Hmm.. didn't know Roseanne used to be a socialist?
I don't agree with all of Maher's opinions, but I do like that he added a little bit extra context there to her political activities... and he is actually funny, compared to other comedians/hosts.
Also, they called for his head too as GiRTH posted?...
Both sides (left/right) have gone after Maher in the past, so he is no stranger to PC controversy himself and threats by the mob to have his show pulled... so he has reason to sympathize with her I think.
I still remember when he made the house n***ers joke on his show and then I think the next week after the backlash, they had him sit down some Black dude while they went through all the motions to correct/admonish him... all for the cameras of course.
Bill Maher has been a public racist for a long time. Here are the receipts.
