Bill O'Reilly is a frickin lunatic nutcase

[proud2BlibKansan]

I turned on the local station that plays his show to see if my friend would be on the air.

And Billo was on. He was talking about single mothers and how bad their kids are. He said it really isn't right to broadbrush a group of people and then he went on in the very next sentence and broadbrushed single mothers! Their kids are out of control, they need a father's discipline, they are home alone too much, they get into trouble too often, and on and on ad nauseum.

Then after the commercial he started talking about the Democrats and what they need to be doing and I had to turn it off. I was driving and was having trouble concentrating on the road.

I didn't have his show on for 5 minutes and I wanted to puke. How do people listen to that crap? :puke:

1. It's not even so much disagreeing with the politics, for me. It's the fact that dude is an ASSHOLE.

Rush too. Even if you agree with their selfish RW politics, doesn't the fact that they are obnoxious assholes, and MEAN, make their shows difficult if not impossible to watch or listen to?

Although I suppose the meanness and assholery are integral to the politics, so there you have it. :shrug:

2. HOw well behaved are kids of married guys who phone fuck their co-workers?

3. Send a tip to "Media Matters for America"...

...that he bashed single mothers on his radio show, with the date of the broadcast.

Maybe they will publicize his words.

Here is their email address for tips:

5. How did you do it?

How did you stand the sound of his voice long enough to hear all that?

O'Rly's voice and face cause the same spasmodic reaction that I have to _george and Darth Cheney and all other members of the BFEE -- hitting the off button!

7. It wasn't easy

I only lasted about 5 minutes.

9. You're a braver woman than I am!

As the single mother of two stellar, civic-minded young adults, who never got in trouble or gave me a minute's heartache, I thank you for the report from the front lines.

6. I stopped watching quite a while ago

This site documents the more egregious Faux News segments:

Also the Stephanie Miller Show is good for the comedic side of FN.

8. Hmmm... I was a single Mom for five years.

My son gets Good Citizenship Awards for behavior, always makes First Honors and the teachers fight to get him in their classroom.

Guess that broadbrush isn't broad enough, eh Orally?

10. He's out of his rabid ass mind

He really is becoming more and more mentally ill. I always like the part where these pundits say they are neither Demo or Repub and claim to be Independent. Where is the Fairness Doctrine when you need it? A billion a month going down the tubes for Iraq and he's bitching about single/divorced mothers. Blame the women for the problems of the country. It has nothing to do with the war-monger men in charge, I suppose. Bite me, BillO. Bite me.
