Real Time Episode 71

[jtmx1]

I’ve seen every episode of Bill Maher’s Real Time since it premiered in 2003. This week’s is probably the best so far. If you can catch it, I think that you’d enjoy it. Someone (Belzer) finally finds the angry liberal voice that David has been fantasizing about since our national nightmare began in November of 2000. And Belzer isn't stupid-angry, like a Limbaugh or a Hannity. He is smart, focused, and prepared for all the silly Republican arguments that attempt to justify our preemptive wars. Beyond that, Stipe is understated and eloquent about current events, and Dobbs waxes satirical, blaming our national disarray on the fact that Americans have simply gotten stupid over the last five years.

It’s a great show. I heartily commend it to you.
