I was listening to O'Reilly's radio show today. He had a man call in regarding all-black groups and events. One of the organizations this guy spoke about was the Congressional Black Caucus. O'Reilly poo-pooed the guy's point about blacks having all-black colleges, sororities, fraternities, beauty pageants, etc., In regards to the Congressional Black Caucus, Bill said that he could understand a Black Caucus since they were organized to make the needs of the black community known. Of course I began screaming at the radio saying: "Isn't that what a representative is supposed to do anyway? Why do they need a special group to do that? Why isn't there a White Congressional Caucus to represent the needs of the white community?"
O'Reilly has been utterly rabid on this prom issue. I believe he's totally wrong. If a group of people want to have a freakin' party and pay for that party themselves, they can invite whoever the hell they want! The party wasn't sanctioned or supported by the school, and the last time I knew, this was supposed to be a free country. O'Reilly seems to be more concerned that the school principal and the Governor weren't out there making scathing remarks about these kids and their prom. Like someone else said on this thread, it isn't any of their business. No government money was spent on this prom, it isn't being held in a governmental building, and no government agency is sanctioning it. So what the hell is Bill's big problem?
