Liz Cheney & Pa
The spawn of Lady Macbeth and her snarly fella
Singing torture songs a cappella
Glenn Beck & Michele Bachmann
Crazy Glenn harmonizes with a bug-eyed chanteuse—
A duo of right wing musical abuse
Shrillo Billo
Listen to his vocal crescendo
And not-so-subtle innuendo
Charles Grassley
“I want choices!” Listen to him croon.
Health care options are a different tune!

Bill O. the Bully & Amanda Terkel
Huffington Post: O'Reilly Producer Stalks Amanda Terkel: THE VIDEO
Think Progress: I Was Followed, Harassed, And Ambushed By Bill O’Reilly’s Producer
Bill O. the Bully & Amanda Terkel
Amanda had an enemy.
His voice was loud and gruff.
He liked to spout off on TV…
To swagger and act tough.
He sent his henchman out one day
To follow poor Amanda…
To ambush her and make a film
To use as propaganda
On his nighttime TV show
He calls the “No Spin Zone”—
Wherein the blowhard blusters
Through his mouthy megaphone
And spins the news to meet his needs
With spiderly exaction—
He Who Can’t Be Criticized—
FOX channel’s star attraction.

Bill O.: A Rhyming Rant about Bill O'Reilly
Bill O.
Bill O., Bill O., Bill O’Reilly
Thinks he’s savvy, brilliant, wily…
Thinks his TV program rocks
'Cause he’s the ratings king at Fox!
He’s a blowhard; he's dogmatic.
His verbal cancer’s metastatic!
Bill O. likes to sputter, rant—
But when he’s wrong, he won’t recant.
Bill’s his own best adulator.
He's a pompous bloviator...
A smarmy, smug intimidator…
A nasty, vile expectorator
Of speech that’s meant to anger, rile.
He’s one great big bag of bile!!!

From the Baltimore Chronicle & Sentinel (March 23, 2009): O’Reilly Ambushes His Latest Critic
Excerpt: Fox News host Bill O'Reilly (O'Reilly Factor, 3/23/08) recently aired the results of his latest ambush-style interview, which targeted Think Progress blog editor Amanda Terkel. Terkel had dared to point out that O'Reilly, who was invited to speak at a fundraiser for a foundation for rape survivors, had previously suggested that a "moronic" rape/murder victim had invited assault by her drinking and the way she was dressed.

John Cleese inspired by plight of Bill O'Reilly (On Countdown with Keith Olbermann)
Here’s an excerpt from Cleese’s poem:
Bill O'Reilly's No Spin Zone is rated highly
by his own beloved mother,
but no other.
Except that Bill for all his faults
still has one skill, a skill of sort:
He can amuse a true dull ox,
the dullest crayon in the box,
the kind of ox that watches Fox.

Journalistawocky: A Poem Inspired by Bill O'Reilly
Here is an excerpt from Coming soon to a lefty rag near you by Bill O’Reilly
(Boston Herald—Sunday, March 22, 2009)
The other day, left-wing muckraker Seymour Hersh went on MSNBC and said he had information, provided by the usual anonymous sources, that Dick Cheney was running an assassination squad out of the White House.
I have but one simple observation: If Cheney really had such a crew, Hersh would have been dead a long time ago, and so would most everybody at MSNBC.
You can read the rest of Bill’s Op-Ed here.
Inspired by Bill O’Reilly’s Op-Ed, I give you this parody of Lewis Carroll’s Jabberwocky:
Journalistawocky
(With apologies to Lewis Carroll)
By Elaine Magliaro
‘Twas brilling, and the slimy Rove
Did gyre and gyrate in D. C.;
All mumsy were the neocons,
As was Darth Dick, our last V. P.
“Beware the liberal media!
The pinko press is out to get us!
Watch out for Seymour Hersch. Do shun
That venal villainnettus!”
He took his AK-47:
Long time an investigative foe he sought—
So rested he by the River Potomac
And lay awhile in thought.
And as in ruffish thought he lay,
Seymour Hersh with his fearsome pen,
Came snuffling through the grubbly grass,
And flubbled on the fen.
One shot! Two! And through and through
The bullets all went whizzerack!
He left Hersh then—and took his pen.
He went scarrumping back.
“And hast though slain that narsty knave?
Come to my arms, my breadly lad!
Oh freelish day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chuckled for he was so glad.
‘Twas brilling, and the slimy Rove
Did gyre and gyrate in D. C.;
All mumsy were the neocons,
As was Darth Dick, our last V. P.
