Good show, good panel (Martin Short, Sen. Bernie Sanders, Ben Affleck, and douchey Frank Luntz). If you don't have HBO, go to their website for some video clips that might make you want to sign up. But the coda on the show, New Rules, is always one of the best parts. Check it out.

BILL MAYER SHOW ----
ReplyDeleteBill had Rep. Sanders (I-VT) on Friday night... He says he is a Democratic Socialist. Claims he follows the Scandinavian countries' policies...
RESULT -- Audience cheers wildly...
FACT: Would Bill Mayer want to open up his property to people who want to camp on it in tents????
BILL????
That is what happens in Norway... BY LAW YOUR LAND CAN BE USED BY ANYBODY....
Want to set up a tent on your neighbors land in the country -- you can!!!

Twelve percent of the land in the county is set aside as nature conservation areas, but backpacking and camping isn’t limited to park lands. Hikers roaming Nordland’s countryside take advantage of Norway’s lack of “trespassing” laws - one may walk or camp on any land which is not cultivated.
SO BILL ---- SHOULD I BRING MY TENT TO YOUR HOUSE TOMORROW AND CAMP OUTSIDE???
Um, it's Maher.
ReplyDeleteYou're making the same kind of analogy my mother makes when arguing against universal healthcare. She points to the BAD things that have happened in other countries who have tried it.
Don't you think it's possible to use other countries' successful policies as a model, while discarding the things that don't work well?
