Adios, Bill - Bill Maher

Adios, Bill - Bill Maher and Politically Incorrect were exasperatingly...well, politically correct. He invariably claimed "I'm a libertarian", while his rhetoric was pure liberal.

But he is a pretty sharp comic, even if I disagree with him on most things (and let's face it - if I limited my music, comedy and literature to artists I agreed with politically, I'd have a steady diet of Ted Nugent, Drew Carey and Tom Clancy. Although I don't mind Carey and Clancy...). The show was a great showcase for the vapidity of most American celebrities. Maher's panels were corrals of vacuity, groaning in self-congratulation even as their myopia made their "insights" almost too painful to laugh at.

The scary part? What will the desperate ABC come up with to replace it? The mind reels.
