Publisher's Summary
Dennis Miller is here, folks, and he takes no prisoners. Whether the subject is dope-addled baseball players, do-nothing politicians, or the nation's resigned acceptance of violence as a way of American life, Miller's monologues are funny and angry. More significantly, they shatter the conventions of comedy by simultaneously making us laugh, think, and seethe. Here at last is a collection of 35 of Miller's favorite invigorating and thought-provoking rants, showcasing his singular point of view. Of course, they're just his opinions. He could be wrong.
Don't miss more rants.
(P) and ©1996 Dennis Miller, Bantam Doubleday Dell Audio Publishing, A Division of Random House Inc.

"Remember When He Was Really Funny"
This was Dennis Miller's first series of rants and now that I've listened to them maybe twenty times over the last twenty years, they're still funny. The author reads his own work naturally, and the entertainment chops he built up through all his years of performing are on display. Miller is intellectually inclined, erudite and his delivery is perfect. For those of you who are familiar only with his post 9/11 right wing screeds against anyone to the left of Joe McCarthy you are in for a pleasant surprise when you hear his balanced, well spoken,fairly mainstream opinions on all manner of cultural and political subjects, it's just over an hour in length and you'll be entertained throughout the entire book.

"the rants good but old."
It's really good but dated. Younger listeners will probably miss most of the references. here's my extra word to meet the word requirements for a review.
