"He a useful idiot. Sometimes useful, mostly idiot." That just happens to be my impression of GB. In my rural community, we only have one talk radio channel and I still listen to him regularly when he is not insulting my ancestors or crying about something. Most of the little time I have for pleasure reading is 19th Century Texas history these days, but I read The Real Lincoln by Thomas DeLorenzo who as far as I can tell, had no axe to grind. And O'Reilly is a pompous useless bigot.
