Yeah, Right, Whatever

I'm not a big O'Reilly fan. I've read his books- not bad. I watched The Factor for a while, but it's always the same thing... he's an attack chihuahua for his own pet causes. He has been successful at getting things done by bringing attention to blatant stupidity, don't get me wrong. But, sometimes he just doesn't get it.

Take the Golden Globes. Commercials for tonight's O'Reilly Factor say that he'll be talking about last weekend's award show and discuss whether or not the Golden Globes have lost touch with mainstream America.

News Flash, Bill- the Golden Globes are voted on by the HFPA- the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The HFPA has absolutely nothing to do with America's Heartland. They are foreign reporters who pass on the latest gossip in Hollywood to their readers and viewers- none of whom are in the US.

It doesn't surprise me that Brokeback Mountain got an award, or that the the woman who played a transgender character got one. Unfortunately, that just provides one more bit of evidence as to where large sections of society are headed.

What surprises me is that anyone in the real world cares anymore.
