Bill O’Reilly ogles the single woman voter

So the lovely and talented Bill O’Reilly of Fox news has had a bug in his butt about single women voters for a while now — at least since he ran across a Gallup poll a couple months back showing that single women as a group overwhemlingly support Obama.

So last night he sent a “reporter” out to investigate these strange creatures. Or at least those representatives of the single female demographic that happened to be wearing skimpy and/or silly Halloween costumes.

Amanda Marcotte offers a few thoughts about the segment in a post on Slate.

Here’s an equally “fair and balanced” look at the world of single male voters.

And conservative humor always seems mean to me-because it is the powerful beating up the powerless which is pretty mean. I have never been a fan of humiliation comedy and almost all of theirs is that way.

There’s a genius comic made by Swedish cartoonist Pontus Lundkvist called “if the Moderates could make cartoons” (the Moderates, despite the name, being the most right-wing party here). The thing is, almost all cartoonists are socialists, so there really isn’t much in the way of right-wing cartoons out there. So this is Lundkvist’s take on what right-wing cartoons WOULD look like if they existed. http://www.galago.se/blogg/om-moderater-kunde-rita

For instance, the last of the pics feature a woman saying to a man “Hello! I’m your new boss!” And that’s the joke.

I’ve seen actual cartoons done by conservatives, they’re pretty close to that.
