>> Why do you think Bill Maher is brilliant?

Because he referred to our military heroes as "cowards" while implying that the 9/11 terrorists were heroes?

I think Bill Maher is one of the smarmiest people on TV. He's truly creepy, but has really interesting guests worth watching.

I think he gives "liberals" a bad name.

Koan: "I like Bill Maher because he thinks of things I often do not and he presents thme in a funny way, but I can recognize the truth in what he says. Same with John Stewart and Steven colbert.

I believe the best way to learn is to read the smartest people in the world as recognized by the world, history and the univesities, e.g. Shakespear, Robert Frost, Plato, Huxley's, Mark twain, Will Rogers, HL Mencken, Bertrand Russel,Einstein, Tolstoy, George Bernard shaw, Steinbeck, JD Salinger, and on and on Baudelair, Voltair, Will durant, Gertrude Stein, Camus, Sartre. .


>>Why do you think Bill Maher is brilliant? Because he calls everyone an idiot?

If you let guys like him trumpet for you, he might be right.

Al of the above have been recognized as the intellectual giants of the human species.
