REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER
HBO, 10:00 p.m. ET
Bill Maher is going to take to the air just as we learn whether Congress and the White House managed to come to a last-minute compromise to avoid preordained budget cuts – or, once again, failed to cooperate and compromise, and thus failed to act. One of Maher’s guests tonight, fittingly, is someone who’s not afraid to flip-flop. He’s the hip-hop artist known as Snoop Lion – who, not too long ago, was the Artist Formerly Known as Snoop Dogg. I’m not Lion.
