Stephen Colbert Defends Pappa Bear O'Reilly Against the 'Pinhead' Bloggers
Apparently someone wasn’t too happy with some of the “pinhead” bloggers who took him to task for saying that the tides were proof of the existence of God. It’s a good thing Bill-O had Stephen Colbert there to defend him.
COLBERT: Worse yet… worse yet the leftie blogosphere has ridiculed Bill by pointing out that the moon causes the tides and that we’ve known that for centuries. Well it’s humble pie time, people who took ninth grade science.
Father O’Reilly, take ‘em to Sunday school.
O’REILLY: How’d the moon get here? Look, you pinheads who attacked me for this, you guys are just desperate. How’d the moon get here? How’d the sun get there? How’d it get there? Can you explain that to me? How come we have that and Mars doesn’t have it? (inaudible) How come? Why not? How’d it get here?
COLBERT: Boom! Take that gravity huggers!
Huh? How come we have the moon and Mars doesn’t? Except for the two that it has? How’d the sun get there? Where does it go at night? How’d the moon get there? Why does the cow jump over it? What time is it? How come I have two faucets?
Hot comes out of one; cold comes out of the other; never a miscommunication. You can’t explain that. You can’t explain that.
In fact, where does Bill O’Reilly come from? He’s on my TV, he’s off my TV. Then he’s back. Where’d he come from? Sometimes he’s on the radio and I’m watching him on the TIVO at the same time. You can’t explain that.
I don't want to give away all of the punchlines, so just watch the rest. Mediaite has O'Reilly's entire response to his critics here -- Bill O’Reilly Responds To ‘Pinhead’ Critics By Asking ‘How’d The Moon Get There?’. Needless to say they were a lot kinder to him than Colbert was.
Is it Swamp Loggers or Ax Men that has the guy who kicked ass looking for a high-dollar log so he could make enough cash to take his little brown dog to the vet in the city? That guy, I respect. B ilge-o, I don't.

Billo is equally sure the magical light that rises in the sky each morning is proof of GAWD - how else could it happen?

And how about a thermos?
Huh?
I put in something cold, it stays cold.
I put in something hot, it stays hot.
How does it know?
Huh?
HOW DOES IT KNOW?!?!
Answer me that, you pinheads.
Clearly a great example of supernatural power.

Why does the cow jump over it?
Hey Stephen, have someone pull on your udders on a cold morning and see what happens.
Vote GOP and move forward to the 18th Century.
Another Billo mysticism .

BillO is a JUGGALO!
Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust.

OMGZ, you shouldn't post publicly about the Moo'slim Brotherhood. Bad things happen to people who try to out the cowspiracy. My milk went bad, and it still had THREE DAYS LEFT!
very funny :)
We needed another FDR, instead we got another clinton.
And the Milk Industry is, of course, financed by George Soros.

I honestly think Colbert is doing more to pop the bubblehead brain of O"Rielly with his faux Papa Bear adulation than Stewart is doing by alternately mocking him or having him on his show.
Stewart is good at satire when he's fired up and really blasting away, but Colbert is slyly putting the needle into Billo and letting the air out of his really stupid bloviations.
I seriously doubt Colbert will ever be invited to any other dinners involving The Shrub.

How many moons does Saturn and Jupiter have, BO?
I know that the gun in the mouth was suppose to be a site gag, but that was kind of freakie.
BTW if anyone wants to see examples of REAL pinheads(Microcephaly), just google pinhead(or more proper, microcephaly), and see who BO is truly making fun of.

Colbert is genius.
I second that.

Has anyone caught on yet? Republicans are INCAPABLE OF ADMITTING A MISTAKE. Palin, Rush, Beck...?
This whole thing would have gone nowhere if BillO had simply said, "Oops, I forgot about the moon's connection to the tides". But instead, he suggests he was talking about the moon all along.
The best example of Republicans inability to admit making a mistake?
BUSH'S "CAN'T GET FOOLED AGAIN" gaffe. He couldn't FATHOM a response that accepted blame for something, so he had to make an alternate response up.

Yes indeed!! As a lifelong O's fan, I always appreciate a refernce to "the Earl of Baltimore."
About the famous Bush quote "Can't get fooled again" -
He was simply incapable of uttering those damning words "Shame on me". It is not within a republican to ever do so, ever. Never, ever, ever.
"Government by organized money is just as dangerous as Government by organized mob"

The very last line of that clip is the absolute best.
Billo is the best ad man for atheism I've heard yet. Can't explain it? God did it.

both/all be geniuses?
I mean Colbert is at least genius in the delivery even if he didn't write it all himself.

"Egotism is the anesthetic that dulls the pain of Stupidity" - Frank Leahy
He was the third actor to play the Lone Ranger, for TV and most indentified with the part. The first Ranger was Lee Powell in the Republic Studios serial The Lone Ranger, the second was Robert Livingston in Republic's slightly later Lone Ranger Rides Again, and in both Chief Thundercloud played Tonto.
Moore was the third, although he was replaced for one or two seasons by John Hart, who was actually pretty mediocre, but better when he took on a disguise, then Moore came back when the series went color.
Diabolus est Deus Inversus
That's not counting the radio Rangers: George Steinus (who later became a scriptwriter name George Seaton and wrote Miracle on 34th Street), Earle Graser from 1933-1941 when he accidentally died, and then Brace Beemer who played the part from 1941-1952, and English born John Todd played Tonto for the bulk of the run.
Of course Clayton show started in 1949, so for three years he and Beemer overlapped.
Diabolus est Deus Inversus
I always thought it was Rossini.
"No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master." - Hunter S. Thompson
Actually Rossini wrote The William Tale Overture which The Lone Ranger had used as it's theme song, like The Green Hornet used Flight of the Bumblebee by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov for his opera The Tale of Tsar Saltan, composed in 1899-1900.
The interesting thing is that both the intermission music for the Ranger radio show and the serial version of Flash Gordon--with Buster Crabbe--used Franz Liszt's Les Preludes.

If there was anybody I could ever fall in love with it would be Stephen Colbert.

Diabolus est Deus Inversus
reference to Gawd. The Loofah. It's always there. Never a miscommunication.
But if Gawd is so damn perfect -- never a miscommunication -- wouldn't it have been a lot smarter and easier for us if Gawd made the tides always the same height. I mean it's not like the Moon gets bigger and smaller. And why the hell does high tide have to be fifty minutes later every day? Would it have been so damn difficult to make the first high tide come at 6AM, followed by the first low tide at Noon, followed by the second high at 6PM, and finally the second low tide at midnight.
Gawd may be perfect, but he's a perfect dick -- making everything unnecessarily complicated.
It's hearing logic like Billy O'liely's that made me convinced that religion didn't have any answers for me.
Been an Atheist since as far back as I can remember. No one ever... and I mean EVER... gave me a good enough reason to believe in a magical man in the sky who watches everything I do, and has a Jewish Cosmic Zombie son who's flesh and blood I'm supposed to symbolically consume at mass every Sunday.
Science, on the other hand, sounded incredibly interesting, and allowed me to come to actual conclusions based upon tried and tested data.
I'm not knocking the religious, but you guys will never get me to believe in all that supernatural nonsense. Especially if you have people like Billo as one of your fellow believers. That guy's a crazy, stupid, dangerous, willfully ignorant liar.
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
Bill, it only takes a rhyme or reason ..... dun, tah, dun, ton!!!!!!!
Billy is going kaput!!! This happens when one thinks they know everything ...
Hope BilloO got a chance to watch it.
This is totally crazy propaganda. Really. It's surreal to watch news become Orwell's Ministry of Truth. Obviously refering to Fox News, not the satire of it.
