8:33Now PlayingBoy, Republicans are really mad that people are talking about Dylan Roof and how he was a right-winger, conservative, and racist. He used the confederate flag as a symbol. All those things are indisputably true.

Even by the standards of fury Bill O’Reilly unleashes routinely on The O’Reilly Factor, the thunderbolts he’s hurtled over the past two nights on Fox News have been especially impressive. One night after shouting over one of the channel’s house-liberals, Kirsten Powers, on the subject of systemic racism in America, O’Reilly bellowed a challenge to his perceived foes on Wednesday evening. “You want a war? You got a war!” said O’Reilly, his earthy baritone raising in volume like that of a great opera singer. What would this war be about, you ask?
O’Reilly’s lead-off segment, his patented “Talking Points Memo,” was titled “Demonizing America As A Racist Nation.” In it, he said he believes some on the "far left” — O’Reilly never says “left”; it’s always the “far left,” as opposed to regular guest Bernard Goldberg, who calls liberals “the hard left” — are promoting the idea that “white Americans are actively trying to keep black Americans down."
In the wake of recent events such as the murderous massacre that occurred in Charleston, South Carolina, and the riots in Baltimore following the death of Freddie Gray, O’Reilly has commented more frequently on this notion that, as he put it on Wednesday, "far-left smear merchants have the nerve to say that America is a white supremacist nation."
