‘It’s a Food Product, Essentially’: Fox News Starts Spinning Pepper Spray Cops
"I don't think we have the right to Monday-morning quarterback the police," O'Reilly says, "particularly at a place like UC Davis, which is a fairly liberal campus." God forbid! We'd never want to question Lt. John Pike's decision to generously and indifferently dust peacefully sitting protesters with pepper spray from only a few feet away. Especially given that Davis is, you know, a liberal campus! And, gosh, even if we were going to Monday-morning quarterback the police, shouldn't we remember, as Megyn Kelly tells O'Reilly, that pepper spray is "a food product, essentially"?

Thanksgiving dinners. right?

More vegetables? (Silly me, I think we all should eat more veggies, and this is such an EASY way to do it!)

Oh, just in case...:sarcasm:

6. I'm sure Bill O'R will "volunteer" as will Sean H. and Megan K. They are such
brave American rich assholes.

Let's turn them upside down and spray it in their other orifices, where they come up with all this "Fox News"

5. And essentially, it's assault without provocation....
...if you wanna talk essentials. Speaking essentially, FOX News is an enertainment/tabloid channel, not news, yet countless idiots tune in to get news from them. You can't fix stupid.

19. Chickenhawk, Felafel-freak O'Reilly has been mad at Americans
Edited on Tue Nov-22-11 05:57 PM by SpiralHawk
since he was a little boy. He began siding with the plutocrats and demagogues long ago, when he discovered that decent human beings shun A-holes like him.

According to the usual Republicon Occultists -- who study these sorts of MetaPhysical Matters ceaselessly -- because of his weak will and bitterness, O'Reilly will be unable to PUrity himself from this Pervasive Soul Stank this incarnation.

So turneth the Great Loofa of Life.
