Republicans troll for hate

Bill O’Reilly has been on tear about the Daily Kos for about 2 months straight. He has equated them with Nazis and the Klu Klux Klan. He points to the “hate” speech that he says can be found there. Here’s the problem, the Daily Kos is an open forum blog. Anyone can post in the dairies and anyone can post a comment. Although the Daily Kos has several monitors they can’t and shouldn’t catch everything. Billo hates that.

The fact of the matter is that Bill O’Reilly’s own web site has hate speech, beside the stuff that he is regurgitating. The FBI has reportedly launched a probe into some of the hate speech on his web site.

The Carpetbagger has found a Republican politician Tim Hugo who has launched an attack ad based on the hate speech that was found in the comment section of Rex Simmon’s blog.

Last month on The Colbert Report, Stephen Colbert and Daily Kos founder, Markos Moulitsas revealed to the nation how hate speech can easily get on a blog. Funny interview. Enjoy.
