Bill Maher goes off on chick vs. slasher flicks, postage on tax returns, airline customer service, papal dress, corporate takeovers and how Barack Obama's "bitter" comments are not as elitist as John McCain would like you to believe.

Referring to voters who America has left behind economically as “bitter” isn’t an insult. In fact, it’s a compliment, acknowledging that they’re smart enough to understand what’s happening to them. The hopeful, now those are some idiots. So let’s separate the bitter – my people – from the idiots. If you think the Democrats are going to take away your Bible, you’re an idiot. If you think they’re going to take away your gun, you’re an armed idiot. And if you think they’re going to take away your gun and give it to a Mexican to kill your God, you’re Bill O’Reilly.

Heather also has Bill's interview with Chris Matthews up at YouTube.
