Bonehead of the Week: Dennis Miller

The election is over, but some folks are still pimping—sadly, we're not kidding—the legend of Sarah Palin.

As the following quote demonstrates, you can say just about anything on Bill O'Reilly's program. Here are the unedited words of former-comedian-turned-nutcase Dennis Miller:

She’s a great dame. People are fascinated by her because the Left hate her. I think the Left hate her — mostly women on the Left hate her — because to me from outside in it appears that she has a great sex life, all right? I think she has non-neurotic sex with that Todd Palin guy. … I think that snow mobile looks like mechanized foreplay to me and that’s why people are fascinated.
What the hell is Miller smoking these days? He seriously thinks Lefties hate Palin because she seems to have a good sex life?

Unlike Miller, we hesitate to engage in highly speculative (not to mention dubious) pop psychology. But we suspect this kind of nonsense says a lot more about Miller and his problems that it does about Lefties.

Successful comedy usually comes from the point of view of the underdog or outsider. Identifying with the dominant power just isn't funny. That's one reason Miller's schtick was so lame during the reign of the neo-Fascist Bush administration.

Maybe Miller will become funny again, now that his GOP is pretty much in the crapper. But I doubt it. There's a little more to it.
