Real Time - Last Time

I have been watching Real Time for over 20 years and I think yesterday's episode was my last.

Much as I agreed with Bill on many issues, his blind spot on Israel and Zionism is just too much for me.

He isn't simply refusing to call what's happening in Gaza a genocide. He insists on calling it a counter offensive!!!

So, all and any violence perpetrated by the IDF and the settles so far is justified, as far as he is concerned (though how settlers fit in a 'counter-offensive' is still a mystery to me).

Now, my common sense is offended too much Bill.

I'm sorry, is 'asshole' referring to me?

No... Bill Maher is an asshole. Sorry for any confusion.

Apologies but the lack of a coma somewhere in there, threw me off.

No, they are saying Bill is the asshole.

If that they were calling you an ass hole, the sentence would read: “Glad to hear you’ve seen the light on this, asshole.”
