Jon Stewart slammed O'Reilly in a hilarious bit on the Daily Show Tuesday night. Aparently O'Reilly was attacking the daily show for being against Christmas.

Here's part of the transcript - but the video is much better:

Stewart is a funny guy, I can't help but agree with most of the things he jokingly says.

I noticed O' Reilly watched is mouth with Howard Stern on. Maybe he's not that dumb. I said, "maybe..."

It ain't over yet. It's the first time I've watched O'Reilly in a Looonnng time. Howard Stern is a rotweiller but so far "fish ain't bittin'"

I don't know what they would argue about. There both makin' bank.

I thought it would be about porn or something like that but O'Reilly never said a word. I guess he didn't want the "phone sex" thing brought up which Howard would surely have done just to show up O'Reilly's hypocrisy. Stern was interesting though.

Reilly has, over and over, given the idea that the United States is a nation founded on the principles of Christianity and more protestant Christianity. He has mislead his viewers, We have the right to practice religion and any religion we choose but as you look at the founding fathers, and I was really surprised at this because I never gave it a second thought, they were far from religious men. Perhaps the WERE talking about freedom from religion as well as freedom ofreligion. I found several sites that popint to this theory but I chose just one that is an easy read.


The Founding Fathers, also, rarely practiced Christian orthodoxy. Although they supported the free exercise of any religion, they understood the dangers of religion. Most of them believed in deism and attended Freemasonry lodges. According to John J. Robinson, "Freemasonry had been a powerful force for religious freedom." Freemasons took seriously the principle that men should worship according to their own conscious. Masonry welcomed anyone from any religion or non-religion, as long as they believed in a Supreme Being. Washington, Franklin, Hancock, Hamilton, Lafayette, and many others accepted Freemasonry.
The Constitution reflects our founders views of a secular government, protecting the freedom of any belief or unbelief. The historian, Robert Middlekauff, observed, "the idea that the Constitution expressed a moral view seems absurd. There were no genuine evangelicals in the Convention, and there were no heated declarations of Christian piety." continue.....

Oh yeah, let's all pick on the strangely tall Irishman. Who doesn't have red hair. But I bet he's got a pot o' gold under his desk (the rich bass' terd).

(ignore me. I'm high on Skittles right now....)

I wouldn't call that a "slam", but it was more like mindless babbling. Which is what Stewart is good at anyways.
