Let the pubic dancers out of their cages!

So what is this report trying to say? Now that Obama is president the far left will be emboldened to snort whip-its off the taint of a lower eastside tranny.

This video was the perfect blend of abstract journalism and O' Reilly wisdom. Despite all the mouthfarting, I was laughing hysterically at the portayal of North Beach (a.ka. Little Italy). It's one of the coolest neighborhoods in the country, hosting City Light Books, the finest restaurants, and Lombard Street and Coit tower all within walking distance.

So fuck you Bill O. You suck.

P.S. Your "producer" reminds me of a limp dick on prom night.

People in San Francisco are tolerant and accepting of one another and that's bad?

I've always wanted to move to San Francisco; I'm not sure that making me more motivated was O'Reilly's intent here.

Not that there's anything wrong for man to mastburbate with giant dildos.

That is, unless you're a big fucking hypocrite named Bill O'Reilly.

He puts us Irish to shame.

this was as dishonest a piece of reporting as ive ever seen. u can do the same in any big or small city.

i do have to say, what gives the poster the right to call these folks "dregs."?

If the bolded quote "nowhere is the radical left government more on display than in the city of San Francisco" is wrong, then what city would Dominic say has a more leftist government? Seattle? New York? Hardly.

And while other cities also have their "dregs and pariahs", I think Dominic would be hard-pressed to argue that the density and visibility of homeless, pot-smoking, and transvestitism in San Francisco is matched by other cities. And yes, each of those populations is encouraged by intentional policies of the San Francisco city government.

Dominic may regard those demographics and policies as positive, but that doesn't mean that someone calling them out in a negative light has his facts wrong.

EVERYONE in this city is sick of our homeless problem (before anyone says it, our current problem wasn't created by Reagan), and everyone here is sick of having double the crime rate of NYC. But no one in their right mind is blaming open pot smoking and gay marriage - two things Obama is pretty mum on anyhow.

Most importantly, the Streets of San Francisco-era City O'Reilly cites, even during the first Bush-era, saw crime rates in this town close triple what they are now.

I can't believe I'm even writing this... Fox is RATINGS, not content.

As far as I can see, the Far Left has been underground hiding for decades...mostly in rest homes and Alzheimer's clinics. Should Obama "release" these aged weatherfolk, health care costs would soar from having to pick them up off the sidewalk.
