O'Reilly dissected.....
Check out this new blog: http://sylvesterblogcom.blogspot.com/

In Sylvester Brown's St. Louis Post DIspatch column from Thursday of last week, Sylvester took O'Reilly to task. O'Reilly responded with a diatribe about fanatical lefties and attacked Sylvester. Here is Sylvester's response:

<snip>

I remember a drunken, seemingly deranged bum in my old neighborhood who walked around with soiled pants, talking to himself and cursing anybody and everybody who crossed his path.

If my mother caught her kids laughing at the bum, she'd scold us, "Leave that man alone. Can't you see he's crazy?"

Fox's million-dollar blabbermouth, Bill O'Reilly, reminds me of that neighborhood lush. Perhaps we "liberals" ought to leave him alone, too. After all ... he's just crazy.

There's no better explanation for the man's behavior.

* * * *

Check out the whole article and Sylvester's new blog. Sylvester is one of my closest and dearest friends in the world. I have been trying to get him to start a blog on national issues for a long time and he finally did. Check him out; I bet you guys will love Sylvester Brown.

2. and spent it for his sins, too.
just not enough.

O'Rielly is the kind of nut who will self-destruct. He is already getting wild with his KOlberman issues. A bit of a nudge in the right direction, and he will explode.

3. Oh Damn!!!
When you said dissected, I was hoping you meant that literally, as in "He was dissected at the hospital."

23. He has had some great columns lately.
I thought his first blog post was really good also. I hope people notice the work he is doing, because some of it is exceptional.

21. If you read his article yesterday.....
those were my margaritas that knocked him out. We never know when we will end up in his columns.

He and his wife are both awesome people. His blog should be interesting.

16. Great stuff
Tell Sylvester to keep on O'Really's back. And get that dinner he's owed. Without Bill being present, if he wants to enjoy his meal.

18. There's another article on BOR
In this week's New Yorker.

Funny and scary at the same time. It's obvious that BOR is absolutely deranged and the article makes that point (albeit in the most diplomatic terms). BOR will probably take off on them, again.

22. Maybe We Should Have Pity...
...for people like O'Reilly. Every time we attack them, it's the same thing: "those fanatical lefties!" They never can come up with anything else. O'Reilly *is* like some crazy bum ranting to himself.

24. Hey GumboYaYa!
I love Sylvester's writing, pretty much the only thing I read in the Post other than the movie reviews. He tells it like it is and tells it how no one else can. The man cracks me up.
How the heck are you?

27. Oh my, that is a great story.
I love the blog.

Several years ago, before I had XM and could listen to something other than this kind of crap I used to listen to his show now and then (when my blood pressure could take it). This paragraph from the latest blog entry says exactly what I thought when I would listen, "But, no. Like the soiled, cantankerous drunk who blames the bottle for his condition, O'Reilly invites ridicule when he denies, dodges and responds with paranoid proclamations that the "liberal" media and "smear web sites" are out to get him." If you listened often enough you could hear the contradictions over and over and I used to wonder if he was a bit toasted or defective. The other guys are just shills with no scruples but O'R? He seems just nuts.

You are friends with Sylvester Brown? Lucky you, he sounds like a great guy. Lucky him, I know you are a great guy.

I am going back to read more of his blog. I like it. Thanks. :hi:
