It has been several days now, and the video clip of Bill Mahers supposedly get tough stance on a protestor in his show audiance has been out there. I have watched this over and over and over again and again. The more I watch it the more I am convinced he is one of the biggest chickens out there. Alot of tough talk but when iot came down to it he made sure that there were several security gaurds between him and the loud mouth from the audiance. There is no way he was going to actually get involved with the physical ejection of this nut bag.

As you watch the video note his movements. He looks around first to see if security is moving towards the objector. Then he moves foward. As he gets closer he stops then moves again ....only after there is security between him and the ejectee. He then pushes on the back of the black security man who is behind another security guard who is actually touching the ejectee.

Then quickly runs back up to the stage when there appears to be a confrontation of sorts just out of camera site. You will notice a buch of paper flung into the air. This hapopens as Bill is several yards away.

The press handles this as they did Al Franklins attack on a heckler. They are both herolded as tuff and reay to rumble. I say NO WAY. A coward and more then likely staged performance.

Al Franklins case, a case of assault by Franklin that should have been prosecuted.
