More unbelieveable press conduct
I was flipping through the channels and found Dennis Miller's show. I decided to watch just to see what was up. First was Rep. Ford and that was no big deal. But then came a Newsweek photographer. As pictures were put up on the screen Dennis said vile stuff about Kerry, Dean, Edwards, and Clark. It was simply amazing. We heard about Kerry being given electo shock therapy to smile, Clark threatening to kill puppies, and while a transvestite who supported Dean was pictured we heard how people who know how to flip flop support Dean. Remember the guest was a Newsweek photographer who said nothing about these things.

2. I can't believe how many repeated "15 minutes of fame"
Edited on Mon Feb-09-04 12:45 AM by eileen_d
Miller is getting. Luckily this segment of 15 minutes won't last long; I hear that show is completely lame.

The only thing of worth Dennis Miller has done in the 21st century is "Joe Dirt."

3. I can't wait to see his ratings
It's gonna be special. If Chris Mathews show is one of the lowest ranked, Miller should be dismal.

BTW, did you know Nachman died? Cancer.

5. Yeah I had heard
I had no idea he was sick. I had assumed it was a heart attack before I read the cause. Sad thing.

4. Kudos to you
for being able to watch Dennis Miller. He's such a sellout that I can't even bring myself to watch him on his new show. He used to be really funny. Now he's bought and paid for.

7. He's the reason I don't watch Jay Leno anymore
I got so tired of seeing that sycopant appear every 2 or 3 weeks sucking up to GDub and his war efforts. He doesn't even do so much as to talk about, say, anything else. When Miller goes on the Tonight Show, you know what's coming and after a while I just had enough of it.

6. Miller's new show is about as lame as you can get.
On his first outing he had Arnold on as guest. Arnold was several times funnier than Miller, and made a lot more sense. The Austrian wonder even seemed a little embarrassed by some of Miller's comments.

The show is just not funny, not topical and not worth watching. Of the two main characters on the set, the chimp is the more interesting.

BuhBye, Dennis!

8. for what it is worth - I was commuting home today and heard
Laura Ingram - just trashing Dennis and his show. On and on about how unfunny, and awkward the whole thing was. When those sympathetic to you... think you s*ck... things are really bad.

14. Always expect the worst from the same media that brought you "WMDs"
"Saddam was behind 9-11" and "America's New War"....
