The same Bill Maher who bristles against political correctness and hurls obscene vitriol at every opportunity finally found someone who he believes crossed a line — that being Major Garrett of CBS News who dared ask President Obama a tough question during yesterday’s press conference on the Iran deal.

Maher not only called Garrett an “asshole,” the aging HBO comedian compared Garrett’s question to hurling the word “nigger.”

The desperation from the Left whenever Obama faces anything that isn’t already scripted is unlike anything I have ever seen in three decades of watching politics.

And Maher wasn’t alone. Within minutes of the end of Obama’s news conference, the left-wing cable news network CNN launched a mini-hate campaign against Garrett.
