Telling choices of verbs.

Bill O'Reilly says he only wants to lynch Michelle Obama if she really thinks America has flaws. Not in any other case, but he's certainly going to check, he says, and THEN the lynching can proceed.

I just need to know WHO used the word "lynch" first.

They need shot.

[elffin.livejournal.com]

Shooting is too good for the like of Bill O'Reilly.

According to the transcript, it was, naturally, O'Falafel himself.

I mean, I KNOW they're looking for anything to crucify these candidates...but I thought it was ALSO a point of pride for Americans to be able to say whatever in the hell they wanted?

*ahem* Sorry.

I just think this is ridiculous.

My reposting of the article has nothing to do with the Noise Machine looking for anything it can find to smear Obama, and everything to do with Falafel-boy's immediate latching on to the word "lynch" as what he wants to do to the black woman.

It's a common trend with him, and he gets away with it because his fanbase are the unashamed, terrified racists who make up the remaining Republican voting bloc.

Ah yes. Well...I found the first thing that caught my eye was the word "lynch".

I just couldn't believe how some people say that word so flippantly. Yes, I'm a bit of a hippy-tree-hugger, but SERIOUSLY. Think about what you say.

argh

I think he used it in a calculating fashion to draw attention to himself.

Like any clown, he makes pratfalls so that he can laugh all the way to the bank.

[elffin.livejournal.com]

Clearly I have missed something. Falafel?

I could google it. But why, when I'm certain that you will inject the anecdote with charm and warmth?

This points to #4 on this list (http://politicalhumor.about.com/od/billoreilly/a/oreillyquotes.htm).

We think he meant ‘loofah’, but it's impossible to be sure. (http://politicalhumor.about.com/b/2006/02/28/oreilly-vs-olbermann-the-falafel-guy-fatwa.htm)

Re: Woo hoo! Lynching party!

Dude? Lynching "memorabilia" photos with no warning = not cool for the readers. Shit like that should be linked to, not hotlinked, with a NSFW/Not Safe For Lunch warning.

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

While sexually harassing a nonconsenting employee by phone, he suggested she tell him all about her shower practices, wanting her to describe how she rubbed herself with falafel.

It's almost certain he meant a loofah.

[theweaselking.livejournal.com]

Oh and: We all know about it because she, tired of O'Reilly's endless involuntary phone sex sessions and having already been informed that she would be fired if she didn't participate, was taping the call in preparation for her lawsuit.

i can see your point of view.

[peristaltor.livejournal.com]

Not just a lynching, but a "lynching party," as if this planned murder should be undertaken with levity and merriment.

He. Must. Be. Imus-ized.

[torrain.livejournal.com]

I never needed that image oh god.

[elffin.livejournal.com]

I knew of the lawsuit but not the content of the call.

OhGod.
