Dennis Miller's violent fantasies |
|
The poor dear... Dennis Miller visited the O’Reilly Factor Wednesday night (11/16/11) for another dose of his mean-spirited, aging-hipster prattle that passes for humor on Fox News. Wednesday night’s “joke?” Miller quipped, “I just flew five hours from L.A. to New York next to an Islamic kid who was in his 30’s. I couldn’t even watch the movie. I just fantasized about hitting him an elbow if he went up to take a whizz.” I’m not sure which was worse: the joke or the fact that host Bill O’Reilly obviously didn’t mind a bit. http://www.newshounds.us/2011/11/19/dennis_miller_i_spent_five_hours_fantasizing_about_hitting_the_muslim_kid_next_to_me_on_a_plane.php

3. That's supposed to be funny? Only if you think racism and fascism is funny. |

I'm sorry I ever watched Miller on SNL at this point. He and Victoria Jackson should have been drowned at birth. Were they ever funny? How does Miller still have a career?
This is off-topic, but it reminded me I was reading about Andy Warhol's Factory and his filmmaking partner/director Paul Morrissey, was described as a "reactionary conservative" who never liked drugs or any of the stuff portrayed in his films -- as was Warhol. A Catholic preppie, US Army vet, who despite having no career to speak of after Warhol somehow remains a well-heeled member of the demimonde. It made me wonder what was actually going on in those times.

5. I admit, gigs on o'really aren't much of a career....however, someone's still paying him. |

Edited on Sat Nov-19-11 03:23 AM by WildNovember
He is a regular political commentator on Fox News Channel's The O'Reilly Factor in a segment called "Miller Time", and previously appeared on the network's Hannity & Colmes in a segment called "Real Free Speech".
and you know a while back he had a show & was a sports commentator. so he's still in the game.

9. Why are conservatives so mean and hateful? |
|
i blame a huge portion of it on the very BULLSHIT he was on - the o'reilly factor and foxnews - all their fear and hate, mock and ridicule 24/7 has a real effect on people's mental health - and it's not pretty. miller and o'reilly should be ashamed of themselves - fear and hate pushers.

10. Because they're afraid of everything. |
|
If someone or something does not fit into their simple mindsets, they will belittle it to try to control the situation, and by extension, protect themselves from the unknown.

Both bat-shit crazy, neither one of them funny--just nasty, racist, bigoted assholes.

16. miller's career is SO over and has been for years. |
|
now he is just sad and pathetic. I don't know what made he jump the tracks all those years ago, but he jumped and NEVER looked back. He can't hold a gig of any kind. He's been canceled from everything.....O'Rielly is one of his last outlets.
Victoria Jackson is and always has been a talentless bubble-headed-bleached-blond-bimbo.

18. Conservative humor is revealing their execrable fantasies, and call it a joke. |

27. Dennis Miller's biggest fan is Dennis Miller |
|
I watched SNL back in the days Dennis Miller was on there. He really wasn't all that funny. Seems he was always laughing, I guess at himself, thinking "how clever am I?" Islamic kid in his 30s? Someone in his 30s is a kid? And there is nothing funny to me about someone fantasizing about injuring someone else because of his or her (no doubt a guess on Miller's part) religion. Sounds like Dennis Miller needs to get some anger management counseling.

Was selling your soul on the cheap worth it?
Was selling out your values, your country, and your generation, for Rupert Murdoch's grungy dollars worth it? I doubt it every time I've heard your ugly jokes and seen your face get harder and meaner.

when the Air Marshalls dragged him off the plane when it landed & charged him with assault and whatever else they could come up with.

30. One of the deepest regrets of my life is that I once thought he was funny.. |
|
I thought he was a funny asshole, now I realize he was just an asshole.
Dennis definitely got on the wrong Karma Train Track at one point.
I'll never watch Joe Dirt again.

He obviously is very bitter at how he is a washed up has been, and his one moment of glory as a news reader on SNL is already forgotten by most people.

33. Wonder how he knew the "kid" was "Islamic" (I guess he means Muslim) ... |
|
Brown skin and a beard = "Islamic" ?? Skullcap (favored by many cultures, not just Muslims)? Turban (ditto)? "Unending Jihad" T-shirt (not so much)?
I hope the guy he elbows turns out to be a Gurkha.

He was joking about nuking Oslo, four months after another conservative murdered 77 people there. He has had 10 years to recover from his 9/11-psychosis, but he obviously hasn't.
