Bill Maher is getting tired of conservatives touting their masculinity while dismissing liberals as pussies and pansies, and in his show-ending New Rule Friday night, he said that Democrats need to stop letting Republicans claim that “they’ve got the big balls” because, as Maher put it, being a bully is not a real masculine value.

Maher was spurred on by conservatives piling on President Obama for saying he wouldn’t let his hypothetical son play football because of how dangerous it is, because apparently “any critique of our holy religion football is blasphemy… and brain injuries are fun.”

Maher trashed all the “non-serving chicken hawks [who] see themselves as the tough guys” when really, he said, they have all the bluster of a “blogger in his bathrobe.” He said Republicans have gone from Teddy Roosevelt‘s “speak softly and carry a big stick” to Chris Christie‘s “speak loudly and be a big dick.”

He said, “Bullying isn’t a masculine virtue, standing up to bullies is,” and mocked the idea that having second thoughts about sending troops into war is somehow a bad thing. http://www.mediaite.com/tv/bill-maher-rips-the-%E2%80%98bluster%E2%80%

Occupy Portland protester who was pepper-sprayed ordered to pay city $7,116

Elizabeth Evon Nichols, 23, became somewhat of a symbol of the Occupy movement when a photo of her being pepper-sprayed by police went viral. Nichols sued the city last August for excessive force but lost her case, and must now pay Portland back the money it spent to defend itself.
