Yeah, well, you know what they say: you lie down with O'Reilly, you wake up with... some festering shit or other.

And I've got a peaceful, greasy feeling...

Nothing like a metaphor for your approach to journalism coming home to roost.

Note to bedbugs: please concentrate your efforts on chewing the faces off the Fox and Friends morning show hosts, preferably while they're on the air. I want to horrify some whitebread reactionary viewers into a coma.

I'm thinking the least injurious thing you could catch from those fucktards is bedbugs.

Next plague, frogs.

But they already got rid of their vermin infestation. [www.huffingtonpost.com] Apparently Rat-Man can disparage women, gays, and minorities, say the most mind-blowingly stupid shit, and chew on the drywall, but if he makes fun of an actor playing a gay man, it's lights out!

Hey, a fellah can dream can't he?

@Botswana Meat Commission FC: That's where the bedbugs are breeding -- in his hair!

The Post had a story a couple of weeks ago about bedbugs being a problem in NYC hotels as well.

My sympathies go out to the bed bugs. It's bad enough being a parasite but to be a parasite that has bitten Hannity's ass takes you a step or two lower down the chain.

Just in case they bit O'Reilly, someone get those bedbugs some amoxicillin!

Slate's media columnist (I think) recently did a story on the media's love of "Bedbugs are back!" stories. So I'm assuming Fox News imported the bedbugs deliberately, just to get a story out of it that they could blame on a greasy foreigner. And they'll probably question why Barack Obama has yet to denounce bedbugs.

FOX is morphing into the very "Itchy and Scratchy Show" it created. Soon we will all be morphing into TV shows, like in that weird Cronenberg movie, "Videodrome."

@ManchuCandidate: Better yet, crabs.

...the exterminator must have had a hell of time distinguishing which parasites to kill.

@queeraselvis: Technically, they are a "bed bug." Just ask Chris Dodd:

Parasites and vermin--the perfect pairing.

Porr things are going to die of starvation the next time Coulter appears on Hannity and Colmes.

What? Did they ask for a paycheck? How did Fox know?

@Cape Clod: That's perfect! But Ann the Exterminator wouldn't bother with letting the little buggers starve. She'd actually suck the blood out of the bed bugs, as any good vampiric parasite would.

In my day job, I run a little boutique hotel in Washington state and the New Yorkers calling to make reservations always give a warm chuckle when I scream "WELL DON'T BRING ANY OF THOSE GODDAM BEDBUGS WITH YOU WHEN YOU COME OUT HERE, ALRIGHT?" at them.

Cosmopolitan travelers always a appreciate a sample of the local color.

@Darehead: can i morph into bullwinkle then? i do live in frostbite falls minnesota. caveat: not in the baby farmers district thankfully.

You call them bedbugs. I call them Young Republicans in pupal form.

sounds like the yippies are back. remember those merry pranksters from the 70's? yeah abbie & jerry were speed freaks, but who cares? nothing but the best for our friends at fox....what's next, fleas?

Karma's a bitch.

Yes, but is this an act of TERRORISM? Someone will surely find out, but in the meantime, we'll go LIVE and scrawl BREAKING NEWS!! and speculate about the terrorist connection!
Think of the ratings!
