What Bill Maher Said

Comedian Bill Maher appeared on MSNBC's Hardball with Chris Matthews yesterday (you can watch the video clip here), discussing, among other things, his reaction to Barack Obama's speech about race:

"It was such a pleasure to hear a speech for adults, to adults, that didn't pander, that was eloquent.

You know, it's like reading a book nowadays, Chris, you know, so much writing...it's not really writing. You read a John Grisham book and it's like you know it's just an outline for the script for the movie.

And then, once in a while you read great writing, and you go, Ohhh, what a pleasure. And that's what it was like to listen to that speech, for me."
