I can see why Bill Maher gets on the nerves of the losers.

Have you spoken with the engineers at BP yet?
Try yucking it up with the folks who make their living on the Gulf fisheries.

They'll appreciate your light-hearted approach.

PETA never crossed my mind. But thanks for bringing it up for discussion. It looks like you spend a lot of time thinking along those lines.

Not at all. I just know more about Maher than many of his admirers, and have concluded that his infuence on our culture is pernicious.

If any of you have followed Bill's show you would know that he holds both parties accountable for their actions. What I enjoy about his show is his intolerance to both extreme sides of each party. He's much more of an independent and I believe speaks the truths without a party bias.

This countries archaic blue/red party needs to fall already. There is a reason why independents make up a 1/3 of the country now. These old stone age rock fights are tieing up our government from getting anything done without fear of losing voters on the left or right side. Total BS and a waste of tax payers money!

You think too much about yourself too. How about you let others decide?

So, what did you took the most offense to, in the video the OP alludes to? Or, did you not bother to watch it at all?

If this is so, why have there been no fearless Maher commentaries on the destruction of the Gulf Coast by this shilly-shallying President who is so obviously in the pocket of the oil companies?

Hell, Maher was still doing the Bush-Katrina schtick last week, even as Obama was mulling putting togehter a committee to uh study the situation.

Maher is yet one more cheapjack shill for the DNC. Colbert without a network is what he is...

You sound like Fox. We report. You decide. Bet you watch it all the time.

Review my comments on Maher, above and below. If you feel like addressing them, do so. Otherwise, just hang out at the studio and see if you can get Bill's autograph. He needs his fans just as Howdy Doody needed the peanut gallery.

What Fox wants to sound like, is different from what they expect of the sheeple that flock to it. That is a distinction it maintains, I can't take it away from them.

Don't worry, I have as much intention of getting Bill's autograph as yours. It is not my style. I don't take it all that seriously, but their point of views can make for something interesting, and it does.

Are there specific points you had issues with? (That was my question, the content, not the personality himself).
