Libs are constantly being fed crap they already believe so they don't bother questioning reality as they see it.

Jimmy thinks it's weird to be a conservative American comic when the real oddity is that Dennis appears to be center right and free from the bile of the majority who cling together at opposite ends of the political spectrum, scared shitless to take a step towards center ground and sanity. He comes across as a very affable and intelligent guy.

    This is actually really great. Someone from the other side that Jimmy seems to respect. I think it is ignorant and self righteous of Kimmel to be so surprised that a comedian can be conservative, but at least he voiced the question to Dennis Miller who fielded it nicely and can maybe talk some sense to Jimmy. Dennis is right. Conservatives can act like the elders in Footloose, but liberals have actually taken up that judgemental mantel in the last 15 years or so. The left has become the moralistic finger shakers at their opponents and everyone is sick of it. And it really isn't as edgy, rebellious and brave to be a liberal comedian like it was way back. There is nothing too daring or shocking about it.

      Honey comedians are never normal. Funny and awkward yes. But if he were a liberal would he be normal?

      I never understood the "3,000 lb gorilla" thing during those credits.

    Maybe he should remember that when he does his monologue. "Comedy is stronger than politics" Hypocrite

    I used to think Kimmel was really funny, now I can't stomach Hollyweird trying to tell us how we should think

      Republicans are trying to force women who have become impregnated via rape to have children by their rapists because of their religious beliefs, including in the case of incestuous rape, but you're suggesting Jimmy is trying to tell you how to think?

    Miller's obscure similes and sub-references culled from pop culture, psychology, history and literature have always made me laugh ever since Weekend Update on SNL. Only Miller would describe square dancing as "being ordered around the floor by a neo-facist Sam Drucker that turns into a bizarre BF Skinner hoedown."

    Anyone remember the days when a comedian was judged on whether they were funny or not?

    I've been trying to give out the same message lately, don't judge/value people on the D or R "after their name". Don't play the labeling game, branding unknown people based on the merits of the worst people you can think of, that's REALLY dangerous.

    Love Dennis and I love his message about not caring what ones politics are about as to whether or not you can be friends with them! Would have loved to been at that dinner table.
