Bill Maher has the distinction of being the First American To Be Threatened By The Bush Administration! The President's censorious Press Secretary, Ari Fleischer, responded to one of Maher's Politically Incorrect quips about the current White House Reign of Terror - to combat Global Terrorism - with a warning that people had better be careful about what they say. This show will do nothing to reassure John Ashcroft that Maher has mended his ways. He presses all the buttons: Weapons of Mass Destruction, Regime Change, Tax Cuts for the Rich, Cuts in Social Services for the Poor, Freedom for Iraq, Freedom Fries, and so forth and so on.
There is a TV monitor mounted on the balcony railing so he can check out short-titles of his stand-up-comedy topics & targets. Maher even fields questions from the audience, though some people are determined to make statements, rather than ask his opinions. His spontaneous replies are in fact often both amusing and thoughtful. Don't miss this show! The run is limited, but surely it could be extended? There is a Market for Political Dissent.
