: Honestly, it was like Dennis was having one of those days where he just couldnt keep up. Maybe it was his time of the month. None of his comments or arguments were even that well thought out or relevant. David Alterman looked like a genius in comparison - not that the studio audience was really with him. He talks and then Dennis says something snide. He talks more and Dennis says something involving a *bleep*.
: When you're having an involved discussion with someone - at least you should be able to argue the other side, rather than just saying "Yeah, well... you suck". Not that he did that, but close enough.
I guess everybody has bad days. It's not like I live and die by the words of Dennis Miller, but I always thought he presented himself in an articulate way and at least thought out his rebuttals. If he would have thrown the guy off by using a big word that he didn't understand...kudos. But like you said, the "you suck" argument is something I just don't expect from that guy.
Oh well, life goes on. Just another human in the world.
