"Propagating ignorance" is putting it lightly. I prefer to call it farming stupidity . . . for incredible profit that allows BillO to live in the most liberal blue-state metropolis in the world instead of some shit-hole right-wing suburb outside of Dallas -- where his fans live.

@ChillbearLatrigue: I think it's fair to say that when dealing with the evils of revolution (a word tossed around a bunch on both side) both the far left and far right cancel each other out. That said, in terms of individuals undertaking illegal and violent action against soft targets here in the good old U.S.A., I think the right has bloodier hands. Oklahoma City anyone?

@takeouteurotrash: It's late and way off subject so I'll keep it short. I believe that Hitler was the worst monster this world has ever seen. If you want to claim him as a hard righter that's fine. The Soviet Empire claimed something like 90 million lives in their endeavors to create a classless society without personal property. I don't know what the numbers on China are, but I'm sure they can't be good. Democracies seem to hold the high road here.

@ChillbearLatrigue: The soviets did nothing of the sort. Theirs was an out-and-out tyranny which bore little to no resemblance to the state Marx and Engels wanted to establish. In fact, if you'll recall, Stalin purged the genuine Russiane left as he was setting up his dictatorship.

Three members of the Weather Underground died while constructing a bomb (it went off), but when they were going around setting off bombs, they also provided evacuation warnings beforehand. (btw: ELF has never killed anyone either.)

Well, it's not popular to admit, but I don't think O'Reilly is to blame for this. His coverage of Tiller was sort of dickish, as per usual, but calling the guy "Tiller the Baby Killer" doesn't mean he wanted him dead. He's just a TV blowhard, and TV blowhards like to trash people they disagree with.

If one of Olbermann's Worst Persons In the World were killed, would we be pointing the finger at him? Hell, if Bush had been assassinated, would we have accepted the blame that FOX would surely have heaped on the anti-Bush crowd? No, even though Bush caused the deaths of 10,000s of Iraqi civilians, and I have regularly applauded the speakers who have pointed this out.

Debates can get can heated. I don't think the participants should be blamed for those lunatics listening in the crowd who take the argument too far.

I don't understand why this blathering man is anti-abortion. He doesn't strike me as somebody who really gives a shit about abortion, women or the situation of poor children in America. If anything, this fucker should be promoting free abortions for poor women (especially blacks and Hispanics): that would be more consistent with this fucker's world view.

Calling Tiller a killer is cowardly, for if he called him a murderer, like you know he wants to, O'Reilly would surely go to the poorhouse for libel and defamation.

Do O'Reilly, Limbaugh, Palin, et al know that a lot of aborted fetuses would've grown up to be black people and Latinos? That might cause them to rethink their positions.

@wholenuther: Hahah OMG LOL. Yeah if they hated black people so much maybe they should give them free abortions, not oppose abortion like so many do. Obviously white people hate black people, that's why so many of them use the racism inherrent in abortion statistics to denounce it. Oh look, as evidence I submit and article written by a White pastor from North Carolina doing just that. You people need to get out more.

@pilf: Actually, the label relates back to the historical fact that abortion was illegal in the Roman era because it was killing a Roman citizen protected by Roman law. They had the technology back then, but it was illegal. And now you know.

@jodark:

To clarify, abortion wasn't illegal in the Roman empire. It was illegal for a woman to have an abortion without her husband's permission. Your husband owned your body and the fetus, so whatever he said was ok. They also had infanticide (by leaving babies out in the woods), again, as long as the pater familias was down with it. They were just a little more honest about the abortion debate coming down to ownership over women's bodies.

For the record, this is the first time the class I took in law school, Roman Law: abortion, homosexuality and the death penalty, has come in handy. Now I'm so glad I never took bankruptcy law.
