Pinhead

I gave up on O'Reilly ages ago but still dvr his show for Bernie Goldberg and Dennis Miller, two of the funniest and astute political commentators around.
The reason I stopped watching is not because I disagree with him, resent his phony populist persona, or even that he lost donkey cred with me when he ignorantly questioned Stephen Colbert's Irish heritage because his middle name is Tyrone. As in County Tyrone you jackass.

What bothers me most about O'Reilly is that he can't debate his way out of a paper bag. He constantly loses to lefties he has no business losing to. The reason for this is simple, he argues like a liberal. Emotionally.

Case in point, he got schooled tonight by some young broad from the Women's Media Center who looked like she was one Starbucks run away from her summer internship.

The issue was whether O'Reilly was an ageist and sexist for comparing Helen Thomas to a witch. He let the guest Courtney Martin frame the argument about the word witch and he back pedaled from the word faster than Ray Liotta apologizing for calling Joe Pesci funny.

Helen Thomas DOES look and sound like a witch.

A nasty nasally shriveled shrew of a half breed troll witch.

Debate over.
