The O'Reilly Fatuity: The War on Christmas has morphed into the War on Christians

Having declared victory in his battle to save Christmas, Bill O'Reilly has decided to direct his "Culture Warrior" bravery to saving Christians. Laura Ingraham (whom, we must remember, got this gig because even Malkin couldn't stomach it any longer) is brought on to agree with Bill that the left and the media are out to get them. The trigger of this insane rant? This op-ed column in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer which points out some of Mike Huckabee's more regressive statements. Funnily enough, as Newshounds points out, after blaming the left and the media for attacking Huckabee for being a Christian, O'Reilly went ahead and attacked Huckabee himself. Hypocrite much, Bill? Oh...wait, look who I'm talking about. My bad.
BOR: It's not just the Democrats against the Republicans this year, Laura. And I think you understand that.
LI: Sure.
BOR: It's the Democrats AND the media against the Republicans. And the media is its own entity. It doesn't confer with the Democrats. They're not like calling each other up. The media is made to say, "Okay how can we destroy whoever we have to destroy, where can we go, what is their vulnerability?" And right now, their vulnerability is 'make them all out to be religious nuts' and that's what they're doing.
Actually, Bill, with you as their spokesman, I don't think the left or the media has to do very much to bring out the nuttiness.
FRIST!!!!
Love it. Whining little Christofascists complaining they're the ones getting shot at. Boo hoo. If you are so opressed, then WHY are you on national television, spewing your bile?
Just saying.
If chrisitians want to stop being laughed at they shouldn't be so funny. Virgin births, war on christmas, boycotting movies, getting congress to pay homage to them, etc etc etc.
Hey BillO there's more coming. Get used to it.
It gets to a point where the line from being obnoxiously bias crosses into the realm of spreading complete and utter mis information to the masses. I would love to know if O'Reilly truly believes what he is saying, or just playing the role he's there to play. It would seem that someone with any formal education, even at the most basic levels would find it hard to really believe a statement a long the lines of "It’s the Democrats AND the media against the Republicans. And the media is its own entity. It doesn’t confer with the Democrats. They’re not like calling each other up. The media is made to say, “Okay how can we destroy whoever we have to destroy, where can we go, what is their vulnerability?” And right now, their vulnerability is ‘make them all out to be religious nuts’ and that’s what they’re doing.
Either way it is becoming so bad over on Fox between this idiot, and the 'prince of everything that's wrong with America', Sean Hannity that I do not even watch anymore. It used to provide a comic relief and reminder of why in fact I am a progressive liberal - now its just painfully annoying.

Can you say DEMOGOGUERY?? Have these people no shame??
How much longer do we have to live through this insanity. Damn.
Shut it Bill,you yammering Dumb bell.
He's a bullying sexual harasser who doesn't mind telling female coworkers he wants to shower with them, to get their nipples hard and rub their pussy with the 'little falafel thing' (read: loofah mitt. I guess he was so excited spanking the money, he forgot). And that they have really really really big 'boobs' :roll:
The Bill O’Reilly Opera - Mackris v O’Reilly
I will always keep that in mind, in a baroque operatic kind of way. So who is this dipfuck, that he can pass judgment on others?
If we just ignore them, they'll go away. We are guilty of empowering O'Rieley, Hannity, Limbaugh, Coulter, etc by letting what they say get under our skin. They will turn out to be their own worst enemies and ultimately self-destruct but we have to stop giving them any attention at all. I will continue to see what they have to say but they no longer have the power to upset me - I now look at them as the sad, pathetic people they have always been.
Patty @ 5:
It's Demagoguery. Kindly spell stuff right if you're gonna give a well-deserved insult. Otherwise, you just pulled a Bildo.
This Graph Says it all, The christians are being beat-up by the ???
I think the graph is hillarious ... but accrurate.
I really am sorry that an Australian "fuck knuckle" (Rupert) is destroying your country.
Big C&L fan.
But why so much O'Reilly on this web site?
Are we really going to learn anything new by watching this idiot?
I download everything posted to this web site but have stopped the O'Reilly videos. I can't believe that this guy's show has high viewership. Our poor nation is sinking under the weight of the increasing number of morons that have a taste for this type of crap.
Its everyone against BillO and Faux films his rants about it. That's pretty much it.
Bill O'Falafel,
You're nuts whether religious or not. Adopting a nutty religious-right belief and persecution attitude doesn't take that away from you.
Sorry.
What was the conditions of his victory in the war on christmas? I still hear happy holiday and still see seasons greetings all over the place. No Merry Christmas signs in stores. Invent your fake war then declare yourself the winner of the fake war. Congrats. You get a fake Trophy for everyone to...well they can't really see it because its an imaginary, but you can tell everyone how wonderful and elegant it looks. The factless factor at it again. 90% of the country is christian, the other 10% (me) doesn't have the pull in this country to oppress christians. Just saying. Not that I would or anything, well only to those more vocal hypocritical Evangelicals.
my favorite quote: "they should be denounced. c'mon, it's Christmas" as if that is what Christmas is all about...denouncing people. i can't believe O'Reilly still has a TV show after his sexual harrassment debacle, let alone that people pay attention to anything he has to say. ever notice how he always wants to talk about sexual issues? he's like an arsonist who likes to hangout around fires that he starts.
O'Reilly won the "War On Christmas" like he won the "Boycott France Into Bankrupty" escapade.
Walter Mitty has nothing on this guy.
This is scary stuff. Its only a matter of time before they start labeling some of us terrorists or domestic enemies
I know the writers are on strike but please. Put old clips of The Daily Show or something on. I can't watch Billo. You don't have to convince me that he's crazy.
How about what Huckabee is saying now:

The Kool-Aid wasn't enough...
Thing Fish @ 21:
I wouldn't worry much about The Huckster. I think it would be great to see him get the nominations.
Paranoid much, Bill-O?
Just curious, Bill -- what does Jesus tell you about sexual harassment?
And I am also a bit curious how well you've done in converting ole Rupert to the joys of your faith, Bill-O. Or does he agree that it doesn't matter, so long as you whip the backwoods people into another voting frenzy?
Imagine if you were a Jewish store owner and a group of these idiots told you that they wanted you to take down your "Happy Holidays" sign and replace it with a "Merry Christmas" sign. And if they don't, they'll paint stars of David on your storefront to let other idiots know not to shop there.
Fundamentalist: "My religion is being oppressed! We are few! We are being persecuted!!"
Regular Person: "I'm not oppressing you! I just don't want your religion crammed down my throat and-"
Fundamentalist: "Tough! We're the majority! That means we get to oppress your view!"
BOR: It’s the Democrats AND the media against the Republicans.
No, it's Republicans like BOR and the FOX News media against the Democrats. Proof? Anyone catch BOR's hit job on Hillary because of Gavin Newsom campaigning with her the other day? He and FOX News were doing the bidding of the RNC and their anti-Hillary news release. When's the last time BOR did the bidding of the DNC with regards to the Republican candidates? Never. He defends Republicans against what the DNC says. BOR is just another right wing tool.
Hey Bill. Know why that Muslim saved those Jews on the subway? It's God's way of saying STFU.
Listener @ 11:
That is hilarious, it's going into permanent archive, I might have to print up a bunch and post them all over town. Maybe change the colors to nice holiday ones.
I'm a Christian...or at least, I've read and studied the Christ message extensively and know for a fact that Jesus was the most LIBERAL Jew of his age.
And just as Jesus, the LIBERAL Jew, had a little problem with orthodox religious extremists back then, I have a little problem with orthodox religious extremists of today. And it doesn't matter to me what religious sect these orthodox extremists belong to, primarily because they all share the same rigid, righteous, death-penalty-worshipping mindset. They all believe that they know "the truth," which they then proceed to try to ram down the throats of everyone else...like Osama bin Laden ordered his crazed religious fundamentalist followers to ram passenger-filled airplanes into buildings in the United States on 9/11.
Mercy? That's for the weak, in the religious fundamentalists' view. Forgiveness? That's for the weak, too. Democracy? That's another concept that's alien to hardcore, religious fundamentalist, authoritarian orthodox types...even though, if born into a democracy, they will use every means possible to twist and pervert a democracy into some brand of hell-bound, hell-bent conservative theocracy.
So what would Jesus do today and whom would he stand beside? The righteous, religious fundamenatlist Republicans (and even some righteous, religious fundamentalist Democrats), no matter what faith? Hardly. The super-righteous, hyper-religious al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden? Fat chance.
Jesus would stand side by side with Sheehan and the anti-war protestors. Jesus would stand on the picket line with members of the WGA. Jesus would stand in front of abortion clinics and family planning centers, not to protest their existence, but to protect the women seeking assistance inside as well as the brave souls working inside. Jesus would stand with American workers against the blindingly greedy corporatists. Jesus would stand with the poor and against permanent tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. Jesus would visit those imprisoned and talk about God's eternal love and mercy and forgiveness, not about eternal punishment and damnation (like the rabid, right-wing, religious fundamentalists tend to do).
In other words, if Jesus Christ were to return today (as some right-wing Rapturists hope and pray for), Jesus Christ would join the progressive, liberal Democrat Party, and turn his back on the Republicans and their greedmeisters, telling them "Get thee behind me Satan!!!" Simple. Straightforward. And, of course, Jesus Christ would find himself facing today the same hardcore, religiously-rigid mindset that he faced, and triumphed over, two thousand years ago. But wait, they killed him (or had him killed), didn't they? Yes, they killed his body, but hardcore, religious fundamentalist types can NEVER kill the Spirit, nor the Liberal message that Jesus Christ spoke about and demonstrated so long ago, because the Liberal message of hope, love, peace, forgiveness and sharing is eternal, while the conservative message of selfishness, greed, fear and death will only end up in some unmarked grave somewhere.

Of course, Bill and Laura aren't themselves part of "the media" despite the fact that they're hosted on a major cable news network and both have nationally syndicated radio talkshows.
BILL O REILLY = BUSH ADMIN= SICK SOBS = HYPOCRITES=LIARS=ETC ETC

kings+queens @ 31:
That reminds me, Ernest Borgnine is still alive.
I love this site, but cannot fathom why it keeps giving 'air time' to Jerkweed. How many times do we need to be shown evidence that he is a total fruitcake, is against/for virtually everything the readers here are for/against? I understand he is an easy target and a good news 'filler'. Yet, would we not be better off by completely ignoring him? This person lives for the 'confrontation'. He is a bully and used to intimidation. Every time we expose his insanity, he gathers favor from the extreme right for being their spokesman. If we just ignore him, eventually he will vanish like a fart in a tornado. Let's shut this idiot up.
I can see where you might want to avoid talking about poor Hillary (vast right-wing conspiracy, don't cha know)
What about Senator Barack Obama?
The entire internet is focused on three people: Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama
Why are you talking about Bill O' Reilly?
Better head on over to DailyKos
I have two monkeys who come to my porch every evening here in Laos and polish off whats left of my potato chips and nuts and wine.
After tonight I am naming them Laura and Bill-o. Appropriate too, they fling crap every once in a while if they get excited
The Oracle @ 29:
Nice post Oracle! I have realized for a long time that the christian fascists are not mainstream Christians. However, I think it is important for the traditional Christian brethren to stand tall in the fight to exorcize the followers of Robertson, Dobbs, Fallwell, etc. What I see happening is a knee-jerk reaction against all Christians, and that is not right.
wait a minute, a couple of nights ago he said the fucking war was over (he won), now this?
MacDaKnife@36 I totally agree. This big ugly drama queen creates bogus issues out of nothing to stir up his very ignorant following. I understand we should pay attention to this clown, but he doesn't deserve this much air play.
O[Quit spamming the threads with the same off topic message. Thank you-Sitemonitor]
Thomas Stone @ 13:
Half the people who watch him are watching the pinhead for comedy hour, and know he is not to be taken seriously.
I agree C&L should cut back on Falafel King, if anything because he is BORing.
The Oracle @ 29:
As would our terroristic, radical, deist Founders.....
Bill Clinton and Barack Obama
This will be the battle, ladies and gentlemen.
Two alpha dogs are getting ready for the Battle of the 21st century.
One will float like a butter fly, sting like a bee.
One will show the world what the word Ruthless means.
Get the popcorn ready. This is gonna' rock the house!
jwazzz @ 9:
I must respectfully disagree. There are indeed many pernicious voices who would indeed whither upon being ignored. But they are voices who really don't have a large, influential following in the first place. For instance, many years ago, an unknown video game company wanted to market a Holocaust game where the players adopted the role of the Nazis, and killed Jews for points. Barely anyone had heard of this company or its game, and the activist groups who discovered it very wisely decided to ignore it. The controversy would have made it a success. The silent treatment caused it to evaporate.
But O'Really? is a widely watched, influential propagandist supported by powerful interests, and garners a lot of attention on his own. He does not need loud, angry detractors to popularize him; there are people with a lot of power and money who will make sure that his lies are spread as far as they can get them, and there must be a response.
I'm all for not letting him get under your skin as you sit at home, but to ignore him would be a mistake. It would be to allow his propaganda to fester, and to blind ourselves to his actual influence.
Thomas Stone @ 13:
Sites that persistently cover O'Really?'s inexhaustible avalanche of bullshit serve a far greater purpose than merely pointing him out: They document everything he says, and elicit a corrective response from people all over the world. FUX News has no problem editing their material and claiming that they never said what they clearly said. Keeping a real time record of its lies and propaganda is essential to combating it, and for posterity. When historians study this era, and philosophers of government seek to avoid its follies, they will laud sites like C&L and Media Matters.
C&L:
I’ve never seen Fox News on TV, but aren’t there commercials around that show?
If so, why not make a list of these companies, and post it next to each of these downloadable clips?
At least then we can get the whole picture, and are fighting back..
Christians? Hell, I could throw a punch blindfolded in a crowed bar on a Friday night anywhere in America and hit a better Christian than either Huckabee or O'Rilley.
Greg @ 22:
All due respect, I had friends tell me the same thing about George W. Bush in 2000.
Merry FUCKING Christmas, Bill.
Laura Ingram is just one more of Bill Oreilly's shills, brought on too agree with him, lend credibility too his right wing republican taling points/propaganda. She has her own axe too grind with liberals since a very well known liberal female anchor stole her man and no doubt she hates all liberals with a passion. But she is a childless, frigid, woman whose only goal in life is too spread the hatemongering right wing agenda, and she is good at what she does, just like her ugly sister Ann Coulter, and their asian counter part Michelle Malkin....., guess when everyone realized Michelle Malkin was a anchor baby for her Philippino parents her denigrating the hispanic anchor babies seemed like the pot calling the kettle black....
If she paid for that facelift, she was taken to the cleaners.
The only war on Christmas is in Bill O'Really's imagination!
O'Lielly's innane comments aside, Huckabee and the republican party draw any fire that they get on this topic. Once you run a candidate on the christian platform, you open yourself up for any and all political attacks on that platform. If O'Lielly was so concerned about christians and christianity, he would encourage them not to drag their religion into the brawl. Yes. Regligion. Not faith. Religion. Let's call it what it is, shall we????????
Karen @ 46:
Not to mention that it's just fucking hilarious.
SO FUNNY!!! Check out the O'Reilly/Mackris opera on Crooks and liars. Why, Thankya, Miss Kitty! Please, Please, I hope Dildo sees this, or gets wind of this.
He can't, and certainly Dosen't WANT to talk about it,due to l
legal stipulations, but he will internalize the anger, and the meltdown continues.
2008 is gonna be one wild, crazy, brutal year.SHEESH.
Best wishes to all,and to those who are internet friends on Newshounds,who also post here.
Really like C+L. Keep up the great work,Guys and Gals.
All the best to you all, and Happy Holidays.
Dnurse
Ingram looks like Joan Rivers in that mask. That's her real face?
OMG. I just realized he's drunk. But he's like the high-functioning drunk at an NYC Irish bar (a venue I'm quite familiar with) he is good at covering about 50% of the time. But he's slurring and he's fucking dring!
Laura is being her usual sober dim-witted self. "Im-prim-A-ter" is a church lady's pronunciation of imprimatur. Stupid priggish spinster-type!
BillO now thinks the democrats and the media aren't in cahoots? Perhaps he's softening in his senility...
"independent" billo once again using the RNC talking points. People are losing their homes and all billo cares about are big box store employees saying Merry Christmas
he just described himself.
"They're all Pagans!"
WTF?
"The media"?
Bill you are part of the media you lunatic!
Torture
White Privilege
Gansta Rap
Who are the Barbarians?
Cognitive dissonance
Let's talk about Bill O'Reilly
That mirror is too painful
Laura Ingraham is just about the meanest person on television. Sean and Ann and Rush and Michael Savage all together don't have the brains or the sheer hatred for the left that resides in Laura Ingraham. She beat cancer because she's meaner than cancer.
.
F U N N Y
Isn't Bill O'Liely part of that Big-Bad Media that he's afraid of?
.
Billy, Billy, Billy, Billy.... I keep waiting for your head to implode from the powerful vacuum between your ears. Your ego and the hot air that comes out of your mouth must counteract your lack of brains. I know it is impossible for you to repent when you are making $9 million a year from Fox "News". That kind of money gets in the way of mental flexibility. Have you changed your mind about Sean Hornbeck wanting to be kidnapped and molested in 5th grade or no flexibility for that change either? How about your stance on creepy phone calls to interns? You regret? Oh, that's right. You lost a lot of money on that one didn't you Billy. So sad.
Feed them both to the lions for our amusement. Bwahahahahahha!!!
damnit, this demagorgery and misinformation is keeping social conservatives who are liberal on fiscal issues from voting democratic.
First thing, the Malkin was fired, it didn't quit. The Malkin would do ANYTHING for money and attention. Second, Laura and Denise both love to suckle at the teet of BlathO. They both wait until BlathO opens the segment by saying "Now, you agree with me don't you that bla bla bla". You can replace blah blah blah with any moronic mindless crap that comes to mind. Like, remember when that crazy ultra-left wing Jim McDermott went to Iraq and said the preznit is lying? Oh, that was true, chimpy was lying. Hmmm. Well, ignore that part. Just remember that White Rich Conservative Chri$tians are the most persecuted people on the planet. EVERYONE is out to get them. And if we just let them rule the world like they should, then everything would be perfect. I haven't heard anything THAT delusional since the last time I listened to a BlathO clip.
Look! It's a genuine walking, talking, ignorant POS!!
Not only does it walk and talk, it has sex with falafals!
It likes really large mammary glands!
It likes lewd phone sex while it uses sex toys!
If you think the things it says now are stupid, you should read the transcript from the lawsuit!
And it has a lot less money than it did before it got in trouble for all of the above!

i don't get it. why doesn't billy just come out of the closet and get it over with?
I like that acronym, but if you think about it, it should be B'O're.

I can't watch, ...of course. I did like the time he went on Letterman and took his "Culture Warrior" sword and shield, and Dave gave him a hard time for bringing toys. (I think he called him a moron --or something similar-- too?)
I don't hate Christians, just the ones like him, on TV, that rag on and on and on and on and on and on and on about how hard done by they are. Snap out of it: life can be tough: grow up, ya moron.
Bad hair day for bor's whore. News is really not a part of the propaganda network any longer. Do they still say "fair and balanced", or do their sheep even fall for that bullshit any longer?
This guy is to christianity what demons are to angels not even in the same playing field.
Christians are human filth, they should have war declared on them. If only it were true.
Well it's about time somebody declared war on the Christians. They have been declaring war on blacks, women and gays in this country since the 1950's.
The Romans declared war on the Christians by throwing them to the lions. I don't think we should go quite that far. I would be satisfied with a constitutional amendment banning Christian marriage and banning them from military service.
Yeah. The media hasn't gone after Hillary much have they? What the hell is he talking about? That's all Chris Matthews , Fox, MSNBC, CNN, HATE RADIO can seem to talk about. Hillarys' cackle, Hillarys' calcuations, Hillarys' evil husband Bill....yack yack yackle......
I'm with osamabinforgotten. The Laura Ingraham quote that stuck out was "They should be denounced by the other Democrats in Congress, c'mon, its Christmas."
Bill O'Reilly and Laura Ingraham have started a new holiday tradition - the denouncing of people at Christmas. So, in keeping in the spirit of this new tradition, I would like to denounce Bill O'Reilly and Laura Ingraham. They claim to be defending Christianity and Christmas but, in fact, they are closet Festivusians. It is well known that a common practice of those who celebrate Festivus is the "Airing of Grievances", in which each person tells everyone else all the ways they've disappointed him/her over the past year.
From the Evangelical Christian perspective, Christ prophesied that his true followers would be persecuted for their beliefs. Since this isn't actually happening in any meaningful way in the West, Fundamental Christians have to make up some form of persecution to justify their belief that they are Christ's true followers. It becomes a sick, self-fulfilling prophecy. For instance, if a fundamental Christian spews hateful, intolerant and ignorant views and those views are challenged, the Christian is being "persecuted" for his/her beliefs. The notion of consequences for your actions never applies to these folks. I've had this argument with my fundamentalist family for years. If you say something hateful and ignorant and you are called on it--that is a consequence, not persecution. The belief system is so skewed in favor of their inevitable victimhood, they are simply unable to see it any other way. This is, in my mind, some sort of mass paranoid delusion and it is dangerous. Historically, people who feel threatened, whether the threat is real or imagined, feel justified in doing some pretty heinous things. I've actually resorted to counting the number of times some stranger says "Merry Christmas" to me, so I can share that as evidence with my folks that this whole war on Christmas thing is a bunch of BS. So far, they are not persuaded, because, after all, O'Reilly, Gibbons, Beck and their ilk all think there is a war on Christmas and they are "newsmen."
BTW, I was surprised to learn from my relatives that there is active Christian persecution going on in Canada (that's right--
Canada) where devout Christians are not allowed to go to church. Canadians, known for their intolerance and violent oppression of other cultures, apparently are blocking pious Christians from worship. Since this seems like a pretty significant story that might have gotten legs with the mass media, it is shocking that the only place you will learn about this awful persecution is at a handful of Pentacostal and Baptist churches. Really--this is the drivel these people hear and believe.
Be careful here. IF you look around the conservative blogs and press you will see an underlying concern with a HUCKster nomination. They don't think he can win as he appeals only to the religious right and has no appeal to those that have been manipulating the religious right. That translates to his having no chance at winning the presidency, and he has no chance of that at all. Now, that article was well written, believable and backed up with facts. It is devastating to HUCKster and BIll'o pointed us to it. What do you think Bill is really doing here? I would say eating his cake and having it too.
It's amazing to me, that people will listen to a couple of batshit crazy loones have a conversation that is based on the delusional rantings of one of the loones.
Who are the pathetic imbeciles who listen to these assholes? Oh yeah, that 24%er thing.
Wouldn't it be hilarious if we found out that Liberal viewers, who are trying to stay one step ahead of Billo, are all Nielsen Rating households? Owie.
There is no standards on FOX like O'Rielly's show. They can say and smeat aythone that they feel their monetary class should.
When was the last time Laura or Bill went to church?
What business is it of theirs who has religion and what kind?
They do not speak of their own faith.
So Bill O will be telling us that it was GOD that told him to pay that $million dollar sexual harassment case on him, right?
If you have to legislate your faith, then you really don't have conviction. What you have is insecurity and that drives the need to have your faith realized and embodied in the actions of others, so you feel good about it.
Those that really believe, with conviction that is true, have no need to see their faith externalized. It stands on it's own. Others can see this simple truth just by watching these believers eat their own dog food, live their lives, and strive to be something better.
Sorry folks, just had to get that out.
I REALLY cannot stand this crap. Freedom of religion means being able to find your beliefs, live them and be better for it. It does not mean unclaimed territory, nor does it mean secular. This whole mess is like some goddammed race to plant the flag, ....err the cross or whatever first, before some other moron manages to do it.
Give $100 to Kucinich today: https://services.myngp.com/ngponlineservices/contribution.aspx?X=aDlDFFT...
Hey! It wasn't that Malkin couldn't stomach it any longer, it's that she was too radical for even Billo.
They're both vile but Malkin is a few shades worse.
To quote Austin Powers; "It's a bit nutty."
Don't you just feel sorry for these poor, persecuted people? Just like the poor, persecuted Mexicans who've sneaked into the country and tell all who'll listen that they U. S. really belongs to them and they're taking it back. Please.
osamabinforgotten @ 17:
I don't ever recall Jesus denouncing anyone for not worshiping him and the father and the holy ghost.
Such a bizarre statement! The greatest gift from God is "freewill", and he gave us his begotten son that died for our sin. So that all we do would be forgiven, and his last commandment was to love one another. I distinctly remembering welcoming all to his kingdom. I don't remember Jesus requiring a vow of loyalties to get in his exclusive club.
Hallo, I'm writing from the UK.
Bill O'Reilly seems like a complete and utter c**t. But does he not have a point with reference to anti-christian bias in the US media? Any reasonable person would find the activities of right-wing Christian fundamentalists abhorrent, ditto Muslim "Islamofascists", but where is the same level of outrage about Jewish extremist "Zionazis" who are trying to drag your country into yet another war? Look at your 'Pope' article on this site. Can we see a lampoon of a fundamentalist rabbi please?
Yeah, thought not.
This is dedicated to Bill O and La-La
