I Know This Is Going to Shock You

Like Michelle Malkin, Bill O'Reilly has identified the real victim in the Dr. Tiller murder. Well, there's the "unborn babies," of course, but the real victim here is... Bill O'Reilly. Oh, and Fox news.

At the top of his Talking Points segment, O’Reilly did briefly say, “Americans should condemn the murder of Dr. George Tiller,” but he then quickly segued into more attacks on Tiller. He also used the opportunity to attack his critics, saying they were trying to “exploit” the incident to attack Fox News.

So, when violence and murder occur as a direct result of eliminationist rhetoric, and when someone has the temerity to point that out, it's "exploitation." Got it.

Frankly, I'm amazed he managed to condemn the murder in his eagerness to make it all about himself.

When I heard about Tiller’s murder, I knew pro-abortion zealots and Fox News haters would attempt to blame us for the crime, and that’s exactly what has happened. [...]

No backpedaling here, madam [Mary Mapes]. Unlike you, I report honestly. Every single thing we said about Tiller was true, and my analysis was based on those facts. [...]

Now, it’s clear that the far left is exploiting — exploiting — the death of the doctor. Those vicious individuals want to stifle any criticism of people like Tiller. That — and hating Fox News — is the real agenda here.

Poor O'Reilly. All this viciousness directed towards him and his network. I'm sure he's being harassed coming to and leaving his office. He's probably got to wear a bulletproof vest to work every day and drive an armored car. And I'm sure he's been stalked to every business he patronizes, not to mention having his every daily movement posted on the internet so these "pro-abortion zealots" can monitor where he is at all times.

Oh, no, wait, that was someone else.

Extra bonus disgusting smug:

Finally, if these people are soooo compassionate — so very compassionate, so concerned for the rights and welfare of others — maybe they might have written something, one thing, about the 60,000 fetuses that will never become American citizens. Or am I wrong?

American citizens. I'll leave you to vomit over that in comments.
