Lost in the criticism was O'Reilly's subtle stand for the dying Mo'teasah tribe
Just when you think those conservative types have no sense of irony or satire a master like Bill O'Reilly tries to slide one by us.

In the midst of O'Reilly generous allotment of time on his radio show to let Juan Williams cross-market his book about what black people show do and think to a white conservative audience Bill O got steered the conversation to a noble attempt at preserving a dying part of Americana. There was a time in which one did not have to ask for more tea, there was a dedicated workforce always at the ready, the famed tribe of the Mo'teasahs. They used to make up a full third of the "African American" (before there was such a thing) men that O'Reilly and his listeners would have been familiar with. It goes without out saying but this was BEFORE the coalition building works of Anita Baker were available to the mass public. That is whom O'Reilly was really standing up for ...and those who harkened back for those long lost days.

Next up Bill will go all blue collar and speak up for the members of the "Mom'back" tribe.

:sarcasm: <--- this piece is based on a horribly racist joke from back in the day about the three tribes of Africa--the "Mo'teasahs" (filled tea cups while wearing white gloves) the "Mom/back"s (they worked on loading docks) and a third that I gladly have forgotten.
