Topplebush.com
urges our viewers to take the topplebush.com pledge
to boycott Dennis Miller
whenever he appears on the Tonight Show. If you
would like to read more information on this issue,
there are two commentaries
we have written in addition to our own letter
to Jay Leno below. To take the topplebush.com
pledge to boycott Dennis Miller, all you have
to do is Submit
our form and it will be sent directly to the
Tonight Show. We need to send in enough letters
to make a noticeable dent in the Nielson ratings
so it affects advertising revenues. We also urge
anyone participating in Nielson ratings during
a Dennis Miller appearance to NOT watch Leno during
this time.
Dear
Jay,
I
have noticed that you have allowed Dennis Miller
to appear on your program way too frequently to
bash all Democrats while selling the complete
Bush agenda. We at topplebush.com are strongly
opposed to the Bush/Cheney White House because
of the damage being done to our country and the
world. As you are aware about 2.7 million jobs
have been lost since Bush has been in office.
The economy is in serious trouble because of huge
deficits created by several rounds of tax cuts
for the rich and the costs of wars that weren't
necessary to our security or world peace. And
the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are going so
poorly that the U.S. is now begging the UN and
other countries to help us. During this administration
so many environmental rules and regulations have
been weakened that it is inevitable that the environment
will be damaged severely.
Yet
you allow Dennis to come on your show and make
fun of other countries like Germany and France,
who were cautious and smart enough NOT to get
bogged down in Iraq. You have allowed him to make
fun of the lootings of the museums in Iraq. You
have allowed him to make fun of people who care
about the environment and are attempting to protect
our planet for future generations. You have allowed
him to demean one of the most distinguished members
of the Senate, Robert Byrd and the leader of the
Democrats in Congress, Nancy Pelosi. You have
allowed him to demean all of the Democratic candidates
who have served their country in ways Dennis would
never do. You have allowed Dennis to repeatedly
bash the Clintons, while shamelessly promoting
Arnold for Governor of California, whose record
as an adulterer would match or beat anything
Bill Clinton has ever done and whose long term
drug use has been admitted to. You have allowed
him to make fun of a huge deficit that threatens
future generations and has many noted economists
talking about deflation.
Dennis,
in his NeoCon persona, has been reduced to hurling
ad hominem attacks on everyone who doesn't goose-step
to the Bush Administration, overly simplistic,
totally meaningless utterances, and grossly misleading
and false statements like these:
1.
Calling all of the Democratic candidates for President
"empty-headed scrum."
2. Implying there is something evil about Sen.
Byrd because 50 years ago he was a KKK member,
while not mentioning anything about Arnold Schwarzenegger's
father being a Nazi storm trooper. He also called
Senator Byrd, "crazy."
3. Telling environmentalists to get out of the
trees and find a job.
4. Implying that we can manage our huge deficit
by not paying back the money, which shows a total
lack of understanding of even Econ. 101.
5. Saying that the planet looks real good to him
because he doesn't see as much litter on the roads
as if this should be THE measure of environmental
protection we should accept.
6. Telling everyone how effective our troops have
been in Iraq because they were able to kill suicide
bombers. Huh??
7. Joking about the looting of the museums in
Baghdad implying that priceless, historical artifacts
were just Pier One trinkets.
8. Calling Democratic minority leader, Nancy Pelosi,
"Stupid."
9. Reveling in the destruction and death going
on in Iraq during the war.
10. Supporting the grossly misguided recall going
on in California while distorting Gray Davis'
record as Governor and supporting someone as unprepared
and unqualified for the job as Ah....nold.
What's
worse Jay, is that you just sit there and laugh
with him while he says these things and never
call his moronic statements into question. Dennis
has been appearing on your program way too often
and much more frequently than any other guest
and without equal time to others whose views would
be contrary to his.
Dennis
is also a bald-faced liar. He has told reporters
that he doesn't lean one way or the other politically
yet everything he says on your program and others
is contrary to this and totally one-sided. Name
one thing he has ever said on your program during
the Bush Administration that was contrary to the
views and talking points of the far right wing
of the Republican Party? Or even would be opposite
to what Rush Limbaugh would say? Do you think
Dennis would be appearing on Fox with Hannity
and Colmes if he was "fair and balanced?"
So
listen up, Jay! I am urging all of our viewers
to take the topplebush.com pledge to boycott your
program every time Dennis Miller appears as a
guest as long as you continue to allow Dennis
to promote Bush and his agenda and bash the Democrats
every few weeks like this. While we here at topplebush.com
hate trying to limit free speech like this, you
leave us no choice. You are suppose to be an entertainment
program...not a place where the right wing can
foist their lies on your "Jaywalking IQ" audience.
I urge you to not allow Dennis to appear anymore
if he is primarily there to bash the Democrats
and sell the Bush agenda. I urge you to book other
entertainers with opposite political points of
view to appear on your program as frequently as
you have allowed Dennis to appear to make up for
this unfair bias.
Sincerely,
R.
J. Crane, Editor
