content: I wouldn't compare Bill Maher to the radical left. He has the option of never inviting republicans to Real Time, and yet he does, and often they're the majority of the panel. He gives them an opportunity to speak and mocks their bad ideas, which is how it should be. I've watched a lot of Real Time and I often see him take a back seat when the panel is debating; I don't see much of him shouting people down except for when he has to regain control for the show or move on to the next issue / segment. Also, not all liberals are pro-censorship. Bill and I are fairly close on the political spectrum (I believe in vaccines though) and we both detest it. Remember, his job is to entertain - he's a political comic, not a comical politician.
