Bill O'Reilly's Lies, Lies, Lies Strike Again!
Tampa Tribune ^ | 11/2/05 | DANIEL RUTH

Posted on 11/02/2005 7:03:26 PM PST by Halfmanhalfamazing

The move was prompted by efforts on the part of the Muslim community to include a day off for Eid Al-Fitr, which marks the end of Ramadan.

Students are still permitted to take days off for religious holidays.

The school board decision will be revisited next year and could be amended.

Still, the intersection of religion and public schools was irresistibly tailor-made for O'Reilly, to whom a cell phone is an X-rated sex toy.

Only Faliero had voted against eliminating the days off.

But when O'Reilly's gofers called to inquire whether she'd appear on a show with a man whose idea of courtship is heavy breathing, she declined.

"I told them I had a conflict," Faliero explained. Her daughter had a soccer game Thursday, which was an infinitely better use of her time than showing up on O'Reilly's cheesy mosh pit of right-wing pandering.

As well, it's possible Faliero didn't feel like going through an hourlong delousing after sharing air time with the Baghdad Bob of gasbags.

But Faliero's desire to watch her daughter play soccer, rather than pay homage to Fox News, wasn't good enough for O'Reilly, who took to the airwaves Thursday night and started lying.

O'Reilly had a Tampa area pastor and Rhonda Storms, a Hillsborough County Commissioner, on his show last night. Storms told O'Reilly about a running feud she had with a Tribune columnist over this, and revealed that he had called her vulgar and obscene names in some of his communications with her. She called the Tribune to complain to his editor, and he apologized, but the "columnist" was unfazed and responded by reading his remarks into the public minutes of a County Commission meeting!

Storms never mentioned the columnist's name, but I just know it was this pathetic little turd, Daniel Ruth. She suggeested calling the Tribune's owners in Virginia (Media General, I think) to complain, as complianing to the Tribune will do no good. Ruth is their "star" columnist, like Maureen Dowd at the NYT.

The Tampa Tribune hates O'Reilly's guts; he's labelled them the most corrupt newspaper in the country.

It's not the Tampa Tribune that O'Reilly has called that, it's the St. Petersburg Times, and he's spot-on with that assessment. Besides being completely in the tank for Sami al Arian, the Times has bitterly fought since Day One to make sure that John Evander Couey does not get punished for raping and murdering Jessica Lunsford, and has been tirelessly fighting to make sure that monsters like Couey are able to continue freely preying on kids without fear of punishment.

The Times, along with most of the rest of the media down here in Florida, doesn't give a sh!t about our kids and figures that theirs are safe in the private schools and gated communities that they are "entitled" to as the self-appointed intellectual elites. All they want is a steady stream of childrens' corpses to keep turning up raped and murdered in shallow graves to use to beat over the head of Jeb Bush and the Florida GOP.
