Bill O’Reilly Loses His Sh*t Over Claims Systemic Racism Still Exists

(Salon) – On “The O’Reilly Factor” Wednesday night, host Bill O’Reilly had what could charitably be called a tantrum — if any of his viewers were feeling charitable after watching O’Reilly slide down a slippery slope that began with him complaining about the ostensible liberal bias of Yahoo News’ automated news aggregation service and ended with him shouting, “You want a war? You got a war!”
O’Reilly started sanely enough, saying that liberals are “demonizing America as a racist nation” and mentioning that whereas the left was once satisfied with claiming that “white privilege” existed, in the wake of Charleston, liberals have upped the ante and started arguing that America is a “white supremacist” nation.
The very notion clearly angered him, and he claimed that just because there are individual white supremacists in the white community doesn’t mean that “the country is defined by them” — which is a strangely revealing statement, inasmuch as it demonstrates who exactly he means when he’s talking about “the country,” and because it’s the exact opposite kind of logic to the one he employs when, for example, a Muslim commits a crime.

Oakland Post Endorses Barbara Lee
Barbara Lee will be able to unify the city around Oakland’s critical budget and financial issues, since she will walk into the mayor’s office with the support of a super majority of seven city council members — enabling her to achieve much-needed consensus on moving Oakland into a successful future.
As we end the celebration of Women’s History Month in Oakland, we endorse Barbara Lee, a woman of demonstrated historical significance. In our opinion, she has the best chance of uniting the city and achieving our needs for affordable housing, public safety, and fiscal accountability.
As a former small business owner, Barbara Lee understands how to apply tools needed to revitalize Oakland’s downtown, uptown, and neighborhood businesses.
Barbara Lee will be able to unify the city around Oakland’s critical budget and financial issues, since she will walk into the mayor’s office with the support of a super majority of seven city council members — enabling her to achieve much-needed consensus on moving Oakland into a successful future.
It is notable that many of those who fought politically on both sides of the recent recall election battles have now laid down their weapons and become brothers and sisters in support of Barbara Lee. The Oakland Post is pleased to join them.
