I hate to say this but, .....agreed. That's kinda the point of my post. Coulter this, Maher that, Limbaugh said "slut", Carville looks like an alien......whatever. Slinging mud and stirring up crap is what those people do for a living. Geez, figure it out.

Muckrakers. They have always been with us. And they'll likely continue to push the boundaries of our "tender sensibilities."

My understanding is that Coulter and Loesch are Republican strategists but commentator will do. Those terms really aren't equivalent to a comedian. We all know Maher is an adolescent (when it comes to women) comedian with a potty mouth who thinks he's gods gift to women (which I doubt is factually true). I for one don't take my ques from comedians or rely on them for factual information nor am I so lazy as to let them form my views. I do like John Stewart and Steven Colbert considerably more than Maher but these are all entertainers and not pundits who are trying to detail and/or form peoples opinions. These comedians live in such a target rich environment of late and the question has to be asked, who is providing so much ammunition to them? Me I'm just a working carpenter/ plumber/ chief bottle washer and ex roofer but I like to actually read both sides, sometimes all three sides of an argument before making up my own mind. [B]Yes I've been known to shoot from the hip from time to time and also to be blunt to a fault (a minor character flaw in my estimation, heh,heh,heh.)It's a roofer thang..
I do agree with about John Stewart and Steven Colbert. I actualy like them myself even if they do lean left. They hit on both sides.

I disagree with you about Maher he dosnt play both sides in his opioin based new show. He is a far left social libertarian...

From Wiki
"Real Time with Bill Maher is a talk show that airs weekly on HBO, hosted by comedian and political satirist Bill Maher. Much like his previous show, Politically Incorrect on ABC (and before that, on Comedy Central), Real Time features a panel of guests that discuss current events in politics and the media. Unlike the previous show, however, guests are usually more well-versed in the subject matter: more experts such as journalists, professors and politicians participate in the panel, and there are fewer actors and celebrities included in it. Additionally, many guests appear via satellite. Also, Politically Incorrect was produced four days a week and was pre-recorded, while Real Time only produces one episode a week which is broadcast live."

Now plug in anyone you wish in that setting; Sean Hannity, Allen Combs, Dennis Miller or Al Franken....

Would you know what side they are on...? I think so. Thats why I see it as an disingenuous argument...

But then again this is only my opinion, and like most things are subjective.

Hmmmm, maybe that come's from all the years I was geeting paid by the square "shrug"

Jim

I used to love mansards $$$$, one aspect of roofing that I've never had the pleasure of was hot tar. Other than a minor repair here and there I stay the hell off of roofs, I don't bounce like I used to.
