Bill O'Reilly is on yet another freakout over Markos Moulitsas, founder of Daily Kos, after Kos made fun of him for a temper tantrum he threw when he worked at Inside Edition. O'Reilly says Newsweek hiring Kos is just like hiring David Duke because he runs a "hate site." And after he did this, all of O'Reilly's little wannabe-thug minions started sending Kos email that shows quite clearly where the hatred is really coming from. A few samples:
You are a queer little fucking retard!! Stay gay you cock sucker!!
How eloquent.
Hey asshole if I ever run across you in public I am going to really gonna give my best attempt to beat the living dogshit out you!!! Especially if I see you fly through DFW or if I go through O'Hare and run into you there. You suck!!!!
Hmmm. Which is the hate site, exactly, Mr. O'Reilly? Wait, there's more...
ive given ur actual city, state address to al qaida websites...i do believe they will be taking you out very shortly and not a soul will care...not even ur mother......now i know why u dont go driving around or walking around in public...ur the skinny, nerdy high school kid who gets punched out for just being stupid looking and im sure that would still happen....after all, cowards are always cowards....
Very kind and loving. And it goes on and on and on.

Such an outpouring of Christian love and charity! (After all, aren't all repub voters/O'Reilly supporters good little Christians?) How can we POSSIBLY stand up to that?!?!?

"...cowards are always cowards..."
Yes. Yes, they are. Especially the Wingnut Commandos, 51st Keyboard Squadron.

I know it's been pointed out many times, but I'm constantly amazed at the bile that Christians have. Such a lovely religion.

Here's how you put O'Reilly in his place:

I thought right wing crazies were trying to make gay people straight? Which is it?

While it warms my heart to see such an eloquent outpouring of that good ol'Christian Love directed towards Mr. Moulitsas, the thought that the people composing these missives actually vote chills me to the bone.
And did that one quote seem to imply cooperating with Al-Qaeda in order to take out Markos? Where's the dept. of Homeland Security when you need them.
Has the divide really grown so massive that some on the right actually see liberals as a greater threat to this country than Al-Qaeda?
And they vote! *shudder*

I love it when they can't get their basic grammar down:
"Fuck you your gay!"

Do any of you think that the "calm", "open minded" users of DailyKos aren't sending the same type of e-mails to O'Reilly? My take is that both sides are equally as guilty in this war of vile e-mails and phone messages.

Got any samples of the e-mails the daily Kos readers are sending to O'Reilly?
Posted by: Seraph | May 19, 2008 12:28 PM
You know, yoshi, that O'Reilly is a joke to most of us, right? The threats he gets from the lefties probably amount to: "Enjoy this time, Bill-o, since soon you'll be a forgotten footnote in the annals of broadcast history." And tell me that's not true?
Lefties call Bill-o a demagogue and shill. Bill-o calls Kos a Nazi and Klansman.
You really don't see the difference?

I keep noticing how prevalently homosexuality factors into these people's insults. When they can't demolish the other side's arguments with logic, their only resort is: "Yeah? Well your [sic] GAY!!!" Priceless. Seventh-graders are so cute when they attempt to argue. Their focus on sexuality is so much more sophisticated than the first grade equivalent of "Yeah? Well your [sic] a doodyhead!!!"
Posted by: Sadie Morrison | May 19, 2008 3:44 PM
that's really a rather lowbrow thing for Kos to be doing, poking fun of the only thing Bill O'Reilly knows how to do.
Posted by: Nomen Nescio | May 19, 2008 3:58 PM
I always thought that the tu quoque was the hollowest response to criticism. But now I see that the I think maybe tu quoque is even more vapid.

Isn't it hilarious that a grown man like Mr. O'Reilly is trying to get into a name calling match with someone on the internet? Hilarious, and pathetic.
Maybe he'll throw some rocks at him next.

O'Reilly complaining about "hate" is like Larry Flynt complaining about pornography.
Posted by: daniel rotter | May 19, 2008 8:49 PM
So, when is Billy going after KO? Olbermann has punked O'fuckwad so many times (with a much larger audience than Daily Kos) that it IS even funny!

Bill O'Reilly is Mr Mackey's hate-filled twin.

Hey, waitafugginminute, I thought the LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! were in cahoots with The Terrorists®. Why on Earth would The Terrorists® want to take out the LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS! LIBS!?

You mean the US government can tap your phone, "listen in" on internet traffic, and they still can't find Osama bin Ladan?
Bill's wingnut "friends" seem to be able to find (and read) Al-Quada's website with ease. why don't they track Bill and his "friends"? Simple -DJ
