Catholic League targets Maher! (Again!)

It's been over a month since we heard anything from Bloviating Bill Donohue of the Catholic League; that's far too long for him to keep his constantly-complaining trap shut. His newest target: Bill Maher (not too hard to believe, ha!). Maher's latest transgression: on last Friday's RealTime, he compared UFOs to Virgin Births. Here's Maher on his show:
“But I think it is much more likely that there could be space ships from outer space, than what a lot of things people believe. People still believe, you know, excuse me I know I may inject religion into every show but UFO’s are a lot more likely than a space god flew down bodily and you know who was the Son of God and you know had sex with a Palestinian woman, and um…”
...kaBOOM! SHRIEEEEEK! Eyeballs bulging, blood pressure through the roof, synapses firing at redline, Donohue squealed about Maher's serial "Christian bashing", calling him "America's #1 Bigot", and charged:
“There is no bigger bigot in America today than Bill Maher. His serial insults are tolerated on HBO and on late-night television shows because the producers are not outraged by what he says. How else can we explain his ability to offend with impunity?”
How? How do you think? Because nobody gives a happy flying monkey fuck what you and your psychotically-oversensitive ilk think, Bill, that's why. Funny how Bill feels free to slag minorities, yet can't abide even the most moderate musing about the plausibility of the legends that form his faith. It's odd, in a twisted way, since Donohue himself has been known to make jokes at the expense of his faith when defending sexual predators(!). Huh? Yeah, that's what I said:
"In a press release, Bill Donahue, president of the Catholic League, minimized the charges against Hudson and attempted a joke at the Virgin Mary’s expense. “Effective today,” Donohue wrote, his organization had “a new requirement for all future employees: all candidates must show proof of being immaculately conceived, that is, they must demonstrate that they were conceived without sin.”
Free Speech for me but not for thee? Sorry Bill, it don't work that way: free speech is for everyone, even douchebags like you. Suck it up, princess.
