21. Sorry, but this is like the idea he hates Muslims

Maher bashes all religions, but for some reason the five minutes he might spend condemning radical Islam is the only thing anyone here wants to complain about while having nothing to say about the fact the rest of the program is ripping the radical Christian nuts ruining this country.

Your own post alone makes his point....that the mere presence of "the other side" so completely angers you that you can't handle it. Any conservative/Republican who goes on his show gets pretty well savaged and spends 95% of the time being a punching bag, the show would be boring as hell without that. It's a lot different than a talking news head inviting a right winger on a news show and not challenging them.
