Bill Maher, Islam, Berkeley

Anarchists till they get the power, then tyrants.

 

Run out of blue?

 

No- Miller has talent.
Maher is a scarecrow in an autumn field.
Like most in his phylum. Not self-loathing like Jon Stewart, though.

 

Well, to use a metric Dennis Miller's fans will understand...Bill Maher is clearly more succesful.

Not to mention, Bill Maher currently hosts an hour-long talk show on the top network on premium cable...while Dennis Miller's busy recording radio spots for a BMW dealership in the Valley.

 

Meh.
Maher is not only unfunny, he's mean-spirited and a scumbag.
He thusly panders to angry, incurious and intolerant people, all under the guise of "comedy."
And of course he's a hypocrite.

Maher is mean-spirited. He is a scumbag.

He's also damn funny and that's from someone who disagrees with most of what he says politically.

Political humor is tough and most people who think they can pull off what Jon Stewart makes look easy, fail miserably.

 

He and Rula may have gone to fuck it out at the Eastside Motel.

I can't stand Maher, but Miller is equally untalented. I've tried to read some of his books, and not only is just about every single joke a pop-culture reference, and most of them don't even make sense. I can't remember any Miller work I've enjoyed.

 

Thank you. I have never EVER, thought Dennis Miller was funny.

Not a Maher fan, either.

 

Miller wasn't bad on Weekend Update, but in that format, other people were writing most of his jokes. His own material is smug and annoying.

 

Seen Miller live in the past year, thought he was funny as ever. His vocabulary and pull-a-hamstring-reaching-for-obscure-references schtick always gets me laughing, because it's in the same ballpark as a lot of us who write and try for that next metaphor or analogy. When he goes for some goofy (and even dated) Lorne Greene/Bonanza and his sons reference, I can hear past editors whacking it from my stories, and I celebrate that Miller doesn't have to cope with them.

Maher, to me, is just a sleazoid and a nihilist.

 

Maher says he wants to speak. Administration takes decision away from students, says invitation will stand.
