22. I don't think that all conservatives |

are "righties". I believe that catch-all labels like that are both a tactic of the right wing, and a trap that many ideologues fall into. I hate to see the left use that argument.
I find nothing wrong with trying to get a balanced audience, and Maher is often embarrassed by the left wing slant of his audiences, as am I. Why shouldn't he get an audience that will give both sides a fair chance before making up it's mind?
Also, I agree with your libertarian assessment, but to me, the guy's first and last, a comedian! I shudder whenever he goes off on one of his "we're poisoning our children with processed food" rants, but in the end, I watch a comedian because he makes me laugh.
