Awhile back, Bill O'Lielly threatened a Canadian minister with a boycott similar to one that, according to the Paris Business Review, had cost France a couple billion dollars.

Never mind O'Lielly making economic threats to another country, which is just his megalo- erm, style. The real problem was, there had been no boycott of France, and in fact U.S. trade with them had increased. And the Paris Business Review didn't actually exist.

But now its web site does.

Oh, that is *too* funny. My favorite part is the line "The Paris Business Review has determined that losses from a widely publicized boycott of French products could reach into the billions of dollars, and possibly as high as a gazillion dollars."

Michael Maltese is laughing his saintly head off at that.

Personally, I don't watch Bill O'Reilly. Admittedly, he's funnier than any sitcom, but that's not what I look for on a "news" show.

I've hardly ever watched, or listened to, him at all. He annoys the hell out of me.

On the other hand, I just got my DVD of OutFoxed (http://www.outfoxed.org/). That makes me want to slap the taste out of his mouth, except of course he has none.

Mmmm. Maltese. Time to break out Looney Tunes - The Golden Collection (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000AYJXS/tomsmithonlin-20).
