He’s smart, he’s funny, he’s not afraid to tell it like it t-i-is, and he loves giving us brownies the high hard one!!!

Give it up for Bill Maher, who’s been a favorite of mine for a very long time, ever since Politically Incorrect first debuted on Comedy Central.

He can crack a Bush funny and please a sistah at the same time, which is no small feat (either of them, considering one might get you investigated by the CIA and failure to do the other might get your johnson bitten off). Bill insists it’s not just a color thing, though:

“People say I’m into black women,” says Maher. “Robert De Niro is into black women. I’m just into women who are real, and they happen to be black.”

You tell ’em, Bill!!! Keeping speaking truth to power and the black girls will keep on being here for you.

Of course, Karrine’s got him now, and she seems to have tamed the man who, for the longest, loudly proclaimed he wasn’t for settling down.

Way to go, girl!!! Show ’em how it’s done. Because nothing says “power couple”…

…like a spot-on, funny, ain’t-scared-to-say-shit kinda man paired with an in-your-face woman who’s not afraid to spill her guts and take on the world.
