O’Reilly (pot) vs. Smear Merchants (kettle)

Share article:

Bill O’Reilly’s work and reputation well proceed me. So I needn’t go into too many details on the Number One Cable News Personality. At least not with the other excellent bloggists, like Maddox hot on the trail in his latest scholarly article entitled: “Bill O’Reilly is a big blubbering vagina”.

So just a quick note to mention that on tonight’s “Talking Points”, O’Reilly continued on his mad crusade as he totters ever closer to his emotional tipping point and the inevitable melt down to follow. He again railed against the “Smear Merchants on both the Right and the Left”. He said he was going to call them out, by name, from here on out since these sleazeballs are destroying our American Way of life. Or something to that effect.

Okay.

And then he went on to his first guest of the evening, “Fox News Analyst”, Dick Morris.

We report. You decide.

I sent Mr. O’Reilly an Email the other day, but it looks like this one won’t be making it onto the air (not “pithy” enough?). So I’ll post it here for you:

TO: OReilly@FoxNews.com
SUBJECT: Who’s Looking out for EVERYBODY ELSE?

Mr. O’Reilly – Your tirade against the “Smear Merchants” might have a bit more credibility to it, if you listed ALL of the flame throwers out there, instead of the ones that flamed only at you (Michael Moore and “Stuart Smalley”). When you add the original creators of Smear Merchandising like Rush, Hannity, Coulter, Ingraham, Savage etc., then we’ll be able to take your protestations a bit more seriously. Keep not spinning!

Any idea what the coming Fall of O’Reilly will be? Live boy? Dead girl? Married to his own mother? Keep those comments and email’s coming…but remember, keep ’em pithy.

    O’Reilly is about to have a "Rosie O’Donnell Moment" — an inward nervous breakdown by doing really angry, paranoid things. maybe he’ll even get a jazzy Flock O’ Seagulls haircut.

    hey douche bag, I hate bill o’reilly, he isnt as bright or as quick as people think he is. Like it or not I think he gets the better of people on his show by intimidation not by knowledge, however i watch his show and I look at websites like this now and then to reaffirm my belief in choosing not to vote or care about politics for that matter because both ends of the spectrum republican or democrate, left or right, you all just spin things your own way and its impossible to tell which one of you bastards is telling the truth! Niether one of you jackasses can take the high road so fuck you! signed the undecided. . . rather the unwilling voter!
    p.s. kiss my ass bitch!
