Bill Maher is a sanctimonious ass.

[True Dough]

28. I'll throw in a

"I agree with you."

I see Maher reviled here on the DU regularly. I'm not going to argue with anyone anymore that he's more on our side than theirs, but I get that impression when I watch his show.

So he doesn't treat Democrats like they're beyond reproach. That offends some Dems right off the hop.

I listen to his critiques. I occasionally see merit in them. Sometimes I think he's missing the mark. Such is life.

I laugh at some of his jokes, I find others unfunny. But, on balance, I tune in most weeks. I will periodically skip a guest when it's someone I cannot stand to listen to.

I won't be watching this Friday because he's taking this week off. But I'll be back the next week. He mentioned that he's going to respond to Trump bashing him for cracking jokes about Trump. That ought to be good.
