Leary is not a conservative...here he is on the subject of George W Bush- "White men have screwed this country up! I would like a black, female…. everything all rolled into one.I want something different. I want a real change. People, I want a president who speaks well, who has a sense of humor. This guy is such a moron! It's beyond the point where it's a joke. He's an idiot."

One is a good comedian and one is a jerk, who don't even write most of his material.

But he's a comic genius compared to a hack like Miller.
