Dennis Miller for VP in '04!

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 02:12

Pres Bush should try to recruit Miller for VP as he's much funnier than Cheney. He was on Donahue and he even made that bearable.

Miller: "I hate our enemies, I think I'm the last one."

Got any Dennis Miller quotes?

Drake Tungsten · February 13, 2003, 02:18

An old sig...

"When some jackass finally yanks our chain long enough and we drop two hundred tons of explosives on him, the wussier countries of the world like to accuse us of being cowboys. Okay, Senor Speedo, you win. That's right. We're Gary goddamn Cooper, and you know what? Saddle up and get in the posse or shut the **** up. All right?" - Dennis Miller

Bush/Miller in 2004!

Oerdin · February 13, 2003, 02:24

That just became my new sig. The old one about Ming's New Year's bash was getting kind of old where as this one is timeless stuff.

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 02:33

Drake!

Oerdin, there's a thread of Shi's in the Poly forum worth checking out. I put in my 2 pesos worth...

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 02:54

"A recent study showed that you're much more likely to get shot by a fat cop if you run"

"Economists predict that this year's federal surplus will be $120 billion dollars less than predicted. The missing $120 billion was reportedly last seen on a date with congressman Gary Condit."

He used to be pretty good, but he's become a crank.

Ming · February 13, 2003, 02:58

He still is funny (watched the replay tonight)... He's just gotten more conservative

But he trashed Bush big time... and it was REALLY funny.

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:02

Che's post translated from leftyspeak...

'He used to be liberal, but he's become a conservative.'

chequita guevara · February 13, 2003, 03:06

so!

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:06

Ming, I see you deleted Shi's thread in the Apolyton forum before the admins could see yet another complaint about your moderating. Fast work guy.

Ming · February 13, 2003, 03:08

Gee... another off topic complaint in a thread by Lancer... what a surprise.

And Che... NP. A fact of getting older for most people

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:08

Che, the tounge looks kinda red, ok, now turn your head and cough.

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:12

Ming, the thread you deleted in the Apolyton forum was Shi's, not mine. I wonder why it says "Moderated by DanQ" there, if he doesn't even get a chance to see the stuff?

Ming · February 13, 2003, 03:14

If you have a complaint Lancer... take it up with management. I'm sure they will take you as serious as I do. Now stop your whining. It's off topic.

chequita guevara · February 13, 2003, 03:15

You want some crackers with your whine, Lancer?

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:16

Yes it is.

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:24

"If some unemploted punk in New Jersey, can get a cassette to make love to Elle McPherson for $19.95, this virtual reality stuff is going to make crack look like Sanka."

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:29

"Washington DC is to lying what Wisconson is to cheese."

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 03:47

Che, here's one your politics will permit you to like...

"The radical right is so xenophobic that they're blaming global warming on the aids quilt."

Drake Tungsten · February 13, 2003, 05:55

che should like this one as well...

"Now, whatever America as a whole might think, I am not afraid to come out and say it: I love the rich. I'm glad they have more money than I do. In most, instances, I believe they earned it. ... Listen. No one should feel guilty about wanting more money. If you don't like it, well, sorry, comrade. Because complaining about this country's obsession with getting rich is like stepping onto a baseball diamond and *****ing that nobody's playin' soccer. Trying to get rich is our national pastime. So pick up a bat, baby, and start swingin'. Because let's face it, folks, in this country we are all sailboats, and the money is wind, and with enough of it, well, you can just about get blown anywhere."

I have to paraphrase him:

OBL lost the support of the French and Bill Clinton when he condemned wine and adultery.

Isn't it curious how liberals defend Kim Jung Il and Saddam by expressing concern over Bush's stability?

Sava · February 13, 2003, 08:34

Just another celebrity who thinks he knows what's right for America. Apparantly he thinks its okay for religion and government to walk hand in hand.

no thanks

If I had to choose a comedian to run for political office, number one, I'd choose a funny one. Number two, I'd choose Bill Maher. Somebody who has a thought in his head and isn't friends with Dan Fouts.

I love these stupid generalizations that come from left field.

I don't pay any attention to celeb viewpoints, but Sava, COME ON - like you would hesitate to quote a celebrity whose views supported your side!

Dennis used to be a lot more liberal. He has definitely drifted to the right over the past several years.

Me too. But I do like the funny ones.

Drake Tungsten · February 13, 2003, 11:33

I've found that comedians tend to be the most honest and insightful commentators on modern events. Comedians like Dennis Miller, Bill Maher and Chris Rock get more respect from me than all the "serious" commentators (aka spinmeisters) out there...

Who?

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 14:14

Medium build, black hair, cool looking. Goes from serious as a heart attack to cracking himself and others up in a split second. You can almost see his sense of humor kick in. In his serious mode he is what I imagine Isaiah might look like. Looked right through Donahue, pinned that worm to the wall on his BS and just plain shut him up on a couple of his self involved tirades as well.

A damn good VP because he would have plenty of time to joke around, while occasionally cutting through leftyspeak with laser sharp wit.

Lancer · February 13, 2003, 14:31

On Clinton/Monica:

"All I ask is that he does his job, doesn't rip me off or stare too long at my wife, that's it ok. I think if the next president is to learn anything from this whole episode, it's that he should be totally forthcoming with whatever dark secret he harbors, thereby completely defanging the rabid pack of partisan watchdogs nipping at his heels. You know, at this point, I really believe that our entire nation actually would diefy the first president who steps up to a podium, looks dead into the camera and says, "Folks, she blew me. As a matter of fact, she's blowin' me right now. But enough about me, lets talk about cutting yo...uh...eh...uh...your taxes."
Of course, that's just an opinion, I could be wrong."

FrustratedPoet · February 13, 2003, 14:31

He's cool, which is as good a qualification for being VP as any I guess.
