Bill O'Reilly: Scumbag

Hendrik Hertzberg describes his recent experience of being targeted by Fox News's Finest.

Man, I hate that O'Reilly clown. Even watching short clips of him that are posted to illustrate what an lying asswipe he is, whose sole purpose is to be a water-carrying tool for the likes of Newt Gingrich, so that I'm prepared for what I'm about to see, is almost more than I can take.

[Added 2008-12-11 01:33] HH has a follow-up post on the matter.

I thought HH handled himself pretty well. Some people just crumple when confronted by O'Reilly's clown squad. Keith Olbermann has good advice for these situations: You can render the video useless to O'Reilly by simply responding to every question with comments about loofahs, falafal, and Andrea Mackris. :D

LOL @ KO. Maybe if HH had had his coffee, he'd have remembered that. But as he said, he didn't know who O'Reilly's pool boy was at the start of being sandbagged, and he does like to talk to people on the street.

Next time.

I still cannot get over how angry I am about this. As I am every time I read a story about O'Reilly.

Oh, I didn't realize he didn't know where the pool boy was from. (I have actually read the HH yet, but I'm looking forward to it.)

I've always loved HH. He looks like a pretty cool guy, too.

I thought it was hilarious how Fathead said "And that tells you everything you need to know about The New Yorker magazine."

It's also just hilarious how O'Reilly includes "boycotts called on restaurants" as part of his proof that "it's really getting out of control out there!"

*Gasp!* No! Not boycotts of restaurants!!!" (Hitchcock shower scene music)

Yeah, the social order is really flying apart when gay people don't eat at Cracker Barrel.

ROFL!

I've been boycotting Cracker Barrel for years, not that I really have that many occasions to consider eating on one. They had a bad problem with black customers, last I heard. If teh gheys are piling on the fascist boycott bandwagon, too, I guess we're doomed. We might just as well surrender to the Taliban tomorrow.

Hey, wait, I thought we *were* the Taliban!!!

*scratches head*

BTW: I've decided that I'm going to start posting as Verso. I started out posting as Twin, way back when, so you'd know I was that annoying asshole from the BHTV forum. But now that I've established my identity, I might as well use the Verso profile so that I can delete my own comments if I make egregious errors.

(LOL: "If.")

bjkeefe said...

Outing yourself with a new pseudonym?

;^)

Should I refer to you as Verso in the posts from now on?

Unknown said...

Um, gosh, I don't know. Maybe I should start a new profile. Or wait, maybe I could change my display name from Verso to Twin. Hmm... Cuz I don't really particularly like the name "Verso."

In fact, I kind of don't like it.

Life is just so full of agonizing challenges.

Unknown said...

Woo!

bjkeefe said...

Hee-hee!

Okay, Twin you shall remain until I hear differently.
