Last night, Bill O’Reilly discussed the “gay penguins” at a zoo in Germany with guest Dennis Miller. O’Reilly shocked Miller by being eminently tolerant of the penguins, saying the zoo should “leave the penguin alone” because “God made the penguin that way”:
O’REILLY: Number one, if the penguin’s gay, leave the penguin alone. God made the penguin that way and I agree — I mean, I’m not one of these guys who thinks you should be converting anybody to anything. If you’re that way, and you’re not hurting anybody, I think you and I agree, we’re libertarians. So who cares? … If they’re happy, they’re happy. That’s my philosophy.
Watch it:
If only O’Reilly were as tolerant of gay humans; alas, his record shows quite a different picture:
— O’Reilly complained that J.K. Rowling is making children “tolerant” of homosexuality.
– O’Reilly warned that if gay marriage were allowed, people could marry ducks, turtles, and dolphins.
– O’Reilly censored a photo of two men kissing.
– O’Reilly claimed J.K. Rowling is a “provocateur” for “the gay agenda” of “indoctrination.”
– O’Reilly was disgusted by a transgender couple, saying, “Imagine a poor kid getting born into that family.”
– O’Reilly was furious that “thousands of gay adults showed up and commingled with straight families” at a Padres game, and suggested that gay couples hugging were making “over-the-top displays.”
In O’Reilly’s world, gay penguins should be left alone, but gay people should be mocked, reviled, and censored.
So, if gay people just walked around in tuxedos all the time, do you think O’Reilly would ease up on them?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:04 pmWhat does BillO have to say about human-penguin relationships?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:04 pmWell, I think because even O’Reilly isn’t sick enough to lust for a penguin.
Too bad he can’t handle the man-lust simmering beneath his surface.
I never saw such a classic closet case.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:06 pm“O’Reilly Defends Gay Penguins: ‘God Made The Penguin That Way’”
lol Gay penguins? Good lord. BillO the clown is one sick pervert.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:06 pmThat’s why we call him (a la Keith) Billo the Clown.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:06 pmSidney Crosby???? ;>)
GO WINGS!!!
June 11th, 2009 at 3:07 pmGod made the penguin that way…
Does BillO believe that all penguins are gay?
And who’s that guy across from him? Looks like they stuffed some homeless dude in a suit.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:08 pmHmmm.. Is he saying that Gawd didn’t make gay people?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:08 pmI don’t care if O’Rally supports the gay Penguins or not.
I’m rooting for the Red Wings tomorrow night!
GO WINGS!
;-)
June 11th, 2009 at 3:09 pmHmmm. or is O’Biley secretly bashing nuns?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:09 pmWhoops, Lividlib beat me to it!
My bad.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:09 pm“O’Reilly Defends Gay Penguins: ‘God Made The Penguin That Way’”
No no no. It’s a CHOICE, dammit! The penguins CHOSE their gay hedonistic lifestyle!
And as soon as bitblt gets here to prove it with biblical citations, you’ll all see that.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:09 pmYou beat me to it Livid!!!!
So this was more newsworthy than the Holocaust shooting?!
June 11th, 2009 at 3:10 pmI can just see the coach of the Pittsburgh hockey team standing on a podium, stating
June 11th, 2009 at 3:11 pm“We are not gay. We have never been gay…”
ralph,
June 11th, 2009 at 3:12 pmAnd the only way to NORMALIZE these sick, perverted penguins is for some heterosexual intervention.
I’m thinking porn (Behind the Flightless Fowl) and herrings.
Obviously BillO the Schmuck dresses up like a penguin when he attends his local conservative yiffing party.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:14 pmBurgess Meredith did wear a purple top hat…
June 11th, 2009 at 3:16 pmWell, consistency has never been one of O’Reilly’s strong points. I’m waiting for him to deny ever denouncing gay people in any way, shape or form.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:16 pmPervert Falafel Man . .
One big hypocrite, compassionate conservative since Dr. Tiller’s murder, eh?

Or… herring porn (Hot Spawners XIII). Of course you’d have to make sure the herrings aren’t gay too.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:17 pmPenguins/Shmguins, who really cares?
O/T: according to Yahoo News, Leon Panetta, Obama’s man now heading the CIA, claims that Osama Bin Laden is somewhere in Pakistan. This is a lie. Osama has been dead, dead, dead for over seven (7) years now. He passed away of natural causes in December 2001. He is buried in eastern Afghanistan in the mountains. See http://www.whatreallyhappened.com. Those audio and video tapes of OBL were Made in USA.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:17 pmI’m shocked. I didn’t know that O’Reilly was that much into penguins. I’ll be damned.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:19 pmToo bad Gawd didn’t make O’Reilly a penguin or some other animal that couldn’t speak.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:19 pmHas anyone checked Bill’s bipolar meds lately?

But you can’t cure the gay penguins…. if you did that, it may disrupt the ecosystem… what would the gay sea lions eat then?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:22 pmI’d like to hear Darlyy’s head to the hells explanation of this. How could his Gawd make a gay penguin?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:23 pmOK! I’ll say it…..pengulingus….now…..can we move on?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:25 pmYou almost have to give Billo credit. I do believe he is the first person to publicly proclaim species specific homophobia.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:27 pmBill apparently has more in common with the extreme PETA folks than I thought, i.e. animals have more rights than humans. Who knew?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:30 pmtoo bad bill-o the dil-do didn’t display as much compassion towards gay humans.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:32 pmDoes this mean BillO thinks it’s OK to marry a penguin?
June 11th, 2009 at 3:33 pmGod also made jackasses sexual harrassers apparently.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:34 pmEl Bruce, apparently Billo was seen at a local jewelry store sizing an engagement ring for a size six flipper..!
June 11th, 2009 at 3:36 pmMaybe Bill has a crush on the gay, tuxedo clad head waiter at his favorite restaurant.
Either that or he has been spending too much time down at the aviary.
Stranger things have happened.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:37 pmAmazing that in the animal world, bisexual and homosexual behavior is accepted as natural and the other animals in the community don’t judge or shun them.
Good thing we are evolved and enlightened enough to pass judgement! Sorry, BillO, didn’t mean to use a form of the word “evolved”.
PEACE
June 11th, 2009 at 3:38 pmIn O’Reilly’s world, gay penguins should be left alone, but gay people should be mocked, reviled, and censored.
Egg-zactly.
Falaffel Bill is objectively FOR the birds.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:39 pmNow we know….Do’s O;lilie have a birth certificate or was he hatched from an egg.? P. B. & J
June 11th, 2009 at 3:41 pmO’Reilly must not have anything to report on what, a 10 million dollar waste of money. He’s getting nuttier by the minute.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:43 pmJust remember, folks. When Dennis Miller’s in the same segment as O’Reilly, Bill thinks he can be as funny as Miller. This is a blatant attempt for him to try sarcastic, time-for-the-opposites humor.
And since it was the Dennis Miller segment, it was completely unfunny.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:46 pmSo…is Billo “humanizing” gay penguins now??
I’m so confused. :o/
June 11th, 2009 at 3:48 pmThe story is just a ruse to avoid talking about the Tiller case and the museum shooting.
June 11th, 2009 at 3:48 pmYou mean Bill’s OK with these penguins incubating an egg and becoming (gasp!) GAY PARENTS??? Doesn’t he worry about the fate of the penguin chick?
/snark
June 11th, 2009 at 3:50 pm…I…I am at a loss for words.
I just want to know how the poor penguins feel about being endorsed by O’RLY. I’m sure they would be thrilled if they had any inkling of what was going on.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:00 pmRemember, this is the same guy who stated that it’s not worth the airtime to even talk about the Holocaust museum shooting. That’d be the guy talking about gay penguins up there. Yeah, him.

He is.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:01 pmAnd the phase for today is:
“Cognitive dissonance”.
Can you say it? I knew you could.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:01 pmThe falafel sexual predator pervert Bill O dresses up at night as a penguin and has gay sex with Dennis Miller.
So, no wonder he approves of gay penguins.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:04 pmReminds me of the Gordon Gecko quote from Wall Street:
That’s the thing you gotta remember about WASPs – they love animals, they can’t stand people.
While I don’t think the quote applies in general, I think Billo is the stereotype it was based on (even if he is Irish).
June 11th, 2009 at 4:06 pmO’Reilly Defends Gay Penguins: ‘God Made The Penguin That Way’
Cats and dogs all over will be so happy to hear this.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:14 pmWhat kind of God would make penguins gay and make people stupid?
“and he who made kittens put snakes in the grass…”
June 11th, 2009 at 4:16 pmAnother conservative contender giving Doug Feith a run for his money as the stupidest fcuking guy on the planet.
Quite a ginormous republican field vying for the title.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:24 pmThank GOD Bill-O, the ultra sharp uber journalist elite czar of all things important is reporting this extremely news worthy stuff that keeps the world whirling in its alternate reality.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:25 pmIm just kidding brothabill-o, if it makes you happy to report on how GOD made a few penguins gay you just keep on doing so.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:38 pmBillo is so deep in the closet, that he probably thinks he’s the only straight man/thing left in America!
June 11th, 2009 at 4:39 pmDoes this mean I can marry a penguin?
June 11th, 2009 at 4:40 pmThe trolls must be at their “Roeder & von Brunn are Heroes” parties.
June 11th, 2009 at 4:42 pmDr. Matt, I hope you get to participate in one helluva celebration downtown Detroit!
Me?
I’ll be home watching the game, with a couple whose wife just happens to be a (gay) Penguins fan.
Can you say “six pack” bet?
Have fun!!!
June 11th, 2009 at 4:43 pmI wonder if these penguins have a gay agenda…
June 11th, 2009 at 4:59 pmActually, Billo, being your average Christian, must certainly follow the belief of a singular male god.
A singular male god that doesn’t mess around with any female gods.
Sounds kinda gay to me.

June 11th, 2009 at 6:05 pmBut you see, O’Reilly isn’t sexually fixated on the penguins.
June 11th, 2009 at 6:20 pmdo penguins tea bag?
June 11th, 2009 at 6:47 pmRE: Bill O’Reilly & Dennis Miller
MY COMMENT: I can’t decide which of them I loathe the most!
June 11th, 2009 at 7:07 pmYou mean O’Reilly doesn’t mind that Tango — the female chick incubated and raised by Roy and Silo (the celebrated pair of gay male chinstrap penguins at the Central Park Zoo here in NYC) — has herself paired off with another female chinstrap penguin now that she’s reached adulthood? I’d be inclined to think that O’Reilly and others of his ilk would cite this as evidence that homosexuality can’t be the result of genetics (since she came from a neglected egg and has no biological relationship to either Roy or Silo as far as anyone knows) and that children raised by gay or lesbian couples are more likely to become gay or lesbian themselves.
Frankly, I’m a little confused and curious about how that worked out myself — and I’m saying this as someone who’s wholly in favor of gay marriage and who doesn’t believe that sexual orientation has anything to do with either choice or poor parenting. (Personally, I’m inclined to agree with those who believe that all human beings are born with the capacity to be bisexual and that social and/or religious conditioning is what keeps most people from expressing it — especially since there is, if memory serves, scientific evidence to suggest that life experiences have the potential to influence brain chemistry and/or neural connections as well as the reverse.)
June 11th, 2009 at 7:40 pmOh yeah, Bill O’Reilly and Dennis Miller: HUGE libertarians. Uh huh.
Just like Bill Maher!
GD, these people are such tools.
June 11th, 2009 at 7:54 pmOkey. Minus one out of 1500 plus one (humans) to go:

Gay penguins are actually gay people that chose to be penguins.
June 11th, 2009 at 8:44 pmSo by BO’s logic – as per J.K. Rowling – he himself is responsible for an increased tolerance for badly written porn. Oh wait, since nobody actually buys BO’s, I guess he’s responsible for less tolerance of misogynistic “erotica” written by twisted old homophobes.
My bad….
June 11th, 2009 at 10:15 pmO’Reilly: ” I think you and I agree, we’re libertarians.”
Since when is O’Reilly a libertarian? He usually calls himself an Independent (as in not affiliated with any political party).

*************************************************************
I thought that nuns viewed themselves as already being married (at least symbolically) — “brides of Christ” and all that. I don’t know if they still do this — but if memory serves, in the old days, they even wore wedding rings to represent this.
I don’t know that the Catholic bishops could technically object to the idea of a nun being married since they’re at least symbolically considered to be “brides of Christ” (and even used to wear wedding rings to represent this, although I don’t know for certain whether they still do or not). However, I think it’s safe to say that they’d definitely object to the idea of a nun committing bigamy!

Well, I don’t need O’Reilly on TV pushing the penguin agenda on my kids. Being a penguin is not a lifestyle choice that my religion condones. If you want to be a penguin in private then I suppose I can’t stop you, but quit shoving your penguinism in my face.
June 12th, 2009 at 1:43 amO’Reilly’s also a regular subscriber to “Man on Penguin” magazine.
June 12th, 2009 at 9:28 amGay penguins! Now that’s a topic that Dennis Miller is suited to discuss. Leave the serious stuff to others. Dennis’s gig at Fox as resident funnyman/political pundit has been usurped by Glen Beck anyway.
June 12th, 2009 at 11:01 amThere are gay animals, O’Riley is right.
