Did you know that gay men like to show their affection for each other through kissing? And that they don’t find this activity embarrassing?
I know quite a newsflash. Now the below clip contains Bill O’Reilly getting weirded out that pictures have surfaced of a gay contestant of American Idol kissing another man. I know: horror, upon horror. O’Reilly seems convinced that these pictures have doomed – DOOMED – this guy’s chances of winning on American Idol. I mean, there’s no way that a gay pop singer can succeed? America won’t stand for that. Boys kissing boys is gross. Hetro kissing is ok but what’s really awesome is two girls kissing – which Bill clearly agrees.
Honestly, the real problem is just PDA in general – yes, even lesbian kissin’ – especially if pictures of it surface on the internet. I can speak to this from personal experience. A picture of my girlfriend kissing me recently appeared on the internet and ruined my life – I’m shunned by my peers and am on the verge of failing out of grad school. If only I hadn’t allowed that unfortunate shot to be snapped!
Ladies and gentlemen, Bill O’Reilly is doing a public service to us all – kissing is gross and should be kept behind close doors.
Liberals current love of Shep Smith is sort of funny. Just like the last conservative-that-liberals-love Joe Scarborough, Smith will go back on the reservation eventually. And it’ll be back to normal and we’ll have to find some other contrary conservative to praise.
Some poor soul liveblogged Fox News’ election coverage from 5:15 a.m. until 11:02 p.m. It’s actually pretty funny and worth partially reading. I warn you though that the constant stream of bullshit starts to have kind of a numbing effect on you pretty quickly, and you’re just having the information relayed to you. It reminds me of a Washington Post magazine article early this year where journalist Gene Weingarten needlessly subjected himself to 24 uninterrupted hours of news coverage.
Both stunts are kind of like “Super Size Me,” or maybe a David Blaine stunt, in that the health risks probably aren’t worth gaining the information we all already knew.
