Maher on Reagan, the Big Phony

••••

Despite all this, beggars can’t be choosers and in this information desert we call the American media Maher is one of the few who, in the Carlin tradition, has the gonads to say, from time to time, some truly irreverent things about the system. Things that NEED to be said.  Last night he went after Reagan—a target long overdue—but I suppose with even Obama and the rest of the whorecracy genuflecting before the “legacy” of the “Great Communicator,” Maher had had just about enough. He took some pretty good shots, in his usual sarcastic way, to paint Reagan for what he was: one of the most infamous pieces of excrement to inhabit the White House.  I think he succeeded. Judge for yourselves.—P. Greanville
