Greetings from Vancouver, Dennis. May I share with you that I woke up this morning, listened to the news for awhile and then realized I was insufficiently cynical. I shall correct that forthwith!

Jan Brewer is showing TRUE leadership and should not be subjected to the razing from the Fed's of the press. Perhaps a simpler and more economical solution is to provide FREE bus tickets to any undocumented American to Washington DC,or any State that is in support of the Fed actions against Arizona. Force them deal with the problem.

Joe tells people along the way that "Barry" stole something important from him and he wants it back. Joe ends up being questioned by NBC News (as they want to use him to portray the movement).

Long time listener and first time comment. Had to write when I heard your comments on the new NIKE/Tiger Woods commercial on 4/08 with Tiger's Dad's "words-of-wisdom" voice over. You didn't seem to know what to make of it.
As a husband and father of 2, I see it like this. It's pretty simple:
To cheat on your wife and family, not once but several times, is egregious.
To use your own father's voice and instruction in a NIKE ad to restore your commercial acceptance with the public is despicable.
Tiger should be ashamed. Don't exploit your father's wisdom and teaching in a commercial to restore your own reputation for financial gain.

Our rulers don't have to participate in Obamacare? The Romans had a saying for that: "Quod licet Jovi, non licet bovi." Or, "What is OK for the gods, is not OK for the cattle." That's us -- the cattle. That's them -- the gods. They're the rulers, the aristocracy, the nomenklatura, just like the Communist nomenklatura in the U.S.S.R., with special privileges, special stores, special schools, special everything. Are we going to put up with being ruled by this aristocracy?

Congressman Thad McCotter was on "RedEye" last night, and he said Obamacare shows Big Government is a special interest. That's it exactly -- our government doesn't represent us. They have their own agenda and their own ideology.
My viewpoint: when I was in grade school, way back when, we had the best education in the world. Everybody assumed it would continue. Nobody could ever have DREAMED of the total devastation that would be wreaked on our schools.
Likewise, it's hard to imagine how our medical care -- expensive, but the best in the world -- will be turned into a dingy, decrepit, stinking third-world slough of despond like Cuba's.

Every time I hear some "expert" gushing over nuclear power, I notice they seem to conflate the terms "safe" and "clean". It is NOT safe, long term. The only safe nuclear power is that which is 93 million miles away and filtered by an atmoshere which is as permanently and automatically maintained by nature as life itself. Uncorking the power of the stars here on earth reminds me of Mickey Mouse as the Sorceror's Apprentice in Disney's FANTASIA. The "safe" use of nuclear power requires constant and careful use of complicated and beurocratic human infrastructure, and anything human is fallible. With atomic radiation, the physical danger is relatively immortal. The proper care of any given quantity of radioactive material must necessarily span many generations. Can any of the experts guarantee that those born hundreds of years from now will still be responsible stewards of the thousands of Genies they propose to loose upon our world? If environmentalists have ever been right about anything, they were right a generation ago about halting construction of nukes.

It reminds me of two kids on a playground and the one kid that keeps saying, "I'm rubber, you're glue, everything bounces off me and sticks to you."

In addition, they have imposed mandates that insurance companies cover various specific illnesses and treatments -- you can't just buy insurance for EXPENSIVE illnesses. Government is wrecking the insurance business, so they'll have an excuse to take over.

Dennis, I love you, but as someone who is currently in the Marines, I can tell you: the reason for Don't Ask/Don't Tell is not that the military is morally or culturally antiquated, as you seem to suggest.
There are UCMJ rules against fraternization even between ranks, let alone genders. We already separate troops by those distinctions (e.g., different barracks, billets, etc.) Romantic relationships are supposed to be forbidden, and by eradicating the military's ability to separate potential lovers, you are introducing big problems in terms of a unit's ability to efficiently execute its operations. Our job is to defend and enforce--we do not want to accommodate your love life.
We don't care if some feel we are morally obsolete, and contrary to some claims.
I don't see why so many CIVILIANS feel that WE, the military, have to be reformed to reflect THEIR fleeting social sensibilities.

Hey Dennis,
A few weeks ago the show spent a few days in thoughtful discussion about why or how God caused the tragedy in Haiti. I for one don't profess to have any idea of how to answer the question. Perhaps if I were only as smart as Pat Robertson or Danny Glover. I do know it seems to be in our collective DNA to always immediately look for someone to blame for any misfortune that touches our lives. Fair enough. The day before yesterday a 15 year old girl was pulled alive from the rubble after 15 days. Don't our scientists tell us it's impossible for a human to live for more than a few days without water? Today the young girl's family and friends feel truly blessed by this even in the midst of unbelievable devastation. Would it be fair to wonder why we don't seem to be willing to spend as much time reflecting on our blessings or even miracles as we do on our misfortune? That's my rant for the day.

When they are finally closed in on and the ultimate conflict is imminent, they still foolishly believe that they can devise an escape plan. Unfortunately, they are outnumbered by the hundreds and are obliterated immediately. Bad guys are bad guys, and cockiness doesn't help the situation.
Dennis, The just released "Fort Hood Report" is a new level of dangerous political correctness at the expense of national security. Based on the report, one can only conclude that the military's policy of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" now extends fully to Islamic Fundamentalist Terrorist as well.

Why? Because Uncle Sam owned everything - his career, his assets, his very name and essence. It took the former prosecuting attorney of that time - the same man who brought down E.F. Hutton - to get a portion of his financial mess tidied up, but I have a feeling there is still alot of unspoken business there. I know you're gonna want to interview Birkback after that.

Mark Steyn's masterwork "America Alone" is greatly concerned with issues of demography. When I read the obituary of Gene Barry in the paper today, I couldn't help thinking of that. I loved Barry and still enjoy watching War of the Worlds (never gonna see the Tom Cruise version, ick) and while I was too young for Bat Masterson when it was on, I loved Burke's Law and caught it every chance I got.
At the end of the obituary, the list of survivors mentions 3 children, 3 grandchildren, and 2 great-grandchildren.
Granted the time-clock hasn't run out yet, but still, that struck me as symptomatic. Gene Barry and his wife produced children, which led to grandchildren, which led to great-grandchildren... If it had been just Gene and his wife that resulted in 2 great-grandchildren, then the population balance remains steady. But others were involved too. The parents of those who married the children of Gene and his wife and produced those children and grandchildren... At the very least there were a total of 4, who produced 3, and then 2...
That's demography and population-shrinkage in the modern world in a popular and well-known and -loved nutshell.

Our President and his idiot press secretary said (and keep saying) the most amazingly stupid statements which are essentially, 'we have to stop and reverse climate change'. It seems they never take a moment to think about what they are saying (especially when there is so much taxing and redistributing to do). Can you believe our president is trying to sell Americans and the world on such an obvious oxymoron? Note to the President: Climate Always Changes! Period. Imagine having to tell this to a Harvard Professor and United States President(a Harvard education ain't what it used to be)!
I just wish these GW cultists would be a bit more practical and instead of charging after windmills trying to save the whole wide world at once, they would instead focus on real problems such as pollution here or heal a stream there...that I could and would support. But I realize it is much harder to get billions in grant money and to push through new huge new taxes on the real problems we face. We are definitely falling through a weird bunny hole...I pray that the other end is ruled by common sense.

Mostly this is the mellowing of age (I've got a couple of years on you, so I know what that's about -- but it seems clear that your transition to the Bush/Cheney-supporting Dark Side had some labor pains to it. Now that you're Over Here with the rest of us, you take your stands with clarity and equanimity, and have become the only pundit/talker who NEVER gives me ear fatigue.

NH soldier gets $445k after being illegally fired
By Associated Press
November 27, 2009 10:39 AMJAFFREY, N.H. - A New Hampshire soldier has been awarded $445,000 for being demoted and then fired after he returned from Iraq.
Sgt. Stephen Fryer of Jaffrey is a member of a Massachusetts National Guard unit based in Gardner.
He sued A.S.A.P Fire and Safety Corp., of Tyngsborough last winter. Fryer claimed that when he returned from an Iraq deployment in May 2008 the company refused to rehire him.
He was eventually rehired, but was demoted. He says he was fired when he asked for his old job back.
Fryer says the lawsuit was for all members of the armed services and their families.
A.S.A.P. owner Joseph Sheedy tells the New Hampshire Union Leader he will appeal. Sheedy says Fryer was fired because he didn't show up for work.

Hey there Horatio,
Somethin's beginning to bug me!
A snake and a gerbil,
A tiger and a pig,
a cat and a bird,
A dog, a cat, and a mouse.
I keep getting the emails with photos of strange nature pairings.
Don't get me wrong.I don't mind that in the least.
I think its interesting to see natures predators verses prey in a state of confusion. Even born instincts can be overcome.
It's the moral message they ALWAYS include.
(whinny voice)
"Why can't we all just get along too?"
So,
Let me try to esplain' it to you Lucy!
ANIMALS DON'T THINK!
WE THINK!
Over SIX BILLION of us.
Thinking to the power of leisure.
No leisure time equals daily survival.
More leisure time affords us the time to THINK, and apparently, get confused.
We all THINK we have stuff and we all THINK we want stuff.
e.g. possessions, power, wealth.
Some THINK they have less, while others THINK they have more.
Some THINK they want more, while others THINK they are content.
We have "RULES OF ACQUISITION"!
It's called "civilized" society.
This rock in space is covered with many groups.
Codes of behavior to benefit the group.
Some more "civilized" than others.
Corruptible? YES
Most are controlled by predators to benefit a smaller group that THINKS alike at the expense of all the Gerbils.
Not ALWAYS fair for the individual prey? I THINK NOT!
Some predators THINK the rules don't apply.
Some predators THINK they should CHANGE the rules, at the expense of the group, to benefit themselves.
Apparently there are fifty-one states in the USA. The "State of Confusion" is predator heaven. Its populated with some very well fed tigers and snakes.
If you THINK you are "ENTITLED" based on want alone, tell your boss he needs to pay you to stay home and watch soaps. OOPS, sorry, I forgot you don't need to work to survive.
If you THINK some "under-achieving" "under privileged" knucklehead living in a trailer THINKS he should have your House and Prius and all your stuff is fair, then I THINK you should take down the gate and cancel the Brinks service.
If you THINK those less "civilized" societies controlled by a small group of ego-maniacal predatory zealots should rule the world, go ahead you confused Gerbil find a snake and cuddle....
If you are unable to open your minds eye and see the teeth, at least THINK about: "Not sending me those damnable emails".

Hi Dennis,
I have a solution that will resolve all the issues for the terrorist trials…
Try them via military trail.
Once all 5 are convicted, they can then be flown back to the United States at time which the following should occur and be broadcast on Al Jazeera and Fox News only.
Fly Terrorist #1 over Shanksville PA in a C-130 and push him out the back of the plane, but he would be inside the deflated balloon used by the Balloon Boy.
Fly terrorist #2 over the Pentagon parking lot and just throw him out after making him flap his arms before “launch”
Fly Terrorist #3 & #4 over the Twin Tower Sites in a Helicopter. At the height of 1362 ft throw out #3, Once he lands, the helo ascends to a height of 1368 ft and then #4 is ejected.
Finally, number five should be flown to Ft Lewis where upon and will be tasked to run up and down the target area of the rifle range providing more realistic training for the troops. The soldier that nails him automatically qualifies as a rifle expert.
This plan should appease Holder’s argument that the victim’s family should get to see them. (Knucklehead).

Happy birthday Dennis! Sal insisted that all gifts be cleared through him. If you're wondering where your travel-sized "Dancing With The Stars" scoring paddles are I overnighted them to Sal's lair. It's an extra $10.00 charge by UPS for lair delivery but you're worth every penny. Hope you like them.

Hey Dennis,
I'm curious whether you heard of Boeing's latest moves? I wrote about it here: http://pelalusa.blogspot.com/2009/11/tale-of-two-states.html
One wonders if Washington State is headed the way of California?

Dennis, my Dr. Corsi costume was a great hit on Halloween. The mask and trench coat with the secret transmitter worked out great! Too bad I couldn't afford to rent the optional black helicopter to follow me around. Maybe next year...

Dennis, I'll add my two cents, backed by the gold standard, on Nick DiPaolo. He had me in stitches on your last 4th Hour and on your 10/28 show. I don't think I'll ever again be able to look at a thin-skinned person without bursting out in laughter. The man deserves his own show!

Greetings from Canada's Left Coast, Dennis! Two quick questions:
1. How did you & Sal originally meet?
2. Do you think there was something unique about your parents that lead both you & your brother into show business?

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Man, I needed a laugh badly and you delivered in spades today. You have such a great show and your guests are always awesome.
BTW, Larry Miller and Nick DiPaolo are comic gods. Please sir, may I have another!

Dennis, love the show! Earlier today I learned that apparently it's not a good idea to look for Chuck Norris on the internet. Go to Google, type in "Location of Chuck Norris", and hit the "I'm Feeling Lucky Button"...prepare for a good laugh. Keep up the great work on the show!

YES, Dennis!! Get Nick DiPaolo a show.
He hits it out of the park every time. Way out!

Warning Will Rodgers!!! Never ever listen to the 4th hour from your ipod while driving! I had three near accidents on the way home and it is only a nine mile trip! The second incident resulted in me being pulled over for laughing while driving! It was only when I played Nick's joke about Obama being thin skinned to the officer was I able to be let go without a ticket. The cop was not driving very well either as he also pulled away with sobbing tears in his eyes from laughing!

Hey Dennis, Just heard that Thadeus McCotter wants to give us a tax deduction for pet care - up to $3,500 per year. I have always enjoyed him on your show, but you must ask him about this next time he is on. Do I now have to subsidize little Jimmy's hamster's chemo? What is happening to this country?

Dennis,
A month or so ago, there was talk about the movie "Motel Hell". That was the one about the farmer that was burying victims in the backyard alive and fattening them up to make sausage out of them. Just FYI. That movie is on IFC this month and it's on this afternoon (Tuesday) at 4:15 pacific time.

What the Congress is cooking up with Obamacare is the worst of all possible worlds. They mandate you buy Insurance but the penalties for not buying are minor, so many will opt out until they get sick, including the young and healthy. The rest of us who have to have insurance due to our age or families etc. will see our premiums skyrocket. Soon people will be howling for a cheaper option. So in comes the Public Option. The liberals win! Now the question is: Are they so clever they know this will happen? Or are they so stupid, they don't know it will happen? Take your pick.

Greetings, Mr. Miller.
During the ephemeral 4th Hour today, you discussed briefly about bumper stickers. I'm currently working on building a web-based store selling "Anti-Bumper-Sticker" bumper stickers. One of them (and the one I have on my car right now) is one that reads "Nobody Cares what your bumper stickers says". It can be read as a response to all the Obama bumper stickers you referred to, but it's mainly against the stickers in general.
I can send one to you for the bulletin board in the studio gratis, if you'd like.

Lately, you're on fire!, and Sal and the guys sound like they're extremely flammable, right in there with you.
Fard Muhammad wrote at 12:04 AM on Oct-18-2009:
Almost two years ago, I called in to the show during a Dennis Ex Machina segment saying that being a fan of yours was one of many reasons one particular young lady had any interest in chatting with me when she read my profile on an internet dating site. We started to date, and whenever the conversation went to you and your comedy, we had a nickname for you: "The Great One".
Fast forward to today. That young lady is now my wife, and on the 23rd, we will have been together in matrimony for 5 years. While you and I agreed during my call from 2007 that you weren't a major reason for us getting together, you were a catalyst in what you referred to as the "bouillabaisse of love" for me and m'lady. Thanks again.

Dennis,
Should you or your staff need to contact me this weekend, I must inform you that I will be in my backyard and quite busy working on the final stages of a prototype helium balloon, airship, or what I have termed: a stabilized universal elastic, space unifying eco-module, pseudo-dirigible identified object or, abbreviated, a “Sue Sue Pseudo I O” (with respect to Phil Collins). My plan is to finish the craft, inflate it with flammable helium, and insufficiently tether it to weak stakes in the ground in the back yard, leaving a small astro-travelers compartment at the base of the craft, completely accessible and unsecured from neighborhood children and pets. Just thought I would let you know.

Hypocrisy alert: Isaiah Thomas (former Guard from the Detroit Pistons) was famously quoted as ignorantly saying Larry Bird was overrated and would be seen as just an average basketball player if he were black. A stupid statement and racial if not racist. Isaiah later became a coach and GM and part owner of NBA teams.
Rush makes a similar ignorant/racial comment about Donovan McNabb and he is beaten to a pulp by the media, and several years after that comment is kicked-out out of a NFL part-owner bid???? I'm not Rush fan, but the double standard is not good for these supposed post-racial times. What a joke.

Hey Dennis,
So, Roger Godell has set the standard for participation in the NFL. I for one am glad to see it. His statement- "I've said many times before we're all held to a high standard here, and I think divisive comments are not what the NFL is all about. I would not want to see those comments coming from people who are in a responsible position in the NFL, absolutely not." I'm not a big fan of Rush but apparently you can't participate in the NFL if you've even been accused of saying something true or not. That's holding an organization to a high bar. I guess the convicted felons, accused wife and girlfriend beaters, tax cheats, drunk drivers, accused rapists, and other assorted miscreants currently receiving large checks each week for their participation in the NFL will be receiving their pink slips today.I say with tongue only partially in cheek.

Dennis, I was wondering if you can tell me something? In my line of work I find myself surrounded by simple minds, & I've been in non-stop debate mode ever since the POTUS campaign began in earnest (even more so since the coronation). For obvious reasons, healthcare deform is a hot topic, but the more I talk to people the more I have to wonder...
Does Obamacare cover bleeding hearts & constipation of the brain? If not, we should all just give up now...
Keep up the great work, Dennis!

In an effort to curry favor with the gay community, Obama has promised he will do away with "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" at some unspecified time in the future. An alternative bill, "Ask and if I tell you I am gay, Don't worry... I'm here to defend my country, not have sex" enjoys wide support in the gay community. Critics, however, say its too deferential to gays and is a bit "clumsy" in its wording. A simpler bill designed to put the issue to rest once and for all is expected to be presented next week. It's called simply "Don't."

Also, any chance of a Ray Charles bumper music Wed?.
Great shows, as always, Dennis. Thanks!
