Lynching Party

Didn't no less than George Bush say the other day that lynching jokes and noose displays were out of bounds? Apparently Billo didn't get the message, so he decided to give his tribute to Black History Month.

In a discussion of recent comments made by Michelle Obama, Bill O'Reilly took a call from a listener who stated that, according to "a friend who had knowledge of her," Obama " 'is a very angry,' her word was 'militant woman.' " O'Reilly later stated: "I don't want to go on a lynching party against Michelle Obama unless there's evidence, hard facts, that say this is how the woman really feels. If that's how she really feels -- that America is a bad country or a flawed nation, whatever -- then that's legit. We'll track it down."

This is just the words of someone who's completely ignorant of history, ignorant of language, and ignorant of feelings. Given what normally happens after remarks like this, he'll be fired. I don't think it will happen or it should happen. I don't believe in censorship. I do think that he should be reminded, daily, of his own insensitivity and stupidity.
