way to go bill!!
Heaping any praise on O'Reilly only perpetuates the illusion that he is anything but an egomaniacal verbal pugilist sent from the very depths of hell to test the patience of all the polite and rational people of planet Earth.
I am not surprised you watch faux news because you are after all a dick, you come across about as "fair and balanced" as them.
Put your tinfoil hat on, load your gun, get into your bunker and i will PM you to tell you when Glenn Becks says its safe to come back outside.
you pay the lawyer bills then, show us how it works.

I can't afford it, I haven't become a multi millionaire through being an aggressive, confrontational, rude, nasty, bigoted cunt being cheered on by right wing retards like O'Reilly.

No no you haven't .
Thanks for pointing that out, but I have to wonder why being a left wing anti american ass hole hasn't brought you fame and fortune either.
So I guess we will have to let the right wing loud mouth pay the bill.
fuck that really sucks, wouldn't it have been cool if a lefty had offered the same?

I am neither left wing nor anti-American, you think because I am critical of O'Reilly and faux news that makes me left wing? No afraid not, politically there are some things I am liberal about and some things i am conservative about, am I complex individual. I consider each subject carefully then gather as many facts as i can before I form an opinion on it.
If more people in the world did this instead of reacting to every topic like a knee jerk retard the world would be a better place.

Oh!, a Glenn Beck conspiracy retard AND a pedant?, you must be a real hit at dinner parties.
As for who cares?, well, you do, clearly enough to comment anyway.
I agree that the philanthropic gesture by O'Reilly is a generous one but it doesn't make up for his many years of bullying, aggression and cuntish like behaviour.

Westboro Baptist Church, the controversial group that just won a free speech Supreme Court case related to picketing soldiers' funerals, says it is planning to protest at the funeral for seven Perry County children who died in a fire Tuesday night.

Ted Clouse, the father of the 7 children killed in a house fire Tuesday evening in Blain, Pa., works in the barn early Thursday morning. " I want to stay here on the farm, he said. "he farm was not the reason they died. My wife says she wants to leave.
"I'm baffled that they would choose this," said Perry County District Attorney Charles F. Chenot, III."This is a family that’s obviously apparently Christian in their beliefs and certainly shouldn't conflict with the beliefs of the Westboro Baptist Church."
Chenot said he will be alerting state police to the announcement, and it will mean there will be a law enforcement presence at the services, too.
Westboro's press release says the children's death is linked to the Supreme Court case, in which a York County father sued the church after it protested and made homophobic statements about his son, a Marine killed in Iraq.
Westboro blames society and the Perry County children's parents for their deaths.
A recent ruling in their favor says they can be in any public space. That means cemeteries that are open to the public, Chenot said.
"The bottom line is that they can’t interfere with the funeral itself," he said. "They can’t block people. If they made enough noise that they overpowered the minister ... they could be cited for disorderly conduct."
The church has threatened to picket military funerals in Perry County before, Chenot said. They did not show up to those funerals, and Chenot says he hopes that this, too, is an empty threat.
"I suspect this is just to get attention," he said. "That’s the only reason I can think they would want to attend this funeral. This group doesn’t include soldiers or homosexuals -- the groups they are usually barking about."
Still, a police presence will be assembled, just in case. "Will there be some vigilante justice? I hope not," Chenot said. "But I think the potential is there."
There is another White House petition being digitally signed by people. This is one to have Westboro Baptist church legally declared a hate group. I think that's a great idea!
The Westboro Church is a hateful bunch of bigots. I was ignorant as to what legally classifies as a "hate group" in a society that embraces freedom of speech/expression; had to look it up. Here's the definition:
A hate group is an organized group or movement that advocates and practices hatred, hostility, or violence towards members of a race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation or other designated sector of society. According to the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), hate groups' "primary purpose is to promote animosity, hostility, and malice against persons belonging to a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or ethnicity/national origin which differs from that of the members of the organization." The Southern Poverty Law Center's (SPLC) definition of a "hate group" includes those having beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics.
In the US, two main organizations that monitor intolerance and hate groups are the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the SPLC. Hate groups are also tracked by the FBI...
The Southern Poverty Law Center has designated several Christian groups as hate groups, including American Family Association, Family Research Council, Abiding Truth Ministries, American Vision, Chalcedon Foundation, Dove World Outreach Center and Traditional Values Coalition.
I think that the Westboro Church fits the criteria and hope that the petitioners succeed in getting it classified as a hate group. I do believe that its members should be able to protest and spew whatever they want (no crime there). But, if they're classified as what they really are, awareness will be increased and members of the public that disagree with their bullshit can counter-protest and cause them to retreat (as was done by people in Newton and by Anonymous when the haters tried to picket the Newton victims' funerals).
as them.
