Bill Maher?

[sodamntired]

What do you think of him, with his hillarious observations on politics and everyone involved with it?

 

Myself, I am a big fan of his. He'll sometimes say something that cuts through the BS media/politics (and let's be honest, they are kind of the same thing nowadays) and say it like it is.

 

My favorite is what he said recently, "In America, if you're a guy, you can only put one thing in another man, and that's a bullet"

 

great stuff.

I freaking love Bill Maher. His show started back up again last Friday on HBO - they had John Edwards as one of the guests, and Bill was really surprised how honest Edwards was with all of his answers.

 

I think it's great that he has such liberal views. I wish more Americans knew who he is.

Yes! I've been saying this for a while now, after I saw him speak at Wake Forest (Edwards, not Maher.) I'm going to be pretty devastated when Clinton wins the Democratic nomination.

Yep, they discussed how Edwards is sort of at a disadvantage to be white and male ;)

I know! that was flipping hillarious!

 

I also liked how he had Craig Ferugson on....lot of funny/wise observations from the best talk show host on tv :angry:

 

 

"i want to go on the record of not being part of this, with my citizenship application still in process" LOL

I actually never realized how funny Craig Ferguson is before I saw him on Bill's show.

 

I like how that show works. And I like how Bill keeps people from all political views at the discussion table.

[sodamntired]

Exactly! on most political shows, you're either on the left or the right. Bill has guest from all sides.

 

It's great. ;)

I hate Bill Maher. I remember him when he was just a horrible stand-up comic, before Politically Incorrect. I liked that show though.

[sockcrotch]

i love bill maher. real time is awesome.

[heyrabbit]

something about that guy annoys me, even though I've only seen him in commercials. so ill give him the benefit of the doubt

[sodamntired]

this is a bit of why i'm a fan of his

I saw him on Graig Ferguson's show the other night and was sad that I hadn'y been watching his new show. He's one of the smartest and funniest guys on TV and I think what he does is really important. Kinda puts John Stewart to shame.

I have only seen the episode when he interviewed Garry Kasparov. Not bad. Kasparov was better though...

[The_Rat_Who_Would_be_King]

Why do they always resurrect the most obscure threads for the shittiest reason. That's not even an opinion worth posting about.

[bishopx]

Bill is very funny, and when he has a guest like Ann Coulter(Who he seems to want to fuck awfully badly) the banter is pretty good.

[sodamntired]

[bishopx]

That was awesome Chris, purely awesome!!!

[jjp21]

Yeah I remember that episode.

 

I like Bill mostly because he cuts through the bullshit and is funny at the same time.

[sodamntired]

i agree. and that I probably agree with what Bill has to say 95% of the time.

Same here. I do enjoy though I he offers all sides of the table a voice. Despite those that disagree often tentative to come on the show, he does ask all opinions to appear and usually has a balanced panel.

What comes out of his mouth is sometimes really good shit, but the guy is just so damn annoying & such a loser.
