3. I don't either.
However, following the statements of some people is inducing severe whiplash.

5. Bill's only a rampaging asshole 99.99% of the time
The rest of the time, he's not so bad.

6. First Glenn Beck argues for using miranda on the NY bomber guy, now O'Reilley
making the case about corporate responsibility.

I think my head just exploded.

9. We have officially entered some bizarro world
WTF!?

O'Reilly can be surprisingly sensible 1% of the time. But Beck? That's a real sign of end times!

7. Actually, he supports BP being personally responsible for their actions...
Edited on Wed May-05-10 02:24 PM by Ozymanithrax
This is the first time I've ever heard of him actually insisting that a company live up to the Republican Conservative ideal of personal responsibility. I am sure that he sill come to his senses and say he never said that.

8. The point is to voice the concern, their actual opinion doesn't matter
Faux generates fake news stories then pushes them into the MSM via negating the story all the time. It is a common technique of theirs. Thus they do a bunch of segments about should Obama have done more? Regardless if they fall on the side of yes or no the the question the viewer leaves with the idea that we should be questioning if Obama caused the oil spill to be worse than it would have been.

11. All it means is that wingnuts are temporarily too crazy even for Fox
Don't worry, Billo will soon be singing a different tune, and we'll get to hear all about how President Obama should have flown to the Gulf and frozen the leaking well head solid with his icy mist breath.

15. Between his comments and GLENN BECK'S comments this week (so far)
The wingnuts are just not having a particularly good week IMHO. I'm sure that O'Reilly and Beck will be back to form sooner rather than later but I'm loving this.
:rofl:
