Takes a genius to hone your craft and adapt to change


Counter-culture 70's to the utopian 80's, he had to adapt to each decade or become obsolete. I don't like how people treat veterans of their craft or once best people that slowly wane in time as useless or because 'times have changed'. Like treating them as consumer toys to be entertained or we forget you shtick. They're human too you know. He worked so much his whole life and had to adapt many times to change his comedic bits to keep staying relevant. I'm glad later on in life he was able to spend more time with his wife since when he worked a lot, she was at home alone which is a recipe for bad relationships to develop or affairs to occur. Glad she was a really loyal wife that stood by him through thick and thin. I think Maher is going through that phase as well. Recently his comedy bits or New Rules have right-wingers liking him now.

It's not right-wingers who find themselves agreeing with Maher. It's just sane people. No tribe necessary.
