Hope this interview with Dennis Miller puts to rest the notion of him being a conservative of any kind. Supporting Bush in the WOT and in the battle for Iraq is fine. Other liberals like Jon Voight and Ron Silver have taken the same approach. They’re all patriots for that public stance.

On most issues, however, Miller remains a bleeding heart liberal of the first order. Miller filled in on Sean Hannity’s radio show several years back. He opened the show by telling the audience he would support even higher taxes to pay for an even bigger welfare state bureaucracy. And his support for homo rights, abortion on demand and gun control has nothing to do with conservatism.

Miller admits that he is still evolving, and his views are sounding to me more conservative/libertarian than classic welfare state liberal. He is tough to pigeonhole politically. I listen to his radio podcasts almost daily, and I think he has a reasoned position on just about any topic, even if I do not agree with him.

His stance on the War on Terror, and his support for President Bush, have been unwaverng. In fact, he thinks so highly of Bush's effectiveness since 9-11 that he makes note of it almost every day, and says that Bush will be remembered as a great president if that is all he ever did (keep us safe here after 9-11). Miller is also very respectful of the military and goes out of his way to thank every serviceperson or vet for his or her service.

He is uncommonly respectful to all callers, even the carzy ones.
