
The Right Wing media clown car is full of them. They have no real deeply-held political beliefs, it's all about making money.
I've said it before, I'll say it again...if I paid Limbaugh enough money,tomorrow he would start saying whatever I told him to say.
LOL...look who's calling the kettle black! Who else but an expert in not working would call someone out for making money while not working? Besides, clowns in clown cars make money last I heard, unlike these DU bozos.

Little off topic, but how does this movie
get into 1700 theaters?? I know, stupid question, but I've seen movies from major studios that have trouble getting into that many theaters. The distributor is based in Utah and it's called Rocky Mountain Pictures. They also distributed the Atlas Shrugged movie. There are movie theaters around my area that are showing this shit, but they wouldn't carry The Artist and The Conspirator, among many, many others. Money, Money, Money is always the answer, I guess 
Gee, DearHeart, COULD IT be the money? COULD IT be that people want to see something which validates their own intelligence, their own experiences, and their own family and community values, without being shovel-readied down our throats and called "The New Normal?" Nahhhhhhh.....
OK, I'm done. Hit it!
