Why Bill Maher gives Ann Coulter a platform

Bill Maher has a reason for giving Ann Coulter a platform. The gist of it is that Ann Coulter is a polar opposite of himself, and keeping her around keeps him sharp.

Mr. MAHER: Well, contrary to popular belief, it's not sex. She's just my friend, and people think it's all based on pillow talk. But I promise you we're just friends, but we're really good friends.

And one thing that doing that show taught me was that you can become friends with people who you absolutely disagree with, and I think people should. One reason I'm able to do that is because, first of all, I'm only 99 percent certain I'm right about anything, and I think everyone should have that

attitude. If you don't, it's arrogant. It's arrogant to think that you absolutely, 100 percent, know you're right about anything. So, you know, who knows? I could get up to the pearly gates and find out Ann Coulter had it all right. I doubt it, however.

Whoring out VD?

I'm sure you're getting some kickback for your "exclusive" day+ old Bill Maher borefest videos but now a "Year of the Dog" movie tie-in contest?????

Geesh.

What's next? American Idol sneak previews? Maybe you can get Little Richard to an ad for you just like he does for everybody who's willing to pay him. Who else can you sell out to? Maybe a Coke or Pepsi logo all over on the page. I got a million ideas... since you have none, let me know if you need some more ways to ruin what used to be an interesting daily feature.

@Jason Wolfe from Newhall

So, Maher uses a shrill talentless hack as a foil. That's setting the bar for himself quite low, no?
