When asked about returning the $1 million donation from Bill Maher, the White House yesterday announced they cannot be “the arbitrator of every statement that everybody makes in the policy and political arena.” And as Aaron reported, President Obama’s Super PAC announced it will be keeping the money from the foul mouthed host.

Here’s good (SFW) collection of quotes from Bill Maher which is going viral….

Bill Maher is a male prostitute.

I can't wait for the first time our nominee is pressed to denounce the inevitable off color remark by some prominent donor or supporter. I'm sure the response "according to Presidential spokesman Jay Carney, I cannot be the arbitrator of every statement......" will put the whole thing to bed.

It happens all the time:
-Axelrod had been demanding Romney to denounce Rush
-Santorum (and really, all Republicans) was taken to task over donor Foster Friess's stupid contraception joke

Well now they have their White House approved response.

Palin,Bachman, and Ingraham should sue the little weasel Maher for defamation, intentional infliction of mental distress, and outrageous conduct. Even though all three are public figures, there is no way Maher can prove the truth of what he said, and further that he said it in reckless disregard of the truth, which is the malice issue. Sue the weasel.

Neither can Rush prove that Fluke is a prostitute. Should she sue Rush?
It's nice to see that conservatives are admitting, even obliquely, that Rush shouldn't have said what he did. If this mess cleans up Bill Maher along with it, so much the better.

Given the laughable double-standards of the Libs, I wouldn't hold my breath on that one ...

W| 3.9.12 @ 3:39PM

I did not read the transcript but I believe Rush said IF she wants someone to pay THEN.... clearly referencing the conditional, and the context was someone else paying for her birth control.
Different facts from Weasel Maher's rants.
But if she wants to sue, let her sue.

Nothing will clean up Bill Maher.

Occam's Tool| 3.9.12 @ 12:10PM

Why give Maher publicity? He's a maggot.

rensalier| 3.9.12 @ 2:01PM

I have not seen much of Maher. Don't want to. Can't stand it. But the little I have seen (which gives ample reason to ignore him) tells me he is a thing screaming out for attention.

He is that weak, craven, small as a human being. He must have attention.

The next time that any Prog starts screaming that Sandra Bell is a "private citizen" so it is diiiiiifffffffferent, here ya go:

She appeared at the “Catholic Students for Women’s Health” press conference on 9 February 2012 at the National Press Club where she expressed support for Obama's contraception mandate.

She waived any "private citizen" claim she might have had long before she "testified" before Maerose Prizzi's kaffee klatsch.

The usual difference is that the conservatives apologize for their insults, while the radical-liberals refuse to do so. Why is that you ask? Simple, because liberals are worse that rabid animals [which have far superior morals to boot] who exist to inflict their excrement upon decent human beings. As indicated by Jeffery Lord recently, they have succeeded in eliminating Imus, Beck, Limbaugh [from ESPN] and are now hunting his EIV radio scalp as well. Throw in their surversive FAIRNESS DOCTRINE propagandized campaign, and you have the indications of their war against anything nor agreeing with their radical doctrines. Is this comparable to Muslim terrorists tactics worldwide against non-believers you ask?????????

Bob| 3.11.12 @ 6:20PM

Can we please do business like adults and leave the double standard at home? You would think it's not a lot to ask, but then again liberals don't make much sense with regards to anything.
