LOL O'Reilly is going to be PISSED. . .Ludacris is welcoming soldiers home
Edited on Thu Apr-22-04 01:46 PM by wndycty
I am watching CNN and Ludicris is at Fort Hood being interviewed about his performance that he will be giving to returning soldiers. A lot of our boys said they were listening to his music back in Iraq. . .O'Reilly must be PISSED. . .and I am laughing my ass off.

-snip-
The soldiers and their families will be treated Thursday to a daylong party at the Army post. Entertainers including Drew Carey, Jessica Simpson, Ludacris, Lynyrd Skynyrd and the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders are scheduled to perform at the homecoming gala, complete with tens of thousands of barbecue sandwiches to munch on.

1. Maybe O'Reilly will boycott the USO now . . . .
Can't have him associated with anyone or anything that supports Ludacris :).

7. So when he disses Ludacris
is O'Reilly dissing the soldiers? It's the reasoning of the loopy wingnuts. Let them live with it!

11. Yeah but how stupid was that question "are you patriotic?"
CNN "newsperson" asked Ludacris? (as to "why" he was performing for the troops)

What was the point of asking him such a question?

13. It does not really matter does it. . .

18. You Beat Me to It Again, wc -
As soon as I saw Ludacris on CNN I took pleasure in how O'REILLY would react. 'course since he's in total denial about himself, he just might claim credit in one spin or another, saying that BECAUSE OF HIM pointing out Ludacris' impact, Ludacris decided to channel in a positive way or some crap. But has chickenhawk O'REILLY ever greeted returning troops? Has chickenhawk O'REILLY ever gone to any of the funerals? Why does the VFW give O'REILLY awards? Just asking.

22. Oh, Yes, Saw a Pic of Him at a VFW Appearance
Edited on Fri Apr-23-04 09:09 AM by UTUSN
being handed a certificate, smiles and handshakes all around. Something for being "a good American" or "an OUTSTANDING AMERICAN" or "being the FLOWER of Americanism" or "the epitome of EVOLUTIONARY American, uh, 'Creationist'".

You know the tune: Among our broad-brush comrades, it's the external trappings of "patriotism" that counts, not the inner meaning. So, the VFW, many of whose members revile a fellow vet like KERRY, bend right over to kiss chickenhawk ass. I wouldn't doubt that they have similarly "honored" HANNITY. For sure, Shrub, despite that what the VFW members fought for was supposedly democracy and for "brothers". They prefer an AWOL "brother" than a real one. They would LOVE to kiss LIMBOsevic's pinodial cyst if they haven't already, on the grounds that he SOUNDS kick-ass "for 'Murica".

And I understand. You know, if we want somebody to go put their lives on the primordial line, they can't be Hamlet stewing, they need to be more, uh, physical.

....Whoops. Sorry for the early rant. Did my walking early and apparently it's having tangible results.

25. Here's One Pic of O'REILLY with the VFW Award


*******QUOTE*******

http://www.vfw.org/news/2002mediaaward2.htm

Kansas City, MO., March 4, 2002)—The Veterans of Foreign Wars has named author, producer and TV anchor Bill O’Reilly as recipient of the 2002 VFW News Media Award. O’Reilly topped the list of nominees for “…better understanding of the American way of life and its institutions and interests by honest and forthright reporting.”

Mr. O’Reilly was presented the award on February 26 by VFW National Commander-in-Chief James N. Goldsmith during the organization's National Legislative Conference, held at the Hyatt Regency, Capitol Hill. ....

Subject: Thanks & send me a picture of your VFW award

Mr. Oreilly... Thank you for using your "bully" pulpit on behalf of veterans... Please find out which of our Congressmen...who say they support veterans and military issues.... blocked the funding of Concurrent Receipt for Disabled Military Retirees... they are all hiding behind closed doors... they passed it, but wouldn't fund it. Who? Why?

Congratulations on your award from the VFW. I have devoted an average of 4 hours a day to veteran issues for about 5 years on the web... putting out news and issues, answering questions, etc I get around 200 emails a day... but I an just one guy... no organization or pay, I do it for the occasional email I get from a veteran or widow expressing a heart felt thanks for some help or info I provided.
Please send me a picture of your award... I would like to see what one looks like.. I have never received any recognition, from any veteran's organization... Legion, AMVETS, DAV, VFW, MOPH, ROA, TROA, NGAUS, TREA, NAUS, VA ...on..and on... too numerous to list them all.
Bill... just say hello to "ColonelDan" or your show just to let us know that you read some of your emails

By Bill O'Reilly


Hi, I'm Bill O'Reilly. Thanks for watching us tonight.

Well, it's been a very busy day. The University of California at Los Angeles has been trying to prevent us from doing a story on the protest there against First Lady Laura Bush. How foolish of them. We'll have that report coming up.

And this morning I received a journalism award from the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Washington. And I got to thinking about vets and human rights. And that's the subject of this evening's "Talking Points" memo. ....

26. The Lesson for Us Dems about the White-Male Vote Is
that what it takes is TALK. TALK and BLUSTER ------about SURFACE patriotism, the TRAPPINGS of EXTERNAL 'Murica, and TOUGH TALK. That would be T-A-L-K, as opposed to action and practices. Just TALK. The way Shrub, LIMBOsevic, HANNITY, Oliver NORTH, O'REILLY, and all the Faux-Friends-in-the-Morning TALK.
