O'Reilly has a new enemy: Waukegan High School Seniors for voting lesbian couple as 'cutest couple'
http://mediamatters.org/items/200711090001

O'Reilly, still not relaxing "on all this gay stuff," took issue with IL high school seniors voting lesbians "Cutest Couple"


On the November 7 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, reporting on the recent crowning of two girls as "Cutest Couple" during an annual senior yearbook poll at Waukegan High School in Illinois, host Bill O'Reilly said to his guest, Dr. Laura Berman, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry and obstetrics/gynecology at Northwestern University, "he kids voted this couple the cutest couple to tweak the adults, Doctor, to cause trouble, to make an issue of the yearbook." O'Reilly later claimed: "A lot of parents say, 'Listen, we don't want to normalize homosexuality in a public way in an academic setting, high school, among minors.' " When Berman, who had previously said -- "homosexuality is becoming, thankfully, more normalized, because this is the time in adolescence that kids are exploring their sexuality and, in fact, starting to identify what their sexual orientation is" -- asked, "Why?" O'Reilly replied, "Well, for a number of reasons. One: social. It's much more difficult to be a homosexual than a heterosexual in America. Two: religious. There are people who believe that that kind of a lifestyle ... is against their religion. And they pass that on to their children. ... Three: an exposition of sexuality in a minor -- and that's very important -- in a minor situation is inappropriate in an academic setting. All of those things are valid, Doctor."


Billo seriously needs a hobby!

15. The RW can't target adults, -because- of their adults.

3. Dear Mr. O'Reilly...
Edited on Fri Nov-09-07 10:56 AM by Deep13
Robo used his “product” only occasionally, but tonight was special. He had two fifteen-year-old girls who would do anything for the drug, and he was determined to exploit the situation.

“Say, baby, put that pipe down and get my pipe up,” Robo said to one of the girls. She was so intoxicated she had trouble standing, but Robo was her sugar daddy, and as he sat in a filthy, imitation, leather couch, there in the living room of a run-down three-bedroom apartment, she obediently performed oral sex on him.

Five feet away, the other teenage girl sat on a mattress on the floor and watched, greedily sucking on the crack pipe Robo had passed to her. Edgar looked over and grinned, showing yellow, decaying teeth. Obviously, he preferred oral sex to oral hygiene.

“You’re next, girl, and I want you to do her too,” he ordered. As Robo took the crack pipe back the girl groggily nodded her consent. Inhaling deeply, Robo blew the cocaine smoke out through his nose and mouth. The bitter taste left him feeling powerful, energized, and free of worry. He was bad and he was flush.

Those Who Trespass written by Bill O'Reilly. 1998

5. Loofah aside, I think it's fantastic that a same sex couple was voted "Cutest"
The times may well be a-changing for the better.

10. Considering his last point, then, he should be against the categoy "cutest couple" entirely,
not just when applied to a homosexual couple.

11. You think Bill would be someone to win any title with the word "cute" in it
I think this is nothing more than Jealousy - jealousy that even lesbian couples are considered way (way way way way way way way way way way) more cuter than Bill is!

14. I'm very glad that they can be out at school
and that they're respected and accepted enough to be considered a cute couple. :woohoo:

This definitely shows some progress. :)

BillO can kill my arthritic old ass. x(
