Before I begin to type this diatribe of mine, I must warn that the video in this diary may not be suitable for sensitive eyes and ears because it is a full 7:42 of "The Factor".
So there has been a lot of talk lately about the Sarah Palin pregnancy. At first I thought the evidence seemed plausible but after more scrutiny it does not seem likely that her baby is actually her daughters. However Bill O has taken this argument to a new level...
Beyond the fold, The ALL spin zone...
Watch this video at your own risk.
So Bill O'Reilly thinks that people on the Daily Kos are just as bad as Nazi's and the KKK. (Interestingly enough he did say it would be a Republican most likely to attend one of those meetings.) Good job Bill. So questioning a person on whether or not the baby was hers is equivalent to the desire to exterminate entire races of people?
Is it Sarah Palin's child? or Hey let's go lynch some N******! Yeah I gotta say I fail to see the connection on that one.
Now Bill does have a point that maybe some of the diaries on here probably crossed a line but they didn't go from mildly inappropriate to genocidal maniac in a few short paragraphs.
Unfortunately this is exactly what the right wing wanted from us. We took this too far and now they get to come on TV and radio and bash the netroots movement as a bunch of far left radicals. If we're going to continue to make the United States a more progressive nation we're going to have to do it with a little more tact.
I apologize if I'm being preachy but I don't want to see the progressive movement slowed because of people like BillO and Hannity.
