Bill O'Reilly's history lesson. My people came from County Cavan in Ireland. All right? And the British Crown marched in there with their henchman, Oliver Cromwell, and...
I don't really understand how O'Reilly has his job. He is dishonest to his core -- been caught in numerous, unabashed lies. He is ignorant in a major way -- he often shows that he doesn't know anything at all about matters in which he has really strong opinions. He is a rude, caustic SOB. He was caught in a sexual harassment scandal.
And yet, he has a job. Why? There are probably any of million conservatives (or whatever the hell it is Fox thinks he is) that would be so much better. Why would they keep that boob on the air?
in a stunning validation of reality today, bill o'reilly spoke as if he were a douchebag! my god, what next? the sun rising in the east? water proving to be wet? sky appearing blue? fenriq galled by religion?
