In reply to the discussion: 'West Wing' Star's Wife Unloads on Bill Maher for Attacking Him [View all]misanthrope

I began to notice the pet peeves he inevitably circled back to again and again and again. It became tiresome, then predictable.
Then there were his logical fallacies, and the gaps in his reasoning. It became more and more obvious he wasn't very good at questioning himself or his stances to make sure those positions were sound or defensible. He would rely on woo or poor information, then topped it off with the belief he was smarter than he actually was.
He doesn't listen well and seems to only seek to opine.
