In my own opinion Bill Maher is one of very few that put the country first. He is willing to rip Bush or Obama just as easy when they are at fault and will also credit them appropriately when they do something well. He even sided with Sarah Palin the other night saying that he thinks the author is wrong for moving next door to her and she should have some right to privacy. Guys like Hannity, Rush, and Beck seam alot more focused on the Republican agenda than what is best for the country. The one thing people have to realize is that no party will ever be 100% correct. Any thoughts?
I have heard both if these guys speak out against the president when they thought he was wrong or was screwing things up. but most of the time I think they give their guy a lot of slack on most issues.
Do Bill Maher, Rush Limbaugh or any other political talk show host put the country ahead of their political party?

Most of them (Limbaugh, Beck etc) put the effort to increase their own popularity (and wealth) before both political ideology or the best interest of the country. Whatever sells them to a audience, they are on it, with opinions, both true, false or some point in between.

With pundits, seeing their opposition fail is more important than seeing their country succeed. Beck or Limbaugh would prefer to see Obama's policies crash and burn, taking America with them, than see his policies succeed to the benefit of the country.

Spot on.
Roysoldboy,
Your man-cush with Beck is getting annoying. Could you please just go back to bashing everything left, and leave Beck alone for a bit?

I think Hannity, Rush and Glennie's allegiance is to their paychecks. Maher, Jon Stewart etc. will always be the way they are
I agree that the large majority of these talking heads (both sides) largely put their own earning potential and ratings WAY above anything to do with their political party or their country.
Nancy Pelosi is in politics and not a host.Sorry but you are already showing a bias.
On the contrary , Pelosi put's on a show every chance she get's .
