Overreacting or, Guys, Seriously Fuck You

Let's look at the anatomy of a bald-faced lie. First off, Jesse Jackson made an inconsequential comment about Barack Obama, saying he "wanted to cut his nuts off" with a smirk on his face and a crude gesture. Why is this inconsequential? Because it was obvious that 1) HE WAS FUCKING JOKING and 2) HOLY SHIT IT WAS A JOKE and 3) OH MY GOD ARE YOU THAT STUPID IT WAS A JOKE and 4) he said it when he thought he was not being filmed, which I'm positive unlocks all sorts of Pandora's Boxes (which sounds like a kick-awesome moving company) for all media personalities. One of those people is Bill O'Reilly, who I would bet has called Hillary Clinton a cunt in private. Seriously, I'd bet like $5,000 on that.

Anyway, here's Mr. O'Reilly



It is pretty telling that he spends the first half of the segment attempting to explain that he's not going to use conjecture about why Jackson might have said that, only to go on and do nothing but assume he knows why Jackson said it. If you don't know the circumstances, you probably shouldn't run with it. If you do know the circumstances, and the circumstances were "assumed privacy", again, probably shouldn't go with it. Oh my, the discourse of our fair nation.
