I haven't pressed play, but he looks awesome.

He's the guy in the robes, right?

on "politically incorrect" i thought he was like a breath of fresh air, if not exactly a drink of champagne. a bit like lenny bruce but with the sharp edges polished off.

Bill Maher?

I've watch his act, and I don't think he is funny or interesting. Others would disagree, but so what? I don't join any personality cult just because it has a lot of members.

He's comedian with a partisan edge, so of course people of the opposite alignment aren't going to be fond of him.

He comes off as a bit of an arrogant douche.
I sometimes agree with what he has to say. but most of the time not.
His political opinions are a bit too mainstream for me.

Rhetorical question. Possibly pointing out the OP's overblown assumption that people generally know or care about whoever this person is.
