O'Reilly is (Not) Going to Kick Your Ass!
This O'Reilly one is really losing it.
Calling down the wrath of Al Queda upon the lovely city of San Francisco, O'Reilly says that "we won't do anything" in case the city is attacked by Al Queda, responding to an initiative passed in the city to bar recruitment in high schools and on college campuses. Apparently, Fox News' most famous spinmeister is now in charge of the American military.
During the course of his argument with Todd Chretien, who authored the proposition, it becomes clear that O'Reilly hasn't even read the proposition, and apparently has no idea that it was initiated in response to the war in Iraq. This it no surprising.
Finally, Chretien invites him to come to San Francisco to debate the proposition in a 60-minute mediated debate. O'Reilly promises he would "kick [Chretien's] butt up and down the street..." and then refuses the offer to join in the debate, most likely spooked by the idea that a "neutral" facilitator would be running it.
ASSuredly, what O'Reilly was ACTUALLY offering is to just come and kick the guy's butt in a street brawl, and I'd put odds on O'Reilly to win that one. O'Reilly, in fact, with his imposing physical stature, belongs more in the ring of the WWF, and not a commentator on television, struggling to make coherent political arguments against intellectual superiors. Fortunately for him, he has the power to cut people off when they are in danger of exposing his flabby reasoning. Probably the smartest thing O'Reilly does is avoid putting himself in a position where he might actually have to go mano-a-mano in an actual debate -- a favored tactic of the Bush administration -- and one that clearly works for Bill. The old finger on the off-button is a time-honored "debate" tactic, and a much easier way to avoid sticky issues brought up by logic and facts. But, despite all the bluster -- is O'Reilly, in fact, a PUSSY when the chips are down? Indications are...
Really, O'Reilly actually belongs at the end of an Irish bar, menacing other patrons for eating too many of the snacks. That's where we might find him in a few years, when he finally comes to grips with the fact that he doesn't control the military and can't withold American forces at will. A stale-smelling dive bar is the best place for "I'm right, you're wrong" arguments unsupported by research or facts.
It seems bizarre that this commentator who likes to fly American imagery all over his show would call for a terrorist attack on an American city. It seems, like, what's that word that ranter-in-arms Anne Coulter likes to use? Oh yes -- "treason". I guess treason is in the eye of the beholder. Some would call it irresponsible. Others would call it "satirical." Either way, calling for O'Reilly's head is a non-starter. His rating are too high and the Fox crowd loves him.
Anyway, we're all hoping to be included on O'Reilly's shit list of left-wing blogs that he promised. I'd be in good company and could use the traffic. Is there a submission form? And what does it take to get on there?
Let me try again: O'Reilly -- you're a pussy.
