I love me some Dennis Miller.

He handed it to Burton tonight. :)

Dennis Miller was so much better before his career as a comedian collapsed. Now he’s just the male Victoria Jackson or the younger Pat Boone, trying to keep his fame alive as a FOX regular.
Miller is the only person to have his show canceled more often than Dick Cavett.

wait, wait… Dennis miller was a comedian? like he told jokes and stuff like that? the thought of that is funnier than him.

He’s got a popular radio show in LA. Miller is doing just fine.

Even the diehard Republicans realize what a joke this lot is, and it’s the cream of the GOP crop… or should I say, crap? 

Dennis Miller is putz. He was liberal when he thought that had the biggest audience and now that he got older he is conservative. He is a lying piece of crap. Screw Dennis Miller. He is an oportunist and a flip flopper.

 Well at least Dennis is blaming these idiots for their crappy debate and not the station that hosted it.

Obama has his problems going into this election but the Republican field is a joke. Romney will probably be the nominee but he has some serious flip flop problems. 

Expect Obama to paint Romney as a “John Kerry” elitist. Remember… “I’m worth $200 million but unemployed like you folks.” remember that?

“Pithy?” Nothing ‘pithy’ about Dennis Miller, verbose, overblown, convoluted, tortured…perhaps; but ‘pithy?’ Never.

What’s a joke is your typing skills. Since you’re going to be commenting, please work on them.

That is all. :)

Shame on this site giving the complete loser Dennis Miller credit for this line..  1st of all, it’s been used many times before..  2nd of all, he stole it from the media at large.. mostly the networks.. Miller did NOT come up with it himself..  

lmao..   pathetic attempt WC

what line are referring to?

If only Huntsman had shown up, we would have had Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

I enjoy Miller.  He’s got some great lines that befuddle O’Reilly which usually cracks me up.  

That’s about right. Obama doesn’t have an easy reelection, but the Republicans are bending over backwards to set him up for a second term.

“What’s a joke is your typing skills.”
If you’re going to be calling out other commenters in this petty fashion, you may want to learn basic grammar.

Consider avoiding the passive voice by omitting “to be” from the above post.

Um, no attempt. I lived by LA and I listened to his show. Seeing as he’s got a job and he stands up for the military, he’s a fine human being.

Go back to using high school terms on the net.

What is a joke is your typing skills. Same tone. Is is modifying typing skills which is one skill, with repeated behavior.

The best part was when Miller dissed that moron Burton. Great if Mediaite could cue that one up but poor Tommy Chritopher would lose one of his buds.

I swear that you said months ago that you wouldn’t talk to me. However, you keep talking and talking and talking.

Odd.

Huntsman is a girl?

Obama has an easy re-election. He’s got the media in his pocket. Simple as that.

Regardless, the nation won’t be ok for another four years because whoever “wins” will be ineffective period. All the candidates are horrible on both sides of the aisle.

Come on dummy….you can do some thinking here!

Why do you talk to me? You never have anything credible to say. Please refrain from talking to me. It’ll be better that way. Your stress levels will decrease and you can spend more time working out. Seems like you need the endorphin release.

Thats untrue. Dennis Miller like myself was a non-political liberal until 9/11 happened. We both started paying attention to politics at that point and realized what complete hypocrites and un-American the Democratic party was when they started politicizing the war on terrorism and outright lying that they didnt believe that Iraq had WMD’s. 

No way that was me. I think you’re hilarious.  Really looking forward to the epic Sarah Palin debates.

Also, you used the passive voice. Pretty shabby work for a person with a master’s degree.

Wow, 12 more debates?!?  By the last debate they will be arguing what kind of Kleenex they’ll use when they lose the election to Obama.  

There’s not an apostrophe in masters. There is nothing wrong with using passive voice in this instance. Either is fine. The joke is your typing skills or your typing skills is a joke. You make no sense, but do go on.

 It was funny anyway, watching Bill try not to laugh, was funnier.

HMMM. Let’s see for the fairy tale challenged. At the debate, there was one female and six males. You can do the math when you bring in Huntsman.

dennis miller is not funny and his voice is extremely tiring. But hey, he stands up for the military and says god bless america a lot and sh!t. yeah, if patriotism was an Olympic sport he could win gold! 

Go on? If you say so….

First of all…

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/master%27s+degree

Sorry.

Second of all, “fine” isn’t the same as correct.

Lastly,

“your typing skills is a joke.”

Really?

Will you marry me?

The dummy proves itself to be dumb once again.

She’s been to fourteen colleges. You think YOU can set her straight?

By your logic since you don’t have a job you’re not a ‘fine human being’. 

So you couldn’t make it out here on the west coast and left the sunshine for the comfort of you parents house!

What’s up with your self esteem?

My guess is that Miller got caught up in some Faustian bargain at a low point in his career, or his life in a  way that made him question his career, or anyway something really sad for him. The Jackson and Boone comparisons remain fair so long as we don’t have access to his anxieties. But with someone as volatile as Miller, that could change: the CEO of Media Matters was a full-blooded Republican rat f**ker before he ame to his senses one day – it’s rare, but it happens. 

And since this rant is actually one of his BETTER ones in – well, I think ever since he made that Faustian deal, we could be seeing here some manifestation of just such a change. After all, as he says, there are 12 more of these exhibitions in monkeyshines yet to go, and it makes sense that the other candidates are now going to try to use Nevada as a template for going after Romney (Besides which, each of the commercial networks at least are now going to try to TOP Vegas, so this could get not just crazier, but a LOT crazier.). But the larger point is, hey, Miller might just be getting his mojo back, soon to realize he should be lickin’ his chops at this and chowin’ down with the rest of the comedy hyenas. Maybe he can convince the folks at the places he’s headed back to that this guy on Fox the last several years was some fake and he’s the real Marin Guerre returning. Maybe he could get a sharp surgeon to make a couple of scars on his forehead that look as if he’s been sick but now is fixed.

Clowns are by nature sad, but conservative clowns are particularly screwed because they don’t even get to riff off the truth. The best thing that ever happened to the career of George Carlin was when he woke up one morning and realized his Al Sleet routine was just a stereotypical slander on hippies, and he could redeem his self respect by dumping that for truth-telling.

That praying mantis’ in the jar image, that was promising. Time will tell. Good luck, Dennis: if you’re headed back, remember it gets better.

Well, Stewart and Colbert stand up for the troops, and so did Franken – and a lot more effectively. Colbert’s been over there, and Franken went over there again and again. After a while, the troops can tell the difference between who’s talking the talk and who’s walking the walk.

Those last two qualify him to be on stage with the leading Republican candidates.

Projection – your problem. Hey, where are them pesky WMDs anywho – not under this here presidential seal; not under the Oval Office desk; it’s a real puzzle.

Hey, aren’t you … nah.

Miller is lots funnier when he’s not trying to do comedy.

Actually must be syndicated or something, because I listen to him and I am not in CA!

Yup..jokes and stuff…it didnt work out to well when he was doing the espn thing either, that is why they canx him. 

Damn that man is so not funny in any way.  Can someone please quote ONE funny thing this “comedian” has said since he has been with fox?

Dennis Miller:
“Liberals should not overplay this weapons of mass destruction
card, because you want me to tell you the truth? Most of us are not going to
care if they don’t find these weapons of mass destruction. It’s enough for a lot
of us to see those kids smiling on that street again.”

And there in lies the lesson.

First, Bachmann, then Perry, now Cain.  By the time all the debates are over, it will be the witch lady?  Perhaps, Trump again..who knows.

Pew Foundation has the definitive poll on that very subject. Google it. It shows that the top 55 or so corporation-owned news media slant 85-15 against Obama. This is why Obama is morphing into FDR, who famously said: I welcome their hatred. 

This allows for a segue out of this pit for the convinced. The first fact is, no one who currently is committed to vote Republican is going to vote otherwise; they might not vote, but if they do, it’ll be against Obama. The second fact is, no one who is currently disappointed in the Republican Congressional games is going to vote Republican. The third is all Dems are going to vote Dem, if they’re allowed to vote – no matter how the right tries to spin it, Obama retains the support of all the Dems who voted for him in 2008 who will be allowed to vote in 2012. The fourth fact is that the folks on and supporting OWS may not vote, but if they do vote, they’ll vote Dem.

But that’s still not enough. In 2008 Obama won with independents, and he’ll probably need to again, or at least break even with them, to win again in 2012. So, this entire show, including these first-through-twentieth act clowns, are important. Nothing that gets said HERE will be important to how many independents turn out or who they vote for, but what goes on in these RNC debates is in fact important, because SOME independents are watching them, and a lot more of them are going to see sound-bites from them in 2012. 

The history of American presidential elections since the death of FDR have largely, not completely, been characterized over the ability of Dem candidates to enthuse the various Dem bases and draw no worse than even among independents. Truman did that, barely, in 1948. Kennedy did that, even more barely, in 1960. Humphrey almost pulled 1968 out of the fire, but there wasn’t enough time for the party to recover from the Chicago riots at the DNC and the double assassination – but it was actually close. Carter actually made a big surge at it in 1980, and couldn’t quite close the deal – some say (and we still don’t know one way or the other, but probably will over time) because the older Bush made a deal with the Iranians to hold onto the American hostages until after the election – when Reagan announced the deal to release as his very first presidential business item – to embarrass Carter and halt his surge. Clinton got the various Dem bases just enthused enough to win twice, and independents even broke against him but not enough to stop him. Gore just could not get the Dems excited, but they still won; the Supreme Court took that away. Kerry had the same closer deficit Carter had and failed.

The threads that run through all those are: 1) that the Dems’ various bases came out, and … actually that’s it. Where the Dems held their bases and those bases came out, even when independents broke even or close to even, the Dem won – every time. At no time, not once, has a Dem candidate had the Dems bases come out for him in full and lost. Not once. 

So, the issue comes down to enthusiasm – which comes down to hope, ideally, but sometimes fear. I can assure you that the Dem bases are NOT unified behind Obama, but that they ARE unified AGAINST whoever turns out to be the Republican nominee – unless it’s Romney. But the trade-off for that is that the Republican base is even less enthusiastic about Romney than they were about McCain. What unifies the Republican base is hatred, not fear.

So, in 2012, we have fear versus hatred, a classic battle of hugely motivating emotions. But fear can turn into courage or into despair, and we don’t know now where that will go. Hatred, though, has nowhere else to go; it can beat despair, easily; it can beat fear, sometimes; it cannot beat courage.

As of now there are SEVENTEEN more GOP debates scheduled between November and May, so far !!!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_republican_debates

I love me some neocon puppet action!
A proposed 1 trillion-dollar deficit cut, a concrete plan about ending the wars and a constitutional policy of denying foreign aid, especially to Israel?
Bah, nothing worth mentioning there at all! 
Except maybe that of all the Bilderberg-goers (Romney, Perry, Cain, Gingrich, and hey! Obama and Clinton too) Romney is Bill and Dennis’ favorite and is the clear front-runner according to all the “scientific” polls put together behind closed doors which none of us actually vote on. Let us not discuss ANY polls where the actual PEOPLE vote as a matter of fact… Those polls are insignificant.
No, let Fox tell us what’s important: Only big government, perpetual war, and continuous “terror plots” so we can hate new people every day until all our national wealth is gobbled up by the criminal banksters who have hijacked our government and our children are left homeless and starving, and anyone who says otherwise is anti-semitic or anti-American or is a terrorist or some such other stupid propaganda garbage.
That’s what’s important.
Fox rules.

No.   At least 17 more.

You can tell how far Miller has fallen off the reality grid by the fact he has dumpster diving dirtbag Andrew Breitbart subbing for him on the radio.

Dumb & Dumber. Which is which?

“I enjoy Miller”……………….. you do mean the beer don’t you?

Funny? What was funny? Two idiots?

Popular? Local Radio show? Miller doing just fine? Make me laugh!

You think Dennis Miller is an idiot? Seriously?!?!?!

Opposites attract?

Why must you respond when the idiot pulls your pigtails?

Yes, I truly do! Not funny. Never! Not even any whit. Plus he made Monday Night Football almost unwatchable the one year they had him before they canned him. He Sucks!!!!!

Even die hard republicans can’t stand their own candidates and all of their BS

canceled by ABC, canceled by HBO, canceled by CNBC, fired from MNF, canceled as host of FOX News comedy show attempt, movie career dead.
And some low-rated radio show makes up for that? LOL

So he doesn’t want the public to know the candidates before voting for them, typical. 

Dennis Miller was one of the most brilliant comedians of his time before 9/11 then he changed.  He got soo serious about his conservative views that he abandoned all sense of balance and humor.  There is still a funny man in there its just that he is smothered by his own fear and bitterness.

A loss for my starving funnybone…

Check out this history test my 3rd grade daughter just brought home..
See also: The Princess and the Cowherd

In late summer, the stars Altair and Vega are high in the night sky, and the Chinese tell the following love story, of which there are many variations:

A young cowherd, hence Niulang (Chinese: 牛郎; pinyin: niú láng; literally “[the] cowherd”), came across a beautiful girl–Zhinü (Chinese: 織女; pinyin: zhī nǚ;
literally “[the] weavergirl”), the seventh daughter of the Goddess, who
just had escaped from boring heaven to look for fun. Zhinü soon fell in
love with Niulang, and they got married without the knowledge of the
Goddess. Zhinü proved to be a wonderful wife, and Niulang to be a good
husband. They lived happily and had two children.

But the Goddess of Heaven
(or in some versions, Zhinü’s mother) found out that Zhinü, a fairy
girl, had married a mere mortal. The Goddess was furious and ordered
Zhinü to return to heaven. (Alternatively, the Goddess forced the fairy
back to her former duty of weaving colorful clouds, a task she neglected
while living on earth with a mortal.)

On Earth, Niulang was very upset that his wife had disappeared.
Suddenly, his ox began to talk, telling him that if he killed it and put
on its hide, he would be able to go up to Heaven to find his wife.

Crying bitterly, he killed the ox, put on the skin, and carried his
two beloved children off to Heaven to find Zhinü. The Goddess discovered
this and was very angry. Taking out her hairpin, the Goddess scratched a
wide river in the sky to separate the two lovers forever, thus forming
the Milky Way between Altair and Vega.

Zhinü must sit forever on one side of the river, sadly weaving on her
loom, while Niulang watches her from afar while taking care of their
two children (his flanking stars β and γ Aquilae or by their Chinese names Hè Gu 1 and Hè Gu 3).

But once a year all the magpies in the world would take pity on them and fly up into heaven to form a bridge (鵲橋, “the bridge of magpies”, Que Qiao) over the star Deneb in the Cygnus constellation so the lovers may be together for a single night, which is the seventh night of the seventh moon.

Strangely what Milller says has merit here. Sadly, nobody is getting voted off. I think Huntsman was right to give it a miss, because they’ll be plenty more…

Apart from Bachmann wearing a rather eye catching Naval jacket is anyone any the wiser about who and what they dislike?Another 12 more debates like this?!? 

…On the other hand it does show Americans just how really weak and tepid the Candidates are for Republican Party.

Who would of thought, Dennis Miller, voice of truth on the right. Yes, that debate was a set-up by the liberals over at CNN who managed to pit the candidates directly against each other, in a format that encouraged antagonism, and all at the expense of the collective republican cause. Only Newt’s stock really rose by his observation of the wreck as it was happening. Though, even he would not have imagined the actual carnage that would be wrought by the candidates. In particular, the golden child’s chafing of Perry was shameful.

He was a head writer on SNL for years, and his HBO show was on for nine years, and he managed to win a handful of Emmys in that time.

CNN is owned by TimeWarner – they are on track to make $28,000,000,000 this year.  Why would a huge corporation like that hire ‘liberals’ to make the Republican presidential candidates look bad thus helping President Obama?  Wouldnt that be working against the best interests of the shareholders?  That does not seem likely.

What does seem likely is that giant media corporations know something you do not.  TimeWarner knows that what ‘liberals’ say or do does not really matter – Corporations own the government because they pay all the politicians.  TimeWarner also knows that getting you all riled up over liberals a-la Jerry Springer is good for the teevee business.

You are a pawn, a speck to them

I find it laughable, all of you liberals pounding on Miller.  Twenty years ago he was “one of you” and you all loved him.  What I think bothers you the most is Miller is the perfect example of the old addage:

“If you are not a liberal at 20, you have no heart. If you are not
Conservative by 40, you have no brain.”

Ron Silver, God rest his soul, was another example of someone finally poking his head out of the comfortable, liberal hole he lived in and found a world, fraught with danger and knowing damn well liberals didn’t have the stones to confront.

With the loot he’s got from his “lame” radio show and Fox appearances are more than enough and give him purpose.  HBO show was a hit for years, his movie/tv troubles have more to do with him converting to Conservative from liberal 10 plus  years or so ago. you know LIBERAL Hollywood.  But what you liberal filth miss is his honesty on calling the Repub effort out.  Something the LOSERS on MSNBC would never do…. attack their “own”.  Something Miller does often….wake up.

The joke strides in the White House with his nose up while Rome burns.

The joke strides in the White House with his nose up while Rome burns.

Miller grew up from liberal when he had his first child, his words.  Liberals and their dreamy phony worlds.  Join reality.

Fail.  Skill is singular.  Typing skills is plural.  You can answer the question of plurality by  asking ‘how many’ – if its more than one it is plural.  Is the ‘joke’ his typing (singular) or his ‘skills’ (plural).

You could say ‘What’s a joke is your typing.’  or ‘What is a joke are your typing skills.’  Even when corrected for agreement the first sentence here here is still passive voice and poor grammar.

9/11 changed a lot of us, one way or another.  Far from bitter, I think Miller is one of the most astute satirists.   He manages to part the fluff and find the meat.  

I’m sorry you feel he is smothered.  I think he calls them as he sees them and manages to needle both sides when needed.  

A brilliant guy, writes his own stuff and truly makes some remarkable observations.  

Those WMD’s are in the same place Mr. and Mrs Clinton, Albright, Al gore, Colin Powell and on and on (see utube for dozens of Dems going on about wmd’s in 1998 to 2002) said they were real and that Saddam must go.  Facts. Real puzzle is how LIBS/Dems  first flipped/flopped then their press buries it.

true this one is for the repubs to lose.  Howvwer the distorting/editing liberal Press is good at what it does.  LIE by omission.

middle America and dependents and more importantly this year the working class are all done with this phony.  Says 1 thing…wait 1 day says another…wait 1 day acts another. ME,WE the middle class are done with Loser O-Bam-A.  May healthhcare went up 10% this year, 8% last.  I’m done paying for the liberal loser’s on this page healthcare.

Miller is funny to the well read and intelligent.

he says having children and 911 forced him to grow up and out of Liberalism.  In Hollywwod thats a career killer.

only the well read and intelligent get it, sorry.

only honest thinkers call out their own unlike MSNBC and you.

your youth betrays you

you don’t deal well with the truth do you?  That’s a shame.

what do the other channels say is important?  

Fox forgot to tell me.  Please share.

It helps if you have an i.q. above 100.  He’s a satirist, not a comedian.  Know the difference? (the thinking man’s comic).  

You’re both…

You’re both…

Dana Carvey does a better Dennis Miller than Dennis Miller.

Clip from SNL Weekend Update (21 seconds long) But funny.

If you need OTHER people to tell you what’s important instead of your own self, then you’re hopeless anyway.
Just keep following the herd if that’s all you’re good for.
Otherwise, turn off the corporate media propaganda machine and see what the REST OF THE WORLD is saying. That should give you an indication of what’s true and what’s bald-faced lying.

Back at you my insulting friend.

Miller’s suggestion of a “Survivor’s” format is classic. And the last one will be voted off in November 2012.

Yeah I missed all those pictures of smiling children after Sadaam was removed from power. As I recall there was much joy and celebration by all Iraqis in the months and years following the fall of Sadaam. In fact Iraqis are probably the happiest people on earth right now. Millions of smiling children.

I actually watched the segment in which he talked about Bill Burton last night at least a half dozen times.  I loved it!

He’s on the number one most popular cable news show every week, and there is no evidence that he is leaving.  He also does routines with the host of the number one cable news show,  and the shows also receive very positive reviews.  He must be doing some things well.

Obviously wrong- Miller has to pander to right wingers, you know, the FastCar crowd that neither understands nor respects science. 

Not universally.

LIBERAL Hollywood ??????   You mean like Reagan, Fred Thompson, Sonny Bono, Arnold.  Yep, you guys sure love to go to the well in “LIBERAL”  Hollywood.

Give them all butter knives, call it Unnatural Selection Surviror…………………..

Bachmann is a girl?

Maybe it’s something that sounds like “pithy.” Perhaps “pissy?” 

What a bummer for you guys that Newscorp is not on your side. You could use some help.

And I mean that in the nicest way possible.

Yes, you too are being fucked up the ass with the insurance industry’s broken bottle. And your response is to blame the people who are trying to correct the situation.

Which goes to prove the point that while survival of the fitter is a scientific given, it doesn’t always work in individual cases.

The Democratic party “started politicizing the war on terrorism . . .”

Wow. Just wow.

The greatest danger faced by the US at this point in history is the increasing number of ignorant, dumb-as-dirt people who are so easily manipulated by those smarter than them. That’s what got Germany in so much trouble (also visited upon the world at large) in the 20th century.

Unsurprisingly, you are entirely wrong. The most intense search for WMDs in Iraq — the search that addressed the incomplete and garbled intelligence relied upon by the people you listed in your post — was under way when Butcher Bush decided to invade and kill a couple of hundred thousand civilians.

A search which — even before the inspectors were chased out of Iraq by the US — was finding that there were no WMDs. Which Bush knew, and Rumsfeld knew, and Tommy Franks knew, but which Congress did not.

I wouldn’t use the word “facts” in any of your posts if I were you. You’re really not qualified to do so.

Whatever, it’s still the gooey stuff that floats to the top.
