Nov 2017

He's an equal opportunity irritant to his guests, interrupting both genders, important and not so important people. It's irritating, but that's his style.

I don't always agree with him, but he is outspoken and doesn't hold back in his opinions. He was the first one I heard to call out birtherism as "crazy." He had a birther on as a guest, and he interrupted him constantly, and finally said, "That's just crazy. Crazy talk."

Yeah, he doesn't seem to be crazy about Hillary Clinton. I don't recall how he feels about Bill.
