Stumbled across an amusing quote:
"Blacks obtained the right to vote waaaaay back when? Nineteen sixty-five. That's right folks, a mere thirty years ago we were South Africa without the diamond mines."

Guess who said this?






























Dennis Miller, The Rants (1996)

2. He's just an opportunist.
He'll be either a liberal or a conservative, depending on which side pays more.

3. That was back before he transformed into a schill.
Once he realized he was losing the young crowd, he bought in and became the right winger's "smart" comic. It happened right after 9/11, with his HBO show "The Raw Feed". I recorded it eagerly, since I was a huge Miller fan up to that point. Calling it a letdown isn't even correct. It was like a punch in the gut.
