That's right! Everyone's favorite pothead told the world tonight that a youth (or Yute, as cousin Vinnie would say) he was a pot dealer. Interviewing Andre Grenier (Vinnie from Entourage), Maher came clean on his felonious past. Not only that, but he confessed to shorting his customers by a fraction of an ounce.
Shocking, I know. Will we ever be able to trust Bill again?
Well, yes, because he juxtaposes himself with buffoons like Horace Cooper.
Who?
Horace is apparently a professor from Texas, an African American who subscribes to the Clarence Thomas theory of everything, including global warming denial, defending the VRA decision, calling being gay a sin, and everything else you can imagine. Horace got worked up about why the VRA didn't protect minorities from voter fraud in Philadelphia and Chicago. Or something.
Fortunately, he was called out to great effect by car writer and unashamed NC liberal Dan Neil. Between Horace and Dan was Kristin Soltis, one of those extremely cute "Republican consultants," who must shuttle back and forth between campaigns and Fox News. Kristin was inoffensive, though both Dan Neil and I predicted her obligatory Solyndra mention in the global warming discussion.
Maher's final New Rule took off from Wendy Davis's filibuster to provide further evidence of the War on Women in opposition to Plan B and HPV vaccine -- an excellent rant of hilarious and pointed outrage, especially at the religious slut-shamers who oppose both.
