Bill O'Reilly appeals to younger voters



Do you think these two young Republicans might want to rethink their party affiliation after this? "Close-minded, racist, rigid, old-fashioned" - yeah, that about sums it up (although I'd add faith-based and reality-challenged).

And this line, as Cenk Uygur notes, describes the Republican Party in a nutshell: "We've become the party that will pat you on the back when you make it, but won't offer you a hand to help you get there."

Well, when you've already "made it," when you're rich, the GOP wants some of that, so they'll be your new best friend as long as you've still got money. But to help anyone who's not already rich become successful? Forget that! You should have inherited your money, as God intended.

But anyway, getting back to Bill O'Reilly, could he be any more condescending to these young Republicans? Is it because they're young? Is it because they're women? Or is it just a matter of killing the messenger? (Or just because Bill O'Reilly is a condescending POS to everyone?)

Why did Barack Obama appeal to younger voters? Oh, it must be because he was "younger and hipper" than Mitt Romney, huh? After all, young voters are so shallow, so ignorant, so "immature."

"So why should the Republican Party care about a bunch of kids who don't know anything, and they like the guy [Barack Obama] just because he's flashy?" (Note that the report said they liked the fact that Obama was trying to help.)

Heh, heh. Yeah, you're right, O'Reilly. I think the GOP should just write off anyone under 70.

    Like I always say about such comments, 'Republicans don't abort their young, they EAT their young.'
