The only thing worse than sanctimonious judgmentalism is when it's accompanied by blatant hypocrisy.

In his latest column, right-wing pundit Bill O'Reilly launches a tirade against the sex-and-drugs culture of the 1967 "Summer of Love". He tells us that "thousands of young Americans spent the summer stoned and having sex with a variety of their compatriots. This led to an epidemic of overdose situations and social disease problems."

Maybe so, Bill, but they were willing participants -- unlike Andrea Mackris, whom you harrassed with unwelcome overtures about how you wanted to ply her with wine and then violate her with a loofa, a falafel, and whatnot.

Yo, Bill, you always allude to how "religious" you are. What was it that Jesus said? Oh, yeah: "Judge not, lest ye be judged."
