Racist O'Reilly Slimes Again
Fox News bigot Bill O'Reilly has a new routine. No long satisfied with calling Mexicans "wetbacks," O'Reilly is now humorously slandering inner-city school children as thieves.
Emceeing Saturday night's Best Friends rock-and-roll gala at the Marriott Wardman Park -- which raised $800,000 for the 15-year-old charity benefiting inner-city schoolchildren -- the Fox News Channel star was trying to fill dead air during a lull in the entertainment.
Members of the "Best Men," as the sixth-to-eighth-grade boys in the program are called, were delayed getting onstage to perform a lip-synced rendition of the Four Tops standard "Reach Out (I'll Be There)." O'Reilly ad-libbed: "Does anyone know where the Best Men are? I hope they're not in the parking lot stealing our hubcaps."O'Reilly's defense: "Everybody was happy." Given that the "everybody" was a group of overwhelmingly white Republican politicians, fat cats and socialites, I wouldn't doubt that for a second.
But those Republicans are running to distance themselves from O'Reilly. Grove's column insinuates that everyone in attendance -- except Bo Derek -- was miraculously struck deaf at the precise second O'Reilly revealed his true self.
Perhaps the bigger scandal -- the one that the Groveler carefully avoids -- is the nature of the "benefit" that "inner-city schoolchildren" recieve from Best Friends:
Best Friends is a youth development program with a character building curriculum for girls in grades 5-12 with messages of abstinence from sex, drugs and alcohol. Best Friends is an in-school program conducted during the school day by educators who serve as instructors and mentors. Throughout the school year, each participant receives at least 110 hours of guidance and instruction.
One of the Best Friends programs, for adolescent girls, "provides study, employment and social tips, including proper table manners...." (The Best Friends website also says, somewhat incomprehensibly, that "Participants are not self-selected but receive the curriculum, with parental permission, as part of their school curriculum.")
There you have it. A program designed to socialize immoral and ill-mannered "inner-city school children" and discourage them from reproductive activity. (As one young, not-self-selected participant put it, it's all about "how to respect women and how to control our attitude.") The focus of the instruction is not academics, but Elayne Bennett's hobby-horse, abstinence.
And, if they're really really good, participants can create a white-washed version of the pre-Civil Rights era in song and dance for their corpulent and decaying benevolent patrons.
