Bill Maher's New Rule: Glenn Beck Is Like A Car Alarm (VIDEO)

This week, Bill Maher's new rule is Glenn Beck-specific.

In this exclusive preview, Maher offers a common complaint: aren't car alarms annoying? It's not like they work. When was the last time you heard a car alarm and actually believed a car was being stolen?

But car alarms do offer a pretty good analogy for a certain Fox News host. Watch the clip below to hear Maher's new rule and catch "Real Time" Fridays at 10 p.m. EST on HBO.

Maher was the reason I paid $80 per month for a cable TV connection. Wish I could still watch him, but $80 was too high a price.

This is a rehearsal for next week or something? I'm confused. But anyway, yeah, true. Bill is right, as he often is.

Bill Maher is one of the smartest people on television. He is a true intellectual and luckily for us he has wonderfully acerbic sense of humor to go with it.

Maher is just jealous.

He only wishes he cold be as funny as Beck.

What? He's not a comedian? Oh, now I get it!

That commercial is longer than the clip.

[FrankenPC]

New rule: the commercial can't be longer than the clip

What commercial? ... Oh, that's right - I use Firefox with AdBlocker. You don't? WTFN?

Wow. Power connections w Obama & the middle east, huh? Funny how Beck had no problem w the Bush families ties to the Saudi Royals & the Bin Laden empire, or how Bush Jr & Sr were connected to Enron. Funny how he had no issue at all w how as Secretary of Defense in '92 Cheney paid Halliburton $9mil for a report on how private contractors could support US troops, & 3 yrs later Cheny's becomes CEO of Halliburton & they get >$2bil in gov't contracts. No issue w Cheny's connection to KBR & OPIC or New American Century. Funny how he never mentioned connection of Bush's failed oil company, Unocal, w the Taliban to build a pipeline out of Afghanistan, or how the Bush Administration changed the focus in Afghanistan & Pakistan from hunting Ossama Bin Laden to an Afghan invasion as early as March, 2001.
But I admit, I missed Beck's show on Obama's connections. How do they really compare?

Sam... this is too much for Stevie and won't even come up with an intelligent response for counter argument!! But its the best way to shut him up for good tho!! F&F

Steve and Sam stuck in the left/right paradigm, funny

Me thinks you need to replace your tinfoil hat, the government's gamma rays are starting to affect you. Btw, Maher labels himself a libertarian, not a liberal.

A$%wipe that's way smarter that you for sure!!!

When in doubt, ad hominem. Classy.

Calm down, little bagger.

Hey? Lil bagger did you soak your bags this morning?

the bloody commercial was longer than the video... That's just plain ridiculous. These ad people are starting to take too much liberty with this stuff.

I use Firefox's Adblocker - I highly recommend it.

[Roger Ochs]

Maher is right on both points.

[windecinde]

03:16 PM on 04/03/2011

He's not right. He's just making a joke.

[swimbiker]

06:08 PM on 04/03/2011

You are correct; he is a Libertarian. But, he is getting to the gist of Glenn Beck.

I waited through a commercial for this. He gets lamer every day.

[TXconfidnz]

12:02 PM on 04/01/2011

And yet you STILL waited for it.. talk about lame!

[bryan broome]

12:50 PM on 04/01/2011

I gave him 3 months (while not bothering to watch) to come up with something entertaining.

Use Firefox with the Adblocker Add-on. It blocks virtually all ads, including the ones in videos. I didn't have to watch an ad to see that clip.

Thanks for the tip.

I use adblocker also, no ad appeared here, but I also use No-Script, and it took me 3 minutes to figure out which script needed to be temporarily enabled just to see the viewer (answer: 5min.com).
