Bill Maher on "progressophobia"

His point here is evergreen but feels timely on Loving Day. My one quibble with what he says is that I don’t think the left sincerely believes things are worse now than ever.

The sea change in public opinion on gay marriage, for instance, is a matter of simple statistical fact.
