Bill O'Reilly has given us plenty of evidence down through the years that he is indeed a vicious dolt, but he has outdone himself this time.As part of a rant against Michelle Obama he said this:
"And I don't want to go on a lynching party against Michelle Obama unless there's evidence, hard facts, that say this is how the woman really feels. If that's how she really feels -- that America is a bad country or a flawed nation, whatever -- ... that's legit. We'll track it down."
"Lynching?" "Party?" There's no way he could not know exactly what he was saying or threatening. There's no way he could not know the history of "lynching parties" in the United States - that in the 80 years following the Civil War, over 4,000 blacks were lynched by white mobs.
Notice, too, he not only throws out those inflamatory terms, but goes on to say that a lynching party would be justified if she really felt the way she said she felt!
Perhaps it's time for O'Reilly to step down for he has most certainly overstepped the bounds of decency - big time!

He has a huge audience, which is scary. If he were not listened to, he would change his spots quickly.
