I, OTOH, have never been a fan of Maher. But I have thought of him as a smart enough broadcaster to know that "Milo" is not smart or funny enough to make it worth his while to establish any kind of "at least were both courageous enough to criticize Muslims" schtick. Of course for Maher that is

Nicole Bass was broke and 10 years ago or so was on Stern's Sirius show by phone begging for money. Ostensibly she was asking anyone but it seemed like she was really asking Stern for money and he made her do it over the air. It was sad. Howard's solution was for her continuing to wrestle men for
