Bitter comic,Bill Maher, called Petraeus a stooge tonight on CNN. You liberal looneytoons never tire of denigrating our finest citizens: >09/18/2007 5:23:01 PM Bill Maher gave an unsatirizable interview on Tuesday evening’s "The Situation Room" on CNN, spending a large portion of his ten-minute interview attacking, among others, General David Petraeus, Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker, and Iraqi prime minister Nouri al-Maliki, labeling them "stooges" for President Bush.... ...Blitzer first asked the HBO host about the congressional Democrats’ lack of action on the Iraq war. "Is there more that they [the Democrats] could be doing? Should be doing?" Maher’s answer: Yeah, I guess there is. But, you know, what can you do with a situation where there's one man who stubbornly has the power and will not relinquish it? And he's such a liar, you know? I think that -- if he would just be straight with the American people, instead of saying things like, 'The people who are attacking us in Iraq are the same people who attacked us on 9/11.' What a blatant lie.... Blitzer then asked about General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker. BLITZER: You listen closely to General David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker.... They made the case effectively for President Bush that the U.S. should continue this strategy. MAHER: Wait a second. He put the words in their mouth. That wasn't the Petraeus Report.... It was a White House-written report. We know that. Bush has an interesting little scam going. He also quoted in his speech on Thursday night, Maliki. And he said basically that the Iraqi leadership is asking us to stay. So, in other words, he puts words into his stooges' mouths, and then, he quotes them.<
