Shout Outs to Dennis

Dennis, The first guy that called about birdwatching tips, and said his name was Hank, I'm pretty sure that was actually Milton from Officespace. You remember what Milton did to initech dont you? Keep a fire extinguisher handy my friend. Don p.s. My neighbor 2 doors down is Dennis Miller!

Dennis, The cop who pulled over the seven-year-old driver was obviously an ageist... stopping him just because he's a kid! What a bitter reminder this is of how far we still have to go in this country when it comes to equality for ALL ages. Weigh in, Mr. President, the country awaits your sage analysis in this latest law enforcement crisis...

ruben p. wrote at 7:29 AM on Jul-30-2009:

Dennis, can you imagine president Bush in this situation. He comes out and says Mr. Gates acted stupidly and he backed Sergeant Crowley 100%, yet the facts showed it was Crowley who acted stupidly. The press would go nuts and demand President Bush resign. Dennis, keep up the good fight. My family is liberal and you can't have a civil conversation without them blaming President Bush for everything.Talk health care and you get "were are the weapons of mass distruction?". I now tell them to listen to Dennis Miller and they say "We don't have to, we know he thinks like we do. He is more liberal than we are". Unbelievable. Again, Thanks Dennis.... Ruben w.

Are you getting a butt load of e-mails from the White House? I emailed them a few times to tell them what I think of their half baked schemes, but now I am getting spammed by the President! I get at least one e-mail a week from the Spammer in Chief, and a few others from his minions. I'm going to start filtering them out as junk mail. Their lies or omissions usually start right after "Dear Friend..." I love how they complain that private insurance won't cover pre-existing conditions but fail to mention how his plan does the exact same thing - no treatment you if you are a big eater, a smoker or have passed on to the "too old" age group to justify the expense. I am PRAYING America has degraded into a bunch of whiny Europeans who need the government to cut the crusts off their PB and J sandwiches. I hope enough of the rugged individualism still survives in this great land that we will flush out the detritus that is our current congress in 2010! Love the show Dennis!

Just a few short weeks ago Obama refused to comment when Iran brutally cracked down on its protesting citizens, even when heartbreaking images of their death became a galvanizing point of protest worldwide. He stated he didn't know all the facts and yet he has no hesitation in becoming "Micromanager-in-Chief" when it involves a chance to wag his finger at white America. Next time he's doing the apology-a-thon around the world he may want to add a stop to Cambridge, MA. and actually turn that "teachable moment" around on himself.

It's pretty ironic that a man like Skip Gates is asking us all to "Move On", which is in stark contrast to his day job which involves perpetually ripping the scabs off of old racial wounds in our society that range from 45 to 300 years old while completely denying the fact that in the past 30 years a lot of new racial wounds have been opened up by the actions of certain antagonistic blacks who seem to be completely clueless about their own racism and how it has poisoned their own souls and communities. Racial "dialog" doesn't work too well when it's a tired, outdated, specious, boring, barely-relevant, monologue, and racist lecture.

Hey Mr. Miller. I am currently a 2nd year medical student and am a bit disheartened when I consider the future of medicine in the US should Pres Obama's health care initiative pass. I can't help but wonder how the Hollywood liberals would feel if he did to the entertainment industry what he hopes to do to the health care industry. I'm curious to see what Sal would think about that as well. I love your show and greatly appreciate the hard work of you and the guys. Keep it up!

Chris Galindo wrote at 12:26 PM on Jul-23-2009:

I had a most delicious thought this morning while ruminating over this health care crisis. My idea, although impractical, could get a great dialogue going and expose the hypocrisy of this situation. All Democrats, including politicians, must take a public health care plan for which they are taxed. They can also opt to sponsor the clueless, since they care so much for them. All Republicans, including politicians, can keep or enroll in a private plan. Both parties are responsible for reforming their own system, policies, etc. This would have far-reaching implications and consequences to include changes in abortion frequencies, illegal immigration, voter registration fraud (no more need for literal "Mickey Mouse" voters) and much, much, more. Everybody puts their money where their mouths are. Yes, bleeding hearts are indeed part of our current problem, but there is a Band aid or tourniquet for what ails us all!

Dennis, you played a voicemail from Kevin in Los Angeles in which he said if we had the kind of health care in the US that they have in Canada or England, Ted Kennedy wouldn't have had his brain tumor operation; he would have been told to go home, rest, and have a scotch. Was Kevin making a case FOR or AGAINST nationalized health care?

Lynn in Indiana gets it right -- Sarah Palin didn't "go along to get along." She didn't become part of the "old-boy network." She has genuine integrity and didn't "go native" in government. Liberals hate her for that, even more than for running against Democrats.

Susan A. wrote at 9:38 AM on Jul-22-2009:

My mother in law is 83 years old and worried sick about her "end of life" healthcare. She raised four children with college education, she was a stay at home mother while her husband served our country his entire life, World War II vet, Pearl Harbor Survivor and Korean war vet. They lived very, very frugally to raise their children and did not over indulge them or apologize for the lack there of. Why does she have to be sitting in her living room, after she has written another check for her quarterly tax payment, she still saves money at 83 and generates an income. Why don't we just pull back on allowing "gang members" that are rolled into our trauma centers on an hourly basis, without a dime's worth of insurance, no will and just pull the plug. I know we would be pulling the plug on shows like Crime 360, First 48, and all the various shows built around gang violence and their victims. Also for consideration, would Senator Kennedy qualify for treatment for brain cancer at 76 under the plan he is pushing. I know he has a big cash vault but without that would he get treatment. Would his weight and his alcoholism be a factor. My mother in law walks every day, has never had a drop of alcohol and has never been involved in a crime or walked away from an accident?

Larry Eubank wrote at 9:34 AM on Jul-22-2009:

Don't call Obama-care "socialized medicine." Socialists take over businesses, and nationalize them. Fascists just CONTROL businesses, micro-manage them, and milk them mercilessly. So Obama-care is fascistic medicine, not socialist. Feel better?

Great show yesterday as usual Dennis. I love when you spar with Sal, wish you did it a little more often. Not so often that it becomes this contentious Miller v. Salman ugly give and take every hour, but just a little bit more often. For instance your discussion with Sal yesterday about his obvious blind eye and free-pass for Obama's unevolved ignorant stance on gay marriage, while he skewers Cheney who is still pretty crusty on the topic, but is now clearly more evolved on the matter. It was one of the most revealing times on your show where Sal showed his unfortunate true colors of hatred for Cheney and blind punch-drunk love for Obama....though I do like Sal and find him to be a thoughtful and pretty tolerant liberal (which is a rarity). Too many liberals are so enamored by Obama, they're giving him a pass on everything, including the media, it's not good for the country....too much is going unquestioned, thogh I'm heartened by the blue dog dems and some others that are starting to see the light and voice some questions if not outright opposition and resistance.....it's really sad and I'm truly concerned. Love your show though....I listen to the podcast almost every day. Great interviews too. Ted in San Diego Independent 42 yr old businessman

I read the piece on Peggy Noonan being jealous of Sarah Palin and I was reminded of Peggy's visit on air with you before the election. She kept referring to her as Mrs. Palin and not Governor Palin and at the time I thought that was her, not so subtle, way of dissing her. I may not be the biggest fan of Sarah Palin but I am all about being fair and Peggy needs to stop talking like a slower speaking version of Lovey Howell from Gilligan's Island and not hide behind a facade of being full of Patriotic Grace. I imagine Peggy as one of those mean girls in school who just got better at putting a veil on the meanness as she got older. Ok, that was not very catty. Meow! I love your show!

Gotta hand it to you Dennis on still taking the family to the Drive-In Theater as mentioned on today's show. It is one of the things that truly says Americana to me. We go at least 4 or 5 times every summer to a theater about 45 miles away just for the family movie experience. Good for you and the Mrs. for passing that legacy on to your kids. Those memories will stay with them forever. Just sitting there in front of that massive screen either in a lawn chair, on a quilt, or in the car hearkens back to a simpler, dare I say better time.

Dennis, Mark in NH's spot-on characterization of Biden as the "dopey uncle at every wedding" that annoys all the guests, missed one critical component: He's also the uncle who gives that painfully long, alcohol-fueled toast where he confesses he wishes he could be there for the wedding night to "give the groom some pointers." It should be noted the bride is his niece.

As a 1st generation Hispanic mom living in suburban Illinois, one who was a Hillary Clinton supporter, but who emphatically got on board with McCain even more when he chose Palin, here's my theory on the venom coming from the media: JEALOUSY. It's killing women like Peggy Noonan & Marueen Dowd that Palin is smart AND beautiful, she looks FABULOUS after giving birth to 5 children, she's got a handsome husband who supports her, she can hunt, fish & cook it all up for dinner, she opted not to abort her Down Syndrome baby, she's courageous, she walks the talk, she's happy & confident with who she is, AND she is the CEO of an entire state! Oh yeah, she has a great head of hair, which the NYT cannot stomach that its really hers & not extensions.

Dennis, in your absence, I've thought a little bit about why I've missed you live as much as I do. I'm not always interested in the content as consistantly as I am on some other shows. The production values, though worthy of major national radio, are not the reason. I think it's mostly the fact that you're good company. Really smart guys who are likeable at the same time are not as easy to find on radio as one might assume. Yep, you're good enough, you're smart enough,and doggone it...I like you....and Sal, too.

Hello, Dennis. You were recently discussing Keanu Reeves, and you said that he can be a good actor when he gets the right part. I'd like to drill that down a little bit further: he is a great actor if his part requires him to portray confusion. The Matrix really solidified that for me. I think you'll find that he was great in the first one, kind of "meh" in the second one, and bad in the third. As the character's confusion goes down, so too goes his acting chops. Keep up the great show, Dennis.

I've read from many people who are wondering what is Sarah Palin's political future. To me, it's obvious that she has none. She's been hounded out of public service by a non-stop smear and legal terrorism campaign that has bankrupted and demoralized her family. Let this be a lesson to all good people who wish to serve their country in office. This country is not run by good people. And our Gordian Knot of a legal system allows for anyone who is incapable of playing dirty enough to be utterly ruined by false accusations and public ridicule by elite bullies, cowards, and paper terrorists.

I may end up agreeing with them, but my guess the reason they don't commit to the great political debate is that they would end up aping Obama's teleprompter with some psuedo-centrist, politically correct, feel good blather that hasn't a prayer of working out in the real world. Carter was the proto-Obama and it took a man like Reagan to revive the American Spirit. We invoke Reagan because he appealed to all Americans, not just certain hyphenated Americans and he elucidated sound foreign and economic policies, like capitalism and peace through strength - and it worked! Rush and VP Cheney, go on record constantly with their policy positions and so far, they make the most sense to me (witness Rush's speech in CA earlier in the year). I know where they stand on almost every issue, and while I don't always agree, they don't put their finger in the wind before they speak and they aren't trying to trick the masses with elaborate yet inept lies. Does anyone know what Colin Powell believes - on anything other than Obama? I'm ready for the debate over the soul of the Republican Party - I just wish these "progressive" Republicans would grow a pair and get in the game.

While I appreciate the irony that Nancy Pelosi thinks it's morally reprehensible to torture anything except the truth, conservatives need to stop hammering the Wicked Witch from the West. Look, she has always been the Rainman of the U. S. Congress, and now that the smoke alarm has gone off, she's banging her head against the door trying to escape. And as entertaining as this is to watch, this is a moment for long-term strategy instead of short-term lived comedy. No one is totally useless, and if you'll excuse the oxymoron, she's the perfect bad example. She COULD BE the poster child for a conservative landslide in 2010, but she has to BE AROUND for that type of tectonic political shift to take place. Someone needs to throw the crone a rope; to stand on the end of the hole and shout down, 'Nancy, drop the shovel and grab the rope' We'll pull you up!? Just make certain she's not pulled ALL the way up; keep her around; twisting in the wind. It may sound harsh, but politics has always been a blood sport to the rep from California's 8th district.

Your first guest missed the big picture: VP Chaney is the man of the hour (year); he is at the moment the most effective foil against the Obama juggernaut out there. Who else, Republican or Democrat, is man enough to command the whole of liberal medias attention at will to get out the conservative counterpoint? This is all academic anyway; there is no way Cheney is tucking tail; he had to bite his tongue for 8 years and nobody is shutting him up now.

As for President Bush "trying" ("wanting," "intending") to enforce a THEOCRACY by publicly observing the National Day of Prayer...please inform Sal that the official day was established by Harry S. Truman in 1952. And during WWII, FDR often led the country in "national prayers" in his radio addresses...most famously the D-Day "May our hearts be stout" prayer. Were they stealth radical theocrats?? I don't care about Pres. Obama's preferred method of observance, but keep in mind that he did host a Seder Passover event with Jewish leaders AT THE WHITE HOUSE just a couple weeks ago. Fine. I didn't hear anyone accuse him of trying to set up an Israelite Theocracy.

CHUCK FROM JUPITER Dennis, just signed up for the DMZ so I can time shift your show. Job gets in the way during actual broadcast time. Primo so far. Listened the last week and two great memories from college surfaced. One, my friends and I had to walk to class through an area frequented by our canine friends. We called it the DMZ for "Dog Manure Zone." Second, the "Dirty Dozen" references made me think of Donald Sutherland impersonating the general. He asked the enlisted guy where he was from (Madison City, Missouri.) DS says "Never heard of it". To this day (I'm now 53) my buddies and I use that line when we meet new people and ask them where they're from. Quite endearing and mature. Keep up the good work !

Anyway,I think you need more flesh out on the tipping debate. My brother was a waiter for a fairly nice restaurant up in Sacramento and he insisted that the rule is to only tip on food and not on beverages. The caller raised a good point however about servers having to share tips based on the total amount of the bill - can anyone out there set the record straight.

Haven't read that book, but I have read the two Churchill books and the Glory and the Dream (all highly recommended). I also liked his biography of MacArthur, which began with this description: "He was a great thundering paradox of a man, noble and ignoble, inspiring and outrageous, arrogant and shy, the best of men and the worst of men, the most protean, most ridiculous, and most sublime. No more baffling, exasperating soldier ever wore a uniform. Flamboyant, imperious, and apocalyptic, he carried the plumage of a flamingo, could not acknowledge errors, and tried to cover up his mistakes with sly, childish tricks. Yet he was also endowed with great personal charm, a will of iron, and a soaring intellect. Unquestionably he was the most gifted man-at-arms this nation has produced." more baffling, exasperating soldier ever wore the uniform.

There is no evidence that their AKs were pointed at the Captain. I think we should get the Obama administration to consider legal action against the corresponding second and third snipers. The other two pirates were perhaps ready to lay down their arms and let the US courts decide. Of course, if one sniper took out all three, we should give him a medal and then read him his Miranda rights. It's the only just thing to do. Right?

After great deliberation I have discovered one silver lining regarding the Global Warming Debacle: If, in fact, the investment in everything green for the purpose of preventing disastrous global warming; (the foundation on which our future, quasi- socialist economy is, as we speak being built), turns out, �inconveniently,� to be another of Al Gore�s little embellishments; what the heck. He won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize, and after all it�s just money. We can plant tulips around all the pretty wind mills where, hopefully, the party will permit us to eat our �cake� and catch our collective breath.

IMPEACH HIM!!!! Ah Dennis, my friend, I know you wanted to be the first to say it, but sorry to say, it was me. The words started to approach my lips when he passed the budget with some eighty-five hundred earmarks in it (when he promised on the campaign trail, NO MORE EARMARKS). Like a first, bad date, he was just telling us what we wanted to hear. The words flew out of my mouth (IMPEACH HIM) when Obama made that little speech for the benefit of Iran. I was jumping up and down with rage (ashamed to admit I was such a hot-head). I feel like we have a kindergarten teacher running the country. And I, like you, Dennis, was really sitting back, willing to give the man a chance to prove himself. So far, he looks like he is still campaigning to me. When he isn't doing that, he is paying back all the favors he got when he was running for office. To tell you the truth, I am scared. Quell my fears, please! Sue

A man called last week pointing a great hypocrisy of the Left on the issue of the use of embryos for stems cell research, by noting that under federal law it is illegal to destroy a Condor egg or even disturb its nest. Well, their hypocrisy knows no bounds on the issue of the sanctity of life. The Left will marshal every combatant possible to block even a reasonable attempt to limit late-term abortions. But when it comes to animals, the folks on the Left sing only one tune: Every beast is sacred. Every beast is great. If a beast is wasted, We�ll get quite irate. For example, have you ever heard of The C.H.I.M.P. Act of 2000. This is not a joke - I could not have made this up if I had tried. The Chimpanzee Health Improvement, Maintenance, and Protection (�CHIMP�) Act was signed by President Bill Clinton on December 20, 2000. When President Clinton signed the bill, he stated: "This Act is a valuable affirmation of the Federal Government's responsibility and moral obligation to provide an orderly system to ensure a secure retirement for surplus Federal research chimpanzees and to meet their lifetime needs for shelter and care."

However, that is the opinion of my folks who saw the show in Pittsburgh on Superbowl Sunday of all days! It was a matinee show, so they made it back home in time to see the big game. I was rather surprised that their talk the next day was leaning more heavily toward the show than the game. Mom was actually surprised that Dad spent so much on their tickets, (they were "so close you could actually see them sweating under the lights") but afterward, they were considering a road trip to a nearby city to see it again!

A year or 2 down the road several were mooching food.The company said quit feeding them. One day a gal got off her coal hauler to use a porta potty and 1 ran up and bit her on the leg. She had to undergo rabies treatments. The wildlife service was called and all coyotes were shot. You don't want them to not be afraid of people. The 1st one maybe cute but they teach their young bad habits.

Dennis, just try and understand this. President Obama forbids the water boarding crazy-life-hating-terrorists but allows our US Special Operations soldiers to undergo water boarding routinely in their survival, escape and resistance training? Does this mean the US is guilty of ongoing routine torture it's own soldiers and if so, shouldn't President Obama, as Commander in Chief, be held responsible? This is madness and I hope he, the President, snaps out of it before something really bad happens.

Hi Dennis! I first want to say I love your show! You have interesting guests and ask great questions. You have an open, honest curiosity that's adorable! About a week ago, a Christian called in and you asked him if his God specifically wanted him to fight to stop abortions. I'm a Christian and I'd like to add my point of view. Many Christians are inspired by this verse from Proverbs 31:8 - "Open your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die." This is an inspiration to speak out against abortion and euthanasia. We believe Jesus often uses us as His hands and feet and even voice to show His mercy. Just my thoughts. Keep up the great work!

I think it was this that caused me to reflect that you have more humility and honesty than one expects to find in a real show biz star, and that I think in addition to your oft-stated reason for admiring President Bush, you also like him because he, like you, aspired to practice humility and honesty in his actions and his words.

Even in the deepest dungeon of communism it boils down to "I'll give you this if you give me that". Only after the government does it's wealth stealing, skimming, and distributing, the capitalism begins. Even if foreign countries subsidize the auto industry making cars here cheaper our American companies should have competed. If they couldn't then let them shut down their factories and only make cars that can compete with the world market subsidized or not. Even if foreign countries were giving away their cars and products American companies should simply shut down, find something else to do until these countries get tired of giving it away or Americans decide not to purchase them. Government cannot and should not "bail out" any industry. That's what banks and financiers are for. Let Capitalism reign. Capitalism is beautiful.

In addition to Mr. Carlson, I would also like to launch a loafer at USA Today for castigating the president elect for sneaking an occasional smoke. In the next four years Barrak will suffer more stress than a bi-polar air traffic controller on crank, so let him toke. His addiction to tobacco is one of his best features. His smoking habit also provides something for Vice President Elect Joe Biden to do for the next four years. He can follow the President around and every time he exhales some of the noxious fumes, Joe can inhale them, run out of the room and exhale them out of harms way.

Joe Biden, speaking on a news talk show, stated that he intends to bring the feeble reasoning power of his misfiring small bore intellect to bear on the problem of downsizing the expanded role of vice president as practiced by Dick Cheney in the Bush Administration. It appears that diligent Dick, with his intelligence competency, and patriotism, was allowed too much influence to suit Joe. He wants to down size his own participation in the Obama administration to a viral level appropriate the man about to assume the office. Once the job of vice president is eviscerated and simplified into total irrelevancy, one can hope Joe will grow into it.

We need a new law that puts the entire fortunes of thieves at risk if they steal from others while in any position of public trust. Bernie Madoff and his ilk should be made to cough up all his investments, trusts, homes, cash, his freaking golf tees to make restitution. A judge should have the power to hold him in contempt in jail until all overseas assets are returned for restitution. The same applies to family members receiving assets from him since the date of the first theft. Once convicted and having done time, these thieves should be subject to extensive annual audit for the rest of their lives and have to account for the source every cent they spend. Not that I'm bitter.

Per the This Broadcast interview, I believe the reason you don't see the 9/11 pictures any more is because the liberal main stream press is convinced they helps the Bush administration. They view 9/11 as a one of a kind event which W used to drag us into two wars and subsequently used to frighten the American people into re-electing him and supporting legislation which trampled rights and led to abuses. Reminding Americans about the threat of radical Islam works against Democrats who want to reverse the actions he's taken. Out of sight, out of mind and on to important dangerous things like driving on icy roads in the coldest winter in recent memory to a Global Warming lecture.

As of November of last year he was trying to revive Green Acres. I'd like to know more about this project.

Dennis, I'm very torn about how quickly the Walmart Tragedy is already fading from the news this weekend. Its an incident that helps explain our financial crisis due to the loss of trust in our society in all directions. It's aftermath shows our ability to "white-wash" everything that's unpleasant by changing the subject on that which is uncomfortable. Its every bit as evil as terrorism, and in many ways more so because its "casual evil" that just comes out unexpectedly without any pre-mediation. Its very much in the same callous evil vein as the Sarah Palin Halloween gag except with permanent tragedy for a man and his family and freinds. Someone needs to speak out on this and get to the full root about how this type of thing happens in our great country. It needs to be examined from Walmart's perspective, the police/fire department perspective who allowed 2000 people to congregate unsafely, and the shoppers who collectively murdered this man. To vent my frustration on this, I created this horrible imagery to keep the flames stoked on this subject. My point is that people need to condemn this event with the same fervor that they condemn terrorism. To not do so is hypocrisy of the worst kind. http://picasaweb.google.com/nonprofitthinktank/PoliticalSatireFromNPThinkTank#5274775396054329170 -Paul Levy Executive Director The NonProfit ThinkTank?

Sal's Futterman bit brought back memories of my dad and the clothing business. He was a sales promoter helping small business people put on large scale sales to generate operating cash in the 60s through 80s. When I got out of the military in 1971 and got my first professional job, he took me to the clothing wholesalers in the garment district of Los Angeles. I was consequently outfitted with a wardrobe of those infamous double knit polyester jackets, pants and suits that dominated the day. I eventually looked like a polyester Chia Pet as they snagged, of course. These guys in the wholesale district were primarily Jewish, Lebanese and Armenian, Futterman prototypes. Fast forward to this year when I needed a new suit. I went to a store and ran into one of these old time sales pros. He was in his seventies, snappy dresser with suspenders etc. A professional taking real pride in the fit, quality, not letting you go until it was right. This great old guy gave me a step back in time and fond memories of my dad. Some sadness at another part of America I experienced, now disappearing. The replacement seems to be Suits made in India sold at Costco.

You were talking about Margaret Sullavan today (from The Shop Around The Corner). Interesting note: She was married to Henry Fonda for a couple years in the early Thirties. And was married briefly to director William Wyler as well. Her son, William Leland Hayward, was one of the producers of Easy Rider. And, also of interest: Sullavan suffered from depression and a congenital hearing defect in her left ear called otosclerosis that worsened as she aged, making her more and more hard of hearing. On January 1, 1960, she was found dead in a hotel room in New Haven, Connecticut, having succumbed to a deliberate overdose of barbiturates at the age of 50. (Her daughter Bridget died nine months later from an overdose.) Her daughter, actress Brooke Hayward, wrote Haywire, a memoir about her family. It was made into a television movie starring Lee Remick.

I truly do fear this radical swing to the left in policy, and the voters approval of Barney Frank's school of economics. I'm am very bitter, that this far to the left Democratic dirty trick, actually pulled off this "affirmative action" farce. I have to say I'm truly astonished that the American people so shallow to have voted in, such a un-experienced, anti-bisiness, far to the left liberal mostly because of the color of his skin. If Mr Obama were a white man, America would not have voted as we did.

Good Morning Dennis, I want to thank you for being a supporter of the GOP and not being a hater talk show host. I wish we could provide a more civilized discourse representing the right. The left is usually portrayed as the "lefty loons" but some days it's almost preferable than the "self-righteous angry rights". I've just signed up for your site and am a new listener and I really enjoy your show - your humanity comes through very well over the air waves. Thanks and keep up the great work!

In less than 24 hours we've gone from the sacred to the profane. Just like the scene towards the end of Miracle on 34th Street, I'm trying so hard to be like Natalie Wood's character as she's riding in the car: "I believe, I believe, it may be stupid, but I believe." After all, a lot of good folks are pinning their hopes on this guy. But right out of the box we get Rahm Emanuel? In the dictionary under the word, 'idealist,' his picture would be below the heading Antonym. Now that the die is cast, I was hoping that the sleaze could continue to remain quietly buried here in Cook County where we're inured to it, but the choice of a man whose name has been associated with the words, "has not been charged with any wrongdoing," is not a comforting start. How many questionable associations have to come to light before folks start sensing a pattern?

Dennis, The McCain concession speech was one of the most beautiful speeches I've ever heard. If you're looking for a political blue-print of where to take the political tone of your show after the election, you need look no further than the transcript of his speech. It embodies everything he stands for, and everything people like you stand for who are willing to speak their mind honestly and publicly without a pre-set agenda or obsessive ideology. Thanks for being there for keeping the discussion on this campaign so broad, open and sane. Its been wonderful listening to you on the election and I look forward to hearing you on the air for many years. You really fill a void on the airwaves that no one else has even attempted. -Paul Levy

Ms. Phillips feels that McCain gets the whole picture as far as the Islamic war being waged on a number of fronts and she feels Obama views the west as the source of the world's conflicts. Interesting perspective from someone outside the U.S. Love the show! Marian Higgins

You know, I've heard you joke that your film appearances are just "Dennis Miller walking around in a movie", but that performance showed some real (if slightly unsettling) acting talent. Why not explore that talent and make a movie with Sal? You could be the grizzled private eye with a heart of gold, say, and he could be your hardboiled, world-weary partner. Cameos by Spade/Short/Lovitz? Think about it!

However, having said that, you were a little hard on Peter Frampton. "Leif Garrett at Budokan?" Ouch. Besides, I would argue that Peter Frampton redeemed himself as "Reg", the road manager for Humble Pie in "Almost Famous". He purchased Penny Lane for $50 American plus a case of Heineken. Pretty sure he wore a wig for the role as well. He now has a little hair than Leif Garrett, but only because Garrett has gone with the Salmon pate.

Hey Dennis, so you're creeped out by the attacks on Joe the plumber? Welcome to Chicago politics, my friend. Though it hasn't yet been demonstrated that Barack Obama can actually walk on water, so far he's been able to steep in a cesspool without anyone noticing the stink. His mesmerizing aura distracts from what is all too familiar to folks from here: mountains of cash from nebulous sources, too many fraudulent voter registrations to be practically challenged, intimidating all opposition, and stonewalling the press. What's still to come are sops tossed to the voters to secure their fealty, rule changes cementing a lasting hold on power, and well-connected snouts gorging themselves at the federal trough. In Chicago, we don't get to vote for "nobody nobody sent." Those doing the sending then extract payback for their pains - the local definition of spreading the wealth. What's left for us is the privilege of picking up the tab. But pay no attention to the doughy, ham-fisted guys behind the curtain, because the great and powerful Oz promises he'll grant us all our wishes. Change is coming all right, but it's not going to look like Kansas.

Dennis, I do not agree with your assertion that a majority of Americans are now leaning toward socialism. I think their signing on to the Obama re-distribution plan all falls back to "Class Envy" mentallity and this is another chance to stick it to the rich. Unfortunately, many of these people are rich, as defined by Washington in general and Obama in particular, although they don't consider themselves to be. I expect a lot of buyers remorse if Obama wins this.

Brian M. wrote at 8:27 PM on Oct-28-2008:

Hi Dennis -First time, long time. I was just thinking, seeing as how Barack Obama has that Jim Morrisonesque mole on his face, he should adopt "Break on Through" as his personal theme music; but he should tweak it a little - "People of America, in the words of the great rock 'n roll star, and horrible poet, Jim Morrison, we're gonna Ba-rock on through to the other side on November 4th. Ba-rock on through, ba-rock on through, yeah, yeah, yeah..." Actually, it would probably come off as a cheap political stunt to look hip because Obama actually seems a little stuffy to me. But then Joe Biden could take the mic and belt out an impassioned "Mr. Mo-Joe Biden, Mr. Mo-Joe Biden, got to keep on Biden, Biden, Biden..." A little passion would do him good - cut a crease in that forehead. I like McCain, but even when he smiles, he looks angry. Great show Dennis - gets me through the day.
