Ranting for W.
Say it ain't so, Dennis. Miller Emerges as New Voice for Bush Re-Election.
Dennis Miller -- who made the rant an institution on HBO -- doing personal stand-up routines at fundraisers for President Bush? Jean-Paul Sartre once quipped that we all get more conservative as we get older, but this is way over the top. Reuters reports that Miller is "gaining a reputation as a conservative comic by attacking Democrats with biting humor." I loved Miller for his hawkish views on terrorism and the Iraq War, which mirror my own, but the depth of this guy's compassion is measured in millimeters. It's hardly a badge of honor to be an emerging hero to the conservative movement, extolled by the National Review. Of course, that's just his opinion, and he could be wrong!!!
