On "Real Time With Bill Maher" Friday night, Maher and his panel tackled both the GOP's War on Women and its first friendly-fire casualty, former RIAA president-cum-Democratic-strategist Hilary Rosen. Maher first noted that former Governor Mitt Romney (R-MA), the presumptive GOP nominee, is less popular with women in polls than the GOP's last presidential contender, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), but suggested that the media was stupid for falling all over itself to cover Rosengate: "Perhaps America is a society that lives to find stupid, inconsequential, meaningless controversies and this is the new one."
