You're In Trouble, Babe
Time was, I might have paid good money to see Dennis Miller do a standup act.
Now, apparently, I could earn $15.00 for sitting through an episode of his newly-conservative talk show. If I were only in LA. And if only I could stomach the thought of spending an hour watching one of America's formerly sharpest satirists, not afraid of stepping on the toes of either side, now spewing the Bush party line like a Huguenot anarchist contracting Stockholm Syndrome in the clutches of Torquemada. Miller not only drank the party-line Koolaid, he slugged it down like Dylan Thomas at the White Horse after finding out Caitlin ran off with Zelda.
Republican shills ≠ funny. I'm sorry but it's true. Read "Mallard Fillmore" if you don't believe me. Of course, that's just my opinion...I could be wrong.

And now we understand why George Carlin did the opposite switch 30 years ago.
