I don't care where it comes from or who makes the statement it should not be considered a slip of the tongue or the brain. These statements are calculated and intended. They are intended to marginalize those who disagree for any reason and to shut down dialogue and communication which is the life-blood of democracy and tolerance.

However, I think this article is misleading. OReilly's words sound inflamitory and irresponsible when they are quoted in the transcript and the headline. However, if you listen to the video, it's clear that the remarks were lighthearted, and made in jest. Tony Snow was laughing as Bill spoke, and frankly, so was I. I understand that you printed a transcript. But you did focus on certain statements, and without indicating that O'Reilly was joking, an impression was created that was unfair, and out of context. O'Reilly is a creep. But there's no need to misrepresent him or smear him to make that point. He demonstrates his creepiness just fine on his own, and, imo, in this article you're stooping to his level. I am no fan of Bill O’Reilly, to say the least.
