a taco shy of a combination plate
Maybe he just needs more warm, fuzzy things in his life. Maybe, when he was just an obnoxious kid, his favorite movie was “Harvey.” Maybe he was just wanted to cement his reputation for being an obnoxious, obtuse prick.

Or maybe he just got a wild hare up his ass.

Either way, Bill O’Reilly is at it again.

Mr. No Spin Zone has launched an all-out effort to protect the Easter Bunny.

Right.

According to the Loofa Laird, Liberals have launched an all-out offensive on Easter. I suppose after that successful campaign to make sure Christmas came on December 25, it’s only natural to debut a sequel.

The premise is the same: Liberals are so anti-Christian that they are trying to destroy a religious holiday that Christians originally co-opted from Pagans.

He just leaves out the part about how Easter was originally a Spring Pagan celebration of fertility (the bunny and the eggs are key symbols of the Pagan rite, by the way).

Actually, this whole issue is a sad case for how difficult it is to satirize Right Wing idiots like Bill O’Reilly.

Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report is an O’Reilly spoof – at times a dead-on satire of the falafel king himself. Early on, the show poked fun at O’Reilly’s whole “War on Christmas” shtick by blowing the lid off the “War on Easter.”

It’s hard to poke fun at people who have no shame.

One of the keys of Springtime fertility is a healthy application of fertilizer, and Bill O’Reilly has plenty of that to spare.

More soon.
