In 2010, in response to the whistle-blower website WikiLeaks disseminating various leaked classified material, Bo Dietl and Bob Beckel called for the assassination of the website's spokesman Julian Assange [4]

(2 posts)I just joined this site and I wondered why people were trashing Bo Diddlely. Then I saw the picture, my blood pressure flared and I knew exactly to whom you referred! This guy has never met a camera he didn't like. He's a publicity & fame whore. I remember him from back when he was playing private detective for all the Hollywood people. I've seen him bloviate on various pundit shows and he makes about as much sense as Donald Trump. Even if I hadn't suffered listening to his bs over the years, I agree with the poster who said that his general appearance & aura do little to wet the appetite.

To many people, a county fair is supposed to be about family-friendly entertainment.
But a show by the comedian Gallagher on Thursday night a performance that was partially taxpayer-funded was hardly G-rated.
About 2,400 people attended the free show, which headlined opening night for the 2010 fair. Many of those 2,400 left before the performance was 30 minutes old.
Gallagher, best known for wielding a sledgehammer to smash food onstage, started his show with a 45-minute set that included dozens of profanities and off-color jokes, particularly disparaging to homosexuals.
Many of the jokes are not fit for publication in this newspaper. Here are two we can share with you...
