That loudmouth Dylan Ratigan is already talking over everybody. Which would be OK because "everybody" includes moran Amy Holmes and some republican mayor.
Ratigan is really in love with the sound of his own voice.
NCAA basketball is a much better choice tonight.
BTW Alexandra Pelosi doesn't appear to be very bright.

(21,925 posts)He can't seem to blame the right without also blaming the left on any matter. The other panel members are douchebags especially Holmes.
One of the 99
(2,280 posts)He can't defend his own side so he attacks both instead.

(24,634 posts)But he is not a Liberal and has said so on his program. He considers himself a conservative leaning Libertarian. But not Liberal.

(20,043 posts)Dylan Ratigan. I haven't watched the show, gonna watch the re-play.
I had to watch Spartacus:Vengeance first.

(31,464 posts)Stop trying to pigeon hole everybody. I disagree with Ratigan a lot. I disagree with Maher, too. I certainly don't have much room for Amy, and that Republican mayor dude...hell, just look at him. I think the best point of the show, though, was after Pelosi's video of the welfare recipients in NYC...like, the Fox News producers heads must be exploding trying to figure out how they'll frame this! The heathen commie liberal Bill Maher and SF bitch Pelosi did a segment showing welfare recipients in a bad light! Oh my goodness!
I am always amused at the number of people who get their panties in a wad over Bill Maher's show. It is consistently inconsistent, which is why I respect it. It's not doctrinaire, it's not Fox, it's not Rachel Maddow. It's a mash-up of opinions, and that's why I enjoy it.

I could use some George Carlin about now.

(23,664 posts)Except maybe the republican mayor whom I will admit I judged on the basis of being a republican mayor. But then you admitted to pigeonholing him as well.
It isn't pigeonholing to say Amy Holmes is stupid, nor to state that Dylan Ratigan is an opinionated, ill informed boor.
And Maher, well, he's sort of a comedian. Sort of.
I just don't prefer to watch crap like this when there are good basketball games on. But that's just my opinion.

(31,464 posts)Every game ends 2-3 points apart. Team A runs to their end of the court, millionaire guy scores; hand ball to Team B which runs to their end of the court where their millionaire guy scores. Repeat ad nauseam. Amy Holmes is equally repetitious and predictable, but at least she's pretty. And I dare say she's not nearly as stupid as those basketball players...although, they're paid a shitload of money to play a game for a couple of hours and...well, so is she.
Never mind...it's a draw.
