Bill O'Reilly vs. Jon Stewart

[Eric J in MN]

From Greg Saunders at "This Modern World" blog:

Here’s what he said on his radio show :

O’REILLY: There you go. Jon Stewart, “Secular Central.” Oh, I’m sorry, Comedy Central — and I like Stewart, but we know what he’s doing over there.

And here’s what he said on Fox :

O’REILLY: Predictably, the opponents of public displays of Christmas continue to put forth counter-arguments on ‘Secular Central.’ I — I mean, Comedy Central.

A joke so funny you had to tell it twice, huh? Good work you bigoted, half-witted sexual predator — whoops, I meant, Bill.

While it’s funny occasionally, the faux-Freudian slip shtick gets old really, really fast...

What’s funnier than O’Reilly’s unfortunate attempts at humor, however, is that O’Reilly is targeting Jon Stewart. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, Bill, but Jon Stewart is a Jew and Jews don’t celebrate Christmas. When you’ve sunk to the point that you’re attacking non-Christians for not celebrating Christian holidays, your witchhunt has completely jumped the shark. I say you hang this one up and prepare for your next crusade. Here’s a suggestion : Did you know that those anti-American bastards in Canada don’t even celebrate the Fourth of July?! If we can stretch that one between May and July sweeps weeks, then we’re good as gold.

1. Right

The first question I had when I saw this was if you are Bill O'Reilly and you are going to take on Jon Stewart, don't you think that you should have all of your facts correct and not try to pull a fast one. Especially when Stewart isn't going to just lay down and be your bitch about it. I will be honest, i never really thought about the Jewish angle so you make a good point about that, I mean his birth name is Jon Leibowitz.
