O'Reilly Finally Goes Off The Deep End
Last week, Bill O'Reilly threatened to sic Al Qaeda on San Francisco.
And if Al Qaeda comes in here and blows you up, we're not going to do anything about it. We're going to say, look, every other place in America is off limits to you, except San Francisco. You want to blow up the Coit Tower? Go ahead.
Then, instead of apologizing, he wildly spun and defended the threats:
What I said isn’t controversial. What I said needed to be said.
And now, Billy is going to pubish an online enemies list.
In O’Reilly’s view the only real problem is the “internet smear sites” drawing attention to his comments:
Some far left internet smear sites have launched a campaign to get me fired over my point of view. I believe they do this on a daily basis. This time the theme is O’Reilly is encouraging terrorist attacks. Unbelievably stupid. Not unusual with these guttersnipes.
Fairly typical comments from O’Reilly. But he added an unusual twist. O’Reilly promised to publish the names of everyone who supported these “internet smear sites” on his website:
I’m glad the smear sites made a big deal out of it. Now we can all know who was with the anti-military internet crowd. We’ll post the names of all who support the smear merchants on billoreilly.com. So check with us.
It’s unclear where O’Reilly would find such a list. But since he has labeled everyone who supports websites like MediaMatters.org and ThinkProgress.org as “anti-military” it seems to be an effort to intimidate and shame our readers.
Dude, I wanna be on the Enemies List!!! Hi Bill, my name is Luna_k from Reston, Virginia, and I'M YOUR NUMBER ONE ENEMY! Pick me pick me pick me!!!!
