"60 percent of what you say is crap."

Bill O'Reilly was on Letterman Tuesday night, still bullshitting about the alledged War on Christmas (a theme he will undoubtedly return to every November).

I finally watched the O'Reilly segment on Letterman today (I had it TIVO'd). Dave took O'Reilly to task for his made-up war and for his treatment of Cindy Sheehan and pretty much dismissed him as an ignorant bully.

Dave: "I have the feeling about 60 percent of what you say is crap."

Here's a transcript.

What is missing from the transcripts is the audience applauding everytime Dave rips Bill. Call it Dave's Liberal audience, but it was pretty obvious that O'Reilly had few fans in the audience. I doubt he'd return any time soon.

Funny thing is that the next day, Bill had two Fox analysts, Juan Williams and entertainment reporter Jean Wolfe, grade his Letterman appearance on the Factor and they praised him to high heaven, implying that he outshone Dave.


I'm Bill O'Reilly... the sun shines out of my ass!

What kind of fragile ego must he have to book guests simply to lavish praise onto him? But then I guess that's the Faux News standard: incestuous "journalists" appearing on each other's shows to congratulate themselves on their ignorance.

Today Bill Gates introduced Microsoft's answer to the iTunes Music Store, Urge. Naturally, it's not compatible with the iPod. I found it highly appropriate that he trooted out Justin Timberlake to tout the new service. Steve Jobs and Apple have U2... Bill Gates has Justin.

And doesn't the Urge logo remind you of Apple's Quicktime logo?
