An incensed critic recently offered his thoughts on my post, "Bill O'Reilly and His Comments on Drones: A False Characterization?" Vitriol aside, one will eventually find an interesting counter-argument that's worth serious consideration, although I explain below why I ultimately find it unconvincing. In brief, the critic claimed that I had wretched O'Reilly's words out of a context in which Obamacare was the focus of the discussion (and it certainly was). O'Reilly was only figuratively supporting drone strikes in his effort to reveal the fallacy underlying support for Obamacare. Please see below for the exchange (for the sake of anonymity, I changed his name to Hank...although he went by a pseudonym anyway).
Praises from the Amirica Fan Club
"Your problem, Amir, is that Barack Obama could rape a nun at high noon in the middle of Times Square and you would work your tail off to find some way to minimize it."
