O’rilley is an ass, and as such, deserves to be mocked.

Stephen Colbert is a National Treasure.

Every time O’Reilly, Hannity, or some other right-wing blowhard has to defend himself from being lampooned and shown up, and bluster and bloviate even harder, Colbert wins one for us.

“O’Reilly has boasted that both Erik Prince, the former CEO of the notorious Blackwater USA security firm, and Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger endorsed his plan.”

Endorsed by two war criminals…that’s some plan!

Smells a little of desperation to remain relevant on the part of O’Reilly, doesn’t it?

What is it about Colbert and Stewart that Faux Noise doesn’t get? They are satirists. It’s what they do. They don’t front themselves as ‘news organizations’, although sometimes those two and John Oliver do a better job of investigative journalism than Faux does.

What is it about these guys that scares Faux so much?

Well, I’d be scared if I were Fox. Stewart eviscerates them over and over again for being completely hypocritical and incoherent, and Stewart has the video archive to show that unmercifully. With O’Reilly and Colbert, you’ve got a literally brilliant person lampooning a guy who really isn’t even very smart—somewhere in the bright-normal range, but no more. It’s just no contest, but O’Reilly’s too dumb to see it. It’s like Yosemite Sam getting blown up and otherwise trounced by Bugs Bunny daily in Tartarus forever.

Sounds great Bill. We’ll finance it by taxes on the 1%. Shithead.

Dipshit O’Reilly’s plan is to simply funnel hundreds of billions of dollars to Blackwater (the modern equivilent of the East Indian Trading Company) that will then “misplace” or otherwise loose track of the meney then ask the U.S. military to take over after they don’t even make a cursory effort.

You know, Machiavelli had a lot to say about mercenaries…and none of it was good.

I believe O’Reilly thinks he had a great idea, but it really sucks. Ground wars are won with logistics. Just who is going to supply that 25,000 super man strike force or does Bill expect them to steal what they need to survive from the locals like ISIL?

I have no idea why the media is always clamoring to give Bill O"Reilly the spotlight. Nor why they validated his plan to go after ISIS the way they did. I saw him on one of the Sunday shows, with George Stephanoplulous practically rubbing his feet while he was shilling some book about Patterson and talking up this so-called plan.

Truly. I don’t understand it. He should be happy that he’s getting this attention. He should be happy that Kissinger and Erik Prince (and he said Patterson would too if he were alive) endorsed his strategy. Yet he’s getting his falafel all in a wad because a comedian poked fun at him? Seriously? What a fucking baby.

Imagine if Rachel Maddow acted like this.

“Liberal” media my ass.

Why, MURCA, of course…

…at a substantial discount to our Blackwater benefactors, as well!

Hey, maybe he can get Rumsfeld and Cheney on-board, too. You know, really get some star power going.

[“Mr. Colbert and others of his ilk have no bleepin’ clue how to fight the jihad. They don’t know anything," the Fox News host said on “The O’Reilly Factor.”]

Unlike the 5-Star General O’Reilly…the master “strateeegereeist’”!
bwwahaahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Can’t wait for Colbert’s response…It should be EPIC!

O’Reilly and Colbert-2 fake news shows. One is funny and one is just sad.

If you are arguing with a comedian/satirist you have already lost the argument.

Good to know that Bill O stays up to watch the show.

Colbert is clearly in O’Gasbag’s head. And it is soooo funny. It is amazing that just sitting in front of a TV camera can suddenly make someone expert in everything.

Ahmed Chalabi is also totally on board with Gunga O’Reilly’s vision and if the U.S. will give him $500,000,000 then he will start working on some background stuff that may be hard to understand from the outside, but will definitely be beneficial. Eric Prince would like his 40 pallets of unmarked $100 bills sent to an isolated landing strip in New Guinea, and Gunga O will settle for a 110% commission on what the other guys are getting plus a signing bonus and royalties for the use of his concept for how ever many years the 25,000 person mercenary army is active.
