I don't see anything wrong

I don't see anything wrong with the ad, except Bill O'Reilly was in the video before and after it. LOL

I hate him too, he is an arrogant assbag.

The thing is I dont hate

The thing is I dont hate people just because they are right wing...

 

I love G Gordon Liddy, I feel he at least comes from a stance of having some balls...I just see Billy O as a punk that crumbles as soon as the going gets tough.  He toes the company line solely because he is a bitch.

One thing about O'Reilly...whenever you think he's reached the absolute height of ridiculousness, he can prove you wrong. It's the only time he can prove anyone wrong, but still...

I'm not sure what to do

I'm not sure what to do with the people I encounter who love the guy. My family thinks he's great.  He was on the TV every time I went to physical therapy awhile back.

Watching The Colbert Report is a great anti-toxin for O'Reilly'Itis. Eye-wink

Colbert brings a smile to me

Colbert brings a smile to me in a time when I dont see much in the "media" to smile about.
I vote Colbert as the new god. Smiling
And your family thinks hes (dildo rielly) great?
Luckily my family either doesnt know of him,or says nothing.

Edited to clarify he.

I like when he suggests

I like when he suggests that this is offensive to peoples religious beliefs. If you look hard enough at every single thing written or put on TV of course you going to find something that is contradictory to your beliefs. This is called getting along with others, something they teach you in Pre-School. I can't believe things like this are up for debate anymore.

I think this does, slightly.

That got to me too. Given that the gods is of another race than human, and most of our major religions throughout history had a god mating with a human to make some sort of hero, I'd think most deities are OK with inter-species sex.

I think that Bill O' doesn't want to see pigs in an advert running during his show is because people might see the similarity.

Four legs good, two legs better.

 

 

But honestly, I think the commercial isn't offensive (To bill), bill just says it's offensive to cover up the fact that he is intolerant of things like condoms, and (Likely) planned parenthood.

Nice "Animal Farm" quote there Smiling

I agree with you. His reason for not liking the ad (puppet pigs) is patently absurd, and I do indeed believe that it is a cover for his intolerance of the other issues.

I didn't catch the offensive ad, was it to be shown after the condom ad?  I really don't see what was offensive.  Perhaps O'Reilly decided to become Jewish for a day and found the ad unkosher.  Maybe he was offended because of the lack of loofahs.  Or perhaps it's because it had the evil word "evolve'.  

If I created a condom commercial then O'Reilly would have something to complain about.  I'd show images of the effects of STDs including people ravashed with the scars of infection and people wasting away as they die of AIDS.

Thanks to Billo though this ad got seen by a couple million who would have otherwise never seen the ad.  However, will Billo go crazy over the remake of Charlotte's Web because it has a pig in it?
