Ed Finnerty: He should stop commenting on politics and get back to making more episodes of Rescue Me.

Runs_With_Scissors_: Does anyone here remember when Dennis Miller was slightly amusing and somewhat relevant?

I don't know if it's aged well, but he was my favorite Weekend Update anchor back in the day.

BKITU: And Dennis Miller, while popular in Cantonese dialect, is not often found in Washington, D.C.

/got nothin'

Mea culpa worthy, sir.

I remember when Dennis Miller was hot and funny.

Why yes, I am old.

Ennuipoet: Osomatic: The thing is that it also seemed to kill their sense of humor at the same time.

It is not possible to be intentionally funny and Conservative. It is , however, possible to be farking hilarious while espousing your actual opinions.

Victoria Jackson approves.

Dennis Miller is a fascist. *shrugs*

Mugato: Runs_With_Scissors_: Does anyone here remember when Dennis Miller was slightly amusing and somewhat relevant?

Actually I do and he really was. Then 9/11 happened and he went bat shiat insane.


Yeah, I remember when he used to attack anybody, but then suddenly Republicans were off limits.

Sucks, too. During the mid 90s, when his show and Chris Rock were on the air, HBO had some of the funniest writing on TV.

Star classy, Dennis.

Because when I want hard-hitting presidential commentary, I'm going with the guy who starred in Tales from the Crypt: Bordello of Blood.

mikemoto: Now, I don't want to get off on a rant here, but Dennis Miller is holding up as well as an incontinent bladder.


Dennis Miller: I don't want to go on a rant, here, but America's foreign policy makes about as much sense as Beowulf having sex with Robert Fulton at the first battle of Antietam. I mean when a neo-conservative defenestrates it's like Raskolnikov filibuster deoxymonohydroxinate...
Peter: What the hell does rant mean?

Runs_With_Scissors_: Does anyone here remember when Dennis Miller was slightly amusing and somewhat relevant?

of course not but that's why he's doing a publicity tour.

Calmamity: Time to face facts, Dennis: You bet on the wrong horse. You thought that you could regain some popularity after 9-11 by turning your shtick hard to the right, but it isn't working, is it?

Here's the thing Miller, you are trying to be an ineffectual comic playing to an audience who keeps Jeff Dunham employed. Stop it. From all of us man, just stop.

It's just a gig. He's playing to what he thought would be The Next Big Thing. Sadly it turned out to be birtlhers. Its too late for him to come back to the other side. We will read about him being found in a cheap Vegas hotel having succumbed to auto erotic asphyxia in the next couple of years

RexTalionis: Cyberluddite: Why would we be speaking Chin'sa third-most-common language--one that only 70 million of the 1.5 billion people in China speak--when there is another language (Mandarin) that about 1.3 billion people in China speak? I guess they not only all look the same, they all sound the same, huh Dennis?

Looks like we had the same thought at about the same time.

Also, I'd be pretty impressed if people can go from zero Cantonese to proficient Cantonese in 8 months. I know it's possible, but Cantonese has a bunch more tones (7 traditionally, 9 if you count the modified tones) than Mandarin, and the 5 tones in Mandarin seem to give most non-native speakers shiatfits when they try to speak.

Perhaps he is saying if OWS had their way our educational system would be so impressive as to make this a possibility. Sounds like an endorsement to me.

Leaving aside the Dennis Miller trademark "I don't have the slightest farking clue what I'm talking about"-ness as evinced by the "Cantonese" remark, if we started actually enforcing anti-trust laws, adjusted progressive tax rates to something resembling sanity, drew down on military spending and implemented a single-payer health care system... We'd start resembling a country that has a problem with monopolistic business practices and a small power elite, a fairly regressive tax regime and, until recently, a severe public health care problem because they were trying for a shiat-pile adhoc mix like the US?

The only thing that might get actually compare is military spending per capita. And that's, coincidentally, one of the only things China does right.

Man, the conservatives are really scared of OWS. It seems like this week they've really realized that they're losing control of the message. I actually heard some Rush Limbaugh wannabe using the Daily Show to criticize the movement yesterday. When they resort to the Daily Show, you know they're really reaching.

Ed Finnerty: He should stop commenting on politics and get back to making more episodes of Rescue Me.

Er...?

A Dark Evil Omen: The only thing that might get actually compare

FTFM. Don't know where that "get" came from...

moralpanic: Ed Finnerty: He should stop commenting on politics and get back to making more episodes of Rescue Me.

Er...?

He's joking. Everyone knows it's Dennis Hopper in Rescue Me.

Your post is just a RED herring!

Dennis Miller? Really? Who even? Really? What a looser. I don't even.

I dunno, a lot of people use The Daily Show as their primary news source.
