Speaking of O'Reilly ...

Here's a game:

Can anyone spot what is missing from O'Reilly's Talking Points last night commenting on the movie Stop Loss that might be relevant to a commentary about the movie?

Apparently the staff of the O'Reilly Factor have allready failed to notice what is missing.

Scroll to Highlight the Answer: O'Reilly does not address in any way, shape or form what the content of the movie is or is about.

Here, in case you are interested is a leftist review of the film, and the writer didn't like it either, but did apparently see it.

Yep, O'Reilly simply has a slander Hollywood and show business agenda, regardless of the actual content.

So people are not going to movies that are allegedly critical of the current war. Perhaps they just want to avoid thinking about the war in all contexts? One wonders if they would go to a movie explicitly glorifying our role in Iraq?

That review makes a point about O'Reilly I would have made if I didn't think it so obvious - it isn't anti-American or even anti-war: it's pro troops.

If his head wasn't so far up his ass he'd know that.
