con man O'Reilly said jesus was weeping for him

said while he inwardly snickered

(on edit - don't know where the lines through the text came from, I did't post it)

FOX News host Bill O'Reilly declared that "omewhere Jesus is weeping" over criticism of O'Reilly in the print media. O'Reilly issued this lament at the end of his December 20 "Talking Points Memo" segment -- a monologue he devoted entirely to responding to criticisms of him by various op-ed columnists -- on The O'Reilly Factor.

-snip-

On the nationally syndicated Radio Factor earlier that day, O'Reilly went further in casting himself as a solitary, heroic voice: "So, they <"secular forces">, this weekend, have lashed back in a very brutal way against me because I'm the leading general of the anti-secular forces in this country right now. Unfortunately -- I never wanted the mantle. But I have to do it because they're wrong and they're gonna hurt America."

-snip-

Yet, despite weeks of coverage of "Christmas Under Siege," O'Reilly never mentioned that News Corporation, which owns FOX News Channel, held an inclusively titled "Caribbean Holiday Celebration." The word "Christmas" is conspicuously absent from the invitation.

3. Surely Jesus has more important things
to weep for. What's next? Jesus is weeping because Bill ran out of batteries for his you-know-what?

9. "Christmas under seige" What a f•••••g crock!
Christmas is not under siege except from retailers who begin their "holiday" sales pitches the day after Labor Day.


But the right needs to keep its subjects frightened and angry. That's O'Reilly's job.
