Here's a big surprise: the ONLY transcript not up for the Donahue show is the one where Dennis Miller cleaned his clock.

It is hard to be objective when you're up to your ass in Clinton-speak.
To: Howlin
Gee, what a surprise.
To: presidio9
BTW I heard he got in quite a few good shots on Donahue. Anyone know where I can find a transcript of that?

Idiots like this just make me, and thousands of others, like Dennis Miller all the more. If the Left hates him, he has to be a good guy.
To: cyncooper
So long as church-state integrationist John Ashcroft is the attorney general, a purge of the potty-mouthed Miller is never a distant possibility. I guess this guy missed Donahue; Miller LIKES Ashcroft, thinks he is doing the best anybody could do in the situation, thinks Aschroft got a raw deal during his confirmation hearings, and also believes Aschroft showed a lot of class when he didn't challenge the Widder Callahan.

I have received several e-mails about Dennis Miller spewing hatred on The Tonight Show a few days ago. From what Im told, he expressed great contempt for the French and total disdain for the well-being of innocents in Iraq. I believe the letters because I have seen him express similar Jurassic views on other programs. Translation: I don't know what I'm talking about here, but that's never stopped me before, and it won't stop me now.
To: TradicalRC
I've been looking for the transcipt; it seems to be the ONLY one that hasn't been transcribed and put up on the page.
Suffice it to say, he pulverized Donahue, mocked him to his face, and generally made him look like a total fool.
I tell you why Miller is like this: he grew up, made some money, and has CHILDREN.

Here's a big surprise: the ONLY transcript not up for the Donahue show is the one where Dennis Miller cleaned his clock.That is interesting. When Donahue was fired effective immediately, MSNBC reran that particular show either that very night or the next night. I had not seen the first airing but did see most of the second showing, and I knew Donahue had already been fired when I watched it.
They must have received a huge response to show it again on the heels of the dismissal. It seems at first blush to be surprising that it wouldn't therefore be on their website, but on further reflection the website isn't the ratings problem! LOL

Historian Paul Johnson on the French, writing in the current Forbes Magazine:
"We have been reminded that France is not to be trusted at any time, on any issue. The British have learned this over 1,000 years of acrimonious history, but it still comes as a shock to see how badly the French can behave, with their unique mixture of shortsighted selfishness, long-term irresponsibility, impudent humbug and sheer malice. Americans are still finding out--the hard way--that loyalty, gratitude, comradeship and respect for treaty obligations are qualities never exhibited by French governments. All they recognize are interests, real or imaginary. French support always has to be bought. What the Americans and British now have to decide is whether formal alliances that include France as a major partner are worth anything at all, or if they are an actual encumbrance in times of danger."

What an empty statement. If wanting to free an oppressed people from a tyrant is disdainful, then call me disdainful. In any fight for freedom, innocent people will die. It's just a cold, hard fact of life. Of course I don't believe for a second this jerk is really concerned about Iraqi civillians.

Gee, Barry. Sounding a bit bitter, there, fella.

Yes, indeed. Carville is much nastier, but I've never heard his diatribes denoted "hate speech" by the hate-hating lefties.

Crimmins is possessed of the kind of mind which sends assassins to Mexico City to have Trotsky killed. Not only is dissent from his worldview not tolerable, but it requires in response the obliteration of the offending 'dissident.' Crimmins and temporal power are to be kept far apart, in the name of safety.

I'm trying to think of what this guy considers "spewing hatred". Evidently Miller's mocking of the liberal position is enough to do the trick in Barry's world.
I have seen Miller praise Ashcroft. These fools deserve every word of mockery they get when they start to hurl their baseless charges like John Aschcroft is an enemy of the Constitution and George Bush is akin to Hitler. What buffoons.
And still harping on the 2000 election. It kind of gives one a warm glow to know these types are still beside themselves over a good and decent man rightfully being declared the winner--over and above board DESPITE the attempt of algore to do what they accuse GWB of doing.

It was Ted Nugent who said, "If I am taking flack, I am over the target."

Thank you Mr. Crimmins. I will be sure now to catch everything Miller does and says. If he has you PO'd, he must be on the right track.
