I used to hate Bill O'Reilly. I used to watch Fox News just to see what kind of crap he was spewing out. I like to get the other side's thoughts so I can argue against them intelligently when the opportunity arises.

I see now the error of my ways.

When I want "the other side's" arguments I should get it from those in the know, not from moron, blowhard pundits. His show is as much a news show as the Op/Ed section of any newspaper. It's more sauce and less substance. "No Spin Zone" is clearly as Orwellian as any other title for anything BushCo has pumped out in these six years.

This man is as much an authority as my bowl of Cap'n Crunchberries, for all I know.

The following quote is from an article written in response to Bill O'Reilly's asinine comments about San Francisco

Let Us Blow Up Bill O'Reilly

"In a way, we should be grateful for [Bill] O'Reilly and [Pat] Robertson and [Rush] Limbaugh and [Ann] Coulter and their slime-slinging ilk. They live in those black and nasty psycho-emotional places, so we don't have to. They show us how ugly we can be, how poisonous and ill, so we may recoil and say, Whoa, you know what? I think I need to be more gentle and less judgmental and kinder to those I love. Bill O'Reilly works an inverse effect on anyone with a vibrant and active soul -- he makes us better by sucking all the grossness into himself and blowing it out via a TV channel no one of any spiritual acumen really respects anyway."

Excerpt from above linked article by Mark Morford, San Francisco Gate columnist

I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I never thought about it that way, but that man's show really is poison. When I watched O'Reilly I became him. I was always his political and philosophical opposite, but I became his attitude, his rancor. I don't need that, and neither does political debate in general.

Thank you Mr. Morford for loosing me from the bonds of stressful and wrong tactics.
