Here's Countdown with Keith Olberman version:

I love how he tried to deny the event.:rotfl:

Seems the Irish still shouldn't be noted for their fondness of the blacks.:rotfl: :roll:

Bill O'Reilly = bad taste.

I think most Irish people would appreciate not being associated with a loud mouthed moron like Mr Bill O'Reilly.

Stealth Hunter 02-23-08 02:57 PM

Not the people or Ireland themselves. No, they have much better taste than fans of O'Reilly could ever show. I'd never degrade them on the same level as this imbecile.

It's in our Constitution.

Jeez :roll:

lynching party is a turn of phrase. No one would have batted an eyelid if he'd said "witchhunt" or something. Just an inopportune choice of words.

That Irish people have to be associated with Bill O'Reilly?

I agree; O'Reilly is technically guilty of nothing more than a poor choice of words. That said, given the context and the object of the statement, it was a very poor choice indeed.:down:

Oh, and think the title of this thread was also a poor choice of words. O'Reilly obviously used the term "lynching party" in a political context. He may be guilty of stupidity and/or intentionally stirring the pot, but he did NOT advocate literally lynching anyone.

The opposite, it's an Article of Disassociation :)

Bill O'Riley could USE a good lynching ! It would do him some good !

Stealth Hunter 02-23-08 06:05 PM

Better yet, we throw him into a crowd of gay, Protestant Englishmen and allow them to take control of the situation.

silentrunner 02-23-08 06:10 PM

It is easily understood that he did not mean it litealy, but due to O'Reilly's standard way of going about things he was definatly trying to stir something up.

Platapus 02-23-08 09:15 PM

God, I never in a million years would have though I would ever come to back up Bill O'Reilly but I have to.

It was, at worst, a poor choice of words.

I can not, in any way, imagine anyone interpreting his words to mean he wanted to lynch anyone. As a previous poster stated, Lynching party is the same as witchhunt in that he was referencing a group of people out to "get" someone.

It was a poor choice of words. Bill often says stupid things.

There is much to hate about Bill and what he says, but this is a non-news event

Bill is a disgrace to the broadcasting field. But then again he doesn't work for a broadcast station he works for FOX NOISE! which is a GOP OPERATIVE and PROPAGANDA commercial.

Looks to me like this is getting blown way out of proportion possibly... The septic/cynic in me is kinda saying if that guy was talking about a white person... nobody would have gone to town like they have.
