Kind of funny, and kind of sad. I almost — almost — feel sorry for O’Reilly in particular and the right in general.
Billy Boy, after this commercial break, is about to pay homage to, in his words, an “American hero,” Paul Newman.
O’Reilly, who regularly pillories American movie stars as “pinheads” for their liberal views, is apparently unaware of, or giving a pass to, Newman’s status as an unabashed liberal.
But, what choice does O’Reilly have? Other than redneck country stars, he has very few conservative celebrities to honor. That should (but won’t) tell him something about Americans’ taste in culture.
it’s hard not to admire Paul Newman for putting his money to work in such productive ways, such as his Newman’s Own line–high quality stuff and the proceeds go to good causes… very smart.

Paul Newman is a legend for his work in movies, and he’s a stud for all his work outside of movies
