Bill O'Reilly Has A Serious Heart Condition
In his weekly column, Bill O'Reilly expresses his opposition to what he claims is Barack Obama's plan for "income redistribution". O'Reilly, fond of reminding people that he is very rich and also very generous, doesn't believe he should pay more taxes. He especially doesn't want his money spent on those nasty poor people. Here's how he put it.

"That means that people who drink gin all day long will be getting some of my hard-earned money. Folks who dropped out of school, who are too lazy to hold a job, and who smoke reefer 24/7 will all get some goodies in the mail from Uncle Barack and Aunt Nancy, funded by me and other rich folks."

O'Reilly has been using this "income distribution" theory as a campaign tool for quite some time spreading the notion that Democrats want to take the money from good people and give it away to people he thinks don't deserve it. However, BOR claims he makes sure his money goes to people he has decided deserve it.

"And then there's the accountability factor. Without being forced by the federal government, I give plenty of cash to folks who need a hand. But I check out the charities before the check goes in the mail. I make sure my donations go directly to people who, through no fault of their own, find themselves in difficult circumstances."

1. Well my family are some of those rich people
I pay taxes in two seperate countries and I'm ok with that.

O'Reilly needs to STFU and be grateful for what he has.

Not to mention completely out of touch with 95 percent of America.

"That means that people who drink gin all day long will be getting some of my hard-earned money."

Gin? Seriously? Poor people drink gin? I don't know any poor people who can afford gin.

Folks who dropped out of school, who are too lazy to hold a job, and who smoke reefer 24/7 will all get some goodies in the mail from Uncle Barack and Aunt Nancy, funded by me and other rich folks."

Dropouts? Druggies? Lazy? What about me? I have a 4-year college degree, a full-time, white-collar job and a second, part-time job waiting tables. I work 70 hours a week and yet I barely can make ends meet. FUCK YOU, O-Really.

5. The real problem is corporate welfare
Just today we bailed out Freddie Mac and Sallie Mae for their improvidence.

7. There's a little typo in your text:
Edited on Fri Jul-25-08 09:06 PM by jeff30997
"me and other rich folks." should be spelled: "me and other rich fools.". :)

I love this part: "I give plenty of cash to folks who need a hand." Yep.

That generous scumbag have a monthly 1$ charities budget so he can give a quarter to a

homeless person each week.

22. What you said.
He's a lying, crooked, hateful piece of shit.

Or have we forgotten that he cut off someone who lost family on 9/11 for disagreeing with Bill's Big Bag of Hot Air?

Man, I wish Al Franken had pushed O'Reilly into an apoplectic fit.

16. 'Redistribution of wealth'
Funny how it is SO BAD, unless it is the rich 'redistributing' wealth from middle class and poor citizens into their own pockets ....

THEN it is just fucking peachy ....

Much like when conservatives rail mightily against government, unless it is a government owned corporation from Dubai that wants to capture an US port operations contract: Then the conservatives are crawling all over themselves to hand over the sensitive operations of our own nation's ports, paying a 'government owned entity' to do what our own workers could and should do ....


Hypocritical assholes ....

18. How much money does he make?
he made 9 million in 2005, which means he's a little bitty fish in the pond he is swimming in. Poor Bill.

19. he's lying, people get welfare for a maximum of 5 years and only if you have kids
that's the federal law...you can get food stamps longer and child care and medicaid longer if you work.

If you don't work, 5 years is max (some states less than 5 years) AND YOU HAVE TO HAVE CHILDREN. The money really goes to children.

There is no federal program for ppl without kids

24. wait that quote is describing rich people
That means that people who drink gin all day long (W?) will be getting some of my hard-earned money. Folks who dropped out of school, (Dick Cheney?)who are too lazy to hold a job, (Jenna Bush?)and who smoke reefer 24/7 (Rush?) will all get some goodies in the mail from Uncle Barack and Aunt Nancy, funded by me and other rich folks.

28. His "hard-earned money"?
He thinks what he does is working hard? He gets paid huge sums of money to just sit there and spew invective off the top of his head and shout over the people he interviews. He basically gets paid to be an asshole, which does not appear to be hard for him to do. Nor does it appear to be work.

29. Crap, the old "Class Warfare" stuff the RW always uses...
Edited on Sun Jul-27-08 12:01 AM by rasputin1952
This is/was a favorite of Novak.

Truth of the matter is, this is Class Warfare. The neo-con agenda has ripped the Middle Class out, and created a new population of poor people.
