Bill Maher slams undecided voters: ‘dipsh*ts’ should stay home
On Friday nights episode of Real Time, host Bill Maher closed his New Rules segment with rant ripping into undecided voters.
If youre one of the 5 percent of American voters who are still undecided on who to vote for, its okay to admit you just dont really give a shit, Maher began. Seriously, if you still cant figure out who you like more Mitt Romney or Barrack Obama stay home
because you probably couldnt find your polling place anyway. I mean, what more information does someone need to make this choice? Obama has been President for nearly four years. And Mitt Romney has been running for President since 1971, when his space egg incubated and he burst out of an astronauts chest.
But Mahers criticism wasnt merely for the undecideds, but for notion that mainstream media outlets give their opinions weight.
Can we please stop treating them like theyre more noble and discerning than the rest of us?
[Undecided voters are] put on a pedestal by the media, as if theyre Hamlet in a think tank, searching out every last bit of information and high-minded arbiters pouring over policy positions and matching them against their own philosophies. Please! They mostly fall into a category political scientists call low-information voters otherwise known as dipshits.
