42. Look, I don't mean to go on a rant or anything...
but why is it that the entertainers who happen to do the most conservative work are the out of work ones? Funny, but when "Dennis Miller" used to share paragraphs with "Pogo Ball," "acid wash jeans," and "Tears for Fears," I don't remember any rallying for freeing Ollie North or letting up on Clarence Thomas. But, magically, countless commercials and 2 or 3 failed talk shows later, you can't even get bumped up from the 20 minute wait for seating at the Hometown Buffet, and NOW you're all mad at liberal Hollywood, for its awful lack of morals, and how its derisive nature tears us apart, and who the hell is this "Federline" guy who's allowed into clubs that used to let you stride in, Gordon Gecko hair and all?

Because it sure as hell has nothing to do with your wise career decisions. I mean, "Monday Night Football?" Hell, I haven't seen a decision that poorly made since Michael Caine skipped the Oscars to film "Jaws 3." What, did you really think that what you brought to Weekend Update(um....Bryll Creme?) could be magically transformed beside John Madden. Here's a little sidenote, cha-cha, people laugh at him when he's unintentionally funny, which I'm sure you'd still take the same way Jim Belushi takes autograph requests from clueless sorts who don't know John died.

Secondly, CNBC?! A talk show on CNBC, known for comedy mastermind Maria Bartiromo? Just for shits and giggles, maybe we could run that show and Jay Mohr's failed ESPN talk show on a loop and see if we could create a contained black hole with all that sucking on one plane.

But, hey, this is just my opinion, and I know that when you were saying "I am outta here," you know that "here" meant "cultural relevance." Say hi to Bocephus when he drops by to see Hannity, too.
