Daily Kos to Bill O’Reilly: “Bring it on, Falafel Boy.”
For those who don’t watch Fox News or read Daily Kos, the 800-pound gorilla of Democratic blogging communities, a brief recap is in order. Daily Kos consists of a few regular writers, who get front page exposure on the site, and thousands of diarists, who get to post their own thoughts and chat amongst themselves. It was started by a mildly progressive Democrat, Gulf War I veteran, attorney and activist, Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, and has spawned an annual get-together for participants on the site, Yearly Kos, which has morphed into a fairly important event for Democratic politicians and has begun to attract sponsors.
This year, one of the corporate sponsors of the event was Jet Blue, the discount airline. Bill O’Reilly, a whiskey-nosed, apoplectic talk show host on Fox, became enraged that anyone would have anything to do with DK, participants on which he has compared to Nazis. Now, apparently, he has vowed to destroy the site, and in service to that goal, is demanding comment from Democratic politicians on a Photoshopped image a random Kos diarist posted, featuring Joe Lieberman on his knees preparing to express the thanks of a grateful nation to president Bush.
You can follow the link above to read more about a controversy in which the leading light of Fox News has chosen to dash himself upon rocks consisting of some anonymous Kos habitués, but all you really need to know about the eventual outcome is summed up in the new Kos rallying cry. Falafel Boy is doomed.
