"Dennis Miller - serious question - Does he have brain damage?"


          

Somehow I ended up hearing this yesterday - and he's really really really unfunny.
"A skeeter that has the Zika!"
"I think Fareed's a Biden guy - if you know what I mean."

So the question is: Is Dennis Miller brain damaged?

Or is he just a piece of shit?

Or, is he both?

After seeing how quickly Donald was able to raise campaign cash over the past couple weeks, he's prob trying to pander extra hard to the Alt-Right, for prosperity's sake.
I bet he's pissed Scott Baio got a slot at the RNC instead of him.

I suppose if he really wanted to he could turn that round now. I haven't even seen him at all in probably 9 years, at least.

he even hosted dubya bush in one his rare appearances in the bay area as prez.

otherwise 'dennis miller live' was pretty left-leaning.

In response to Reply # 5


  

          

Before Franken became a Senator, I remember read him talking about how people would come up to him after Miller's 9/11 conversion and ask him "What's wrong with Dennis?", and he'd reply, "He's pretty much the same Dennis as he's always been."

This is what prompted it for me. He use to be at least kind of funny - sometimes. Never no more.

Then maybe we need to edit this thread to ask if I have brain damage.

Dennis Weaver - T.V.'s Cloud - died in 2006.

When I was a child I thought Bill Cosby had died - turned out it was Bing Crosby.

...but the punchline payoffs were hilarious, to me at least. check out the flight attendant bit and white people at a black wedding bit from his "black and white" special.

his weekend update on SNL was fire too.

and i think he's one of the only white comedians to get cheered at the Apollo.

i LOL'd tho when he said he was canned from MNF because madden was coming onboard and there couldn't be a third guy. no, it's because you flat out sucked.
