    Like that would makes any sense whatsoever.

    Sounds more like a 'Fuck Off' present.

    :EDIT:

    Oh, to be mean, he would only get a bonus like that so morons like you would hold that O'Reilly is still a conservative saint, only doing Gods will.

    Except it wasn't a bribe. It was a severance payment. O'Reilly was fired. Severance payments are not uncommon. As I understand it O'Reilly has a one year non-compete agreement. I'm not sure how his podcasts fit in here. But if his podcasts violate his non-compete agreement, he won't be keeping his severance.

    I wasn't commenting on the quality of any particular contribution of excrement, (to be clear though, mine doesn't stink) only that if you provide a place in a forum for members to shit, they will rightfully take the opportunity to pinch a loaf.
    No, that tells you they were contractually obligated to compensate him to end his contract.

    Men do not normally sexually harass women who are not dressed, provocatively. There is a correlation between sex appeal by women and sexual advances by men. This is the nature of the human dating ritual. As an experiment, if all the women in the office were without makeup and all were wearing over sized potato sacks, most of the men would ignore them. To change the experiment, if one of the woman was put on makeup and wear a tight skirt and blouse, she will get the most attention by the most men. Men are easy to induce because sex is on their mind. If all the women started to wear makeup and sexy clothes, then the men are even more distracted, with some men over reacting to the collective inducement; called harassment.

    If a woman is made to feel uncomfortable, for any reason in the work place, she can file a grievance. If a male does not wish to be induced by women, because it makes him uncomfortable, in terms of what he might do, he is not allowed to complain. There is dual standard in the work place, where men can file a grievance but only if they file based on what bothers women.

    FOX and Friends, the morning show, was so named because the hostess was a fox; sexy. FOX, like most News Programs, purposely chooses intelligent women, who are also pretty and sexy; foxes, with short skirts, to induce the audience, with men now more likely to watch news.

    Say, hypothetically, the law changes and men are allowed to complain about being induced, if they feel uncomfortable, by the sexy dress of women, anywhere where harassment is considered a crime. The secretary would need to doll down to plain Jane. All the women who would be afraid of complaints, and would also have to doll down. Women may not feel comfortable going from work to lunch or dinner in their potato sack. They would not be able to use the same clothes to work and make friends at the bar after work.

    In this plane Jane workplace, the men will not give the women the attention they like. Guys will treat women like other men and compete with them, instead of trying to be nicer, with the underlying hope the inducement game and niceness leads to something more than work. Harassment occurs when men move to fast to the hopeful conclusion induced by the woman. It is not supposed to have a happy ending, just foreplay that helps the women.

    Another way to look at this is with an alternate scenario. Say a male worker in the office gets his pistol permit. He can now legally carry his weapon anywhere including work. For convenience, he wears the gun in a holster across his heart, where he has fast and easy access. He is the same person as before, everyone knows and likes. However, that one object he is wearing can make many people feel uncomfortable; induced fear. This inducement can translate to people feelings uncomfortable with him, because his choice to wear the gun scares them. He is not trying to scare or induce anyone to fear. He wears the gun to appease his own fear of being mugged. However, many will nevertheless be induced to fear, due to how they associate guns. He likes all his co-workers and would not hurt anyone in the office, but that does not matter.

    Say this looks cool, to the other men and they decide to get guns and wear them to work. Some do this for personal security reasons, while some do this to get attention, even if negative attention. This will crank up the fear inducement, since it adds more variables. Instead of saying hello to you when they pass you in the hall, like before, the fear object makes some react to you like you have done something wrong, which you have not done. Some people will are very angry at you, for doing nothing other more than dress with a gun, to where you may feel the need to use the gun, for your own protection from them.

    If the people were not allowed to complain, about the inducement of fear, connected to the gun, this could get out of control. If they can complain, because which they can't seem to control how they feel, the work place would be calmer, and less likely to escalate to something bad.

    1) Lose the commas - you misfire with them continually.
    2) Your planet sounds nice, but ours is set up somewhat differently.
    3) Whether or not Bill O'Reilly is normal would be for another thread.

    He should sue the Roman Catholic School Board. It's absurd that students can wear skirts but not carry guns.

    Beverly Hills Whatnow? Click for a li'l somethin' far less profane than Pat Robertson's unbelievable rape fantasy.

    Sex fantasy as political argumentation is nothing new↱.

    Neither is it particularly useful, except maybe in the context of a Kinsley gaffe, but even then as you're not telling us anything new; it's just kind of a creepy glimpse into a very unfortunate aspect of the human condition.

    Never fear wellwisher - Pence has your back (you choose how to interpret that : ) :

    Mike Pence Proposes Funding for Therapy to Curb Sexual Urges

    By Diane de Anda, April 23, 2017

    Aid for men who can’t control themselves around women needed, says Pence

    It now appears that Vice President Mike Pence may have had something else in mind, other than conversion therapy for gays, when he made this statement on his year 2000 congressional campaign website: “Resources should be directed toward those institutions which provide assistance to those seeking to change their sexual behavior.”

    Mike PenceBased on information provided anonymously from one of the Vice President’s staff, his main concern was providing services for men who have a hard time controlling their sexual urges in the presence of women. The aide mentioned that the Vice President has referred to these individuals as an ignored and spiritually tortured demographic.

    The aide emphasized the great passion and empathy the Vice President has for this group, given his own struggles. He related a recent incident in which a young woman entered a room where the Pence was sitting alone helping himself to a doughnut and coffee. In answer to the his cries for help, the aide rushed into the room and found Mr. Pence sitting very rigid and covered in a cold sweat.

    Once the aide entered the room, his composure became more relaxed, and he asked the aide to join him until he was able to stand up. When the aide reminded him he had a meeting in five minutes, Pence pulled out his cell phone and called his wife. “I’ll be ready to go as soon as I hear her voice,” he said.
