O'REILLY LOSES IT: Bill O'Reilly's

O'REILLY LOSES IT: Bill O'Reilly's nonsensical, deeply compromised commentary on "Passion of the Christ," was bad enough, especially the part in which he dismissed Mel Gibson's father as "some crazy old guy," when he surely knows Hilton Gibson has been publishing anti-Jewish, Holocaust-denying screeds for decades. Now Mr. Factor takes on the culture war and- I'm not kidding- he doesn't think President Bush has done enough to fight it! From his latest column:

President Bush doesn't like to talk about social issues like gay marriage and degenerate entertainment... most importantly, traditional Americans lack a strong leader on social issues. I mean, think about it. You have a conservative president in the White House who rarely engages these issues. So the secularists have the bully pulpit. And they're using it very effectively.

So sorry to hear that the president of the United States has abdicated his legal and moral authority to the producers of "Queer Eye For the Straight Guy." The president who wants anti-gay bigotry ensconced in the U.S. Constitution "doesn't like to talk about social issues?" Is O'Reilly living on another planet?
