DescriptionHBO’s Bill Maher joined Larry King on Hulu’s “Larry King Now” to assess the 2012 election and, as might be expected, he had a blistering critique of, well, just about everyone.

Paul Ryan: “Has the moral core of the pimp from ‘Taxi Driver.’ This is a guy who will just say anything. … I thought Mitt Romney was a facile liar; this guy even lies about his marathon times. He’s just one of those people who when he’s speaking, he’s lying.”

GOP: “There are no moderates in the Republican Party, and [Jon Huntsman] is certainly not one of them and Mitt Romney is not one of them either. They believe in the fantasy world of trickle-down economics even though we proved that it doesn’t work twice before. … And it’s not going to work again.”

American public: “I have fear always about the American public. They’re not very bright.”

Obama: “On civil liberties, he’s been just as bad as [George W.] Bush, which is even scarier because imagine the worst of George Bush’s policies implemented by someone who’s smarter than a raccoon. … I always said he wasn’t going to be chocolate Jesus and he wasn’t.”
