Viewing Bill Maher's show repeat now and discussion after panel conservatives

predictably came down on taxes and govt., bad!; Dodd Frank and banks, good!
Susan Sarandon added important points about Bernie's campaign, message and supporters that she thinks will win him the Dem. nomination. And she refrained from swimming into the issue of Berners who say they won't vote Hillary.

A good job done by Amy Goodman outlining the travesty of the Anita Hill, Clarence Thomas proceedings in 1991 esp. Biden's involvement on the Senate Judiciary Committee and the exclusion of other women witnesses, when Bush Sr. was POTUS and there were only 2 women in the Senate. At the end, Maher brought up public support of tax free churches since 1970, and now when atheism is increasing in the US. *Any thoughts?
