SHUT UP! You're a BAD GUY, Timmy! I'm calling on all my listeners to boycott Timmy Andrews, age eight, Ms. Krell's homeroom.

Hope this helps, your bad touch uncle Bill.

4. Oh, he'll probably be more popular now...
Like Bill Bennett and his Book of Virtues. Yep a guy who has blown 10 million bucks in Vegas will give you moral guidance on how to live a righteous life! He is still freaking a guest commentator on CNN, et al.

I hate America because of this shit!

8. O'Reilly: "If I have to suffer, that's the way it has to be"
Great. Now he's a martyr on top of being a falafel pervert.

"I knew I was going to get vilified and vile stuff was going to be put out there," O'Reilly said in a telephone interview. "It's very embarrassing to have this stuff out there. Any human being would be depressed to see this. . . . This is the worst day of my life. . . . I have to protect the people closest to me. If I have to suffer, that's the way it has to be."

O'Reilly said he could not, on his lawyer's advice, address producer Andrea Mackris's accusations that he subjected her to graphic phone-sex chats -- a tactic that her attorney, Benedict Morelli, seized upon.

"Guys like O'Reilly who like to espouse what right-wing Republicans espouse about family values shouldn't be doing stuff like this," he said, adding: "The man knows he did it. He finally got it through his thick skull that he did it, and he's not going to get away with it. . . . He's going down."

Although attorneys, publicists and media critics differ on whether O'Reilly is handling the accusations wisely, there is one point of agreement: The nation's most popular cable news host, who often lectures guests on morality and recently wrote a book of advice for children, could be badly tarnished if the allegations are proved.
