Bill O’Reilly vs, Jon Stewart: Big Govt vs. Bigger Govt
Possibly more enlightening than the other American political debate over the weekend, almost certainly more enlightening, and without a doubt a heck of a lot funnier.
My favourite moment was near the end of the debate when O'Reilly seemed to drop his mask for a moment.
"You can make a lot of money by being an assassin. A lot of money. Doesn't matter if you're right-wing or left-wing. You go in, and you're a hater - radio, cable, in print, whatever, and you get paid. People go in, and they don't even believe the stuff they say... and they get a lot of money... it has coarsened everything. There are people, Americans, who want to hear hate... and they hear it."
I just couldn't bear to watch the whole thing but stopped once O'Reilly accepted Social Security as a good thing: proving that without principles there is no winning the argument.
