From Dennis Miller Live ... back in the 1990's because he doesn't feel this way today

[LiberalPersuasion]

1. The times are a changing...

Yeah, this is back when Miller had a soul and a career.

[20score]

2. Yes, this was before he lost his mind, conscience and soul.

Now he is just as, or more disgusting than the people he used to berate.

3. Dennis Miller.........the 911 republican

All these scared pussies that turned right-wing republican because they thought we were all gonna get killed by terrorists. Oh Dennis, I hardly knew ye.

[LuckyLib]

4. Miller could really nail it. We lost someone who could sarcastically articulate the

absurdity of so much. Now he's the one who's absurd.

5. For every Miller we lose, there's a Maher, Stewart and Colbert to keep the flame

6. Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, so I was never too impressed with Miller.

He always seemed like a talentless passive aggressive hack, honestly watching his show in the 90s was excruciating for someone with actual college education... he used to go for the "obscure reference" approach to show how cosmopolite and refined he was. Problem is that most of the times the equivalences or references were completely wrong or off the mark given the context he was trying to use them under. I assume that was not a big deal because most American audiences don't have that much sophistication in terms of world history for example.

He simply changed the angle after 911 when he saw that FOX's audiences were bigger and the paychecks were easier due to the lower hanging fruits.

Anyone who can do such a 180 degree turn never had any integrity to begin with. If anything, it was easier to see his asshole stripes.

9. another way to put it...

You don't have to reference the mongol invasions of Japan... to tell a fart joke

[AlbertCat]

11. when he saw that FOX's audiences were bigger and the paychecks were easier

Bingo!

He's one of those "smart asses" that give intellectuals a bad name.

Who cares what he said or says?

7. This jack ass is so NOT funny!

I just can't see how this turd can be considered "funny" in any sane sense.

And his baboon audience laughs at these statements by this hypocritical ass hole. How sad. Yeah...let's just laugh at the homeless and unfortunate. How low we have sunk.

8. So that's what he looked like with a soul. I almost didn't recognize him.

10. One of the writers for "Dennis Miller Live" was on

TheYoungTurks discussing how Dennis Miller used to be a Moderate. He also has an intersting on Arianna Huffington: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2w_iJ9nkIw
