Welp, MAHER took a lousy shot at COLBERT in tonight's "Overtime".

[UTUSN]

22. I specified my having seen MAHER-COLBERT clashes, and adding here MAHER's *stated* personal animosity.

I "saw" (on his show, videos) say that he has literal contempt for COLBERT's career choices, which means resentment for succeeding on the network where MAHER was cancelled from a network.

I can concede that the comment was framed as a mild joke but he was *gloating* over COLBERT's being offed from a network show, the way MAHER has whined forever about his Politically Correct being offed from ABC. It's generous of you to give MAHER the benefit of being sympathetic to "someone" needing job/money, but my strong assurance is that it was *very* personal and gloating. He said it with a little smirk. As for being "fired," he wasn't as COLBERT said, not "replaced." The whole show was cancelled. And there is no quesiton that COLBERT will have a totally successful rest of his life and career.

The YouTube is out there easy to find, "Overtime". I didn't and won't post it because there are tons of threads here about blanket-hating MAHER and it's at the point that that contingent seems to consider him taboo on DU. I don't defend him, and dislike the parts of him that give comfort to MAGAts, but one of our Lib characteristics is to look within to find improvement and the parts of him that irritate his blanket-haters come under the heading of constructive criticism for correcting wrong strategies and pointing to improving chances of winning.
