I don't think his off-hand comment was nearly as discriminatory as the GLAAD blogger does, but it's FOXNews for crying out loud! I think it's part of their corporate mandate is to mention "al-Qaeda" and Sarah Palin every minute and a half or so. In my opinion, I don't think he was trying to compare the gay community to terrorists he was just saying, "If McDonald's has a 'come as you are' advertising campaign aimed at different cultures, do they have one aimed at al-Qaeda?" Bill O'Reilly and GLAAD Don't get me wrong, I can't decide if Bill O'Reilly is a Giant Douche or a Turd Sandwhich, I just think people are being overly sensitive to an off hand comment.

I have a friend, who right after the vote for HCR last Sunday stated on Facebook that she was worried this new bill was going to take away her private insurance, bankrupt her family and prevent her kids from being covered. I politely explained she had nothing to worry about since all of her fears were unfounded in the current form of the bill. She recently posted something on another friend's FB page stating how the HCR public option would put her family out of insurance and they'd never get to see a doctor due to Obama 'death panels." And it made me wonder, how, when there is non-stop news and HCR coverage people could still be so much in the dark. She seemed much re-assured when our mutual friend echoed my own statements about the current law's format, but it shocked me to know that intelligent people could be so clueless. I can only assume she was listening to the GOP flunky naysayers and no one else. Stop watching FOX News people. They don't want you ...
