64. The Bill Maher fetish on DU is very strange

Saturday

Every week there are posts about who is on his show, what he said, etc., as though everyone is waiting breathlessly for the next Maher utterance from week to week.

I have never seen his show and haven't watched anything he's been on for maybe 20 years. Really, who gives a fuck what Maher says and who his guests are?
