Always a good read.

The last paragraph was farking hilarious.

Ebert: Bill, I am concerned that you have been losing touch with reality recently. Did you really say you are more powerful than any politician?

That reminds me of the famous story about Squeaky the Chicago Mouse. It seems that Squeaky was floating on his back along the Chicago River one day. Approaching the Michigan Avenue lift bridge, he called out: Raise the bridge! I have an erection!

Winner!

Total PWNAGE. Awesome. BillO will likely have a coronary when he reads this.

Never piss off Ebert.

Bored Horde: The last paragraph was farking hilarious.

People in my office wondered why I let out a sharp laugh.

Joystk: Never piss off on Ebert.

Even better advice.

DamnYankees: Joystk: Never piss off on Ebert.

Even better advice.

Confucius say - 'better to be pissed off than pissed on'.

now that was a beatdown.

tnpir: Total PWNAGE. Awesome. BillO will likely have a coronary when he reads this.

Nope. It's just more free ego massaging for BillO. He doesn't care what you say, so long as you are talking about him.

Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

Erebus1954: Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

O'Reilly asked for a boycott of his paper. Did you not read it at all?

I guess you believe no one should be able to respond to O'Reilly's attacks?

Wow just like falafel believes no on should be able to respond to him on his show.

Ebert hasn't lost a step. Good for him!

Wow, did Ebert ever smack around O'Reilly.

Kyosuke: Nope. It's just more free ego massaging for BillO. He doesn't care what you say, so long as you are talking about him.

I tend to agree with this. O'Reilly is like Rush. The worst thing you could do to O'Reilly is ignore him.

This was a funny article though.

Ollie just laid the smack down on Stan!

Erebus1954 Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly.

Your right!

But not in the sense you were hoping.

Dipshiats like you and your buddy billy o'reilly helped the democrats win.

Keep it up, vote palin/plumber 2012! and ensure even more of us join the diaspora from the republicans/religious fringe/whatever they are pretending to be this week.

Erebus1954: Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

I hear this a lot from the wingnuts. Not to get all "Free Speechy" on you, but here goes:

"Free Speech" doesn't mean we have to let everything slide, nor does it mean that we have to legislate what can/can't be said, and where. "Free Speech" means we have to countenance bullshiat like Bill O'Reilly's and Cindy Sheehan's, and have no legal recourse. This is a good thing.

It forces those of us sane enough to recognize bullshiat to counter it. Like the introduction of a virus into the bloodstream, you can't think it away (or pray it away. BIOLOGY DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY). Each foreign body (or, back to the real-world scenario, O'Reilly rant) must be attacked and neutralized by introduction of other bioagents (or, again back to real life, shown to be bullshiat), lest the host be maimed/killed.

The louder our counter-speech is, the higher the hope is that it ceases to be needed. Like smallpox (all but eliminated), the longer we fight the disease, the less often we will need to. Again, like smallpox, the danger is forgetting how to treat the disease, but I have a feeling that if this right-wing insanity dies in the next 15-20 years, if ever it is brought up again, we can point to a history book and say, "READ, MOTHERFARKER."

Erebus1954: Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

Nah, I tune into Fox, CNN, and MSNBC once in a while just to see the commentators go frothing.

Whatever happened to something like the original CNN Headline News. Nothing but a Hitler Youth anchor clones reading off a teleprompter flatly. I mean, you got your news, as unbiased as it could be. Sure it was read dully by people that, if good hair and teeth were brains, could rule the world. Still, it was the news, no commentary. I miss that.

I like BOTH these guys.

When a guy calls for a boycott of the company that pays your salary, I think you have the right to tee him up if you want.

You don't want Roger Ebert teeing you up.

Erebus1954: Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

If this is the best you guys can do, 2010 and 2012 is going to be a massacre.

============================

...whaaaa?

Its a well known fact that Ebert is a cancer-appeaser, but don't let that get in the way of your libtard worship service.

//wandered in from TDS thread

Phil Herup: I like BOTH these guys.

Ironically enough, neither one of them would like you.

Ebert has too good of taste...
And O'Reilly considers you nothing more than a dollar-sign with a keyboard.

Phil Herup: I like BOTH these guys.



That... is why you fail.

Bill O. is the mouse

He thinks he has a huge schlong

But really it's not

Erebus1954: Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

Howard who?

Erebus1954: Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

It must suck not being able to understand cause and effect.

What a fool. Nobody with a brain thinks about O'Reilly.

That was the famous Ernie Bushmiller comic strip in which Sluggo explained that "wow" was "mom" spelled upside-down.

I don't know what that means but it's so funny to me

Back around 2000, CNN actually had some quality programming. You could get the news, and hear some relevent, unbiased expert opinions (and calm discussions!). I used to watch them every day. CNN decided I wasn't important as a viewer, and switched the crap they are today. I haven't watched them since.

Hideously Gigantic Smurf: Phil Herup: I like BOTH these guys.

Bull... They would get along famously with me. Everyone does.

I would probably get along better with Ebert though. He is not an a-hole.

If I want to see Ebert opine I'll read a movie review. I don't much care for celebrities who use their spot in the limelight to propagate political sputterings.

Remember that video of Siskel and Ebert 'behind the scenes' and they were cussing and hating all over each other?

THAT was funny.

Rann Xerox: Erebus1954: Wow, democrats just can't get enough O'Reilly. It's like the people that hate Howard Stern.

Howard who?

I dunno, these dumb ass republicans are STILL obsessed with Anna Nicole I guess.

Even before that... during Gulf War I, they were far and away the best news source, period. But they were also the only cable news channel, and internet news basically didn't exist. Now they have to fight for their ratings and they've taken the low, low road.

I don't always agree with Ebert's taste in films, but he is a devilishly good writer.

ScubaDude1960: DNRTA

Then STFU.

kleppe: If I want to see Ebert opine I'll read a movie review. I don't much care for celebrities who use their spot in the limelight to propagate political sputterings.

And that makes you special.

O'Reilly gets served more than pancakes at IHOP.

The Point is here.

You are here.

Those sentences were supposed to be further apart.
