Maher & O’Rourke Consider Tobacco Legislation To Be Nonsense.
June 13, 2009
So tonight on Real Time, Bill Maher and P.J. O’Rourke discussed a number of topics, and briefly touched upon the new tobacco legislation, and they both seemed to think it was a silly idea. I shared my views on the topic earlier tonight. I would have exact quotes from Maher and O’Rourke, but I don’t remember them, and I would embed a video but it’s a little early for one to be floating around, so watch it on when it comes on again and if you don’t have HBO, then do what I did, and move in with somebody who does.
P.J. O’Rourke is a bit of a douche, but then again, I think it’s intentional, like that’s his schtick, and anyway he’s an amiable, affable douche, which puts him head and shoulders above most “serious” conservatives these days.
On a semi-related note – if you live in the Greenville, SC area, well then my condolences, but there is good news. Bill Maher is going to be performing a stand-up show at the Peace Center on June 25th. I already have my tickets; you can buy yours here. You can also buy tickets for Chicago, which I believe refers to the musical as opposed to the over-the-hill rock band, because I don’t think Chicago (the band) is at the point where they can do a week’s worth of shows in Greenville. Diana Krall is also playing. I may have to go to that. Hmm. Decisions, decisions. I am rambling; that means it’s bedtime.
