Regurgitating the same derogatory comments he spews on his HBO show, Bill Maher showed up Monday night on the Late Show where CBS, unlike HBO, excised his vile terminology for Tea Party activists. Maher denounced Tea Party followers as “sad, unfortunate people” because they are “corporate America's useful idiots.” Then he employed his usual “tea-baggers” phrase, but CBS silenced the “baggers.”
