Real Time's Bill Maher took Texas Gov. "Goodhair" Rick Perry to task for signing the ridiculous "Merry Christmas bill" into law, which is supposed to protect Christmas and "other holiday celebrations in Texas public schools from legal challenges."

MAHER: New Rule: If you're thinking about the sanctity of Christmas in June, just stop. This week Texas Gov. Rick Perry signed the "Merry Christmas bill," protecting people who say "Merry Christmas" from the people who wish they'd say something else, who total somewhere between three and nobody.

Come on. It's the first day of summer. Can’t we wait to do this until Christmas season really starts -- on the last day of summer?

They're not going to stop with this stuff as long as they think it's scoring them points with their wingnut base.
