Alterman on Miller 

Did anyone else catch Eric's appearance on Dennis Miller last night? Every time I think public discourse has hit bottom, something like this comes along. Apparently Miller planned to entrap Eric in some pointless debate about whether Bush "misled" on WMD, and when Eric refused to take the bait, he spent the remainder of the segment boorishly sneering at him. And it wasn't even clever sneering. Miller makes Ann Coulter look like Dorothy Parker, O'Reilly like Edward R. Murrow. To switch the Tivo from Miller to The Daily Show was like snapping out of some bad acid trip.

Then Stewart reminded viewers of this, and the bottom dropped again.

It's going to be a long 7 1/2 months.

UPDATE: You can view the segment here.
