I don’t much like Bill Maher of Politically Incorrect; I think he’s a blowhard who eclipses his guests’ attempts at conversation, rather than facilitates them. But he does have the courage of his convictions, which I admire. And he made a good point on last night’s show: the public are a lot more interested in finding out details of Gary Condit’s affair with Chandra Levy than they are with finding out what happened to her. Another in the unending series of examples of how Americans need to re-examine their priorities, if you ask me.

Bill Maher, ugh. I once read some article/interview on him in a magazine like “Rolling Stone” and it devoted a paragraph to how much time he spends jacking off, especially right before showtime. So now all I can think of when I catch him entering the set and introducing people (he’s after “Nightline” but before “X-Files”) before I flip frantically to another channel is: “Did he WASH that hand he is using to shake someone else’s hand? Or NOT?”
If you had any how often most men do that, Moira, you’d never shake anyone’s hand again.
