I agree completely. How is the Emmy decided? Is it just a popularity contest? I just wonder if it's because Maher can piss people off. He's liberal of course, but he doesn't always toe the liberal line that some of the lefties would like.
I'm a huge fan of Bill, particularly his take on religion (absolutely loved
Religulous), but I still find him occasionally annoying. One of the things he does that gets to me is his constant characterization of Americans as stupid, ignorant and fat. (I, for one, don't feel that fat.) Sure, we have some of that, but it's not like America has the market cornered on it.
But, like I say, I'm a fan and never miss a show (although I admit to fast forwarding through somme of the panel when they get mired in the weeds).
