Hey, that's the Phantom Pooper from Eisenhower High School, Class of 78. He would defecate in random places, thought he was really funny. They set up a hidden camera and caught him. Another kid stole the film and spliced it into the Marching Band presentation where they usually show slides of summer and fall band trips, you know, the one they show after the big winter indoor concert where all the kids, parents and VIPs are in the gym.

I'll never forget that face. I laughed until snot ran down off my chin. Honest to god. Charles something. Been a long time, but that's him.

Let's complete these sentences properly.

You're a racist if you support ANY candidate, of ANY race, for no other reason than because of his race.

That is, you're NOT a racist if you judge a candidate not by the color of his skin but by the content of his character.

Cain is a man of admirable character. Obama is a man of execrable character.

I support Cain. I oppose Obama.

Next question?

News flash: "Glory" was a MOVIE. A piece of historical fiction. Morgan Freeman is an ACTOR. He is paid, quite well, to read lines written by others. Sort of like the teleprompter Marxist we'd like to make a one-term president.

Racism? When in the history of politics has it NOT been the express purpose of the opposition party to deprive a holder of political office of the opposite party, regardless of race, of another term?

This is insanity. And Morgan Freeman is an expert on nothing because he looks good on camera and reads lines well.

There was a time when an audience would sit through a mature discussion such as that shown in the first video. We've made a lot of changes since this was filmed, and not only in the hairlines of the participants. Voters these days want a discussion, but only one that will fit on competing bumper stickers. Half of the kids in college today couldn't care less about the facts and figures mustered by Cain. They'd fall asleep at about the 1:30 mark of this debate.

Sad, but true.

12 years ago @ Big Hollywood - Dennis Miller Endorses... · 0 replies · +2 points

In my mind, one of the greatest assets Miller brings to the campaign is his quick wit and comedic sense. He is a past master of holding the ridiculous up to ridicule. Cain's a serious man, not a facile teleprompter reader like the current POTUS/POS. Miller will make short work of the buffoons among the Marxists, and the thinking of the electorate may finally be cleared up somewhat by a refreshing sense of humor coming down, for a change, on the conservative side of the spectrum. I always thought that Chevy Chase did more to defeat Gerald Ford than the albatross of the Nixon pardon and the Carter campaign combined. His weapon was ridicule, and he applied it in a slapstick manner, much as TIna Fey has toward Sarah Palin. Getting Miller, with his cutting wit, out front, making fun of the target-rich environment for a thinking comic that the Left represents will be worth the price of admission.

Hey, they have Saturday Night Live -- now we have Dennis Miller. No contest, in my mind.

Obama must simply LOVE small businesses.

He's created so many of them. Of course, they started as large businesses.

The central idea you put forth -- that the truly deserving have been ripped off by the scammers -- is telling. It is at the heart of the way many of us believe. There are folks who truly do have a legitimate claim to compensation for injury. Then there are the freeloaders who fraudulently qualify for whatever is being paid.

It's the same with welfare, food stamps, you name it. It is how the "safety net" begins to look more like a "hammock" for the unscrupulous who are taking food out of the mouths of the truly needy and helpless in society. They are beneath contempt, and, sadly, beyond the reach of our contemporary laws.
