Bill Maher lost his job first time around for a remark about the alleged 
hijackers of 9/11.  I suppose he's been warned that any discussion of 
9/11 that does not follow the Bush/PNAC line will mean the end of his 
career. It seems that Bill Maher, like so many others, has his price.'

Maher is a comedian who hosts a weekly discussion about relevant current 
political topics.  He has no qualms about broaching very controversial 
topics and is an equal opportunity host on any issue OTHER THAN 9/11. 
On that topic, he has unequivocally labeled as fools all who raise 
questions about the official story.

Maher's histrionics last night... having to show his macho skill at 
running into the audience to personally oust the 9/11 truth-seeking 
protester was one for the record books.  It seems that he will talk to 
anyone, no matter how extreme or controversial, from Ann Coulter on, but 
the one taboo topic for the Bill Maher show remains 9/11.  Maher went so 
far as to say that on this single topic, of all the controversies of 
this administration... on this ONE topic, he agrees with George Bush. 
Those were his words last night.

You have to wonder why he would totally close the door to any possible 
discussion of the one event that made all the other horrors possible. 
Duh....

There were a number of scenarios he might have followed to deal with the 
protester. For starters, he could have offered to invite someone of 
repute to come on the show and present their case at a later date.  That 
would have quieted the protester as well as others in the audience who 
were angered by Maher's dismissal of anyone and everyone who dared to 
doubt the official lies offered by Bushco.  His ridicule of the 9/11 
Truth Movement is way out of character for someone so willing to call 
all the other Bush lies what they are....and you have to wonder who got 
to him and whose back he's covering.

One can only conclude that Bill Maher is either a coward, sacrificing 
principle to protect his job, or a Gatekeeper of the first order, 
working to keep any open discussion of 9/11 from ever reaching the public.

This is not about what Maher believes or does not believe about 9/11. 
It's about the refusal to consider that there might be another side to 
the discussion, especially in light of all the evidence to that effect 
that has been unearthed by scholars and scientists... not idiots or nut 
jobs, as Maher insinuates.

In case you want to promote this argument, here's something I've posted 
before, which you might have missed:

AND THEN THERE WAS ONE: THE FINAL HOLDOUT, 9/11
