Not sure if this has been brought up but a similiar article has surfaced which falls under the theme of this thread: "Hating America" article Mr. O'Reilly's article is painfully outrageous and blatantly ignorant. As a Canadian, I find it pretty offensive being told that we're given half the story when one cannot turn on FOX or CNN without having ones stomach turn over the blatant disregard for truth. Only in America could a man that was (in)directly responsible for Osama Bin Laden, the Taliban and 9/11 be deified on (American) television while its leadership claims to be waging a war on those who threaten their safety. Laughable considering that history dictates that no one is more a threat to the average American citizen's safety than it's own administration. No one is more to blame for the American public having the wool pulled over their eyes than you and the rest of the slanted American media. How patriotic of him. How much he must love America, its principal and its people to do so. Fox News is run by one Roger Ailes, an individual who has been credited for helping to elect Nixon, Reagan and George H.W. Bush and being a 100% Republican supporter, and obviously was hired for these reasons. Apparently the guy cleaned the house when he took over, actually asking the employees of Fox News when he arrived whether they were Liberal or not and then firing them. He refers to Fox News as 'fair and balanced' since but only looks right wing because the rest of the media is so far to the left. Taken into consideration, I'm glad we don't have the clap trap that Fox News spews here in Canada. My home and native land, bitch. Bill O'Reilly with his fair and balanced program can stay the hell out and keep me quite happy. Furthermore, there's a nice rebuttal on Mr. O'Reilly's 'article' in Matt Good's (while on the subject of Canadian musicians, one of Canada's best, they don't have to make it big in States to mean anything, kids) latest blog:

The latest offering from Canadian musician, Matthew Good. White Light Rock & Roll Review is mostly a political album in a 60s rock motif. Much like the entries in his blog, WLRRR deals touches upon various political issues, specifially American foreign policy and critiquing the Bush Administration. The sound of the record is much more raw/off the floor from his previous album, Avalanche . WLRRR is more consistent however, all the tracks range from good to excellent and the album as a whole is one of his best. Best track: We're So Heavy

If anyones had floor seats along the entrance aisle, help me out. How are the actual seat numbers arranged? For example, I have seats 1, 2 and 3, so would seat 1 would be right against the barricade next to the aisle/ramp, or at the far end? Also, if anyone cares the show seems to be sold out now.

Reagan is dead Reagan is gone But through debt and destruction His legacy lives on

It'll probably take a few days to sell out. That said, you can still get good seats as Ticketmaster tomorrow as they only allocate certain seats for the presale

I managed to pick up Row 8 floor seats, the side facing the camera I believe (NWFLR). Nearly purchased the $400 platinum seats but my better judgment opted not to. At least this time around...
