Five minutes into the first show, Dennis Miller declares...

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

..."I'm voting for Bush." This came only moments thoroughly serviving Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who told him "You're the reason I got elected! All of your hard work! Going up and down the state saying Arnold is great! That is what did it!"

:puke: :nuke: :puke:

[tinrobot]

1. I didn't watch...

...and I don't plan to ever watch his show.

[KissMyAsscroft]

2. Man, that liberal media is out of control!

:eyes:

[PDittie]

3. Why are you even watching?

I mean, seriously...

Is it less effort to watch Dennis Miller than it is to stick one's fingers down one's throat?

Are you masochistic?

Change the channel before your eyes erupt in flames and boil out a molten mess running down your face, for Jeebus'sake...

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

8. I just had to see if he'd sell his whole soul, or maybe half

...but he went for the whole enchilada. He's gonna wake up tomorrow morning and find a $20 bill on the nightstand...

:toast:

[devinsgram]

60. Totall agree, I wouldn't give him the time of day.

[Ilsa]

4. I listened until

that crap about "9/11 changed me". Miller is afraid of his shadow, and is willing to condemn anyone who isn't going overseas to blow up "foreigners".

His first guest is Ah-nold. That alone is reason not to watch.

[frank frankly]

5. satire=reality

remember that looking glass we went through...me neither.

:shrug:

:puke:

[Eric J in MN]

6. Is Dennis Miller the first talk-show host to ever declare whom he plans to

Is Dennis Miller the first talk-show host to ever declare whom he plans to vote for in so many words?

[goddess40]

32. the show is just a campaign tool for the right

It will be gone if it isn't effective or right after the election.

[calimary]

54. Well, it's appropriate. Dennis Miller is a tool, himself.

I have much more vital and important things to do at that time. Like pluck my eyebrows and watch our hamster.

[Bandit]

61. He billed himself and his show as Non-Partisan

First five minutes he says he is a partisan. Go Figure. Republicans just can't help lying.

[camero]

7. Dennis couldn't even survive

a battle of wits on Monday Night Football. And now he's choosing our government?

[JohnOneillsMemory]

9. My laundromat has a 'Terminator 2' pinball machine. I play just to hear

the sound effects include my freak of a governor mixed in with the bleeps and burps saying "nice shot!" and "game ovuh!"

When I really need to get a visceral confirmation of how small in spirit these neocon lackeys are.

A quarter's worth of investment never gave me so much therapy before this.

[Chomskyite]

10. If he takes calls . . .

. . . let's blitz his ass.

[Bozvotros]

11. Sounds like a hummer....

"Going up and down the state saying Arnold is great! That is what did it!"

Going up and down? I wonder if he said it with his mouth full?

[bahrbearian]

23. Roflmao

[jenk]

12. I completely forgot he had a show, much less it premiered tonight

[General Discontent]

13. So far all utter horseshit......

Paraphrasing:


Miller: Was liberal, now liberal to think as conservatively as possible.
//Verbatim schtick that I've seen on 3 different programs now. He couldn't even write a brand new lead for his show. Idiot.

Miller: Bush, gooder. He saves us from terror!

Arnie: People want a leader that doesn't flaunt their intellect with fancy words, and NUMBERS(LOL! facts...hmmmm).

Miller: Deficits, bad!

Arnie: Deficits, Bahd! Inherited deficits, Bahd!
//Hmmm, I recall Bush inheriting a surplus and now we have projected 474 BILLION dollar debt. Funny no mention so far......


Folks, this crap so far, even for regurgitated Republican crap, is as dry as week-old toast. I get a feeling that Miller realizes this as well. He looks and sounds TIRED! If you despise Miller, as many do, you don't have to worry, his show won't be around for very long. I predict this after watching for 14 minutes. Kind of like, "you don't have to eat a whole egg to know it's rotten." I will probably tune in occasionally just to watch him suffer with that "employee at the Scotch Tape store waiting for the mall to close down" look on his face that he has now. Good riddance Miller....


DWolfman

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

15. The sound of one hand clapping...

I haven't been sitting in front of the TV for the entire first half hour so I don't know if this is filmed before a live audience or not, but during his "news" segment (read: Dem bashing), you could hear between one and three people weakly chuckling when you heard anything at all (other than a high, lonesome wind and the tumbleweeds rollin' across the barren highway).

And you're right, DWolfman...this boy looks really, really tired. Almost sick.

Note to Dennis: Enjoy your Neilsens, cha-cha.

[Valjean]

26. Ahhnoalds Daucter

Aaahm suur dat Aaahnoold hos der daucter dat doazent spreken faaahnzy wads luk, "stahmuch, tebeu, feama, blaad". Hea fianz et refreshang fouw a provejonal ta yuz der language af der peapal.

[GCP]

55. But, but, isn't the Gropinator trying to bring down CA's deficit?

Cutting back on social programs right left and center? How come he's yucking it up over people worrying about the federal deficit?
The sheer mind-numbing hypocrisy of the right never fails to astound me.

[mike1963]

14. Call me crazy but I'm forcing myself to watch it. A masochistic moment,

as it were, I guess...but he is going over like a turd in the punch bowl with whatever audience is there. About 3 people laugh at his idiotic pseudo-intellectual one-liners.

I give him 3 weeks, max.
:eyes:

[MacCovern]

16. What's with Dennis and the Chimp?

No, not that chimp.

Dennis has a real live chimp as his sidekick on the show.
WTF is that all about? In one way a chimp would be the
ultimate "yes" man, well, make that primate.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

19. It's a stolen gimmick..

...based on J Fred Muggs, a chimp that Dave Garroway had on the original "Today Show."

[Eric J in MN]

39. Thanks. I didn't know he took that from The Today Show (nt)

nt

[Stupdworld]

37. bush is on the miller show?

/obvious

[Supply Side Jesus]

17. who's carrying it??

I haven't heard of this at all. Not that I plan to watch it at all.

[MacCovern]

18. CNBC

CNBC

[thebigidea]

20. how can you not luuuuv a panel with David Frum and David Horowitz?

AHGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGgggggggggggggggggggggggggjyhjrhjrjjtjeyrjyetjyjhue64jujury...

[buycitgo]

33. you forgot naomi wolf

wonder how fast it'll take for her to get into the nearest shower?

btw, where's my Perle/sphincter/socket pic?

still waiting

you'd hardly have to do anything with this

[buycitgo]

21. OMFG!!! a "Panel"!!!

in front of the cheesiest backrop I've ever seen

Naomi Wolf, sandwiched between Miller, David Horowitz, and David Frum

I turned up the sound long enough to hear Miller say something about conserves probly being embarrassed by David Kay's report.

After Horowitz started to demur, I turned sound off

at least there's ONE sane person on the show

beside the CHIMPANZEE he had on at the very beginning

GWBush?

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

29. Miller is challenged by the one female member of the panel...

...on David Kay's statements, saying that we had no WMD and over 500 American soldiers were killed, and Miller said (I am NOT making this up):

"And do you think that George Bush, as a human being, isn't torn up over this?"

She's worth waytching...as Miller and his male whore friends are spinning this into "Bush did the right thing," she YELLED "Did you read the PAPER today???"

:-)

[Eric J in MN]

40. That's horrible. Dennis Miller is implying that we should care more

That's horrible. Dennis Miller is implying that we should care more about how Bush might feel than about soldiers' lives.

[oasis]

31. Naomi Wolf is pinning their ears back, said Bush dishonesty caused 500

Americans to needlessly die.

Miller tried to change subject because she was kicking ass. Horowitz now is questioning Clark's judgement in criticizing Bush's Iraq policy while our soldiers are in the field.

[9119495]

22. Wow! you lasted five minutes? I only made it 3!

What a hack. Did he really think that intro would impress anyone? Gaining in the ratings will be a sisyfusian achievement not yet equaled by the third guy to read Nietzsche's love memoirs on some ill-fated voyage through Charo's hair on some cruise through the eighth circle of hell...(followed by cackle, hair flip, and one more such up to Arnie). What a phucker.

[mike1963]

28. Your little rant sounds exactly like something Dennis would say!

:evilgrin:
:D

[GCP]

56. ROTFLMAO

You nailed it. I love the hair flip bit :7

[tishaLA]

24. I turned it on and the PAIN the PAIN

Naomi Wolf, god bless her, and THREE conservatives, including Horowitz and David Frum? And Miller with his smarminess....

Good to see Horowitz got his talking points abou tthe problem being with the CIA and not chimpy. Wait til that comes back to bite him in the ass.

What a pathetic piece of shit this show is. Production values like it's shot in a parking garage.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

34. Horowitz: "Criticizing Bush at this time...

...is giving aid and comfort to the enemy."

Frum: "It is both reprehensible AND stupid."

Naomi Wolf needs her own show. She's reason enough to watch this trainwreck.

[tishaLA]

25. dupe.

dupe sorry

[kskiska]

27. The Freeps agree with you all

At the beginning of their live thread they were thrilled to death. They ended up being bored to death.

[truebrit71]

30. "Whore, thy name is Dennis"...

I can accept that opinions and points of view can change, but to go from one extreme to the other is something else entirely...His liberal schtick wasn't paying the bills so he became a schill for the right-wing...What a pathetic, sorry excuse for a human being...

[AG78]

35. I love this show

I do. I hope Horowitz and Frum are on every night. Maybe my head will explode, and I won't have to listen to these people cover up the lie with more lies.

I don't know what it was about this show, but it just made me feel relieved. I can't explain it. Not relieved, but just something. Not hatred. Not anger. But something.

You watch this stuff, and you just see how everything is out of everyone's control.

Horowitz blames the "liberals in the universities" for the fact that the US ARMY doesn't have anyone that can speak Arabic. Maybe I'm stupid, but does that make sense?

Where's Arnold borrowing all this money from? Miller asks doesn't anyone in Sacramento know that they were spending all this money, and that it would lead to massive debt. But he says nothing of his new buddy in Washington, and that's a debt on a global scale.

I hope I can watch this show everynight. I hope it drives me crazy. At least then, maybe I wouldn't know they were lying.

[Nay]

36. What a craven turncoat. I will never watch him again in anything.

[Hippo_Tron]

38. I don't mean to go on a rant here...

But America's foreign policy makes about as much sense as Beowulf having sex with Robert Fulton at the first battle of Antietem. I mean, when a neoconservative definistrates, it's like Rascalnakov fillibuster deoxymonhydroxinate.

Sorry, I just had to.
:evilgrin:

[buycitgo]

41. know what's funny?

not miller, I know

but I'll bet there are more people reading/posting about his stupid, lame, cheapass show, than WATCHED it!

what does CNBC get....less than a hundred K viewers in that time slot, I'll bet anything

between here and freekpuglik, I bet there's close to that

any guesses

and did you see the morford column?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=1058378

[buycitgo]

42. now, THIS is funny!

de Plame, bawth, de Plame!!



best, most 'economical' satire on the web

http://home.comcast.net/~wizardofwhimsy/

[Hippo_Tron]

43. For the record, do you watch family guy? n/t

[buycitgo]

51. for the record....no

is it still on?

I keep hearing how funny it is

favorite cartoon show is still Dr. Katz

wish they'd bring that back

[SeveneightyWhoa]

44. What a dreadful show.

I don't even see why Bush-loving rightwingers would watch this show. From the five or so minutes I saw, it was pretty weak. Maybe it'll "improve", but it doesn't matter.

Miller is a whore extraordinaire.

[Dr Fate]

45. Why didnt the "Liberal Media" give Al Franken a show?

He has much more experience- several political books & TV appearances...

Why not have 2 comedians- Dennis & Al Franken, or some other outspoken Liberal comedian?

Oh well, that's the Liberal Media for you...

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

47. I believe Franken has a radio show coming soon.

[Dr Fate]

48. He does, but why no Liberal political comedians on NBC?

There are plenty of popular Liberal funny-men that they could have balanced the show with...

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

46. What's sickening is..

...all the money being spent to advertise this piece of shit show on a rather underwatched network.

[Lone_Wolf]

59. It doesn't matter to CNBC/GE

They'll keep this show on the air, even if it costs them money. GE will simply subsidize it. This show is nothing more than a slick infomercial that is meant to spew pro-corporate/neocon propaganda. This is one of the hidden ways corporations get around Federal election finance laws and spend unlimited amounts of money to promote the candidate or policies of their choice. That is the true value of it to GE.

They don't plan to make money from advertising revenues on this show.

[WhoCountsTheVotes]

49. What's that Dennis? I can't understand you?

Try taking the GOP cock out of your mouth before you speak.

[bleedingheart]

50. LOL

[leesa]

52. Well, at least he wears his ignorance on his sleeve

Does this guy always back the loser?

[Ilsa]

53. It'll never last.

He uses words that are too big and unusual for most Rethugs. And seeing as many of Bush's supporters don't seem to care much for intellectual pursuits, they won't care of his smugness either.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

57. did NOT watch! will NEVER watch! and have MSNBC blocked because of

hiring Miller!

[SideshowScott]

58. Well Dennis got what he wanted....Hope he enjoys it while it lasts

By acting like another GOP flunkie, talentless hack Miller got his show..Now hes nothing more than just another whore..sad really..I wonder if his show is just gonna be nothing more than a right wing love fest or will he get some real dems and lib on..Id like to see Will Pitt or Symbolman on his show..But like O'Reilly his act is just another pussy bully..Ya know anyone with book smarts can do his act..
