OMG-Is anyone else watching Dennis Miller tonight
He has Representative Rengal on (great guy) discussing the Iraq war. When Rengel brings up how wrong this war is etc..., Dennis says, don't you think there are some soldiers over there who have a "higher calling"!!, and dying was their calling!!!!???!!! What in the world, is Miller this bad all the time??? This is the first time I have watched.

By the way, Rengal ripped him on such a stupid question. Said, sure it's easy for us to say they have a higher calling when it is not you over there or your kids over there fighting....Went on with more.

1. I think it's a rerun
and that "higher calling" crap, I don't think even he believes it. Miller isn't that far right.

5. He's that far right now...since it became profitable to be right winged
I've watched his show a few times....He's pathetic...sitting on the edge of his desk, trying to look like an intellectual....Everything he says is so inane, it's embarrassing!

2. Wow. Believe it or not, now I have more sympathy for Miller.
I asked to think he was just an evil, opportunistic prick, but now I think he may be certifiably insane.

8. Agreed, Al Franken said that Dennis Miller was always like this but
now it is out in the open.

WTF, the guy was always a wingnut. He held it in pretty good. Now, though, he's showing what a sick fu*k he really is. I hope he marries Ann Coulter and discovers that he is a homosexual who loves a tranvestite. Then again why would I saddle the homosexual and transvestite community with his crazy ass.

6. He's gone mental
Sold out at the Drive Thru Republican Pawn Shop for Souls. Probably jumped on that "free dashboard Jesus" deal.

4. And of course the answer is...
..no one is watching Dennis Miller. Except maybe his mother, if she is still alive.

9. I think he does us all a favor with that show
I've only seen a few clips, but he behaves like an arrogant prick and he's totally unqualified to talk about politics, so he loses every single argument and the guests are getting their say on air - reaching some people who would not otherwise be reachable.

He gets up on his high-horse many times only to fall on his face when the guest points out that he's not listening to them and therefore completely misunderstood the point they were making. I think that's due to his having his little "bon mots" written way in advance, and when they don't fit or refer to something that's been completely debunked, he kicks his own ass instead.

I say we should try to keep his show on the air. It's like a reality show where we get to watch a cheap whore earn his paycheck by debasing himself and his supporters to the point of painful and abject mortification and fall flat on his face, only to ignore that fact, get up and whore some more - gotta keep those GOP bucks coming in, you know...

I like it.

10. You just described the Bush administration
Except that it's our money they are burning through, and people are actually dying -- not just metaphorically 'dying' on stage..

12. I SAW THIS FRI NIGHT AND WAS HORRIFIED AT THAT COMMENT!
What an ASSCLOWN MILLER IS!

Yeah he's all like, why should we get in the way of their higher calling? Rangel points out, that no Senator & Congressmen's sons seem to have that calling, very few rich people's kids have it....

God Miller out-smirks SMIRK!
