Bill Maher--despite some unfortunate errors like his pro-Israel slant and his undue respect for the conniving Clintons--is the closest thing we've had to a really competent, honest social critic since H.L. Mencken wrote for the Baltimore Sun. It's considered heresy in this country to question the great wisdom of the common rabble: the rednecks, the pinheads, the xenophobes, the warmongers, the creationists. That's what Mencken was loved for doing when nobody else would, and that's what Maher is loved for.

Post of the year!!
Bill Maher is relevant to you?

Of all the intellectuals in this world you choose to lean on Bill Maher?

Wow, that's pretty embarrassing.

Maybe, just maybe, Bill Maher was right about the "American's are stupid" thing.....

Self-fulfilling prophecy is a strange phenomenon.

Bro, relevant as an entertainer.

Who said anything about intellectually relevant?

Just admit that you got pwned with your half a brain comment.

Say what you want about his style, but he can't really be "shot down" for making stupid political comments like Beck or Limbaugh are.
Sure he can, as he does it all the time.
Once again he is a nut job!!!!!!!!
His views are way progressive and out of line!

Maher is far from Rush as a money maker!

another white guy whose white guilt has dominated his life and TV program
that's why he brings on guests like Jay-Z and Cornell West and dates young black Hollywood models that end up writing exploits in tell-all novels about his involvement with black prostitutes (see "Superhead")
