...did it seem to anyone else that she was given more time to talk than anyone else there? She really was irritating, and I agree that she not very bright, either.

As for KO, I think he purposely held back, in part because he tends to do that when he's not on his own show. Even when he's on Bill Maher's show. But, the network shows tend to be more milquetoast compared to the cable shows of that genre, so taking that into consideration, I think he didn't want to cause any controversy. I hope he shows up on this program on a more regular basis.
