Take action on O'Reilly's lies

As I said below, Bill Maher had his contract with ABC ended because he said you could call the 9/11 hijackers any kind of jackass, but you couldn't legitimately call them cowards.

In our "nuanced" age, the right-wing bitched and bitched until ABC said it would end his show.

Meanwhile, O'Reilly continuously pisses on the memories of the victims of a massacre by claiming that they were cold-blodded killers, not victims.

These were the American Troops he claims to so love.

O'Reilly's average audience is 70, seriously.

And folks in that age range, are big with the VFW.

I think they may be interested in demanding an apology from both O'Reilly and from FoxNews for covering for him.

Here is their information:

Be polite, of course, these people have certainly done nothing wrong, but they can make the perpetrators of this awful act eat some crow and, if not get a bacillus like O'Reilly off the air, at least cause him to act contrite rather than re-write history. Feel free to send them the Olbermann video - at least for a while.
