Bill O’Reilly Continues to Defend Christmas… will be joined in his crusade by Dennis Miller
Hm. According to the Fox News website, for tonight’s “O’Reilly Factor”: Enough Already! Dennis Miller joins Bill to sound off on the “assault on Christmas” and … [blah blah blah Iraq blah blah blah anti-war cowards]”
I can’t quite figure out what the hell happened to Dennis Miller. Placing himself as a Super-Hawk and an Iraq War Defender is one thing, but why the heck is he now “Defending Christmas” from the “Evil Secularists”? (Christopher Hitchens wouldn’t do such a thing, I don’t believe.)
I think I started to find Dennis Miller tedious when he co-anchored Monday Night Football, where I felt his schtick became schtickier and schtickier. (Take an athlete’s name, and make a reference to a famous figure from history who shares his name… clumsily inject this reference when the athlete does anything at all. Feign spontainety.)
Currently, I muse: Zell Miller, Judith Miller, Dennis Miller. What’s with the Millers?
In the meantime, I’ll just have to content myself with Bill O’Reilly’s latest defense of all that is holy with Christmas:
“Every company in America should be on its knees thanking Jesus for being born. Without Christmas, most American businesses would be far less profitable. More than enough reason for business to be screaming ‘Merry Christmas.’ But many will not. They’re afraid of being attacked by secular forces. It is now time to draw the line, ladies and gentlemen. We must decide whether we value our heritage or not. … George Soros and Peter Lewis, the money men behind the secular curtain, have financed a number of websites which routinely attack those with whom they disagree in the most vile ways. Most mainstream media avoid the far-left smear sites. But some help them. In the coming weeks we will expose those media which pass along the vicious personal attacks. We’ve already listed some of them on BillOReilly.com and we hope you steer clear of those organizations.”
“If traditional America rises up and punishes mainstream media, which furthers the cause of Soros and the ACLU, they will lose. The defamation pipeline that has been cleverly devised. will collapse. If Christmas in America can be marginalized, ANY tradition can be, including marriage and the way you raise your kids. …”
Hm. Bill O’Reilly composes another list. Just like Santa Clause, that bastion of traditional Christmas. (And, yes, yesterday I saw somewhere the standard yard with the Jesus – themed nativity scene right next to Santa with his 9 reindeer.) He’s making several lists. One of companies that greet you with “Merry Christmas.” Another of companies that greet you with “Happy Holidays”. And another of his political enemies. Happy Holidays, Everybody!
(In other newts, Sean Hannity fights against the “Holiday Tree”… details found here.)
