"I don't see a difference between (Arianna) Huffington and the Nazis."
"What's the difference between the Ku Klux Klan and Arianna Huffington?"
"There's no difference between what Huffington and Nazis do."
"The whole (The Huffington Post) is a sewer."
Even Mary Katherine Hamm, the wing conservative editor of Townhall.com found herself cringingly disagreeing with Bill.
My question for all the lawyers out there: Does Arianna have recourse? That is, of course, if she is not like the Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan?
Ah, the loverly Bill O'Reilly... proving once again, and beyond a shadow of a doubt, that microscopic algae is not the lowest form of life.

One of the signs that a country has slipped down the slope to tyranny is that those who weild influence and control, exhibit the same traits which they accuse their adversaries of.

If we lived in an earlier age - in a small village for example, this person would be the village idiot, dressed in rags covered with snot and drool, babbling to himself while playing in the dung pile at the edge of town... No sane citizen would pay any attention to him. People would simply dismiss his antics by saying: "oh him... he's always doing that, trying to get attention"
We would do well to follow that custom. He's an object of pity and scorn, In any modern nation with a decent public health system... he'd be institutionalized.

Comparing Huffpo to the KKK isn't the most accurate comparison, as far as I'm concerned. But he is absolutely on the mark in pointing out that Huffington Post is a hate-spewing disgrace of a website. Says something about your core audience when you keep having to delete comments or just close the comment section completely.

I know this sounds a bit strange coming from someone who reads OPEDNEWS, but if not for mental giants like Bill O'Reilley we wouldn't know just how ignorant and dangerous the right can get. Unbelieveable, I know, but there are actually people(?) who listen to and believe pond slime like Billy Boy!
