Bill Maher Takes on Obama, Cheney, and Hillary Clinton
It’s been a few months since Bill Maher has been on the air and a few things have happened in the meantime—including the inauguration of a new president. In an exclusive rant for The Daily Beast, Maher takes shots at his favorite targets: George Bush, Dick Cheney, Hillary Clinton and yes, even the Obamas. He even offers a few “New Rules.”
The new season of Real Time with Bill Maher starts February 20 at 10 p.m.

Why would anyone apart from the tiny MSNBC audience care what this extremely small and disturbed man has to say about anything. He is, I suppose, supposed to be a satirist, but satire is supposed to be funny, not just ugly and angry.

He is a sexist pig. Can he do any satire about any woman without mentioning sex?

Who cares.

Yay, Billy-Boy! We need your sharp little jaundiced eyes on the scene once again.
Missed you. Please get a better yearly schedule with HBO already!

Is this a Repiublican media outlet, or are some of these commenters blogged down by the venomous, contrary, crybaby opposition of the moron minority on the hill?
No dollar left behind? Bill, you're keeping me fit from laughter!

Bill Maher's material often is hilarious, he's intelligent and informed, and his comedic timing is perfect. He's one of the best political and social satirists around today, scathing and courageous.

Great Bill. You're the only guy who can really tell it like it is.
I almost fell out of my chair laughing.

Hey, it could be worse. You could be a rightwinger and have to laugh at Dennis Miller. At least Bill Maher is funny some of the time.

I am still laughing.

Even though Bill is sexist and bashes the South I still like his show.

Blagojevich just what we deserve...now that's funny. Bush robs the treasury and funnels the cash to defense contractors and Big Oil companies and we're worried about Blago...Good call Bill...

Great! He recognizes the silliness of situtations through humor. Some of our politicians are ridiculous.

America, Love it or leave it Banjo1. God that does feel good to say. I see why you Republicans love the phrase so much.

So if someone critisizes women: SEXIST
So if someone critisizes men: YOU GO GIRL!?
(just clarifying)
Bill maher rocks and I disagree with him sometimes but there should have been a hundred of him on the airwaves over the last 8 years. He had to get sent to exile at HBO for having an opinion that didn't fall in line with the post 9/11 nazis.
Thank you.
