I don't know who else watched Real Time tonight but in general the show was not too much fun to watch IMO. He brought on Matt Drudge's buddy Andrew Breitbart to bloviate about Rush Limbaugh and the Republicans not being racist and then sit and play the victim after he and Michael Eric Dyson got into it on the subject of racism and the right wing's use of "code words" to drum up racial hatred.

Fortunately next week's panel looks like something I'll enjoy a bit more with Keith Olbermann, Bernie Sanders and Kerry Washington slated as the guests on the ticker when the show ended.

Maher did make up for it with his New Rules segment where he took our sorry ass excuse for news-tainment to task for allowing Bobby Jindal (R-Exorcistland) unfettered air time without ever being asked about this.

Can you help us out?
