In a truly astonishing volte-face, Fox Nation did a thread about Bill Maher without the usual Fox News porcine descriptor used for any threads in which Maher lampoons conservatives and Christians - especially God's other son, Tim Tebow which, on Fox, is a truly egregious offense. But on this week's "Real Time," Maher joked that liberals didn't like his comment about how he's more aligned with Ron Paul than Barack Obama because they are "brainwashed." And for that, he has earned the right to a name that is not an epithet. On Fox Nation he is no longer "Pig Maher." He is now known by his given name of Bill Maher - at least until the next time he offends right wing sensibilities or lampoons Tim Tebow in which case the sty, otherwise known as Fox Nation, will get back down in the mud.
