HBO Tonight.

Bill Maher during primary season doesn't suck.

1. I saw on another
thread that Al Sharpton will also be a guest.

It should be really entertaining!

2. Sharpton on with Clark?
That's cool. I think the Reverend likes Clark. I hope he can throw his votes to The General when it matters.

3. Not together. Clark via satellite.
But enough reasons to watch. I wonder who the wingnut blonde bimbo will be? :shrug:

4. Ironic - remember when Bill Maher got fired for criticizing Clark?
He got fired after 911 for his comments about how the US "bombs from 30,000 feet" and that's not "brave" - a pretty explicit criticism of Clark's Kosovo bombing campaign. Interesting.

7. That wasn't about Clark
That was about U.S. policy.

8. Uh, wrong.
It had nothing to do with "bombs from 30,000 feet". It was about launching cruise missiles from the Gulf.

"We have been the cowards, lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That's cowardly."

If you're going to candidate-bash, at least bother to use accurate information.

6. I've missed Bill Maher's show!!
Even though I don't always agree with Maher, I like the discussions and guests. He allows liberals to actually get a word in! I don't watch the network political shows like Hardball because there is very little debate, and too much focus on right-wing talking points.

Also, have you noticed that whenever Ann Coulter appears on the show she looks even more like a complete imbecile than usual?

9. Coulter is always at her most frazzled when Bill in the mix...
Chris Rock tore her a new asshole on "PI" once...

:crazy:

12. I miss his nightly show on ABC
But he was freeped off the network...

Just like they tried to ruin the Dixie Chicks...

And Sean Penn, Tim Robbins, & on & on...

11. Bill may consider Ann Coulter a friend
but on his show he rarely goes easy on her!
