ONE OF THE MOST-OFTEN-WRITTEN RULES of online discussions that you know a discussion board/newsgroup/chat room’s become useless once the guys in it start calling one another Nazis.

This is essentially what a P-I freelancer did in a scathing review of Dennis Miller’s current touring comedy act.

It’s too bad the reviewer stooped so low. The once-creative Miller’s current routine, all full of pro-war blather and the kind of aggressively bigoted “attitude” found in the worst “morning zoo” radio talk hosts, could have easily been effectively denounced without such a tactic. After all, if you’re complaining about Miller’s cheap shots and name-calling, it’s not wise to resort to cheap shots and name-calling yourself.
