Original article: Is Bill O'Reilly sorry now?

@ jhudson2

I'm just sayin, both are wrong and both should apologize.

But I've never seen an article by Carol (or any other liberal) titled, "Is The Group of 88 sorry now?"

I'm a libertarian. I don't have a taste for the US's partisan bombthrowing - it's so counterproductive.

Lets elect Obama, close our borders, bring home our troops, nationalize healthcare, and find some alternative energy? Anybody on board with that?

@ leftychris

thank you for your defense.

(it's no secret that i'm a poor writer) so, i guess what i'm trying to say is:

"He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby

become a monster"

Let's Put this Thread to Bed

What I've concluded about this article and these letters:

Salon readers really dislike Bill O'Reilly. Even if he saved a little old lady from drowing and adopted refugee children from a war-zone - Salon readers will always hate him (I read salon, i dislike him as well) -- (ex: go back and read the letter that talks about Bill anally raping himself with a butt-plug - fyi - you folks shouldn't stoop that low)

And, other than leftychris, I see no respect or even civility offered toward anyone who tries to think about the world without looking through the prism of political correctness and victimization. I respect your opinions, please return the courtesy.

Goodday.

double-play fiasco

alright. That play is completely a judgement call, so I can't say he should or should not be called out. I think you should let guys play, but, I've been upended enough to know that a line should be drawn somewhere.

And the debris delay! Fun!

People got arrested for that? They threw water on grass. Many folks have made a career out of that. You think grass just grows itself? In arizona?

What happened to the good old days? Someone would throw something on the field - it's never been a smart thing to do - and someone would grab them and throw them out of the park, and that was that. Now, we need to haul people to the clink, fingerprint, have a hearing.... lets spend our taxdollars elsewhere.

I would like to see Cincinnati go undefeated. Then a Buckeye/Bearcat national title game. America should be so lucky.

Broadsheet's new approach

Find something that conservative christian americans are doing - then ridicule and laugh.

How is this productive?

Some women want to be better housewives. I don't see why that's worthy of ridicule. If all of the same things were taught without knowing the Christian agenda - you all would be fine with it.

Have a nice weekend.

I'm going to pray on Sunday - who wants to make fun of me?

I've decided that the camera you refer to is one of the older HD cams, not as seamless. And Dice-K; don't his eyes remind you of a mute teddybear, overflowing with emotion, but he just can't speak - ready to cry or shout at any moment?

And Manny. I've long admired him as a hitter and baserunner. There is nothing sweeter than cranking one into the gap, loafing it out of the box, and beating the throw to second by a millisecond - without sliding. It will drive coaches insane, but it is pretty pimp. And, he typifies the cardinal rule of baseball: if you hit, you're above the law. Everything else be damned, you can rake.

Whoever said that he doesn't know what the count it when he's hitting - is an idiot. He may forget what the count was during a certain AB during a post-game interview, but, he knows when he's hitting. It's a little too hopefully niave to believe that he is so out of it, so manny, that he doesn't know the count when he's in the box.

And to all these people who get on hitters for celebrating their bombs, I heartily disagree with you. When you lay into a baseball and get absolutely all of it, and you know it's landing well beyond the wall, your first thought isn't: "well, we have lost 3 in a row, and we're down by a few runs, so it surely wouldn't be judicious or honorable for me to throw my hands up."

you just throw your hands up. Some stand around for a while. Others look to their bench. Others undo the batting gloves. It's your moment, to hell with everyone else. If everyone could hit bombs, we wouldn't have this perceived problem.

celebrating bombs

if the other team doesn't like it, they can put a fastball in your back. it's pretty simple.

beat the race drum!! (disclaimer: this subject line in no way meant alude to past, present, or future native americans and their use or disuse of leather drums)

alright, I'm chartering an ancient sea-faring ship to start removing non-native Americans from America. The voyage will be long and difficult, but well worth it.

First stop: Europe.

Other teams names through which I'm chanelling offense: Red Sox (I prefer blue), Devil Rays (i'm a fundie), Blue Jackets (slander toward U.S. sailors). etc...
