Elizabeth Hasselbeck is an attractive Republican lady not afraid to speak her mind about Republican issues. Some might say she is a pin-up for the kind of American that abhors pin-ups. Others might say that she won't shut up about what is on her mind. A member of the latter category would be über-left-wing talk show host and comedian Bill Maher, who was interrupted by Elizabeth for almost the entire duration of his interview. 

From helping to get creeps kicked off movie sets to hosting the Internet's finest faux talk show, it's clear Zach Galifianakis has gotten comfortable in the Hollywood spotlight. So comfortable, in fact, that the formerly underground stand-up, who's currently making the rounds promoting a movie in which he costars alongside Robert Downey Jr. and a French bulldog, smoked a joint on Friday's Real Time With Bill Maher.

I've got a heavy man-crush on Bill Maher, so much so that it aches my heart. His anti-religion views are right up my alley (sorry, God), and his deft mix of political clarity and edgy humour is often spot on. Not only that, but his HBO show Real Time With Bill Maher is home to some of the sharpest political commentary and debates on television, and are often must-see in these historic times. Maher is currently doing the rounds to promote his new faith-mocking documentary Religulous, and this morning, got himself in some hot holy water with the feisty ladies on a Barbara Walters-less The View.

The sardonic comedian delivers fire and brimstone

Religion makes for an obvious and easy target for a libertarian provocateur like Bill Maher, and judging by the trailer for his upcoming sacred-skewering doc Religious, Maher takes aim and hits the bulls-eye. Directed by "Curb Your Enthusiasm"/"Seinfeld"/Borat helmer Larry Charles, this should be positively divine.
