Maher on Romney’s speech at Liberty University: ‘Clown, meet college’
Friday night on “Real Time with Bill Maher,” host Bill Maher devoted a section of his weekly “New Rules” segment to Liberty Universty, saying, “New Rule: You can’t expect me to believe anything Mitt Romney said last week at Liberty University because a) he’s a liar, and b) Liberty University isn’t really a university.”
He characterized presumptive Republican nominee former Gov. Mitt Romney (R-MA)’s speech to the graduating class as “a guy in magic gym shorts talking to virgin Baptists. Clown, meet college.”

The Results of the First Bush War
The commander of NATO-led forces in Afghanistan bluntly warned Sunday that American soldiers will face combat in that war-torn country right up to the time they leave, December 31, 2014. General John Allen told reporters not to buy into a “narrative” that the handover of security responsibilities to Afghan forces next year means US troops will be out of harm’s way.

Florida’s board of education has decided to lower the passing grade on standardized tests after noticing a drastic drop in student passing scores. In other words, if the students don’t do well enough on the tests, they don’t teach them better, they just lower the bar. Why didn’t we think of this before? Imagine how many more doctors we could’ve had right now.- Jay Leno
