Just Thinking Out Loud: The beauty of his Irish Catholic anger

There is perhaps one reason, above all others, why this man's show has performed so well in the cable (and sometimes network) ratings for over a decade: viewers know that every night, Bill O'Reilly will present something from the Left Wing that will result in their jaw hitting the floor.  And nobody else on television does it better because O'Reilly will gladly go where few rarely dare.  The occasionally boorish mannerisms notwithstanding, being in lockstep with O'Reilly's worldview isn't necessary to appreciate this culture warrior's mission, which could not be more appreciated by those who hold the deepest concerns about the welfare of our nation.
