You might want to turn on CNN. Bill Maher is kicking George Bush's butt on Larry King Live.

Screw it -- the Democrats should run this guy in '08. Bill Maher-Jon Stewart. Or Stewart-Maher. People whose instict is to return fire when they're attacked, and to do it with poise and wit. Republicans campaigning ... abusive drunk hecklers at the Laff Spot in Waukegan, Illinois on a Tuesday night -- what's the difference in discourse level?

...Yeah, Maher is all over the ideological map. Yeah, he takes a lot of shots at Kerry and the Democrats. But the body blows on Bush were really bracing -- I want that from my candidate.
