On Friday's Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO, Bill Kristol cried "bull****" on Maher's claim that the Tea Party was formed because of a black president.

Maher "celebrated" the fifth anniversary of the formation of the Tea Party by bashing them on his show. He initially posed that their big issue was "bailouts, too much socialism." Maher then lists the various banking and car manufacturing industries that have mostly paid back their bailout money and asserts:

Socialism works sometimes, doesn't it?

Kristol explained that those bailouts happened mostly under Bush and before there was a Tea Party. But Maher wanted to get to the real crux of the matter in his mind; that the Tea Party hates black people.

Kristol: What was the origin of the Tea Party five years ago? It wasn't about bailouts. 

Maher: Sure it was.

Kristol: It was not. It was about a mortgage bill and then it was about Obamacare and then it was about a stimulus…

Maher: It was about a black president. But lets...

Kristol: That's bull****! That is total bull****.

Maher: Really? That's bull****?

Kristol: You think tens of millions of people, just out there, they… even you don't believe that. You're just saying that.

Maher: I totally believe that. Well, it happened a month after he took office; suddenly white people were very upset about debt, even though Bush had raised the debt way more than Obama had.

Kristol: They were upset about Bush's raising the debt.

Maher: I don't remember a Tea Party then.

Kristol: There was conservative upset about Bush raising the debt. And the Tea Party was a rebellion against the Republican establishment as well as the Democrat establishment.

Maher: Really?

Kristol: Yes.

Even CNN contributor Margaret Hoover jumped in to knock Maher's lack of knowledge saying:

It actually did start under President Bush, not President Obama.

Maher's only response before he moved on was mockingly saying, "So we hate socialism."
