Recently burned more bridges by calling O'Reilly a "Leper-Con

I know what a Leprechaun is.... but what's a Leper-Con?

A con man with Leprosy?

A leprous Irish conservative?

I don't like O'Reilly's splitting the difference tactics for self preservation in the spotlight of the Media. However, when I heard that Savage was calling him the Leprechaun, I was pissed off. My direct background is Irish and I felt that Savage was making an Irish hit in a way that had nothing to do with O'Reilly's arrogance or cowardice with repsect to positions.

It sounds like Savage is thinking: O'Reilly's Irish, I [Savage] don't like him, so I'll call him a Leprechaun. It makes no sense and misses the mark as to why O'Reilly is so objectionable.

I find Savage refreshing --up to a point. He's so topsy turvey on Bush. One week he's savaging Bush, the next he's admiring him to the sky. Take Schiavo case as an example. Because Bush [W] did not send in the Marines, that supposedly proved to Savage that Bush's efforts were all a con game. Absurd fits, yes. It is tied to his varying moods.

Result, he can't be taken too seriously when you listen to any particular show.
