- Calann, on 11/14/2007, -8/+22What cracked me up last year about O'Reilly's trumped-up war on Christmas rants was when it was pointed out that his own website offered "Holiday gifts" instead of "Christmas gifts". O'Reilly is such a huge hypocrite that it's amazing anyone still believes his nonsense.
- boner79, on 11/10/2007, -8/+17Jesus Christ, this again?!?!? I'm tired of hearing about the plight of Christians in this country. You would think we're still crucifying them and feeding them to lions for amusement. They conveniently overlook the fact that they are in control the the most powerful country on earth with the mightiest, and need I say overwhelmingly Christian, army in the world. Get over yourselves!!!
- facelesscoward, on 11/10/2007, -0/+9I can't speak for other people, but I'm not anti-religion or anti-Christianity. I will tell you what I believe, but if you disagree, I won't like you any less for it.
- reallydigginit, on 11/10/2007, -6/+14I remember reading about O'Reilly bragging to Andrea Mackris about how much he enjoys using a vibrator on himself (read: jamming it up his ass— hey, he's a Republican after all). That it is "shaped like a ***** with a little battery in it." (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/1013043mackri ...
I wonder if for the holidays he jams a Christmas tree up his ass? You know, a little one "with a battery in it." - inactive, on 11/10/2007, -0/+8Pssst: There is no hate america first crowd, this group of people who Bill O' Reiliy is telling you about is imaginary. All that happened was some rabbi wanted a menorah put up as well, and they overreacted by banning everything so they didn't have to pay for a menorah. I can see how you would believe that there is a "Hate America First" crowd, with all the complete idiots in america, the nation and its people start to blend together. Either way, if you "Hate America" or not, theres no possible way you can agree that polarizing the country into Redneck-Hillbilly KKK members and Pinko Commie Hate America Firsters, is in any way helpful to anyone, at all?
- hawkeye17, on 11/10/2007, -8/+15I swear to God one day O'Reilly will pull a Woody Hayes and punch a guest or something on TV lol. The guy's totally lost his grip on reality.
- VIrus9, on 11/10/2007, -2/+9As if being conservative automatically makes someone part of the "Religious Right". That's certainly news to me, as I'm sure it would be to other secular conservatives.
- inactive, on 11/12/2007, -3/+9That's it, I'm declaring a war on this goddamn victim culture. My God, we've become a nation of crybabies, playing the victim card every time we're unhappy because life isn't fair. It's sickening the way people like Mr. O'Reilly here are leading the charge (but funny, too, whenever they get upset when someone else plays the victim card). Grow a spine, America!
- PistolSO, on 11/10/2007, -4/+10He helped cancel Bill-O from speaking at a missing kids forum after Bill-O said some inappriopriate victim-blaming statemens about Shawn Hornbeck...
- pintomp3, on 11/10/2007, -4/+9oh poor christians. they changed the wording to make it more inclusive to people of different faiths. what next, they will feed christians to the lions?
i'm still not sure what pine trees and candy canes have to do with jesus's birth anyway, didn't he live in the middle east? was he even born during that time of the year? - facelesscoward, on 11/14/2007, -4/+10Thank you. I'm really sick of Christians pretending to be persecuted in America. This is the same country where atheists are the least trusted group of people ( http://www.mndaily.com/articles/2006/03/24/67686 ).
But, yes, Christians are persecuted. The big evil Judeo-Christian American society is out to get itself. - inactive, on 11/10/2007, -1/+5He hasn't written a book of propaganda for them.
- PistolSO, on 11/14/2007, -8/+12Ho, Ho, Ho...Christmas has come early.. Bill-O's rants bring laughter throughout the land.
- toxicityj, on 11/10/2007, -1/+4I've never really understood why people get pissed off at the Happy Holidays thing. I'm a Christian and at church people flip out about it. But it makes no sense. Because its not like Christmas is the only "Christmas-time" holiday. Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanzaa are all going on at the same time, so it only makes sense to coin a term that include all religious holidays (not that christmas is really a religious holiday anymore).
I think a lot of christians like to blow ***** out of proportion. You do anything that they don't like and BAM! you're trying to get rid of God. - jj101, on 11/11/2007, -1/+4Wow there ieye, easy on the meds. Getting a little paranoid eh?
- shawnfassett, on 11/10/2007, -15/+18appleann1 is crap. apparently facts are scary for conservatives. if they learned santa claus was a myth they'd pee their panties. grow up. fairy tales are for children (this includes God)
- appleann1, on 11/12/2007, -1/+3"Would you christians like to hear "Happy Ramadan" when you walk into a store? No? Then your waging a war on Islam!"
Christmas is a FEDERAL HOLIDAY. Is Islam? - jj101, on 11/12/2007, -1/+3I agree. I guess its possible that somewhere in the universe, Douglas Adams style, this is insulting. Here on earth though someone wishing you "happy holidays" can only be good, right? Next people will get pissy about someone saying "have a good weekend".
- jackgivens, on 11/12/2007, -3/+5You must have your eyes closed or have been born yesterday to not see that there is a real (not perceived) effort to remove Christmas from the "Holidays". If you are not a Christian you can support such activities but it is intellectually dishonest to not recognize there is real effort to change the nature of Christmas.
- kurttrail, on 11/10/2007, -1/+3Keeping a known pervert from speaking at a MISSING KIDS FORUM is really supporting missing kids.
There I fixed it for you. - gmarie624, on 11/12/2007, -1/+3Will this ever sink in? CHRISTMAS IS A FEDERAL HOLIDAY - if you all don't like that, then go change the law!
- inactive, on 11/10/2007, -14/+16Well if we are talking crap it we can't do it without mentioning appleann1.
Since this was very well debunked over the last couple years the only ones buying now are the right wing asshats too dumb to remember last year. - nblsavage, on 11/10/2007, -2/+4Seriously, you claim that thinkprogress is biased toward this story and your response in support of that argument is a link to worldnetdaily? Pot, let me introduce you to kettle.
- kurttrail, on 11/10/2007, -0/+2http://microscum.com/misc/rightard/
- inactive, on 11/10/2007, -3/+5I hope he uses a year-old Daily Show clip again, that was priceless. I guess people weren't hating america enough that day, so they had to pull some america hate from their archives.
- nblsavage, on 11/10/2007, -0/+2ouch...yeah I'm pretty sure the minorities would appreciate not getting catheters.
- jj101, on 11/10/2007, -0/+2Well said Sir.
- jj101, on 11/11/2007, -1/+3Because that is what the religion you are getting so worked up about teaches you to do - care.
- kurttrail, on 11/12/2007, -3/+4Naw, I want idiots like him around for the humor they provide.
Rightards are funny to laugh at. - mablco, on 11/10/2007, -1/+2no, if i was A and B that would make me a republican.
- Glynth, on 11/20/2007, -1/+2... Because offering gifts on a store for people that purchase for Christmas or Hannakah or WHATEVER is the same as the sorts of things he talks about on his program? THAT'S your great example of O'Reilly's hypocrisy? Go back to junior high - you need some book learnin' 'bout somethin' we peoples call "logic."
- Arcesius, on 11/14/2007, -1/+2Where's that one picture on the truth about Christmas that was on here a couple months ago? That was classic =P
Christmas sucks, though - hypocritical Christian holiday. I'm celebrating solstice, dammit =). - Arcesius, on 11/11/2007, -0/+1I'm sorry, but anytime anyone on digg uses the phrase "ad hominem", it just sounds trite. Oh, and reported for the offensiveness.
- mablco, on 11/10/2007, -1/+2mmmmm falafel loufas
- mathmanjeffy, on 11/10/2007, -0/+1"More importantly, O’Reilly is behind in his outrage. Last year, he launched his “First Salvo in 2006 War Over Christmas” nearly two weeks earlier on October 27, complaining to former Sen. John Danforth (R-MO) about “lawsuits all over the country by the ACLU, objecting to Christmas carols, Christmas displays.”"
Way to read your own article, submitter. - appleann1, on 11/12/2007, -1/+2Real class act you got there.
- nblsavage, on 11/14/2007, -3/+3I condemn the Christians for their war against Yule, Saturnalia and Natalis Solis Invicti. All the winter festivals that the Christians co-opted for their own nefarious purposes.
- Glynth, on 11/20/2007, -2/+2Wow, a lot of anti-Christian bigots in this thread. Shall I count how many people said Christians are evil? "Stole" holidays for evil reasons? Etcetera etcetera? All this alongside the mantra "Christians aren't persecuted!!!!11!" Pathetic, blind, hate-spewing bigots. That's not an insult. That's what many of you are.
- appleann1, on 11/12/2007, -2/+2"Rightards"?.........Is that you dave?
- toxicityj, on 11/14/2007, -2/+2it does if i make a holiday in which i worship the weekend god.
- kurttrail, on 11/10/2007, -2/+2"Would you christians like to hear "Happy Ramadan" when you walk into a store? No? Then your waging a war on Islam!"
Bush did call the war on terror a "crusade." Where have you been the last six years? - kurttrail, on 11/12/2007, -3/+3Christmas is a pagan holiday. Christians stole it, and that started the war, but us pagans are in it FTW!
Boo! - mtshasta, on 11/10/2007, -4/+4Speaking of Woody----------Go Buckeyes #1
- internetcoward, on 11/12/2007, -3/+2So does everyone pseudo hate bill oreilly enough to hate him... but give him press? So lame, if you digg this then you are for oreilly essentially.
- kurttrail, on 11/11/2007, -2/+1You mean besides the one on top of your head?
- internetcoward, on 11/12/2007, -5/+3exactly, its seems that people psuedo hate bill oreilly, they want him around just to hate, even though they give him press...
