O'Reilly: "I don't want to go on a lynching party against Michelle Obama unless there's evidence, hard facts, that say this is how the woman really feels"

Summary: In a discussion of recent comments made by Michelle Obama, Bill O'Reilly took a call from a listener who stated that, according to "a friend who had knowledge of her," Obama " 'is a very angry,' her word was 'militant woman.' " O'Reilly later stated: "I don't want to go on a lynching party against Michelle Obama unless there's evidence, hard facts, that say this is how the woman really feels. If that's how she really feels -- that America is a bad country or a flawed nation, whatever -- then that's legit. We'll track it down."

He's an attention starved thug.

4. "Lynching party"?!

What, he couldn't have said "vendetta" or something a bit less, you know, racially charged? 'Specially now that he's seen people eating at Sylvia's with knives 'n' forks 'n' stuff. :sarcasm:

5. Yeah, he could have picked a better word than lynching.

But he does like to push buttons, and what better way to do so than use racially charged language?
