Bill Maher's Idiocy

Just ran across this Maher rant, barely contained by Joe Scarborough, on impeaching President Bush:

Here's one of the comments:

Scarborough can be a dope, but he's right on this one. What a stupid argument Maher makes for impeaching President Bush -- or ANY president. When Scarborough mentions that the president was waiting for instructions, a point well beyond the pretentious Maher, he meant Bush as waiting for instructions regarding his own security, as he should have.

I understand the desire to see the president rise to his feet and know, somehow, just what to do. But what happened that day was disorienting for everyone.

Here's how I think of it: You know what the flight attendants say on airplanes? To secure your own air mask first before assisting others? I think the prez had a responsibility to keep his head screwed on straight so he could keep functioning as the president.
