Maher: GOP, Fox Refuse to Stop Telling ‘Zombie Lies’ About Obama
Bill Maher ended his show Friday night with an editorial about how Republicans are massive liars who’ve lied about Obamacare for years, keep lying about it, and refuse to apologize for the lies even after they’ve been widely disproven as, well, lies. Maher said, “The next liberal to tell a Republican ‘You’re entitled to an opinion but not your own facts’ should really just admit they’ve never seen Fox News.”
Maher said that Republicans never stop telling lies even after they’re called out on it, compared to President Obama, who was caught in that lie about “if you like your plan you can keep your plan,” but then once he was called out, “he stopped saying it!”
Maher went down a whole list of “zombie lies” on the right about Obamacare and a whole array of issues and how they’re passed on from Fox News hosts, who pass them on to tea partiers in Congress, who pass them on to “the absolutely stupidest people on earth,” leading to that inevitable moment when Donald Trump tweets about it.
