Most of us know who Bill Maher is. If we didn’t know who he was prior to 4/11/08, we certainly do now after his ramblings about the Pope caused a ton of controversy. Maher stated:
“He (the Pope) used to be a Nazi and he wears funny hats. Thats right, the Pope is coming to America this week, and ladies – he’s single!”
Because of this, some catholic groups have set up a website firebillmaher.com. On the site, they ask everyone to sign a petition to have HBO fire Bill Maher. We here at ProfilesBlog.com would like everyone to sign the petition here (by leaving a comment below) to do the exact opposite. This is America folks! The home of the free and the brave! Bill Maher should be allowed to state what he wants.
Fact is the Pope does have Nazi ties so his comment was not pure slander. The Pope was part of the “Hitler Youth” as a youngster. If you live in America you should be able to state your opinion regardless. Here’s to Bill Maher for being brave enough to state his mind, and not afraid to offend the biggest religious group in America.
Sign the Petition Below in support for Bill Maher!
