Bill Maher has another moment

Published May 28, 2012 4:00am ET



So, the “comic” strikes again. Comedian Bill Maher — the Democratic Party hatchet man with his own television show on the Home Box Office network — has crossed the line so egregiously that even President Obama’s campaign has condemned his remarks. Using the social media forum known as Twitter (and proving, once again, it has the word “twit” in it for a reason) Maher tweeted, “Why even listen to #MittRomney on foreign policy? His entire FP experience is 2 yrs trying to browbeat Frenchmen into joining his cult.”

He was referring to the fact that presumed Republican presidential nominee and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney spent two years in France as a Mormon missionary. What does that mean? It means that Romney had two more years of foreign policy experience than Obama had when he ran for president, won the election and took office.
