1. O'Reilly Slanders, "Tiller, The Baby Killer", and Laura Ingraham uses the word "hitler-ian" to
describe the abortion practices of Dr. Tiller. Ingraham and O'Reilly would have love more murder and mayhem.

15. I am outraged to the point of wanting to beat Beck/Hannity and O'
Reilly to within an inch of their lives but will accept their removal from the airwaves instead. They should be in prison for domestic terrorism. They make me sick when they say they don't condone violence when all they do is cultivate it and celebrate when it is done. They don't know what they are talking about when it comes to tiller's work having never even seen any record of his patients conditions.

35. yeah, totally annoying. 16 empty posts in a row.
good thing that others (especially newbies) don't do that kind of shit just to run up their post count, or this forum would become unusable.

(in my case, it took me two years to post only about 600 posts... i'm starting to develop a complex. :P )

30. no, they shouldn't
the fearmongers always cry for constitutional restrictions after a tragedy. that's what you are doing.

they didn't commit "domestic terrorism". the guy who killed tiller did.

oreilly et al offered their opinion. that's still legal in the US.

fwiw, it is perfectly legal to say "i agree with violent jihad. i also agree with what the murderer of army recruiter did"

that's a lot stronger than what oreilly has done (since oreilly has condemned the murder), but it would still be legal.

you need a lesson in constitutional law and free speech.

otoh, if it can be shown that oreilly committed slander or libel, than that is civilly actionable.

calling tiller a murderer would not apply, but other statements of oreilly could be looked at.

19. WHO: 600,000 women die every year from child birth.
"Every day, at least 1,600 women die from the complications of pregnancy and childbirth. That is a minimum of 585,000 women dying every year.

In addition, each year over 50 million more women suffer from complications during pregnancy or delivery, many of which lead to long-term debilitating health problems.

Although pregnancy is not a disease, it does pose risks to the health and survival of a woman, in addition to the risks faced by the infant she bears. These risks are present throughout the world and in every setting."

http://www.who.int/inf-pr-1998/en/pr98-33.html

This source is from 11 years ago, things haven't got any better. It's like O'Reilly & Co. aren't concerned so much about children as they are about seeing women die. This is the real scandal.

27. Not that I'm anyone, but I disagree
I think that democrats should flood Fox News. Unfortunately, it has a big audience so if that audience only get one side, reinforced over and over again, whatever Fox pundits say becomes true. I don't think just any democrat should go on, but if they have the same type of balls Gibbs displayed in his conversation with Hannity during the election, then I say go for it. Fox is the channel the Democrats should be on especially.

26. I did it!
Yesterday evening, my family and I went to a trendy restaurant for a quick dinner. Of the SIX televisions in the establishment, five were on ESPN; the other on FOX. I knew I had to say something. But I wasn't looking forward to having to introduce the topics of abortion and assassination. I simply went to the counter and asked if he could turn that TV to any channel but FOX. Without a moment's hesitation, he did. Didn't even want to know why. Although I was completely prepared to explain why, he didn't even care.

Way too easy.

31. If you see Faux News on the TV screens in the lobby of
your bank,

ask them to please change it to another news channel,
so you don't have to listen to Faux while you wait in line.

That's what I did and they switched to CNN.

I got scowls, dagger looks AND
smiles and thumbs up from the other customers.

Speak up, get that garbage OFF the airwaves and TV screens!

Hell yes O'Reilly went too far, AGAIN!
That's all he seems to do, lately.

:rant:

Thanks.

:)

32. I've got a TV-B-Gone on order, should get here in a few days.
It's a good way to get rid of FAUX Noise in establishments like McDonalds, where FOX Noise literally buys the TVs and puts businesses under a contract to play FAUX Noise at all times.

I love causing contract violations between evil corporations... :evilgrin:
