What's with O'Reilly's eyepatch?

[MrMonk]

See the ad on the left of the Latest page.

I've also seen Coulter with an eyepatch on KO.

Is there some meaning behind this?

Or is it an attempt to reduce global warming (which, as the best FSM scientists agree, is inversely proportional to the number of pirates)?

8. FSM is obviously part of the vast left-wing conspiracy!

Keith Olbermann putting a pirate patch on Coulter... Radnofsky putting a pirate patch on O'Reilly ... By Jove, Watson, I think you've got it! Our left-wing masters are conveying their secret message to us: All HAIL the Flying Spaghetti Monster!
