So did Ludacris take O'Reilly's lunch money or what?
Billo's obession with Ludacris is soaring somewhere between stalking and openly racist. Any time he inks a deal to sell products (even Budwieser) Billo has to protest and try to get him fired.

What's funny about it is he seems to think Ludacris is the most dangerous rapper in the world, and the more he rants on it the more obvious it becomes that he's never listened to the music.

I love how Billo is trying to paint himself as a defender of the black community in order to justify his vendetta. As Bill Maher once said about someone "Yeah, he's straight outta Compton".

2. O'Really
is obsessed with gangsta rappers. I watch his show every couple of weeks or so, and he always seems to have a segment on them. His m.o. seems to be to bring on a black guest and then challenge that guest to denounce Ludacris, Snoop Dogg, or whoever he happens to be obsessed with at the moment. If the guest is equivocal, he tries to bully them. He is fascinated when black people admit to problems in the community. I don't believe white people get the same sort of scrutiny on his show. Fair and Balanced, my ass!

7. Sharpton Shuts Up O'Reilly
O'Reilly got his lunch handed to him by Al Sharpton a few weeks ago.

When he started on that tired anti-rap tirade and tried to attack Lil Kim, Sharpton replied "I'm more worried about Big Bush than Lil Kim."

3. Why is rap so bad??? After the way the Country "Music" community....
acted after 9/11 and in the lead up to the second Iraq War, I do not see how Rap can be any worse than Toby KKKeith, Darryl Worley, Travis Tritt :puke: and an aray of other right wing extremists

Country is really over the top in it's hate mongering.

4. Billo's a scream
He spent a segment of his radio show deconstructing the "Elite media" which he defined as outlets that look down on you the reader/viewer as "dopes".

Meanwhile, he continued to refer to Al Franken as "Stuart Smalley" for the rest of his show. That's a step up from just refering to his "smear book" that the evil DNC is corrupting youth with.

Irony? Whats that?

5. Nothing new
His obsession with rap is non-ending. I've always thought he was an idiot (and I don't even like rap!) The whole thing is based on "nice" white people's fear of black people (and white people who "act like black people"). Good God!

He plays these issues for his audience.

Like the gay issue. He made a big deal about the number of gay people in Miami Beach. His argument was that them living in their own homes and community would threaten straight tourists with kids who wanted to visit their beaches. This is where Rep thought breaks down. Private property uber alles. Except when it comes to fags (and blacks and women). Never mind they bought the property and paid taxes on it - their existence in their own community is a threat to people from outside their community.

I watched that episode. My response: "Well damn right! Those faggots oughta be bussed outed their neighborhoods anytime anybody else wants to frolic in them! How dare they say otherwise!" My Dad's response was "It sounds reasonable." To which I said " Just like when those niggers wanna bring their families and frolic in your nice, white, gated community?" My Dad's response: "Isn't about time you went home? If you can't understand rational thought then we really can't communicate."

What's a boy to do?

Khash.

8. it is kinda getting old
Ya, I wouldn't want my kid listening to Ludacris, but c'mon. Budweiser is for adults, that's who it's marketed for. I see no problem with Budweiser hiring an adult to sell a product for adults.

9. O'Reilly no better than a con artist he apparently does listen to rap but
like a true current day republican what he thinks is what's best for those who do listen and enjoy it.

10. I think there are other factors
Jealousy that rap artists can make as much money as atrophied old white male conservative journalists....

11. People should let O'Reilly see a "white" face...one you may have seen...
...the white Guy Fawkes mask of "V" in the movie "V for Vendetta."

If you haven't seen the film, there's a British equivalent of the Falafel King in the film, a liar and propagandist, who is confronted by "V" in the shower and killed.

People should show up at O'Lielly's events, and at a certain point, whip out their Guy Fawkes masks, put them on, and keep quietly watching him speak.

You could call it "fear of a white planet."

13. More of O'Reilly's wisdom on music:
The day the Sex Pistols were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, a few weeks ago, Billy was saying something about they didn't deserve it and they were only there because of their irreverent name. Then he started talking about how the Bluebirds or Robins or some doo-op group deserved to be in. Yeah, right as if the guys that more or less invented punk should not be in the HOF but some some band no one but Bill has ever heard of that piled on the doo-op movement should be in :eyes:
