The Huffington Post reports that comedian Bill Maher called Republican Florida Rep.

The elephant might not be the best party mascot for the GOP, according to comedian Bill Maher.

Maher derided the Republican Party as the “party of the apes” in blog poston Monday, also blasting Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) and suggesting he be institutionalized:

In response to West’s recent remark that about 80 Democrats are communists, Maher — who has donated to President Obama’s reelection campaign — suggested someone should “take him to the padded cell and give him 20 CCs of the high test.”
