1. Would someone be kind enough to give us a synopsis?

I listened for a few seconds...then Dennis opened his mouth. Had to close the page. :puke: Couldn't stomach more.

3. Jesus, Miller is a moron

I knew he was a moron, but damn, they should fire him right now. He phoned in that stupid interview.

4. I'm in need of a transcript

for the 3rd time I am crashed from the MSGOP website. Maybe it's the Mac, I dunno. Can someone post the transcript for me?

9. I don't know if

the Miller show does transcripts, but here is a recap.

5. Countdown to cancellation

Miller can't even hold his stacked audience's attention

6. I can almost see the flop sweat.

There's an air of desperation to Miller. I think he knows he's teetering on the brink of cancellation.

7. Alterman thought Miller was drunk.

I forget where I saw the commentary, but Alterman said that Miller's pre-interview by the staff suggested he wanted to talk about real things. When he got out there, Miller was...well, the surly creep in the video.

After the interview, Miller's staff apologized all over the place, saying they didn't know what got into their host. I have a feeling that Miller's gotten some drug purchasing tips from Rush Limbaugh. Heck, if Oxycontin made Rush the darling of the dittoheads, whatever Miller is on should make him a video star!

8. I hate him a million, trillion, zillion times more...

...after watching that. The insufferable little motherfucker. And do they pay employees of his show to sit in the audience and laugh and applaud. It reminded me of his lame commercials where he says something like, "CNBC, it means 'Yes, NB, yes'" and you hear some lame-ass in the background laughing. There's no way this guy has a REAL and appreciative audience. That video just distilled everything that I have NEVER liked about Dennis Miller. I want BAD things to happen to that man.
