<em>WASHINGTON — A congressman says comedian Bill Maher's comment that the U.S. military has already recruited all the "low-lying fruit" is possibly treasonous and at least grounds to cancel the show.

Rep. Spencer Bachus, R-Ala., takes issue with remarks on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher, first aired May 13, in which Maher points out the Army missed its recruiting goal by 42 percent in April.</em>

My response?

HOUSTON - A citizen says Congressman Spencer Bachus's comment that Bill Maher's recent comments are "at least grounds to cancel the show" is possibly borderline government censorship and fundamentally anti-American.
