.. and their damn fallafels.

Way to be hip and timely, Bill.

In other news, Bill O'Reilly is now indistinguishable from Cartman.

"Hippies", like "Communist", "Socialist", "Fascist", and "Liberal", are just noises made by colicky adults who reasoning is less developed than an infant.

All of those, and the others, simply mean, "Not me!1!"

Ghastly: I can't wait for the last of the original hippies to finally die off so blow hards like O'Reilly, Hanity, Rush, and Beck have no audience.

Boomers, biggest sell out generation of the lot.

I can't wait for all of the above to die off with them.

Once boomers are dead and gone finally maybe America will be able to address the issues without blithering nonsense about the 1950s, or the rampant "me first and the gimme gimmes" that the boomers have made their signature political stance since the beginning.

Even hippies were selfish gits, free love hah. Someone else pays for it.

DammitIForgotMyLogin: like Jesus?

Jesus was a republican.

MLK would have voted for Romney.

Obama is an empty suit tyrant.

Republicans are civil rights champions.

These are obvious truths.

So ethanol-luvin' Corn State congressmen like Bob Dole are hippies?

Why are people still paying attention to this nutbag?

jake_lex: I think it's those darn kids with that loud rock roll music.

/get off my lawn

You fool, rock and roll is just a cover for that devil's music: jazz!

FARK is a haven for liberal pseudo intellectuals.

Revolt in the 1990's were actually caused mostly by lack of food, and unemployment. The Egyptian government had a system giving all college grads a job (they ran out of jobs to give). Eventually the cost of doing anything required you to bribe anyone involved to get anything done. I think the revolutions put up the fascade of fighting tyrants, but food and jobs are what really motivate people. Basic human needs trump basic human rights.

The real question is, why am I always being advised of this guy's opinion? Why does anyone care?

You know I really miss the days when having Glenn Beck on Fox made Bill O'Reilly look sane by comparison. Now that Bill is top dog again, his true self can shine through.

To play Bill out, what does that mean? FARK IT, HE'LL DO IT LIVE!! HE'LL DO IT LIVE, FARK IT!!!

and then in the second paragraph notes that they aren't even "problems"

all hippies have beards. therefore, everyone with a beard is a hippie.

Keep in mind he is the few rational one on Fox news lately.

I'm sure record breaking droughts had nothing to do with corn prices.

Sorry to bust your dream but the boomers are probably going to be around another 30 - 40 years with the healthcare advances. So we will be old when change may be able to start.

To be honest my memory of the '60s is rather foggy and disjointed but one thing I am clear on is this:
No matter how stoned I was,I never,ever hugged a tree without using a condom.

I read the headline as "Bill O'Reilly claims Middle Earth's problems have all been caused by "Hippies".  Immediately thought of the Elves...

He might be right, at that

I like that better.  At least that make some kind of sense.

Let me let you in on a little deceit the media has worked on your generation - us hippies? - we were about 5% of the Boomer generation, and mostly lived on the coasts. The rest of the Boomers were the same order-following, resentful, shiat-taking worms the wad have always been. While we got high and screwed and danced in the sun, they glared in silent rage , while being f**ked over by their bosses - again, as the wad always do. And now? They're getting even for the sixties - that's what the putirid, stinking "Reagan Revolution" was from the get-go.
They never "sold out" - they had nothing to sell.

While MSNBC has gained in the ratings of late, conservative Fox viewers are the last people likely to have shifted to there. CNN hasn't gained in the ratings at all, which means Fox viewers are
increasingly watching no television news at all.

Duh. They went off to watch Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.
