Do all the people sitting around him ever talk?  Or do they just laugh hysterically?

that's the end of the show monologue.  about 40 minutes of the show is panel.

The last 5 minutes of every show is for "New Rules" where he just does his thing. The rest of the show is debate between the panel

Nobody that just 2 years ago was railing on the rich and how they don't pay their fair share, who then turns around complains about taxes being too high is a stud on any level.

Sadly some of you are just . . . dumbasses.

Bill Maher probably paid between 35-40 percent of his income into taxes last year, and lament it as he does he still paid it - which is the key point in this distinction - and does not make him a hypocrite, especially when he has the resources and income type to avoid it if he wanted. What he rails against are the mega-rich, super-rich businesses and individuals who HAVE schemed out of it or just simply have it codified to pay no more than 18% of their income towards taxes which he himself pays (and then some). He is, in fact, in a better position to argue this than almost anyone else. 

Besides, complaining about high taxes, the people who don't pay them and what they're used on, while still paying them is a right of passage in this country, something I'm sure you and your other 60 year old retired friends with pulled up white socks talk about while staring blankly and open-mouthed into the yonder of your driveway.

Not exactly.  He wants taxes lowered because he doesn't want 1/3 of the budget to be defense.

Americans loved Reagan because Reagan loved America, unconditionally.

see there are plenty of ways maher could say those things effectively and make me not think he's a douche.

but his stuff is just annoying and he seems like he sucks as a person.

That's just the feeling of the truth. In your face.

he also makes really awkward connotative black jokes to prove how edgy he is and just looks like a dork. got called out once during his show by a black woman because he called her "sister" and waved a finger at her. yet constantly talks about how racist people are.

Watched him the other night. He said he's ok with all of the spying on citizens as long as Obama is in office, but he really worries if a conservative becomes president.  :rolleyes:

which i guess is different than every neocon on this board being ok with bush spying, but not obama.
