The guest was NSNBC liberal Eric Alterman."You look so pissed off," said Mr. Miller. "What do you mean, I look pissed off" asked Mr. Alterman. "I don’t even know what to say. You’re looking at me like—you’re just sitting there." Mr. Miller did an impersonation of what looked like a drunken, mentally disabled guy passing out.
