Don't miss Letterman tonight. Sounds like Dave smacked O'Liarly a good one. Or two or three. I can't wait to watch.
Best line - Dave to Billy: "You're putting words in my mouth, just the way you put artificial facts in your head!"
Here's the context:
"Oh, stop it," O'Reilly scolds the host. "Saddam Hussein slaughtered 300,000 to 400,000 people, all right, so knock it off . . . It isn't so black and white, Dave - it isn't, 'We're a bad country. Bush is an evil liar.' That's not true."
"I didn't say he was an evil liar," Letterman shoots back. "You're putting words in my mouth, just the way you put artificial facts in your head!"
Not black and white? Say wha? O'Liarly is the Dark Prince of Black and White! He knows no nuance!
Furthermore, the NY Post headline is Humorless Dave Rips O'Reilly. http://www.nypost.com/...
Now this puts me in mind of Tucker Carlson a couple of years back, when Jon Stewart was on that Crossfire show, and Carlson told Jon to be funny. Why should Jon or Dave be funny 100% of the time? I appreciate that even comedians can discuss deadly serious issues.
