Marriage made in....heaven

So I'm reading about Bill O'Reilly and David Letterman having a little back and forth on Letterman's show. Letterman, in unusual fashion in my opinion since he usually throws softballs at most of his guests.

I wasn't aware, but the Associated Press reports that O'Reilly was a catalyst in the whole don't-take-Christ-out-of-Christmas movement. That was an issue Letterman disagreed with O'Reilly about and the two went back and forth.

So the media picked up on it and made it into a story. O'Reilly, in subsequent interviews has said he enjoyed the opportunity to spar and had no issue with being ambushed. Third-party analysts said that the whole issue may be backfiring on O'Reilly because he's suggested he may retire in a couple years. They even used the term 'jumping the shark' to describe him making such a big fuss about Christmas. Happy Days fans should remember Jumping the Shark - a term from when a show gets on its last legs and incorporates some kind of stunt to pull in a bigger audience. In Happy Days' case, they had Fonzie literally jump a shark for a TV thrill show.

So if O'Reilly is in his twilight and has nothing else to do, I've got a plan for him.

He needs to get into politics. And I've got the perfect conservative to run with him. It would be like a Magic 8 Ball of politics: you never know what's going to come out of their mouths on any given day.

Bill O'Reilly and Pat Robertson. The same Pat Robertson who this past week said Ariel Sharon was struck down by God for dividing God's land by agreeing to give the Gaza Strip to Palestine. The same Pat Robertson who also said the Hurricane and terrorist attacks on America was God's punishment for the U.S. abortion rate. Uh huhhhh.

Did I mention that Robertson recently also suggested Hugo Chavez, the outspoken leader of Venezuela, be assassinated?

What a dream ticket. A marriage made only in ... heaven.
