Thread Name: BS: Bill Maher
Subject: RE: BS: Bill Maher
I enjoy good humour. Maher is funny to me and doez a good job of using humour to get his issues out. However, I sometimes find he tends to get mired down on a few issues.

But, I can see why some may not like his humour and approach, and that some may be offended or consider he treats guests disrespectfully (no, nof compared to Nancy Grace).

Most entertainers who deal with cutting edge social and political issues face an uphill battle. Remember Lenny Bruce, whose approach was very controversial years ago, but leans more towards mainstream humour now. Maher benefits from the work of those pioneering entertainers.
