Bill Maher recommends anger for the testicularly challenged

Bill Maher reckons Republicans are angry thugs and Democrats are docile wimps, or something like that:
The problem with American politics today is that one party has the monopoly on all the anger. To be a Republican is to walk around all day madder than Paula Abdul with a fistful of Vicodin and nothing to wash it down with.

And to be a Democrat means...I don't know. Your guess is as good as mine. It seems like ever since Michael Dukakis was asked how he'd feel if his wife got raped, and he said, "Whatever," the Democrats have been the party that speaks softly and carries Massachusetts. When Dick Cheney says, "Go f*** yourself," they say, "How hard?"

In the last election, George Bush called John Kerry "a coward, a liar, a wimp, a flip- flopper and a war criminal." And Kerry got so incensed, he almost fell off his windsurfer. It's bad when the person in your party with the biggest balls is named Teresa.

So, Democrats would do well to remember this: Anger can be good. Anger can be cleansing. Anger can be a force for change. Anger is what made America what it is in the world today: a hulking pariah whose only friends are toadies and sheiks.
Bill Maher's funny because he's a fuckwit. One reason liberals are so funny is they're always angry about something, in a girly-man sort of way – it's a lack of balls thing.

This points to the obvious question: how can you shave 'em if you don't have 'em?

Is it the same in Oz? I don't know, I've been angry from day dot. My politics haven't entered it. But as far as lefties vs the rest are concerned, I reckon I could do a full 'anti-voluntary unionism' protest over by myself.
