This isn’t George’s strongest set.  But to be fair, the events of September 11, 2001, did considerably change the vibe of the show (which Carlin does acknowledge).  Where his career highs are cynical perspectives with a bleeding heart, the majority of this are complaints that just come across as insults.  One bit on here that’s really great is the one where Carlin picks apart and revises The Ten Commandments.
