1. Oooh, looks like a GREAT line-up

Bill seems to really like Howard. Smart boy. ;-)

I hope you'll be reminding us -- for some reason it's SO hard for me to remember to look for Maher's show on Friday nights.

7. Last night Maher let up on O'Neill.

I was a little upset last when Maher, who is so good about forcing people to stand up for their beliefs.....absolutely let the idiot O'Neill rattle on for ages making no sense. He did not confront him as he should have done.

He will expect to Dean to speak clearly, and he should have expected it from O'Neill. I was disappointed. I think Maher does like Dean, and I hope he is fair with him.

I was also very happy with Letterman's compliments to Dean last night. I really appreciated them.

8. I felt the same way

I wonder if it had anything to do with Michelle and how they got on her. maybe he was told by who?? to knock down a bit.

I hate O'Neill and couldn't believe he let him go on like that.

9. I thought he gave O'neil a pass

He allowed him to run that old "we were not in Cambodia" crap. I was yelling NIXON YOU FU**** lying a$$ hole. Maher could not get a straight answer and just changed topics repeatedly.

3. leans left.....

he was on Bill Maher last year and for the most part stayed neutral but you can tell that he leans left.....

4. WooHoo! THAT will be GOOD!

Christiane took a lot of heat for speaking out against the Pentagon using ONLY embedded journalists in Iraq. She was NOT happy about it. Then, we should remember she's married to Jamie Rubin. :) I can't wait to see that show.

5. Excellent lineup. I hope Amanpour is on the panel, not just on satellite.

6. I hope Dean is as well. On the panel, that is.

It is not nearly as good when they are guests.
