HBO "Real Time with Bill Maher" Air Novemberish 2003 - enjoy :)
And finally, New Rule: Lay off California! You know,
the rest of America has been having quite a laugh at
California?s expense lately. But let?s remember this:
California has a lot of people. And the reason it
does is lots of other people in other states saying,
?Fuck this, I?m outta here!?
And then those people come here to California, and
people ask them, ?Don?t you miss the winters?? No,
strangely enough, I don?t. Much the same way I don?t
miss slamming a car door on my hands.
Make fun of California, but if it weren?t for
California, East Coast rappers would have to shoot
musicians from Branson. If it weren?t for California,
there?s be almost no TV, and you?d have to come home
at night and actually talk to your family.
You know, the rest of America feels about California
the way the rest of the world feels about America.
They hate us because we do what we want. They think
we?re too blessed and too free, and it makes them nuts
in the dreary hovels of Kabul and Tikrit and Lubbock,
Texas.
They pray to their threadbare gods that we?ll get what
we deserve. But it won?t happen. Because you never
know what we?re going to do here next. We elected
Ronald Reagan and Jerry Brown.
We?re home to Disney and Hustler, the Partridge Family
and the Manson Family. We can drink a Mudslide and a
Sex on the Beach during an actual mudslide while
having sex on the beach!
Our farms feed the world, and Calista Flockhart lives
here.
We have bears and great white sharks. And even our
washed-up actors are allowed to kill one blonde chick.
We invented surfing and cyber-porn and LSD and the
boob job. And if we didn?t, who would have?
We have oranges, free oranges, everywhere. What grows
on the trees in Scranton, fucker?!
We have a real hockey team named after a hockey team
in a movie!
Our Indian casinos could kick your Indian casinos?
ass.
We give our illegal aliens driver?s licenses. And we
have a guy running for governor who digs group sex.
Would anywhere else in America trade places with L.A.
or San Francisco in a piss-soaked New York minute? You
bet they would. Because I don?t recall anyone ever
writing a song called ?I Wish They All Could Be Rhode
Island Girls?!
