1. You really mean he still has a show?
He surely has to be running it on his own money. Another pathetic loser.

2. Can the paid audience organize a labor union?
They could negotiate health care with enhanced mental health benefits.

Necessity is the mother ...

3. They'll run with it...............
much longer than they should. It is, after all, a Conservative schmooze-fest. Now if it were a LIBERAL schmooze-fest, it would be gone already. They'll have to give it more time to build an audience, would be my guess as to what the execs will say. Miller couldn't build an audience out of this crap in a thousand years. He was done before he started, but they'll go with it much longer than they need to. He's a conservative, you just DON'T silence conservatives. You just don't.

4. They got rid of the chimp, I noticed.
Yes...they now have a sycomphantic audience to laugh and laugh at Dennis' "humor". I watched it last night...out of sheer boredom. They had this ultra right winger named Star Parker who was nothing more than some damn cheerleader for Bush (and who was making some idiotic...and I mean truly idiotic point...about how the government should not get involved in trying to clean up the environment. Apparently, according to her, private industry should be left alone to do this. Yeah, right. That will happen. And I'm Matt Damon.)

Same old shit. Just a slightly different format.

Terry

5. I couldn't believe her moronity
Ed Begley was making the point that * has let industry write pollution standards and our air and water are getting filthier and filthier under *. She said "So what? We'll buy water". When Begley asked if poor people can afford to buy bottled water she said of course they would buy it if they were so concerned about it (OWTTE).

She's some black wing-nut who blames welfare for all the ills of the black community.

Here's Amazon's blurb about her book:

America has two economic systems: capitalism for the rich and socialism for the poor. This double-minded approach seems to keep the poor enslaved to poverty while the rich get richer. Let’s face it, despite its $400 billion price tag, welfare isn’t working.


The solution, asserts Star Parker, is a faith-based, not state-sponsored, plan. In Uncle Sam’s Plantation, she offers five simple yet profound steps that will allow the nation’s poor to go from entitlement and slavery to empowerment and freedom. Parker shares her own amazing journey up from the lower rungs of the economic system and addresses the importance of extending the free market system to this neglected group of people. Emphasizing personal initiative, faith, and responsibility, she walks readers toward releasing the hold poverty has over their lives.
